Clean salon and great color selection but that is about it. Being someone who has gotten their nails done for over ten years, I can confidently say that this salon is overpriced and the service takes longer than it should: 2.5 hours for a basic pedicure and dip it manicure. Also, at the register there was an additional $5 added to my total because she had to remove my previous nail color before my new manicure. Really?? I will not be going here again. read more

quite literally the best gel manicure i've ever had. i'm so sad i'm not in town anymore to get one next time i need it. also only $35 when usually gel color is $40 min. (so plus tip, that's a huge difference) she did such an amazing job of painting the whole nail, whereas so many manicurists miss the sides. i highly recommend rio nails!!!! read more

They charge a fee to take off gel, even when getting a gel manicure....ridiculous! It's a $5 charge and $35 for a gel manicure!!! $40 for a gel manicure!! Completely absurd. I even called before I went and no one bothered to ask me if I already had gel or to mention the fee to take off gel. I've NEVER had any other place charge to take off gel when you're getting gel again, NEVER. Just charge $40 then as your list price, that way I never would have bothered going in the first place. There's plenty of other more reasonable priced, and better over all service salons around. My nail technician also cut my cuticle so bad it wouldn't stop bleeding. I will NEVER be back to this place. What a terrible experience. read more

it was my first time here, they were super impatient and unprofessional!! i will never come back here again. they charged 20 dollars for a 8 year old to get her nails painted, grabbed their polish samples out of my hand while i was trying to pick my color, and took money out of my wallet while my nails were drying. read more

Rio Nails - bubble, bad nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Rio Grande, New Jersey

Nice thin acrylic nails. I have been to other places locally, but none are as flawless as these. I always go for a stiletto shape which can look horrible with a bulky application, mine surprisingly looks like a natural coated in sache vite read more

I went to Rio Nails in Rio Grande for a manicure /pedicure today and I could not understand the male associate that waited on me. I thought he understood that all i wanted was just a plain manicure and pedicure which it appears i did get but the bill was 60.00. I should have said something but I did agree to what he was telling me. He must have used a more expensive polish because nothing was different than I have had in the past. Please confirm price in the beginning like I will do in the future. read more

Amazing! The environment was beautiful and the people are so nice and attentive! I didn't feel like I was getting rushed even though it was busy. They took there time and made sure that they did a great job! I would 100% come back here again! read more

Horrible experience. Staff are so very rude, nasty and miserable. The pedicure sucked so very bad and I couldn't stand the grouchy attitude anymore so I told her never mind the manicure. She said she's going to charge me $10 since she soaked my nails already. I said "no problem." I really just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. I was charged $50 for terrible pedicure and ruining my day! read more

The salon adds a sense of luxury to the area. They're priced slightly higher than the surrounding salons but the quality of services rendered is more than satisfactory. The salon has seemed to improve over the past couple of years. Staff members appear to be rather knowledgeable regarding the services they are required to do and tend to offer other alternatives, whether cheaper or more expensive, as well as more appropriate in accordance to your everyday activities or repetitive habits which may better suit your needs. Staff members often push extra services but due to current economical situations, I would be too for the extra buck. They should, however, silence or lower their phones upon servicing customers. Being on the phone; whether texting or talking should not be allowed. Shows unprofessionalism and unhealthy for growth. read more

I've never had a worse experience at a nail salon in my life!! To start some friends and I had made appointments the day before and there were not enough staff to accommodate us. Not to mention the other clients that ALSO had appointments at that same time!! The staff did not apologize as we stood around waiting without enough seats! One by one staff began to show up and rudely spoke on their phones with their headphones in their ears. Since they didnt put on any music we were forced to listen to their conversations...guess they don't want music drowning out the volume of their headsets! When it was finally my turn I had a man who gave me the most painful manicure of my life. Roughly pushing & cutting my cuticals til I bled. I told him several times I did NOT want him filing my nails which he ignored!! I told him I did not want him to continue to the other hand and he acted shocked and annoyed. He pretended to understand me but either did not or just flat out didnt care. I believe it was the later. Even though I came in with his previous client he did NOT clean his station after her before waiting on me!! My hands sat on the towel amongst her nail clippings and who knows who else's. the place was filthy and I hope I don't get an infection!! Afterwards I still tipped him $5...on a $20 crappy painful manicure...over 20% which he seemed ungrateful and insulted by. He deserved nothing. The manicure chipped that day! My cuticals are still sore and red!! I will NEVER go back and I will tell everyone I possibly can how awful it is there. read more

unfortunatelly you cannot give them ZERO STARS OR I WOULD HAVE! This place ruined pedicures for me! They gave me an infection and my toe nail fell off!! It's been three and half years and it STILL HASNT GROWN BACK PROPERLY! Dont go here !! read more

In the area on vacation wanted to get a pedi without waiting. Luckily there was no line but I understand why. Only got a regular pedi but the lady sat down to help me and went on the phone with headphones in so she couldn't hear me when I said I wanted the water warmer. She sped through the pedi and used rough paper towels to dry my feet/legs off. Place is a rip off if you're going to charge $30 for a regular pedicure at least use a damn washcloth. read more

Rude! Over priced services! I went in for a gel manicure and toe polish change. My nail tech was a male and he did not say one word to me the entire time. While doing my nails, he received and made several cellphone calls to "My Honey." He would have lengthy conversations across the room in his native language with his coworkers even though they all speak English. The coversations were so loud and lengthy that the other customers were looking around the room in disbelief. For a gel manicure, I was charged 5.00 for him to remove my polish! 15.00 for toenail polish! I should have went for the whole pedicure! $55.00 for gel manicure and polish change plus 10.00 tip and he couldn't even utter a "thank you." Overall, the workmanship was just ok. RUDE RUDE RUDE. This establishment deserves 0 stars. read more

I used to enjoy coming here but the person I saw left this salon. I have gone 3 times here recently and had 3 different people do my gel mani. I feel rushed every time and I get charged different prices when I'm getting the exact same service each time. I will go elsewhere from now on. read more

Weirdest pedicure ever! I don't even know what he did to my feet. This picture is what my feet looked like after pedicure, with clumps of lotion all over them and my legs. He sprayed my feet with a spray bottle like 10 times each, rubbed my toes with a pumice stone for the longest time for no reason, told me he will not get my ingrown toes nails, and generally took forever. Will not be returning read more

Never again!!!! Burned every nail getting the gel polish off and she could have cared less. Filed the nails about 15 different times to where my nails are now paper thin. When I was paying I asked three times how much $ and she finally says "ummmm for you $45." Are u kidding me? For a gel manicure that was so painful. I normally pay $30 and tip $10-15. I gave her a $5 and felt bad cause even though my experience was awful, I'm not one to give a cheap tip but for the price she charged me I soon got over it. Very unprofessional and it was so quiet, no music and the news was on mute. The station was not sanitized not even the tools they use. I've been here a few other times only because my regular salon was closed. every time I get burned or infections around my nails but where I normally go is only open Friday's and Saturdays during the winter and I couldn't wait another week. Shame on me for making this mistake again. I hate how we can't give zero stars read more

My daughter's wedding party of 10 went to Rio Nails on 6/3/16 for pedicures and gel manicures. We were all happy with the results! The staff was welcoming and everything went very smoothly. I highly recommend this business! read more

The last two times I was there, the nail technician scrubbed the bottom of my foot so hard that I started bleeding. They took $10 off the pedicure. The last time I was there the technician wanted me to pay before I even left. The owner told me she was very busy and needed to collect my credit card right away. I was still under the dryer. I did not feel comfortable giving her my credit card without me being there. I don't think I will go there ever again. read more

This nail salon has the worst customer service! Went with a group of girls to get manicures/pedicures and when they spilled nail polish on one girls shirt, they not only refused to let her pedicure be complimentary, but nobody even took responsibility for ruining the shirt. Would not recommend! read more
