Walked in for a pedicure. This place is exactly what I want from my strip mall nail salon. Good energy. Clean and calm. No hard upsell on services. All the colors and plenty of OPI. The massage chairs work. Foot bath started too hot, but easily and quickly fixed. read more

A few months ago my cousin had flawless nails and I asked her where she went, she told me she saw Cindy here and I booked an appointment immediately !!! I've never looked back. She does exactly what I want, every time, flawlessly. Now I treated myself to a pedi with Tom recently and he did NOT disappoint. The massage was to DIE for and he will do extra time for a small price as well - my feet feel like they're floating and the plantar fasciitis pain I used to have regularly is completely gone. I rave about this place to everyone who compliments my nails (which they do regularly)!! Can't recommend it enough! read more

Cindy is a nail magician!!! I came in, without an appointment, having horribly damaged nails from glue on nails (don't do it) asking for help. She listened to my concerns about salon nails looking so fake and horrible on me in the past (something between a super thick ski ramp mixed with a beaver tail). She reassured me and explained exactly how she could fix the condition of my nails while also making them look beautiful and natural. Then- Cindy did my nails exactly HOW SHE SAID SHE WOULD and they are perfect!!! I am super happy with the results and am thankful for how knowledgeable, professional and kind Cindy was! I would absolutely recommend Royal Nails and Cindy! read more

Made an appointment the night before. We got there and were seated right away. Kaitlyn did such a wonderful job on my gel French tip manicure. I will definitely be going back. My boyfriend also came with and got a pedicure. We just put "men's pedicure" in the appointment we booked online. It was the best! They spent so much time removing the calluses and trimming his nasty toenails. His feet are the smoothest they've ever been! Definitely my new go-to nail place! read more

Nice people. Was able to make an appointment next day. But I wouldn't come back here. The lady doing my nails was sick. Coughing a lot. They pressured me quite a bit to get a pedicure but I kept politely declining. I showed the nail tech a picture of what I wanted and my end result was not close to what I wanted. Some of my nails are not even. It's been a week exactly since getting them done and my thumb is already chipping. read more

Nail polish bottle was old and grimy. No rubber shoes provided between pedicure and manicure. Polish did not adhere properly. Soaking bowls were tiny metal butter cups. Left unattended for long periods before pedicure and manicure despite being on time for appointment. Shop is dusty and unkempt. read more

After going to countless places for nail services over the years, I'm SO happy to find Cindy!! I've been seeing her for over 7 years and won't let anyone else touch my nails. Her level of work is quick, clean and professional. She is also really knowledgeable and accommodating, coming in early or staying late if needed. She also makes great suggestions on which colors look best and brings quality and consistency every visit. Cindy's never disappointed and feels like family to me, as we've built a strong relationship over the years! A+ salon! read more

I haven't had my nails done at a salon in 2 years. Cindy did a coffin tip gel powder full set with white tip nail art (photo posted) and I am in LOVE. I can't wait to get a fill and change up the nail art - she is amazing!! read more

The absolute best pedicure I've ever had in my 40 years, and the kindest staff I've met at a spa/salon. My daughter and I were treated like family from the moment we walked in. They use only the highest quality products and have the product and industry knowledge to show it. This is the only place I will go from here on out. read more

What a beautiful, clean and friendly shop! There is a NEW OWNER, who is absolutely the best. Cindy does a great job and doesn't try to "upsell" you on anything. My pedicure (long overdue) was perfection and I love my gel manicure. She is adamant about treating her customers well and giving them a great experience. She has remodeled the space and it is truly beautiful and CLEAN! If you used to go to the "old" Royal Nails, you must give this a try. Highly recommend! read more

Have been here several times since the new owners took over (last year?) and every time the couple do a terrific job on my pedicures! The husband has great foot reflexology skills and his wife is talented at the painting, foot care and design. Both are very warm people! Our new favorite place to go for spa mani and pedis! Very clean, and great massage chairs too! We'll be back! read more

I've been getting my nails done at this salon for about eight years now. Ever since the first time I went in there I have never found a nail salon that can clean my feet of dead dry skin and calluses and give me a pedicure that lasts forever other than this place. No matter where I've lived I've always gone back when I needed a pedicure. Every now and then when I don't have the ability to go back I try somewhere new and I'm always disappointed. At this salon they take your third time and you get your moneys worth at a great price read more

I absolutely love coming to see Cindy every month to get a fill! I drive over a half an hour to see her. I have had acrylics for 2 years, and Cindy has been doing them for 1 1/2 and i've never had better nails! read more

The guy doing my nails definitely took his time & i 1000% appreciate it, however, a DAY after i got my nails done 3 of them broke. Next day, a 4th one. Doing very simple activities that would not break a nail. I'm very dissatisfied & disappointed. Never once have i broke a nail SO soon after getting them done. They were extremely brittle. read more

LOVE this place! I've been a few times now and every time my nails look great. Great service, the people that work there are so nice. They offer Venmo for payment, which I think is really convenient. This is now my go-to nail salon! read more

Cindy at Royal Nails is the best!! My nails and toes are always perfect!! I drive over a 1/2 hour to see her because I haven't found anyone closer that can do such an excellent job as she does. The salon is modern, clean and cute. And the entire staff is wonderful! Very kind, and extra accommodating to my 10 year old son who needed to tag along. Excellent place! read more

Friendly? Well....perhaps. But, communication issues abound! I agree that they mostly chatter amongst themselves continously in Vietnamese and it can get really loud. Lots of shortcuts here. MN state cosmetology boards require that salons DO NOT reuse disposable items on patrons, such as emery boards and filing blocks, but this salon does it consistantly! They use the same filing item on me as the previous customers. They use metal tools and DO NOT sterilze them between customers, but, put them in the drawer of a rolling cart and they all repeatedly dip from the same large product jar of skin scrub when doing pedicures. They drain and "clean" the pedicure tubs by spraying with "scrubbing bubbles" bathroom cleaner. All these practices are NOT SANITARY and unlawful! The man who "works" there is the husband of the owner. Not even sure if he is licenced or professionally trained to provide services, but he will do pedicures on clients when they are really busy and staffed sparsely. They will start on a new client and ask a current client to wait to be finished so as not to loose business, especially if you are there for both manicure and pedicure. Their pedicure chairs are equipped supposedly with multi-function massage action, but only 1 out of 5 chairs actually works fully, most are in need of maintenence to repair their functions. If you try to pay by credit card... they ask if you have a check instead. Then they ask you to make the check out to the owner's last name... NOT to the business. Pretty shady if you ask me. The state board should investigate. They are happy and friendly and very chatty, but, YOU are the minority if you don't speak Vietnamese here. TIP: Bring your own tools and polish. read more

Ok. I'm only doing one star because I haven't landed in the hospital from this visit, but my daughter and I each had our nails done and will not be back. For one, if you try to make conversation, forget it. I believe they speak English here but pretend they don't which is fine but we were asking for the tv channel to be changed from football and even with our hand signals it felt like they had no idea what we were saying... then when they wanted the tip, the nails had not been done yet (I know this is normal but if my hands are dry I don't mind digging for money), we gave them 20% (more than fair... especially when the job is not finished) and the look on their faces was as if it was an insult to them. I TOTALLY don't get that!! Come on! Raise your prices and stop people from even entering your salon if you feel like that. I'm going to include a picture of one of our hands as we can still see our finger tips as the coat of nail polish was much much much too light on our hands. It was not a clear polish by any means! It was supposed to be greyish. Even when I'm at home I'll run two swipes over my nails... not here when you're paying for it! read more

My daughter was playing ball at the high school so I had one hour. Without even asking her to go fast she gave me the best manicure I've ever had in less than 30 min. read more

made an appointment for 2pm for two pedicures. we walk in at 1:55 to pick out our colors. We were sat at 2:10, then proceeded to wait for over 45 minutes. We made the appointment so I could get to work on time and ended up running late because it took them over an hour to get to us. This isn't the first time this has happened either. its super frustrating to make an appointment for a certain time, then wait over an hour to actually be seen. What's the point of making an appointment if your going to make us wait for over an hour? If they would of called us back and say hey we are running behind, can you come later- of course. But making us wait in cold water- no. Super disappointed read more

I went here for a gel manicure at the last minute. Not only did they fit me in right away but they were friendly, offered me a drink when I sat down, efficient and did a great job on my nails! I definitely recommend them. The facility was clean, relaxing and has been in that current location for over 20 years. They know what they're doing and they do it well! read more

The only reason this place gets even one star is because they were nice. The girl hurried through my manicure ( there wasn't anyone waiting) and now there is polish in the crevices and on my skin. The polish was unevenly put on my nails, and now I have to go to a wedding with a manicure that looks like a child did it. Can't believe I paid 35 dollars for this, and I am so embarrassed. read more

Great service. No wait. Very clean and the staff was very pleasant. Price is right. I'll come back!

As usual, IMHO ~ They give 5 Star ( ) Service. I'm doing the 'Royal Pedicure', and it's absolutely worth the small up-charge. Dan is the Man! When it comes to 'guiding' me in the right direction, as to what's needed as far as services they offer. The staff here are All Amazing; kind, courteous, friendly and professional!! I highly recommend this place if you ever need a Mani and/or Pedi. read more

I really enjoy going there. they always greet me with a hug, bring me diet coke with a straw. I believe the work they do is so great. My nails always bring a lot of compliments from people that notice them. I am older and they are so helpful and caring. I think they are the greatest. marilyn read more

The woman here are so kind and customer service oriented. They are not the cleanest or have the best hand massage, but my nails look nice and they make sure you like them before you leave. Once I even didn't have the right card and she let me leave and come back and pay in the morning! They are also pretty fast;) read more

Yeah, not so much. They do good work, but they are SO LOUD! I mean, I get talking with one another while you are working, but holy. They are speaking in their native language so loudly to each other (I've been there at least 7 times, as they are close to my home) that you can;t manage to read a magazine, hear what's going on on the tv or just simply ...relax. Which is what a nail spa is suppose to be about, is it not? I've actually requested that they turn up the TV so I could hear some important breaking news, and they seem oblivious to any such maneuvers or complaints. Even businesses nearby have asked me what I thought & when I mentioned the noise, they've said "Oh yeah, we hear that a lot about them". There is one gal in there that is just rowdy & raucous & could seemingly give a crap about her clients' experience while there. Again, good work on the nails - and 'Ti' is the best - as she is the only one who is actually quiet & doesn't contribute to the non-stop native language chatter, but I'm sorry - its just plain rude to talk over, around & (probably) about your American customers in your native tongue, loudly, for 1.5 hrs, consistently. A definite serenity-buster, I will be taking the extra time to drive elsewhere, as it just isn't worth the $50 - $75 I pay once every 2 weeks. Oh, and the owner/manager plays the typical, male role of marching authoritatively up & down the aisle 'checking on' the ladies who are doing all the work, while never lifting a finger (in the 7 times I've been there, at least) himself. Blech. read more

I don't understand why Yelp has filtered out all the positive reviews. I've had a great experience and I continue coming back!

I've been going to Mary's shop for a few years now. Whenever I stray to another shop, I quickly return because Royal Nails is so much superior. The staff is friendly, speak clearly, and provide very good service. Mary makes a point of remembering your name and greeting/thanking you at each visit. I love that she makes that effort because it makes me feel special! read more
