    Green toes two weeks old.
    Cleo C.

    My friend and I went for a mani/pedi. I had called to make an appointment. It was a Monday afternoon, it was pretty quiet in there. Tommy had a customer. We received great service. Van took her time on my feet and nails. This is the second time I've been here. It was a relaxing hour. They are very professional.

    Mixed feelings. My first visit here was great. Tom was amazing with my pedicure. That was Aug of 2022 . I returned May 2023 for a second try and my gel manicure started chipping after a few days And the crew didn't seem like they were happy to be there. I felt like a burden.

    Great sterile and socially distant outside nail salon!
    Jasmine M.

    During the pandemic, we all have been trying to adapt to the quarantine life. That being said, I'm from Tulare County and all the nail salons are closed and I desperately needed a pedicure due to my ingrown toenails! My boyfriend and I were heading to Pismo for my annual birthday beach trip and I looked at nail salons in the San Luis Obispo County area since the lockdown rules weren't AS strict as Tulare County. If a nail salon can operate outside safely, they can continue "business as usual". Cut to calling around the Pismo, Grover, and Avila beach area and I came across Top Nails! Not only were they open, had great reviews, BUT they were operating outside! The employees wore a mask, the customers must wear a mask. We are seated 6 ft apart with plastic dividers between the customers and the employees. After each customer leaves, they take the time to sterilize their station before the next customer sits down. It IS by appointment only and allowing 4 people or less at a time. Overall, I was VERY pleased with the deluxe pedicure I got. The staff are very nice and quick without sacrificing quality. My pedicure was very relaxing even though it was outside. They are kinda tucked away in a strip mall type of place so you didn't get heavy foot traffic with people walking by staring at you. Amidst the scare of COVID-19, I felt very safe here! I will definitely come back and drive allll the way from Visalia to Grover to get my pedicures if this pandemic doesn't let up soon. The $40 Deluxe Pedicure has all the basics of a standard spa pedicure but they added the paraffin wax, callous removal, salt (or maybe it was a sugar scrub) while they massaged your feet and calves. Can't forget the hot towels and HOT STONE MASSAGE! Ahh my favorite part! I explained it to my boyfriend like this "After I get a pedicure, it feels like my feet can BREATHE again!" Thank you, Top Nails for kicking off my birthday weekend just right! ‼NOTE‼ They are accepting CASH ONLY right now.

    Very nice people they took a party of 4 for a last minute pedicure/manicure appointment with 30 minute heads up. They have a huge variety of gel colors including the cat eyes, mood changing polish and fur/fiber gels

    Stopped in Sunday afternoon if hopes of 2 pedicures ... SO pleasantly surprised thay we wound up with 2 beautiful pedi, an eye brow wax and a painless and thorogh nail removal! A bit pricey bit very happy with the results, cleanliness and customer service provided! And on a Sunday!!!

    Tom did an amazing job with my acrylics
    Anjana T.

    I got my nails done by Tom and he was very nice throughout the process. I asked for his opinion for a couple colors and he was honest and vert helpful. I got a filling for acrylic nails and before the tip they charged $45 which is a very reasonable price for the quality of work and customer service experience.

    Tom does my nails and I have yet to be disappointed. He does a fabulous job. My nails don't lift or break, EVER!

    Van was so sweet!!! She paid attention to detail with my nails... And so reasonably priced!!! I was very satisfied and the establishment was very clean... Would definitely recommend!!!

    Matching nails

    My boyfriend and I were a walk in today at the salon and they were more than willing to take care of us immediately. The staff were so kind and patient with us. Very friendly employees and awesome service. We also love having matching nails which was something new and different for both of us. We couldn't be happier with our experience. Thank you Top Nails!

By the time we were seated it was pushing 3:20. One person started working on my feet, while the person I was there with just sat in the chair. Another 20 minutes goes by and no one had even come over to help. The person doing my toes went off to help someone with a transaction. In that time 3 more people came in for appointments, still with no one to help them. At that point we decided to cut our losses and leave. So we spent 40 minutes doing nothing. I got my toe nail polish off and toenails trimmed, that's it. The person I went with had no service done at all. No one really seemed to care that we weren't being helped or that we walked out. The person doing my toes did apologize but otherwise it felt like they didn't care and they had put us in the chairs only to keep us there not to serve us. I'm incredibly disappointed as I've had great experiences here before, but being treated that way, with an appointment is unacceptable. If you didn't have enough people to serve us, tell us that. I would have happily come later in the day or at a different time instead of being treated like that. Unfortunately we won't be returning.

    Let me start out by saying I was on vacation in Pismo when I decided to get my nails done. My toe…read morenails were getting long and my fingernails were snagging on everything. I walked in and asked if they had time for a mani - pedi, "oh yes... pick your color". I then decided as I was sitting in the chair for my feet that I would just go ahead and ask if I could get a full set on my nails. Why not? I'm on vacation. When i mentioned my change in plans I was told there was only 1 person that could do a full set. And she was booked for the next 2 hours. Maybe I could come back in 2-3 hours or tomorrow? Uh. N O ... This was disappointing. So now I sit in the chair knowing I'm only going to get half of what I really want. I'm a tad annoyed, but try to enjoy my pedicure. My big toe has a tip and acrylic on it as I wear boots for work and the nail was halfway through the process of growing back from falling off. I asked the tech if she could file it and fill it and she chose to do what she wanted to do, file it and paint it. There was no fill. What the....?? Anyways, my nails are now drying and in comes 4 more people. More pedicures and more waiting. 45 minutes later I'm still sitting there apparently waiting for my nails to dry and nothing being done to my fingernails as there aren't any additional techs to do it. Finally I apologize for interrupting my neighbor's services and tell the tech I am done sitting there and express that surely my nails are more than dry. I get up, pay for my services and am asked if I have cash.... No. I don't carry cash, most people don't carry cash and a lot of places outside of nail salons don't want cash. Oh and by the way, i'm tipping on the card. Just ring me up so I can leave. This event that was supposed to be relaxing has turned out to be more of an annoyance than anything. I was not fully satisfied with my service and I don't think I'll go to this establishment again. Needless to say, I went to Rite Aid next door and bought a nail file, nail clippers, fingernail polish and did my own damn nails. With that said, I will give myself 5 stars for keeping my cool, rolling with what cards I have been dealt and possibly saving myself $50.

The staff were very friendly and the shop is very clean. I don't usually sit in nail salon waiting, the owner Angela was there and took very good care of me.

There was also a gentleman, I believe his name was Nate at the front desk, he engaged me in pleasant conversations about the Grover Beach area while I waited. Very good customer service. I don't know a lot about manicures, but my wife was very happy with her technician Tiffani !!

I told him I only needed a pedicure and how much he told me $35 sold ! It took about an hour the guy who took care of my feet , his name was Michael, he talked me into getting the gel since I did not wear sandals, this way the polish would dry immediately. I saw the menu price list hanging from his cart so I asked for the $40 deluxe +15 so I figure 55 bucks when I went to pay they charged me $65 and still asked for a tip. He did a great job so I didn't feel pressured for a tip when I was paying, I was not thinking or adding it up in my head until we we walked outside. The next time I'll get it in writing ha ha ha. It was a really good service experience massage my name my feet my feet with his hands and I guess to loosen them up? A hot stone treatment, hot towels etc .As a custodian on my feet I appreciate this,my feet felt wonderful and relaxed. All in all I would recommend them. The only reason I gave them four stars was because of the price mixup or not. Good music playing in the background.
