Usually I'm satisfied with my nails and I don't ask for much when I get my nails done however, this time they turned out okay. Although, it was a busy Saturday they were able to take me early- evening about 4:30ish. I got an acrylic fill and on their info card says it's about 15 however I paid a full price of a new set (25-30)... as one of the ladies was doing my nails she was sanding down the old set with the machine and chipped my left thumb and second finger on the sides of the left hand and she took the chipped parts off and fixed it... however how is she gonna break it and then charge me for a fix. A nail fix is $5 per nail. Then after she used the nail machine to cut off my real nails that were grown out underneath.. but there not even, so if I were to take them off my really nails would be uneven... she didn't even tell me she was charging me for the fixes. read more

Went here for the first time today. My wife got a pedicure and I got a full set of shillac nails. First off they hardly worked on my wife's feet. She might as well not have gotten one at all! Last minute she asked for her fingernails to be painted and they said they would charge her $3 more and ended up charging us a full $35 for a regular mani and pedi which she did not get! I got my nails done by an older lady and she hurt me so badly that my nails are still throbbing! I asked for a coffin shape and she filled my right thumb so much that she went into the nail bed which I screamed OUCH! Twice over and she still kept doing it. She also kept pushing my cuticles back although I was telling her they couldn't go back any further and that it hurt! I complained and I only got an eye roll and $5 off. An apology would have been greatly appreciated!! DO NOT GO HERE!! They are horrible!! I also looked at them a little better once I got home and 3 of them are cracked! I could only get a good picture of one because of the shine on the nails. At least they got that right read more

What I wanted vs what I got. These pictures were taken the NEXT DAY after getting them done. I've had my nails done before in the past by many different nail techs but never had I had a manicure so horribly done. I had to get them redone somewhere else, and that person told me I still had a bunch of cuticle left and my nails weren't straight! Never going to Top Nail. The owner is horrible and none of the nail people there, with the exception of a younger lady there (I think she's the owner's daughter), know how to do nails. You're better off spending money elsewhere. Thanks for reading! Save yourself, nails, and money by NOT going to this place. read more

Worst gal manicure ever. It didn't last even a week!! When I get my nails done, I hope that it would last AT LEAST a week. They rushed and had my manicure done in less than 30 minutes. So that means I paid ~1 dollar/min (+tip) for a shitty manicure? (~25 min total). I have had bad experience here before, the technician have been rough, but the quality SUCKS. Dont waste your money. read more

Worst experience..Recently went to give them a second chance because the first time I didn't get what I asked for and got cut on my thumb this second time someone recommended me to "Charlie" and I literally left crying once again. For starters my sister went in for a pedicure they didn't scrub her feet right they didn't even clean her cuticles. Second I had showed him a picture of how I wanted my nails and I got the worse....Never again will I be coming back I also paid 100$ NOT WORTH IT rather go spend that somewhere else. Ended up going to "Angel Nails" and the lady who fixed them did a wonderful job she didn't even charge me!!!! read more

My time and money here was a complete waste! I paid for some "deluxe" pedi for $45 for 45 minutes thinking I was going to receive some sort of pampering and benefits for my feet. First of all, if anything he did put on my feet was going to be beneficial there was no way it had any benefits to my feet!! He literally left the scrub, the mask and the paraffin on my feet for less than a minute!! He completed the pedicure in less than 25 minutes and told me to sit and wait for 15 to 20 minutes to dry! Had I known in that 45 minutes that 20 minutes was to wait and dry I would've never paid for that pedicure. I would've went for the cheapest pedicure. He pretty much should've just painted my toenails. There is no way I will ever return to this place. And I will make sure all my friends and family are aware of this as I am making you aware! PS he wore the same gloves for his next client bc it had my color polish on the gloves. That is so unsanitary! He probably wear the same clothes for me that he wore for his previous client. Never again! read more

This is such a great nail place if you are looking to get in/out quickly and have a no frills experience. I've been here three times and have had a great experience both with mani/pedis and waxing. If you want a super fancy salon, this place is probably not for you, but if you want really nice people, quality service, fast turnaround time and great pricing... then go here. read more

I worked with Susan and she did an incredible job on my fill and repolish. She was not pushy with sales but did give recommendation to gel polish because it does last longer. She did play close attention to making sure my polish was painted neatly and did check in on me when I was drying. Overall this would be my new nail spot. read more

Horrible. I've never been to a worse place. Rudest manager ever. I went in with long nails and needed a fill. I asked the tech for the same shape and to just file a bit so as to keep the length. She completely sawed my nails down to half the length and made them pointy. I almost had to have her remove the set and start over. I hate the way they look and all she said was 'so you want more square?' NO. I WANTED THE SAME SHAPE. My friend was with me and she left with blue polish around her cuticles, some nails only painted partially and a chipped nail literally an hour later. This place is horrible. Do NOT go there. read more

I loved my set but my tech kept $10 of my change/: my total was $65 and I handed her $80 and got back $5. It was my first time there and Im just a little disappointed. Nails were a 10 though/: read more

First and last time I ever come to this place. I forever traumatized and not sure if I'll be scarred on my face from the burn I received from the waxing, but it is amazing they are still in business. Anyone looking for a wax, PLEASE READ! Do not...DO NOT (even if it's an emergency and they are the only place open) get a wax here...I walked in for a mani-pedi and walked out with a burned upper lip when I was talked into a waxing! My nails were decent, but not for $58...prices are steep and they are not waxed experienced! I will post pictures. Stay away from this place. read more

I used to own a nail salon and it kills me that I have to let my daughter come here while she is in school. It is the closest one to her and it was open on Sundays. The list of problems from cleanliness to quality is too lengthy to cover. My teenager said it best, "I could have done a better job with my eyes closed". Mani was exactly 4 minutes long and she didn't use a base coat and forgot to put top coat on two fingers. The pedi was somewhat better. Awful polish collection. And, just not good. Be careful. read more

Crappy service and a crappy nail job. Never been more uncomfortable in my life. The man who did my nails was a total pervert and the way he was touching my hands and feet creeped me the hell out. He asked if I wanted my cuticles trimmed (which I had never before been asked) and assuming that he got the word mixed up with something else, I said no. He laughed at me and said he's doing it any way. Wow, rude and I'm sorry, am I not the one who pays you? He trimmed the actual cuticle and cut me. Then proceeded to be pissed of AT ME for bleeding. Oh, my bad, I must be the only living thing to bleed when my skin is punctured. And then, when my mom came to pay (it was a present for graduating), he cursed at her in Vietnamese (and, I am half Viet, I know what the cuss words are) and stormed out of the store when she only tipped him $3. If I was paying, he wouldn't have gotten a tip at all! Worst experience of my life. How are they even still in business? read more

Walked out of this place with crooked nails, nail polish on the sides of my cuticles, and a CUT FINGER! Yes. The lady who did an awful job not only managed to make my nails look like I did the job myself, but she also managed to cut my finger with the drill bit filer! I came in to get a simple acrylic full set with a simple color (no gel, no designs, nothing fancy), and unfortunately I received the worst job of my life! And this wasn't my first time here! The lady clearly didn't know what she was doing. She started off by placing my hands on a box of tissue to "level my hands", she would literally dip the entire brush into the acrylic powder (even after I asked her to make my nails thin) the excess acrylic was insane! Before she started she asked me if i wanted pink or clear powder, i said clear and she used pink anyway. All of the excess acrylic ended up on the bottom of my nails. She kept tugging on my fingers, pulling them towards her without being gentle whatsoever. She kept stabbing my fingers with her sharp pointy nails. She used her finger tips to try to remove the excess acrylic - it was a mess! I got tissue (from the tissue box) stuck on the wet acrylic and she didn't even bother to take it off immediately. I watched her carefully and some nails were not completely covered with acrylic on the tips. She noticed this herself because she even paused and thought about it for a minute, but didn't bother to fix it. She rushed through the filing! She skinned one finger with the side of the drill bit filer and I flinched. I thought, maybe I'm making her nervous, so I just stared out the window hoping that it would relax her. Well she ended up CUTTING MY FINGER with that stupid drill bit and I yelled "ouch". She didn't apologize she just tugged on my finger some more and kept working. I was so furious by this time I didn't know whether to stop her or let her just hurry and finish. I wanted to cry! When she painted my nails not only did she not paint the sides of my nails but on some fingers she got paint all over my cuticles. After the paint job was done I asked for the manager and explained everything that happened! I showed him how she cut my finger and how crooked and uneven my nails were. He asked me what I wanted, amazed at his reply I said I want you to fix my nails! At the end of this all, another lady helped to reshape, re-file, and repaint my nails. She commented and said that her coworker was lazy. They looked better, but was certainly not what I wanted. The manager didn't charge me, but again, I walked out with crooked - ugly- nails and a cut on my finger. NEVER Again!!!!! TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES FOR YOURSELF! read more

Customer service is a joke! How is it that I get the same things done there yet the prices change every time. Today was it for me, I went in for a Fill/Pedi and ended up getting a rushed 10 minute pedi ($37) and left to sit for an hour waiting for someone to do a fill. Meanwhile I'm watching people that came in after me get serviced and leave. This isn't the first time I've left there unhappy but it will be the last. read more

First time getting my nails done here at this salon and maybe last.. The customer service was not too bad, my nail technician was nice and friendly! I some what got what I asked for, at first I was kinda happy with the final result but after hours later the underneath of my nails looked dirty and messy. I got the clear pink and since my acrylic is clear you can see the messiness caused by the nail glue and acrylic powder. Also my fingers are a bit sore, could be from all the filing with the drill. I recommend because it's an affordable place., but not sure if I would come back read more

I've never posted a negative review in the six years I've been using Yelp. But after my disappointing experience at this salon, I think it important to warn others who are looking for a GOOD gel manicure that lasts. I moved to Monterey last month and was in search of a salon that could do quality gels nails that last up to a month if needed. That is what I'm used to after using 3 salons in the past 8 years of moving. I stopped in Top Nails and was assured they did gels that lasted. Mary did my nails and told me they would last 3 weeks. They looked fantastic. I was charged $28 and gave her a $10 tip. I was thrilled to find Mary and this nail salon! However, after a week, they started chipping. Within 10 days three of my nails were a mess and a couple more on the edge of crumbling. I returned to the salon today and showed the owner my nails, explaining that it wasn't my experience to ever have gels fall apart so quickly, especially since Mary told me they would last 3 weeks. He looked at them and said, "no, our gels only last 7-10 days". In other words, my nails looked how you would expect after 10 days she you get them done at my Salon. I was surprised and said, "well I guess I better find another salon". Who is willing to spend $28 every 7-10 days for nails? As a small business owner myself, I'd hoped his response would have been more along the lines of, "wow, for $28 your nails should last longer. When can you come in so we can take care of this for you. I'm sorry these didn't last as long as they should have and you had to come all the way back here." But in essence his reply implied, "this is the caliber of work we do...and we don't care about keeping your business." Oh well... read more

Price was great for a mani pedi. I also found the salon to be clean & they were able to take me right away. That being said, I will not go back because of the pressure I felt to do additional services. It was WAY too much and to the point I was getting a little uncomfortable & annoyed. She wanted me to do a French and even though I said "no thank you" three times, she still said "let me do one nail so you can see". I still said no after that. Then she kept pressuring me to do gels. I must have said no thank you FIVE times. Then she wanted to do my eyebrows. Again, i had to say no multiple times. The pressure I felt was so intense that I will not go back. read more

I've been getting my nails done here for over 4 years, and I've been having Tammy do them for awhile now. She is amazing at what she does, a true nail artist! She is very efficient and makes sure my nails are perfect before I leave, and if I do find anything wrong with them, she makes certain to fix it without hesitation. I always leave loving my nails! I usually get pink and white gel, but recently I've been getting shellac color on an acrylic overlay. I've referred several of my girlfriends to Tammy, and they've ended up loving her work just as much as I do. I'm pretty picky when it comes to nails and I've honestly always left a very satisfied customer. I don't trust anyone else to do them except for Tammy! If you need an expert nail lady I would definitely request her. Also, the owner Charlie is a very sweet, funny man and provides exceptional customer service! read more

This place is awful. I came in with my mom. We picked our polishes and were seated next to each other. The pedi bowls were dirty - I mean visible slimy pond scum looking dirty. Before filling up my bowl, she rinsed it down with water - no cleaners. I go to put my feet in once it is filled with water and nearly burn my feet off its so hot. I ask if she can please cool it down a bit, and she says sure. While she is cooling it down, she removes my polish. At this point my mom is asking her lady if she can please ring the bowl before she starts. She nods and rinses the bowl down with water. My mom stares in horror. As she told me later, it was an infection waiting to happen! After my polish is removed, I go to put my feet back in the bowl. The water is FRIGID. I mean, this wouldn't have been the last straw or anything, but can she really not figure out how to put water in this bowl that is neither boiling hot nor freezing cold?! How many times a day does this lady fill this bowl? So anyway, I am going to blow it off, and go to put my chair back since it is sitting so straight up that I am hunched over. I can't get the remote the do anything so I ask her about it and she blows me off, saying something about her manager. I think she means that her manager will come fix it, so I shut up and wait. A couple minutes pass and I am uncomfortable and getting annoyed. I ask her if her manager is going to come fix it. She says no, her manager is gone for the weekend and the chair is broken. I said it was very uncomfortable and I could not get a "relazing" pedi in a broken chair. She says that if she knew it would be a problem for me, she would have seated my mom there. WELL, NOW THAT WOULD TOTALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. At this point my mother turns to me and says, "Can we go, please?" She refused to put her feet in the dirty bowl, and I don't blame her. The level of dirt made it obvious that they did not clean it at all throughout the day. Just imagine how unsanitary their tools are. We left as politely as we could, with them screaming at us the whole way out about how they could just put us in a different chair. Oy. Sad thing is, my mom used to come here now and then and new and liked the owner Charlie. He was apparently out of town, but whether he is around or not, I won't ever return here. Summary; Unsanitary and I highly doubt all of these women are even licensed to do nails. read more

Do not go here for your nails! I stopped going here about a year ago because I got my nails done and a pedicure and left there bleeding and they wanted to charge me full price. My cuticles were all cut up and bleeding and then when I got my toes done she clipped a chunk of my toe skin off that was also bleeding. I decided to go back since I was close by and needed my nails done. Not only did it take an hour and 45 minutes for a full gel set but I don't know how many times she drilled into my cuticle, yes they were bleeding again. When I felt the pain I would pull my hand away and she would tell me to stop moving that's why she was drilling my cuticles. I'm sorry but I'm not gonna just sit there while your sanding away my skin with a drill! Here are pictures of my cuticles 5 days later and they are still very painful. read more
