This place is amazing. Great customer service and very clean. Love that it doesn't smell like a typical nail salon where you smell all the chemical make up from the materials that are used to make your nails look beautiful. Tam did an awesome job on my Ombre design on my nail. If your looking for a new place to get your nails done, I recommend them highly. read more

Venetian Nails & Spa - Tam, thanks for the awesome job you did on my nails. OMBRE LOVE! I absolutely love it. - Nail Salons Near Me - Elkridge, Maryland

my nail had broke and my regular nail technician was on vacation. so I decided to come here to get a quick fix. I asked the lady if she could do almond shaped nails and she said yes. My nails did not look almond shaped and they were all uneven. And then she picked out the wrong color for me. Second time was today, If I had known that they charged you $50 for a gel pedicure I would have never came here. They barely even gave me a massage or a full "spa pedicure" I saw another lady and she was getting all sorts of scrubs and massages. I believe the owners name was Kathy, but $50 for a gel manicure is way too high especially when they didn't do anything except paint the toenail polish. Never coming here again, when my nail technician will charge me $35 and give me a full massage and different scrubs. read more

Tam is awesome and extremely attentive. I don't mind the time he takes with me because the end result is above & beyond my expectations. Love him read more

I've been going to this salon for several years. They are very accommodating and I have only ever had pleasant experiences there. I frequently have issues with manicures and pedicures because I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. With RA, any rough handling makes manis or pedis quite painful. The techs have always been very careful to avoid hurting me. Also, I am allergic to lavender, so the traditional pedicure has to be altered to avoid this. They have been very pleasant and careful about this. They have a lovely selection of polish, but are quite willing to use polish I bring from home. They also have wonderful, relaxing pedicure chairs toward the back of the store. But the most important thing is, they do great work. Eyebrow waxing, pedicures, and manicures (french, gel, and traditional) are all done extremely well, and at a fair price. I haven't tried any other services, but based on discussions I've had with other customers, I am sure they are equally well done. read more

Tried it out for the first time, and won't be returning. Got a gel manicure and the only thing I liked about it was how speedy it was. I was done in 30 mins, good and bad sign... No one greets you when you walk in, and the salon environment is not exactly inviting or relaxing for my standards. The manicure itself was ok if you need a quick job done and arent picky. I was never asked how I wanted my nails filed or cut. I rather pay more and go someplace else with better service and nicer environment. read more

I ended up here on accident. I was looking for lavender nail spa. I can say I've never had to stop a pedicure mid way thru and leave, but I guess there is a first time for everything. The gentleman doing my pedicure had no idea what he was doing. He didn't clean underneath my toenails until I asked him And then he still didnt do it right. I tipped him and asked him to stop and left! Will not return. Do not recommend. read more

Great pedicure. Best chairs. 18 different Manila pediatric combos. Working moms dream

This place is dirty, run down, and very poorly run. Don't waste your time or money. I went to have a pedicure and a gel manicure. My pedicure was completed and then was told that they had to close to go pick up the owner's wife from the airport. This is only after they began to remove the gel that was on my nails. They then asked if I could come back. Just, no! Completely unacceptable. I too have places to be, like work in an hour. They never should have taken me as a client if they couldn't completed my services. No ethics. read more

I believe I have been coming here regularly for a little under 2 years now. I happened to get Ken my first time here and now he is the reason I come back. Overall the environment is clean, friendly, and very calming. I typically get a gel manicure and pedicure with Ken every few weeks (when I'm able to that is. My frequent bi/triweekly visits haven't been as often now that I'm away for school, but I am always sure to go to him when I'm back for break!) and he is by far the one of the best techs I have ever come across in all my years of nail pampering. He is attentive, sweet, and a very very very good masseuse! And trust me, I do not take the topic of massages lightly. I understand the job of a nail technician is not to be an expert masseuse, but (and call it an obsession with good massages) I feel like I was robbed of something when I get my nails done and the massage is just 'eh'. Ken is the opposite of 'eh'. His massages are literally to die for. At my last visit with him last week, I timed (just for this review!) how long he took when massaging my feet/lower legs during the pedicure, and he took a total of 4 minutes and 6 seconds. That's a WHILE for only ONE foot/lower leg. Every time I go to him, I just feel like he focuses on just me and isn't pressed on finished ASAP in order to get to the next customer or to just get me finished and out, he truly spends time with care on all he does, the massages, but also in cuticle fixing, polish application, and perfect cleanup for the most clean-cut, flawless nails. Anyways, I probably sound so silly about going gah-gah over the massages, but that's truly the cherry-on-top for my experience with Ken. In terms of his actual nail work: he is diligent and very very attentive as I said before. I'm super picky, and will straight-forwardly tell my nail technician if something should be fixed or if I'd like for them to focus on something specific when they do get to it. Not ever in my almost 2 years with Ken has he complained, made a face, or done anything nasty for my straight-forward comments. (Disclaimer: I'm also not nasty in how I ask him to fix or tell him how something is wonky! Always make sure you're nice when you're asking/telling something to someone who is completing a service for you:) He is very accommodating and so careful. As I said above, he is so attentive and focused on just me when he is doing my nails that I don't feel like he's ever in a rush to just finish me up to get on to the next one, which is one of my top reasons, if not #1, for why I enjoy going to Venetian Nails for him. Ken will spend the time you deserve even if he has another customer waiting (I think they're pretty good with making appointments in a way where he is able to dedicate a substantial amount of time to a customer without feeling the need to rush). The only thing that could *potentially* be seen as a downfall would be the time he takes due to how diligent and careful he is in everything he does, from massaging the oil into your cuticles to shaping your nails to perfection. When I went for my gel manicure and pedicure this past week, I was there for about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Though, I do not think this is a downfall, but if you are in a rush for time, obviously the time duration isn't ideal for you. But for those that can afford the time length, in order to receive the attentiveness, care, and precision of an awesome and sweet nail tech, I would highly recommend going to Ken at Venetian Nails! read more

I would give this place 5 stars if it wasnt for the miscommunication that I had with the guy who did my nails and his bad attitude. I had previously went to some other nail salon and they did a horrible job. I went here to get them fixed and even though this place did a good job it was a lot of huffing and puffing on the part of the guy nail tech that did it. He acted as if he was not interested in dealing with me. I had one of my nails pop off and asked him to fix it. He did it really fast and sloppy. I then asked him to look at the other nails to see if they were salvageable. He then proceeded to cut away the parts of the other nails that were coming up from my nail bed and recommended a fill in to fix these holes. I thought that we was going to then do the fill in to replace the parts he broke off and he said no. He said to just walk around with it the way that it was until my nail grew out more. I was not about to walk around with holes in my nails! I then told him to do a fill in since he just cut away my nails and left them raggedy. He huffed and puffed and got an attitude. The part that makes me mad is that he redid the broken nail that he just fixed because he knew he had done a sloppy job 5 minutes prior! He was just trying to get me out of there so he could go back to playing his iPad. I wont go here again just because of the attitude. The final product was great but attitude is everything! I did give him a tip because of the final product. read more

I went to get a manicure before I leave for disney this weekend. The lady who did my nails didn't talk at all the whole time I was getting it done. The whole process was rushed and the thing that pushed me more toward writing a review was my finger got infected very bad. I would not suggest going there nor will I ever go back to that nail spa again read more

Came here yesterday with my boyfriend's mother for pedicures, I was very pleased with the decor and atmosphere here. It's a large open beautifully decorated establishment. They have lots of manicure stations and tons of pedicure chairs, which is really nice if you come with a few people and want to all get your nails done together. The nail technicians were very polite and eager to assist us and tell us about other spa services they offer. I was very impressed with my pedicure, it was done with so much care and precision. The only thing that surprised me and turned me off just a bit was during my pedicure the nail tech answered her cell phone twice. Which isn't a big deal but it's just in poor taste. The basic pedicure cost 25.00 which is pretty standard for this area. They also offer facials, massages, waxing and extended pedicures for some more relaxation. I would come back if I was in the area and in need of a beautiful pedicure. read more

Been waiting for an hour. No one greeted me when I entered. And poor upkeep of the chairs.

Very relaxing atmosphere, clean, and staff is nice. There was a little language barrier, but nothing that interrupted the service. Prices seemed average. They really take their time and give you a quality pedicure. Great massage chairs and they did a good job painting my toe nails. I walked in on a Saturday and had to wait about 30 minutes, but they do make appointments too. I will definitely be back. read more

This place was awful. I called early that day to ask a few questions and the lady who answered was very curt and knowledgeable..assuming it was a language barrier issue I decided to still come in since the facility is very close to me. It was a cold rainy day so I figured they would not be busy. Needless to say the women who did my nails was very rude, and unfriendly she did a rush job on my nails(I got an overlay on my natural nail) she hurried me out the store after warning me that my nails were not fully dry and would not be for another 30 minutes ( she was anxious to put another customer in her chair). My nails were sore and the gel was too thick. Everyone that looked like a happy customer seem to all be going to the one male in the shop. I WILL not give this place a second chance I now go to K&D nails a little more expensive but worth it. read more

Ken is AWESOME! I recently moved to the area and had tried 3 different nail salons, none of which compared to my old salon... Until I found Ken at Venetian! My pedicure was fabulous and he not only fixed the botched nail fill that I got at the last place, he made my nails look PERFECT! read more

I went here about a week ago & got a set of acrylics along with a pedicure. My total was $55 which I feel is the same as anywhere else I have ever gone in the area. While I was new to the Venetian, I am not new to getting my nails done. The woman who did my pedicure was awesome, & although I am clumsy & have chipped my nail polish at this point, I was very happy with it overall. However, my acrylics are terrible. I got them around dinnertime and 4 days later when I went to my usual place to get my eyebrows done, I was told I already needed a fill-in! Now, this might have been them trying to get money out of me but the more I looked at my nails, the more things I kept finding problems with. They look like they are peeling up off my natural nails, a few of them are cut crooked, and right now (8 days later) I am desperately in need of a fill in. The person who did them was preoccupied with another customer who was getting the (more expensive) gel product put onto their nails & based on the conversation she seemed to be a regular customer. He kept going back & forth between the 2 of us & I felt as though being a first time customer at this particular establishment made me less of a priority & resulted in him doing a less than adequate job. read more

Please do not go here if you have any other choices! I went for a simple French manicure. No gels and no acrylic. I just had mine done 4 days ago somewhere else and they were chipping. This place is right around the corner from me so I decided to give them a try. The woman I had could not understand a word I was saying. I wanted a base coat with a little tint to it. She thought this meant I did not want a French manicure and did a double coat. Then when I reiterated that it was a French manicure she tried to freehand paint the White on and really messed it up. Then she tried to fix it with nail polish remover and ruined the bottom coat. Then the other workers told me that she could paint the White on and then put the colored base coat on top of it. Who wants the white of their French manicure ruined with a color on top? After about 5 more minutes and more mess ups and miscommunication I asked her to please take it all off. I literally just handed her $20 and walked out. I felt bad that she had taken the time, but this was the most frustrating experience I have ever had. Never ever going back! read more
