I asked for a gel manicure for my short nails and to fix my press on nails issues. Brenda was so nice and fixed it right away. The energy of the place was also very welcoming. Would definitely recommend. read more

I paid over $400 to treat the girls in the family to mani pedis. The lady at the front is immature and rude- she's there only because she's one of the only ones who speaks English. She clearly displays that she hates her job and doesn't want to be there. The ladies doing the nails were very polite and respectful and made great conversation - there're no complaints about their customer service. However- a majority of us left our appointments with poorly done nail polish, crooked nails, chips and nicks in our gel nails. It was very disappointing. We live nearby so we want to support the closest nail salon to us- but that was a lot of money spent for a job poorly done. read more

I absolutely love this nail salon! I've been going regularly and the consistency is what keeps me going back. Yvonne always does an amazing job, she is super friendly, and makes the whole experience relaxing. I can trust that my nails will look great every single time! read more

Workers are okay, but the service is no good. I spent 67$+tip for this full set that I had to get re-done one day later and spend an additional cost!! all because the polish was peeling off not even a day later! I highly don't recommend this place, unless you want your polish to come off the next day. waste of money. read more

My pedicure was great! Vicky did a wonderful job. It was very a relaxing experience overall and I plan on coming back. Thank you again!

I have done manicure and pedicure here twice already and I am very satisfied with their service. I really liked nail technician Nancy, she has done amazing acrylic nails, she is able to do your preferred shape and nail design or color, and my nails last really long without breaking. read more

Yvonne provided me with great mani pedi. Did not rush the procedure. Venue was busy with both appointments and walk ins. read more

Their location off Friant is great, and the inside is decorated very well. They do not allow tipping on your credit card, only cash or venmo for certain techs. Here's my experience: I called to make an appointment for later this past Sunday and was told there was availability. So happy to not be a walk-in, however it didn't seem to make a difference. I booked a mani-pedi and the service was rushed and underwhelming. My manicure was a gel (+$15 to manicure cost) and there were air bubbles throughout the top coat, the color and top coat covered my cuticles on just my left hand (which were not trimmed well during the manicure) and ending up lifting nearly the next day. The tech filed my nails after completing the job which also caused lifting on 4/10 nails in the front corners. My toes were their mid grade pedicure which is supposed to include exfoliation and a 10 minute massage. The exfoliation took 15 seconds per foot, even though I asked the tech to focus on my calluses/exfoliation before she started. The massage was not 10 mins and was more painful than enjoyable as the tech only massaged one spot on each calf causing them to get red and raw in a spot about the size of a half of a dollar bill. My toe polish top coat doesn't cover the full nail on any of the toes, and the color is very uneven and looks lumpy rather than smooth. The tech who did my pedicure spent all of her time looking at the door, and when a woman walked in for her 1:15 appointment she told her she would be right with her and 5 mins later "finished" my feet and moved on to the woman who had an appointment 15 minutes after mine... After picking colors and getting a seat that means my pedicure took about 15-18 minutes. Very disappointment, especially since it was not inexpensive at over $40 for just my toes. I called today (a few days after my original appointment) to get the 4 fingernails that lifted fixed. The photo attached is the update. I was very appreciative that they were willing to fix the mistake on my hands, but again was very rushed when it was being taken care of and am still disappointed. I would have given less stars if they hadn't been accommodating to fix the mistake, but will not be visiting again. read more

I had such a good experience here two weeks ago that I had to write about it. I came here with two of my girl friends after a long debate on which nail salon to go to. We all do not really have a favorite in town but we all have places that we will not go. I remembered visiting this place years ago and liked it so when I suggested it we all finally agreed. I got a fill and a pedicure and I must say the foot massage was amazing! My pedicure was perfect. The length, the shape of my nails and the paint job look so good. Now here is where I am usually really picky, my nails. The problem I usually have with my nails is they always make them way longer than I want. Also, I like my nails really square and most places ignore that and round the edges, not today. My fill and my nails turned out better than I was hoping for. The guy who did my nails was so talented and I immediately felt like I was in good hands because I could tell he knew what he was doing. I told him what I was looking for was short and square nails. He said "I know what you want" and the shocking thing is he actually did! He nailed it. I went with my sister and a girl friend and they were both super happy as well. It never happens when we all like our nails, the salon, the cleanliness of it, the massage, the attitude, the vibe...this place had it all. The parking lot is huge and it is never an issue to find a spot. This salon is located in the shopping center on Friant & Fort Washington next door to the Starbucks. Next time I am in Fresno and need a mani or pedi I am definitely coming here! read more

Just had the worst experience here. Took my grandmother for a pedicure. I was helping my grandma translate and nicely asked the guy if it was possible to cut her nails a bit more (per my grandma's request). He quickly became irate and shushed me and said to let him "do his thing". Was a little taken aback but let it go. I tried to explain that I was simply asking if cutting the nails more was a possibility. He literally said "shhhhh" to my face (multiple times) and was visibly agitated. I asked him that he pls not shush me to my face - it was extremely condescending and rude. He then abruptly left the station and refused to finish the job. Definitely will not be returning will be sure to share this experience with friends and family. read more

Thank you so much KELLY for fixing my horrendous nails I got done somewhere else, and staying 30 minutes after closing to make sure I was happy with my results! So impressed with all the nail techs work, and already looking forward to coming back!!!! Totally recommend this place. read more

I don't know where to even begin, so I will just list my thoughts. 1. Older woman doing my pedicure seemed upset as soon as she took me to the chair. It made me feel very uncomfortable. 2. During soaking of my feet, she proceeded to yell at other employee (not talk loudly, actually yell). Other employees got involved into the argument, other customers were staring, and I just awkwardly sat there. 3. She then proceeded to call another person on the phone and more shouting took place as she was working on my nails. 4. As my nail polish was being done, the lady doing my pedicure and manicure were extremely upset and situation felt tense. 5. Both my manicure and pedicure were lazily done. Not what I expected for $83. 6. Issues running my card on their end. I won't be returning. read more

I have finally found a technician that I consider excellent. I recently moved from the Bay Area to Fresno and have been in search of a good Nail Spa. I have tried 3 different shops and Venus Nail and Spa is the fourth. My previous technician was in San Jose and I had been with her for 15 years and she was just magical with her art of nails. I knew that I probably wouldn't find anyone like that any time soon but I was so disappointed with the quality of Nail Spas here and on top of that, it's much more expensive than the Bay Area. I guess that's due to stiffer competition in the Bay Area but still, I was paying almost double here for less than half of quality. Okay, having said that I found my Unicorn at the Venus Nail Spa and to my surprise my new forever technician just started a week ago. Yay!!! She is excellent and my nails look natural again instead of a lumps camel back fake liking nails. Kelly is excellent and she listens. She was so patient with me as I did go on a slight rant of how disappointed I have been. She asked me what I was looking for and even asked if I had photos of how my nail was done in the Bay. She got it! I am now very happy and pray that she stays put. I highly recommend. read more

I have been going to this salon for several years, and always had a good experience, until today!!! The receptionist Mia the manager's niece is a very rude young lady. She has a seriously bad attitude and doesn't mind showing it to the customers!! My bill was over $130.00 which wasn't the problem, I needed her to get me cash so I could tip the kind people doing our pedicures, she gave me a serious attitude about breaking my cash so I could split it with the two pedicurists, she was too busy filling her stapler to take care of the salon's customers, so we ask to speak to the owner and she calls her Aunt the manager, not the owner She speaks loudly, but of course NOT in English so I couldn't understand a word she was saying. I asked if they both spoke English and she replied "Yes" so I told her I would appreciate her speaking in English so I know what she was spewing about us! I finally asked to speak to her Aunt who did nothing, but make excuses for her, of course, she will continue to act like the brat she is if she gets away with it!! I'm a business owner myself and have been self-employed my entire life, I would never treat a customer with so little respect. These nail salons are everywhere in this town and her behavior just cost them two really great customers, but it won't affect her sadly, just the ones actually working and hoping to earn a tip!! read more

WORST PEDICURE EVER! This photo was taken immediately after my gel pedicure. This is the first review I have ever written on Yelp and it is much deserved. The woman who did my pedicure not only cut almost all of my nails crooked, but she painted more of my skin than anything. When she asked if it looked okay I couldn't believe this was satisfactory to her! I pointed out the polish on my skin and she proceeded to pull out her drill. She drilled all around my cuticles and took off the polish from all edges of my nail! I payed over 60$ for a horrible result. This place may be in a nice area and look legit but STAY AWAY! The pictures say it all! read more

I don't get my nails done often and this is only my second time getting acrylics. I was 15 minutes late to my appointment because I got it confused with a different location so that was bad on my part. I had to wait and additional 20+ minutes to be seen as they take any and all walk-ins. Once the nail tech was able to do my nails she did a very rushed job. She did not clean or trim my cuticles AT ALL and my cuticles were not in good shape. I asked for a simple oval shaped French tip set which turned out okay shape wise. However they are quite bumpy on a few nails and she was sloppy with the clean up causing bulkiness by my cuticles and lifting. After she was finished I had to ask for cuticle oil and she put this measly little bit on barely even touched my cuticles. In conclusion my nails look tacky and my cuticles look awful. Not worth $57 nor will I be coming back. read more

Horrible!!! Don't come here please!! Yesterday The lady at station 10 was doing my sisters nails. The lady was talking and she was being distracted. So, while filing my sister's nails she cut the skin on her finger. My sister started to bleed and even the nail file was full of blood and all she said was sorry. That was complete negligence!!! No money back no nothing!! Not even a discount!! All for blabbing and NOT paying attention! read more

Well.. I've always had a great experience here but my experience this last time was far from great. They changed the price twice. I pointed out multiple things I wasn't okay with.. and none were fixed. My nails were like this by this morning. I had to pay to get them fixed locally as I live 30 min from the salon but always made the drive because I've never had a bad experience until now.. EXTREMELY disappointed. I also got a pedicure with gel and my gel is lumpy and just not worth the 92 dollars i paid... If I could give less than one star I would. read more

0 out of 10, and if I could go lower than 0 I would rate such. The guy doing manicure cut my skin (way past cuticle) on three different fingers resulting in bleeding; the dip itself is with a dent and the layer is so thick that my nail hurts. On top of that usually when I go to a salon I see how they open the sterilized kit in front of me and they didn't do it here. It is the worst experience I ever had with a nail salon. I don't know where it Fresno there is a good nail salon but I can definitely say this one is the worst for sure. read more

Perfection! Best mani and pedi in Fresno. Ringo and Troy did an amazing job and they have earned my repeated business.

Good pedicure . Place seemed fairly clean. Not toooo dirty like some nail places. Employees were attentive and willing to please. I am going back again to get my nails done. Not too long of wait time for walk in. read more

If you go, ask for Ringo. I came a couple months ago, he did my full set with dip and i loved it. It lasted almost 2 months. I recently had my nails done by another lady and man, am i disappointed. I had 3 nails break not even a week later. I went back and asked for them to be fixed and she was upset about it. The nails are fixed about is a shade lighter than my original set...I have glue on my skin and some nails are literally glued to my skin! I have some nails that are uneven and others have the dip under the nail!! She didn't clean them after, at all! Such a disappointment to have Gringo give me amazing service and beautiful nails to the receive this. I even complained to the manager, who basically had an attitude of "so what do you want me to do?" which i believe is unacceptable. Why would you be okay with a customer walking out with such bad service and not want to fix it? She says she's not satisfied but didn't help the situation just explained to me that i shouldn't get dip i should get acrylic. What a waste of $80. read more

I liked going here because the salon is spacious, clean and parking is easy but gel mani/pedi is hit and miss! After trying them out for last couple months, I probably won't be back anymore. Pedicures are just ok for the price and gel mani has chipped a few times after just a week. The salon does seem to have its regulars and two or three popular technicians so hopefully that will keep continue to keep them busy. read more

To clarify I went as a walk in for a pedi. I waited only about 5 mins in the entry way and then they put me into a chair. Strong, overwhelming chemical smell from the nail side. They ran the water and there I sat for 15 mins. No bath salts - just warm water. I paid for the basic pedi $45 and that's what it was. I will not be going back. read more

5 thumbs down. I had an appointment today at 10 am. I called 4 times. Two out of the 4 times a lady answered and I said hello. She then said "we are busy" rudely I might add, and hangs up! I was given a gift certificate here for Mother's Day that I will NOT be using nor will I ever support this business ever and will make sure to be vocal about it every chance I get when nails/salons come up in conversations. That is not how a business should answer their phone. I have worked customer service jobs and have had to answer the phone while we were busy and I would have been FIRED if I EVER answered the phone like that for the business. No excuse for this period. read more

I had them remove my acrylics and the women who removed them did an awful job and cleaning them up. Also I had a broken toe nail and the women who was doing my pedicure, glued my toenail back on instead of cutting it off... It was strange, and unfriendly really. read more

Absolutely horrible! I showed the girl the nail shape I wanted from the pictures they had on their website I got the opposite of what I asked for!!! Then they charged me 100 for a fill and pedicure!

Star for how fast they got me in as a walk-in on a Saturday. Star for my pedicure - got the luxury pedicure and it was great! Gel looked good and had a nice massage. My manicure was another story. I had dip on my healthy LONG nails. Instead of foiling my nails to remove, the tech filed the top of my nails multiple times and almost burnt me from the machine. Then when filing the ends instead of holding the file up she rested it on my skin and cut my fingers. Even when told "that hurts" she did not change what she was doing. Not only did she cut my nails down past what was requested...I also now have dip that doesn't cover my entire nail. read more

Well, I have been sitting on this review and finally am at a place where I can be constructive with this one. My mom loves this place. I have been here a few times with her and was like meh. I think that it was overpriced for what you get and the staff are not that friendly. However, we go. BUT... my experience with them almost a week ago really has made me not want to go there again. We made reservations for a Friday afternoon and it was okay. It was loud, even though there were not a lot of people, and I feel like the girl who did my nails was good. I picked a gel polish and was on my way. The next morning I checked my toes out and the color had literally gone crazy. I wish I was kidding. I went from a magenta to magenta around the outside and a pale pink in the middle. I was frustrated and so I called the salon to find out about getting it fixed. The receptionist told me that I had to remember who had done it. Well.... that was not so easy so I said that I had a reservation and they should have my ticket. She said no and that I needed to remember. I told her everything I could and she told me that I would need to come in and show her who did it. I was quite annoyed but I figured if I could do this I could get it fixed. I went in to the salon and really struggled to identify the person, which was a little uncomfortable because I am strolling around trying to point out who had done this, when there had to be a better way. Finally a guy that works there asked the staff who had done it and the woman said it was her. Then I was told that I would need to wait 40 minutes until she could get to me because she was busy. Annoyed by this, I just scheduled an appointment for the next Tuesday. I went on Tuesday, having an appointment, and she was not very friendly. I sat down and she (along with the receptionist) made a comment about me sticking to the polish brand I know. Yeah, that was not on me that it was not good. While she did my nails she was not very friendly, but whatever. Then she had one of her regulars come in and the lady (along with her mother and kids) were not happy that she was not working with her immediately. She was loud and rude and my lady was more focused on her needs than on mine. The poor lady on the other side of me was also not being taken care of because they were distracted, and her water was overflowing. She was just looking to relax and the chaos was not helping that. Then, as we are still having to hear the other 2 ladies complain and distracting my lady, another sink starts overflowing and I let her know, since kids are playing in the water. She eventually told someone to stop it and did not even say anything to me. Once she was done she was just like "okay I am done" and went back to focusing on the other complaining lady. Poor nice lady who just wanted to relax, like me, because I know she will not be back there either. I know that I will not support a business that makes you feel miserable and not valued as a customer like I experienced at Venus. read more

Before I started going to Venus my nail experiences had always been just average, I never had consistency in the level of quality my nails would have when they were finished. I came to Venus with a friend a year back and had the luck of having Ringo give me a full set. I cannot stress enough how great of a nail tech Ringo is, he goes above and beyond to make sure my nails always look 100% perfect before he's done. When he is booked, however, the other nail techs who fill his place do a great job as well. The pictures attached are a couple days old from when I originally had them done and obviously don't do Ringo's work justice. I love this salon, they have amazing service and I wouldn't trust my nail care with anybody but Venus read more

I don't usually ever leave reviews, but I had to this time. I know accidents happen sometimes when cutting the cuticle, but the lady that was doing my pedicure kept putting things on the cut to try to make it stop bleeding! It was burning! She even put nail glue on the cut! Who does that?? She should've just left my cut alone. Not sure that she is a certified nail tech.. this was my first time coming and was very disappointed.
