2025-10-16Come in for a walk in and Marry did a great job on my massage. I got a #3 and it was very relaxing/ticklish(thats a me problem) Edit: I kept the disposable sandles on for an extra hour while eating at a nearby restaurant and remembered the nails still looked OK when changing into my opened toe sandles at the end of my meal. When I got home a few hours later, I noticed the polish came off! It didnt fully dried after waiting in the salon for 10 minutes plus about an hour at the restaurant plus a few hours wearing opened toe shoes. Cheap polish, no longer worth the price I paid:(

2025-09-14AMAZING! Christine is awesome, Her work speaks for itself! I have been trying a couple different nail salons which led to many disappointments so I decided to try Italy Nail & Spa today and I do not regret it. I in fact will be a regular! I made a same day appointment over the phone and they took me in immediately. I went in to get a mani pedi with a very specific design in mind and from the moment I walked in till the moment I left everyone was super kind. Christine worked amazingly with me since I am very picky with nails and she never made me feel like I was asking for too much. I absolutely love my nails AND they’re not thick which I loved since whenever I do gel x at other salons they tend to somehow make them thick. I also want to mention that the lady who did my pedicure was also super kind and did an amazing job! (I’m sorry I forgot her name!😭) I’m extremely pleased with my experience and I highly recommend everyone to check them out! ☺️

2025-08-21I’ve loved every artist I’ve had here. Today I had Marry and she did a super thorough and good job on my pedicure. Lena’s last pedicure of mine didn’t chip at all for weeks with regular polish. You won’t be disappointed if you come here!
