Great service and friendly staff. They offer drinks and snacks. However, less than 24 hours later my the nail polish is peeling off. Before leaving the nail salon I expressed my concerns and was told the problem was my nail surface not the nail polish. Update: I received a call from manager offering an apology and I have an appointment to redo my nails. My manicure was redone by Brad who did an amazing job. He was very careful and detail oriented. Posted a new picture with darker pink nails to show the new nails.

Ho-ly cow!!! Cindy and Jack were amazing!! I havenโ€™t had an experience like that in ages! Cindy did an amazing job on my pedi and massage I almost fell asleep ๐Ÿ˜…. ( I got the upgraded pack) and Jack did an awesome job on my hand painted French tip full set! (We do not get that back home). Everything was clean, beautiful, very attentive, they even gave me a snack, and not to mention the drinks!! Everyone was so sweet and you get a 7 day satisfaction guarantee!! Guess Iโ€™m leaving my old salon!! They definitely have a new customer out of me. I LOVED it!๐Ÿ˜

Great place and atmosphere. I get pedicures here and I love them! I came in to get a full set and my total was roughly $101, I had a $5 off coupon so it came out to $96 including $10 tip. She did a great job on my nails and the lady was kind. Although, they charged me for every little thing I got, even S length?? I will likely not be getting my nails done here again. Iโ€™d rather try a home nail tech for cheaper price and possibly better color matching

Our very first time going and it wonโ€™t be our last! My daughter and I had an afternoon together and it was fun. Although the wait time was a little over 2 hours, it was worth it! Thanks to Jack and Jason for doing a fabulous job!!

I've been going to another salon for years and their service has dipped recently so I decided to try this place instead and it was amazing. They brought me a drink and brought around complimentary snacks. Very friendly staff and calming environment. Tina was great and even double checked the color with me because she heard me mention I wanted it to be dark and the one I chose wasn't dark enough. She found the perfect replacement and gave the most relaxing pedicure and massage ever. This was on par with the service I got when I visited the Deadsea in Jordan at a high end resort. This is my new go to spot. ๐Ÿ’…๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ˜Œ
