Wejdan ✨March 30, 2018Amazing service! Very talented artists. I had Anna and she was amazing! she listened to what I wanted and suggested a few modifications. She knows what she’s doing and the end result was perfect.
Christine WangDecember 14, 2014Had a fantastic experience. Prompt service, friendly staff, & they seated my friends and I together. I have a feeling I'll be coming back every season!
Elyse EstradaSeptember 12, 2017Michelle is a true pro! I had never been before and was getting my nails done before my wedding. We talked options and colors she made sure it was what I wanted and I'm in love with the final product!
- Curated, sophisticated nail art for everyone! Beautiful and relaxing location, the team is great! Cool photo booth to snap a picture of your manicure when you are done.
Only 2 bad things: once you go here, all other manicures look blah in comparison, and also it's impossible to make a choice on what to get! If you're on the fence, you can never go wrong with foil.
Amazing nail options, wonderful and friendly service, and you can even have a glass of bubbly while you get a mani. Pricey but completely worth it for something fun.
Great place to get a manicure! Easy online booking and they get you in and out in under a hour (or an hour and a half if you require removal). Great designs. Great nail artists.

Kim B.June 14, 2014The technician spent the entire hour and a half appointment removing the gel on my nails and I had to walk out with nothing on my nails :( Ridiculous. Stay away from this place.
