Very friendly staff. Always get a great mani pedi when we come. It's a simple place so you aren't paying for unnecessary overhead. This place is a 5 star. We always tip well, hard to find a reasonably place salon with nice prices. I highly recommend making an appointment. They can be popular, they can't drop everything for the occasional drama queens who think they can bump in line. read more

It might not look like much but this is the best nail joint this side of the city for a simple, clean, beautiful gel set. I can't speak to their acrylics or fancy designs but the do an amazing job on gel manicures and pedicures and are really just the sweetest. And for $25 gel mani, I'm so impressed. Important!! They ONLY accept tips in cash so you MUST bring some dollars - the corner store across the street has a cash back option. read more

4th Street Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This is a true hole-in-the-wall nail salon, but they do an amazing job and it's so affordable. Today I got a gel polish change, which included a cut, file, buff, gel polish, and even a short hand massage. All for $15! It probably would've been $12 or 13 if I'd been able to take advantage of their cash discounts. Only cons are that it is definitely a little run-down in there, and it can be hard to understand the employees sometimes. I still highly recommend this place and you usually don't even need an appointment except perhaps on weekends. read more

They do a great job. Very friendly and reasonably priced. Have been going there every two weeks for gels for my finger nails and sometimes for pedicures. read more

Have gone there a few times, they're always welcoming and friendly. Prices are amazing, they have opi and essie and CND options, decent selection for gel colors, too. I'm particular with designs and details and they do a great job! read more

See all

Went in for gel manicure and regular pedicure. I had a Groupon deal - first of all, they said I couldn't avail that without an appointment, which is just rude! Secondly, there were only 2 women who work here and when we went in with 2 mani pedis and 1 mani, they made it sound like we would get done in no time, but made us wait forever! One of them was constantly on her phone or going outside repeatedly. I would give it one more star if at least the quality was good - but the gel mani came off in a week. Would NOT recommend. read more

4th Street Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

While visiting Philadelphia for my niece's college graduation, I was in desperate need of a little TLC on my hands and feet. I tried going to Nail Polish Bar on 2nd St and was quoted $55 for a gel manicure! I immediately opened my Yelp app and started searching for another nail salon. I called 4th Street Nails and was told to go right over (even though it was 7:00pm and the business should have been closing at 7:30). The inside gave me pause for a moment, and the fact that there were limited colors from which to choose had me rethinking my decision. Being treated like a queen from the moment I sat down, however, made up for all of that! The workers eagerly agreed to not only give me a manicure but a pedicure as well. Additionally, they went out of their way to find a color I loved. (The male worker put several colors on his own nails to help me choose the best shade of pink!) One worker tended to my feet while two others worked on my hands, and they were all amazingly friendly during my entire experience! Both services combined were cheaper than the one service I was quoted at the afore-mentioned establishment!! My only regret is that I don't live near enough to become a lifetime customer of 4th Street Nails! (I live in Louisiana.) If you are on the fence about visiting this nail salon, don't let the looks of it turn you away. It is definitely a hidden gem. If the same workers service you, I am certain you will be 100% satisfied . . . at half the cost of other places!! read more

I LOVE this little nail salon! Everyone is so nice and they give the best pedicure in the neighborhood! They have taken covid very seriously, there is plexiglass between all of the stations, it's super clean, and all of the staff is vigilant about masks/shields. I could not recommend 4th street nails more than I already do. I'm so happy they opened back up!! read more

First time visiting 4th Street Nails and I had a great experience! The gentleman who did my gel manicure was very meticulous. Very happy with the end result! read more

4th Street Nails - Gel Manicure - $25 - Nail Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I've been coming to 4th Street Nails for a little over a year, and I really won't go anywhere else. The staff is so friendly, and the gentleman who does the acrylic nails is the most meticulous and detail-oriented manicurist I've ever had. You also can't beat their prices, especially in this neighborhood. Regarding Covid protocols, I feel very safe here. All staff wear gloves and masks at all times, and there is plexiglass between you and your manicurist and between you and the other customers. Definitely a hidden gem!! read more

I've been coming here for many years and can't believe that I've never posted a review. I mostly have my brows and nails done. They are popular so sometimes there's a wait but they're totally worth it. I've been to a couple of other places that are closer or when I lack the time but always prefer 4th St over anyone else. read more

I agree the place does look a bit outdated but they did a pretty decent job on my pedicure. The leg massage was amazing! I swear she as going at it for 10 minutes. I'd go back - they were nice, it was only $20 for the ped, and they take credit card! read more

I'm a repeat customer and 4th Street is my little hidden gem. The prices are unmatched compared to other salons in the city. My acrylics have lasted for over a month without breaking off (granted, I shouldn't wait so long haha). Only thing is they can take a while doing them, but I'd MUCH rather have that than someone who's in a rush! read more

I get a pedi/mani every time I travel. I asked a local shop owner (Aubrey at the Bus Stop Boutique) for a recommendation for a nail salon nearby. She sent me here. The prices were just right and Q executed one of the best basic manicures I've had in a long time. I patronize places like this - no frill salons with premium prices - and about half the time, I get what I pay for...a mediocre mani/pedi. But not this time. 4th Street Nails was a great recommendation. Excellent service (even at the end of the day, no one was rushing), very good variety of polish colors, shellac, nail designs. Friendly, efficient staff. I would make this my regular nail salon if I lived here. read more

I go to this place every few weeks, and while it definitely has it's cons, it is right around the corner from my work and it is pretty cheap (including free airbrushes on certain days). Even though you call to make an appointment, they never write down any of your information or even ask for your name, and sometimes you still have to wait to go after walk-ins, they should probably stop saying they take appointments. It is pretty run down, but it seems pretty clean nonetheless. read more

Thought I was getting a good deal- $20 pedi. Yeah, it was cheap and here's why: the place is grimey and the nail polish chips, quick. I can make a good pedicure last half a summer, but this one barely lasted two weeks. read more

I think what this salon lacks in aesthetics it compensates for with its service. This is THE best spot in the area to go for a pedicure. I have come here for my first pedi of the season after a long winter of low/no maintenance or after weeks of wearing heels (which does a number on callouses.) I have definitely been to places where after a pedi, my feel still rough or cuticles disorderly. That is not the case here. They work diligently and also give a good massage. The price of a pedicure is average. They also do a pretty nice eyebrow wax! If you're in the area, try not to be thrown by the outdated look of the place and trust that they have solid service. Also, the one gentleman that works there gives a really excellent manicure. read more

They're pretty damn thorough on the actual pedicuring part and that's what I really get these for. I don't really care how long a polish lasts as much as i care that they take a lot of time getting my feet looking girly regardless of polish. Jiu-jitsu pretty much blasts thru any polish except for gel so i don't even bother holding my breath for that to last even one training session. Apparently the basic pedicure includes a scrub and massage. She took A LOT of time on the massage and wasn't all weak about it either. Another plus that she didn't make me have awkward chit chat! Sometimes all you wanna do is have a few minutes to yourself not thinking about too much or trying to socialize, right? ! $20 for all that? ? Sold. Coming back for sure. read more

We were here visiting from California, and this place was about two blocks away from our Airbnb. So pleased with our experience here. Ladies did a fantastic job with our gel mani & pedis, and they were so nice. Definitely recommend if you are in the area. read more

Bella Vista's best kept secret. The longest pedicure you've ever had - an impeccable massage and lots of TLC for rough spots and dead skin. You won't want to leave! read more

I went today for the first time and I was thoroughly impressed. I got a gel manicure and a regular pedicure for $45 (gel 25, pedi 20). My technician was very thorough and it is always hard to find someone who is willing to be thorough esp for the price that you pay, but she was great. There were alot of color options as well. It definitely got busy fast even when I was one of the first people to arrive, so while they do accept walk-ins, it might be better to schedule an appointment with them if you can. They do accept credit cards which is also a plus, but they only accept cash tip, which i dont always carry cash with me, so that was a little surprising. Overall, I had a really good experience and will definitely keep this place on my list of future nail salons because they are nice people, inexpensive prices, but take the time to do your nails and do it well! read more

While this salon may not be the most updated place in the area, it certainly is affordable! The staff is friendly and very willing to work with ideas that customers have for their nails. I don't get my nails done often so I try not to spend too much money when I do. When I went on June 1st with a friend we just wanted to get manis and pedis. The price for those together is only $30! What a great deal! I ended up getting acrylic nails with the gel paint, a design, and a pedicure, which only cost $60. To me this is still reasonable considering other salons in the neighborhood. There was a bit of a wait when we entered which was a little upsetting, but expected in a small place. The woman who did my nails worked super hard to get them just the way I wanted. I've gotten so many compliments on how beautiful they are. It's been a few weeks and even though the nails have grown out, the paint still looks beautiful! read more

4th Street Nails - The nails have grown out but the paint has held up! I am so impressed by the work at this salon! - Nail Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Color selection is limited. Staff workers don't understand much English which makes it difficult to communicate what the costumer wants. But overall polish is clean and well done. I recommend calling ahead for an appointment or you'll just be waiting around all day. read more

Love going to this place, they do a great job and and so kind. Their prices are low as well and you still get quality service.

I can't actually see why people haven't been giving this place four or five across the board. No, it isn't the prettiest place in the world, but the staff are so sweet and good at what they do. Honestly, this is the best mani/pedi I have received in Philly. Also, the leg massage lasted about 10-12 minutes and was awesome. I'll go back for sure. read more

The service is great and the technicians are all talented and super friendly. While the shop is small and older I have never gotten a better service anywhere else. I have had pink and whites, pedicures, and manicures done here and all were perfect and inexpensive. The pedicure is what I get done most and for only $20 they spend a lot of time massaging your legs as well as really removing your calluses, not just a quick pumice stone swipe that doesn't accomplish anything. In summary, everyone should give 4th street a shot and remember to tip them based on how great they are, not the total price, $4 tip for an hour of work, even though it's 20% just isn't fair. Enjoy! read more

This place looks pretty scary from the outside, but it's actually alright (although I will agree with other reviewers who said they might not trust the chairs enough to get a pedicure here). I got a manicure and the man who did it was VERY meticulous. He went over any spots he got on the skin with a brush dipped in polish remover and was extremely precise. The manicure also lasted a good length of time. Pros: Quality, price; Cons: Physical appearance, selection of polish shades-- they have nothing trendy, mostly just reds and pinks, which is a BIG con for me, since I like my bright nails! read more

I am in agreement with the other reviewers in expressing bewilderment at any of the negative reviews. This is by far the best manicure/pedicure I've received in Philadelphia, separate from the price which was very reasonable ($30 for mani/pedi). They really take their time and are committed to providing a quality service, which is far more important to me than the drink or magazine selection. My manicure looks immaculate one week later, which is unprecedented. It was clear during my time there that most of their customers are regulars, which speaks to the quality of the service. The staff was also very kind. Even though it was past closing time, they insisted on waiting for my nails to fully dry, rather than rushing me out the door. I cannot wait to return, although it won't be immediate as I expect my nails to hold up for awhile thanks to their work. read more

This little salon is a gem. It looks like a dump from the outside, so don't be too quick to pass it up. They are super friendly and clean. I just walked in and in the corse of my manicure and pedicure about 7 other woman dropped in for a quick brow wax. I paid $28 for the mani pedi plus a generous tip to my tech for the amazing foot and leg massage. read more

Love this nail place! This is my favorite place in the neighborhood. They do an excellent job and prices are great! This is a nice casual spot. Not one of those fancy places. I always have pretty nails and soft hands and feet coming out! read more

I always leave this place so happy with my nails. Everyone here is really good but Lan is my favorite. I will be coming here as long as she is working here. They take their time and do a super great job. I couldn't be anymore happier that this place is walking distance from my house! It's really such a blessing read more

This place is right around the corner from my house so while the service isn't fantastic, I'll go back. It looks fairly run down from the outside and the inside isn't any better. I went in one week day and no one looked up at me. There was no one else waiting so I saw down figuring someone would be with me soon. Five minutes went by and nothing. Then an older woman who must be a regular there walked in and everyone greeted her and started asking her what she wanted done. At this point I had to interject and point out that I had been there for quite some time and would like to go first. They begrudgingly let me. The mani/pedi weren't the best I've ever gotten but it was cheap enough - around $30. read more

I've been here for a pedicure and eyebrow waxing. Prices are reasonable. I don't get pedicures often so I have no real comparison. I can say that the foot/leg massage felt amazing. read more

This place did a great mani/pedi. Staff was professional and nice.

This salon has been my regular nail home for 5 years and I an never disappointed. Vanessa, Tom and their staff are not only great with mani-pedis, they are also terrific people. The length of time the staff has been together is proof of how good they are. read more

Perfectly serviceable manicure. No bells and whistles (hot towels, nice smelling lotions), but they did a nice, quick job for $10. My nails and cuticles are neat and the polish was applied meticulously. Great for a quick manicure on a work night. I'll probably go again when efficiency is the name of the game as I'm in the neighborhood. When I have more time, though, I'll seek out a place with a few more amenities and spend a few more bucks. I didn't get a pedicure, but the pedicure chairs looked older and a little sad. Not sure I'd risk it. read more

I frequently get my manicures and pedicures here and they do a great job. Rarely every any wait time, the technicians are very thorough and always include a nice massage with the pedicures. I've been meaning to write this review since the first time I went but they'll always get my business. read more

Personally I like to spend my money on service or product instead of decor. When I need my nails done I don't care for a place with ambiance that will charge me double for it. 4th street nails is clean and the staff is very friendly and does the job right. That's more than enough for me. One star off only because they didn't use a top coat and the paint took forever to dry and also got messed before I got home. Not sure if I should have asked for it, and if yes, why they don't do it by default. In any case, I will ask them next time since I will definitely go back to this place. read more

I've gotten my eyebrows done here as well as gel manicure, pedicure, and acrylics. It's just a little hole-in-the-wall shop, as other posts have mentioned, but the service is fantastic. I've never been disappointed with the quality of work they do, and the prices are pretty cheap ($6 eyebrow wax? Yes, please!). The staff is super friendly as well. read more
