Always great, friendly service. A nice quiet atmosphere. And very good prices. Always willing to fill any requests read more

Friendly neighborhood salon that's quite busy and for good reason. All the technicians are meticulous and take their time to do the job right. I've only been here for pedicures but they always make sure to do a thorough cleaning and they do 3 coats of nail color instead of 2. They also don't charge extra for quick set top coat unlike some other salons in the hood. The only reason why I knocked off a star is cuz sometimes to be seen here since they are so busy and cuz they are so busy- I've had wrong change handed back when I have been here so make sure you double check your change. read more

I tried to go here for a pedicure and when I walked in and asked if they had availability I was met with unnecessary rudeness. They made me feel like I was an inconvenience and had a weird attitude. Definitely not friendly or approachable. read more

I was visiting Astoria and looking for a quick and cheap basic manicure. Agata Nails was nearby and didn't have much of a wait. Mary was my nail tech and did a great job. She was kind and patient. The place is very small, but they do have a bathroom. Head to the back of the shop and take a spiral staircase down to find it. Looks like they offer other 'spa' services in a room down there too. The price can't be beat at $13 for a basic manicure that lasted maybe 5 days before I got a little chip. I should have gotten the basic pedicure too. Just $20! Overall, good for a quick manicure. I'd recommend bringing cash as some places charge for credit card use. read more

I was talked into getting SGS extensions for $90 and told they would last 3 to 4 weeks. Less than 24 hours later, one nail already fell off. And no, I wasn't doing anything intensive that might have put extraneous pressure on it, I was just styling my hair. I am livid and want a refund. read more

Agata Nails - Got the set done for $90 at 5:30pm yesterday. One nail has already fallen off by 12pm today. - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

They took me as a walk in which I wholeheartedly appreciate but IUNACCEPTABLE ATTITUDE AND SERVICE!! At best zero stars. A gel pedicure 60$. Fine pricey but I have had 1 good pedicure here 3 years ago. Wtf was I thinking!!!!? 4 out of 10 nails peeled off in less than 3 hrs. They agreed to redo no refund was offered. Monica which I specifically came to sadly was the rudest person all because I asked for it to be corrected. Even took a piece of skin off and huffed and puffed for her error. See the photos don't waste your time of money. read more

Warning- this is a little graphic - Waited 15 mins after arriving with an appointment, in the small, cramped salon. Sit down for a pedicure and all of a sudden I look down and my toe and its bleeding everywhere after the girl was cleaning the cuticles around the nail bed. The technician didn't even say anything and was frantically trying to clean it up. Then, smudged the other bit of the toe which I didn't even notice until i was trying to clean up the blood myself. Although it was only $16 for a pedicure, you get what you pay for. Small, crowded and cramped salon, which was also a bit dirty, and poor service. read more

Thrilled with the service here. The most important thing to me is a clean paint job. My cuticles are cleaned up and my polish is clean, no choppy edges or bubbles. Walked in on a Saturday afternoon before the holiday, and I only waited 10 min. My mani was done in the pedi chair since it was crowded and I was okay with this. The salon is small, but they make it work. Everyone is pleasant. Fair prices, excellent job. Will gladly return. read more

I had gel extensions done and the technician did a great job. She was kinda rough when she took out my cuticles but I didn't mind it. She was very thorough with her job. She shaped my nails the way I wanted it. The price was reasonable in the Astoria area. I came by here without an appointment and they gave me the next available time which was 3 hours later but I live nearby so it was alright with me.

Perfectly filed, shaped, cleaned, polished and overall executed manicure. The ladies are friendly, but get down to business with little to no chatting at all. I described the color I wanted and one of the girls located it immediately. I am so happy with the results that if I'm ever in the area again I would definitely go back. Highly recommend! read more

Very easy to make an appointment! $30 for a gel mani, $20 for a regular pedi. I can't justify paying $70+ for these services so definitely on the cheaper side for Astoria. Mary worked on me and as you can see, she did such a clean job. I recommend:) read more

I've always gone to Monica, but through the years I've tried each technician and they've all done a great job. The only downside is the wait. But it's well worth it! read more

3 Weeks in and they still look like I got them done just a couple days ago! Love love love this place and highly recommend anyone who needs perfect nails for imperfect weeks. The people there are so lovely, respectful and sweet. I would advise to call ahead, especially for any gel fillings (which I get). I work with my hands and it never chips off, strong and cute! During the week, in the middle of the day it's not crazy pact BUT still call. They are so good that it's worth the wait. read more

Agata Nails - Gel Filling (done 3 weeks ago) - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

The shame of this review is that the woman who did my nails (Rosa) was extremely thorough. However I am immediately turned off when costs and prices aren't given to the customer in the beginning. I was quoted a price of $35 for a powder gel manicure over the phone yesterday. When I got to the salon I discovered they had only one small wheel of colors available and none of which were appealing so I opted for a color gel manicure which had much nicer options. There was a barrier in terms of language and perhaps I didn't understand that the pink color I asked for would need a glitter overcoat but anyway -- it comes time to pay and she tells me it's $40! What?! I usually pay $40 for powder gel in other salons and this was color gel so I asked her to explain - she told me it was $7 to remove the powder gel which is insane seeing as I was getting a service done there and then she tells me that the ONE PINK GLITTER FINGER - one!! - was $3. Not a design, not half my hand, one finger per hand was somehow $3 extra! I was so utterly turned off and frustrated beyond belief because I had specifically budgeted cash for the cost I got as $35 (and seeing as a color gel is listed on the board as $30 I knew I'd have way more than enough to tip). I had to instead pay an extra ten dollars that was not quoted upfront - which is sneaky and underhanded - and had just enough for a tip. This is unacceptable and these shady business practices are not cool especially when people are budgeting for me-time during a pandemic. Unfortunately I will not be able to set foot in an establishment that treats customers (and maybe they just do this to unfamiliar faces like mine) like this. Avoid if you actually appreciate honest businesses. read more

I was searching for a place nearby to get a pedicure for my birthday because I rarely get a pedicure, only on special occasions. So of course I searched on yelp. This place received raving reviews. So of course, I had to check it out for myself. I arrived and waited for about 5 minutes. Not so bad. It's a small place but very clean. There are 3 massage chairs where you sit for a pedicure. It was nice to get a massage and I think 3 stations where you get a manicure. They have a good enough selection of nail polish, however I brought my own. The woman was very nice and friendly. I first asked for a regular pedicure but 5 minutes later I changed my mind and asked for the mint spa pedicure. I'm glad I did. She took her time and did a perfect job on applying the nail polish on my nails. After this experience, I think I will be getting a pedicure more often now. read more

Agata Nails - Acrylic Tips - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

Agata nails has been one of my personal favorites for a while now. Every single time I've gone there I have left happy and that's extremely rare for most nail salons to do. The staff is always super sweet and takes their time to really make you feel pampered. The amazing nail job they do just tops it all. Keep in mind the place is super small so I definitely recommended making an appointment ahead of time! read more

I went to Agata's simply because of the wonderful Yelp reviews it received. Truly, I was not mislead. I went to the salon at around noon on a Wednesday. There was only one other customer having her nails done, so there was no wait. (By around 1:30pm, however, there was already a line forming. It got crowded fast.) I'm not sure of the name of the woman who took care of me, but she was excellent. I had a pedicure and leg/foot massage for $35, which was definitely what I needed as I'm 9 months pregnant and super tired and extremely swollen. :) She took her time, was very thorough and really pleasant. My legs were no longer swollen by the time I left because her massage was that awesome. I also had a shellac manicure which cost $20 and was done beautifully. Again, she took her time, never rushing and made sure my hands, cuticles and nails were just so. She also rubbed my shoulders and neck while my nails cured in the UV dryer. Seriously, it was worth every penny and though it may have been my first time at Agata's, it definitely won't be my last. Just an FYI, many other clients were having more simple manicures done and the prices were VERY reasonable from what I was hearing (ie under $10). I live on the absolute other end of Astoria (near Vernon) and this will be my go to place from now on! read more

Just moved up the block so decided to stop in for a manicure on a Saturday afternoon. I'm giving this place two stars SOLELY for the price and the fact I didn't have to wait. The quality of my manicure is so poor, I have nail polish all over my cuticles (the same cuticles I had to ask several times to be cut). I had to ask for extra coat of polish because it was so streaky but she was ready to put top coat. don't even bother coming here, they aren't friendly and they're not good. Anyone who thinks this is an acceptable manicure shouldn't be doing manicures! read more

Agata Nails - Terrible paint job! - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

I've been coming here for almost two years now. I've had nothing but great results. I've had regular mani/pedi, massage, and gel mani/pedi. All were great experiences. I especially love the mint spa pedi. Yes the place is small and yes you may have to wait sometimes, but you'll leave this place happy!! All the ladies are really nice and talented. I actually tried another place this morning and walked out!!!! This is my go to place and I don't think I'll be heading anywhere else anytime soon. The prices are also unbeatable. read more

Awful customer service. One of the new girls (Maria) massaged the top of my foot so hard while she was giving me a pedicure that I was limping the next day. She also cut me too deep and made me bleed. I went back in and was very polite and explained the situation and the manager got really upset with me and told me I was lying and basically kicked me out of the store. They lost a customer. How sad. So yeah 10/10 would recommend if you like pain and atrocious customer service. read more

I came in and was told to wait 20 min. I came back in 20 min, waited another 5 mins and I finally asked if there was still a wait. She then tells me another 20 mins. They didn't even tell me but wanted me to wait. It's rude to not tell the truth in the first place. read more

So after reading some reviews, I can see I am not the only LONG TERM client whose business is unappreciated by Agata nails. I almost never write reviews but the way they treated my 14 year old daughter today definitely warrants one... Ive been going to Agata since they first opened abt 10 years ago. Since my daughter has been in Kindergarten, Ive been bringing her with me. She would get a quick mani while she waited for me. My daughter is now in highschool. 10 years we've been bringing our business to Agata. I've always praised the cleanliness of the shop, and recommended their work to friends some of who are now also current clients. They were very friendly as well. Please note, I wrote WERE. Also, any time you call to make an appt, they are never ready when you arrive.  This past June (2021) I made an appt for my daughters graduation. When we arrived they were busy with other clients. I don't mind waiting a little bit, I know things happen, but we ended up waiting almost 2 hours. During the wait, a man walked in and sat down right away for a pedicure. When I complained, the condescending remarks started in spanish and the man was answering his tech in English. He thought he was some kind of VIP. I know they were responding to me bc I could understand most of it. However, they wouldnt acknowledge me, or that we had been waiting for a over an hour. My daughters graduation was the next day, I had other errands to run and they took up my time. I knew most places nearby were also booked due to the time of year so I didnt want to make her leave. I was trying very hard not to let her down. Some classmates were there also waiting, so we tried to make the best of it. (One of her classmates was a walk in) Our 3pm turned to 430. She got her nails done, but I did not bc I would have had to wait for her to finsh, and I would have never made the dry cleaners. But as long as she got hers done, it was her day.   Fast forward to Dec 2021.  My daughter wanted Acrylics for the holidays. I allowed her to go without me because I had another appt. I sent her in an Uber with her friend.  Uber had wrong pin location, and she ended up 10 minutes late. So Agata gave away her appt. bc she didnt call. BUT, wait for it.... I made the appt, my daughter didnt know she had to call, and I didnt know she was running late or I would have called on her behalf. They told her she had to either wait for the lady who took her appointment to arrive and ask for her spot back, or come back the next day at a later time. I told my daughter just make a new appt, but then I realized wait, where is the Acrylic nail lady now? She was doing someone else's nails! So, had my daughter arrived on time she would have had to wait for that person to be finished anyway bc they were running late! Good business practice, you already have someone in the chair, dont overbook! I guess its ok with them for a 10 year, multi appt client to wait for 2 hours the day before her graduation, but she's 10 minutes late and they practically kicked her out.  My daughter was crying when she got home bc they were so rude abt it. I was on the phone trying to reason with someone for abt 10 minutes who couldnt justify making her leave so she hung up on me. And I also picked up on the other nail techs making comments in Spanish. Hello! Many light skinned people ARE hispanic and we can understand you!  I guess its ok as long as they make the $$.  They dont care about customer loyalty. I gave my daughter $100 and told her to add $20 for a tip (bc its the holidays). So Acrylic nail lady lost that tip, and Agata lost our business and our referrals from now on. (Oh and I am a really generous tipper). Sad, bc my daughter used to feel very comfortable going there after all this time, but ever since covid they have a terrible attitude and don't have any people skills. Agata nails need to learn how to appreciate ALL of their customers and to be more accommodating!They are greedy and unprofessional! Their business is thriving bc of returning customers, and neighborhood support. And since they make people wait on them when they are running late, (by more than 10 minutes) they should be a little more understanding. I will find another salon and I will be telling everyone I know how we were treated by Agata nails for the THIRD time. Again, I am not a complainer, but other reviews say the same thing. Shame on you Agata Nails! read more

Glad to have found a nail salon closer in the neighborhood. Beats having to walk all the way to under the train (which is the only other place I'll go for gel manicure). The gel manicure and pedicure both came out excellent. The other reviews are accurate: the place is small, with three pedicure chairs only. But the results are just as great as a bigger, busier place.. And closer! Prices are standard: gel manicure was $27 (plus $5 for the design in the picture) and pedicure was $16. I walked right in (at 12pm on a Wednesday), but according to the other reviews there is usually a wait. With the three chairs only, not a surprise.. Worth it! Ask for Mary! read more

Torn between 2 and three stars, but going with 2 because my toe still hurts! Small but cute space. No, really small. I walked in and had to wait about 15 minutes which is fine. But the girl that did my mani/pedi was so rough. My toe still hurts from her cutting my cuticles. Prices were average for the area. Probably wont go back. read more

Honestly I wish I could rate this place 1 star!! but only because I don't want more people checking it out lol. As the other reviews said this is a simple, small nicely decorated nail salon with 3 manicure tables and 3 pedicure massage chairs. I was in desperate need of a pedicure last week and decided to check this place out after hours of browsing yelp. There are a variety of OPI & Essie polishes and they sanitize their equipment. Now, my pedicure....So no exaggeration but this the BEST PEDICURE EVER!!!!! The massage chair was awesome & Nuve was the one to do my nails. She took her time scrubbing/cleaning/massaging/moisturizing my feet and when my nails were drying she gave me an additional mini neck massage which I loved! My nails still look great a week later and all for 14$. I'm definitely coming back! read more

Just an update. This is still my favorite salon. However don't let the new worker paint your nails. Your nails won't come out the way you want them to and the pedicure well definatly be the most painful you've ever had. All of the other manicurists are absolutely perfect. It's just the new young girl. Avoid her at all costs. I suggest coming back later if she's the only one available. read more

I typically get my nails done at Blossom, but I've been looking for something a little closer to home. Agata Nail fits the bill, so I popped in here for a mani/pedi on a Thursday night. The place is really small (only 3 manicure stations and 3 pedicure chairs!), but I was the only customer in the place and I was very well taken care of. They had a pretty good selection of Essie and OPI polishes. My technician was really thorough and cognizant of my preferences. I paid $21 + $4 tip -- money well spent, I say! AND they take credit cards, yay! I'm leaving 4 stars instead of 5 because my massage chair wasn't working, but I still managed to have a relaxing experience. Another weird thing is that their power flickered a few times while I was there. The owner apologized and said this has been happening occasionally and she has been working with the power company to get it resolved. read more

This is a brand new place, so new that it still has the grand opening sing up. It's a super small place - there are only 3 manicure stations and 3 pedicure chairs. However, everything is still brand new and really nice. There's a small bench by the front window for you to wait. This place is pretty much a straight up nail salon, not a spa. No TVs or fancy artwork on the walls, just the radio playing. However, there are a lot of nail colors (yay!) and multiples of each color, which is nice. When I came in, they pulled the tools right out of the sterilizer, which is always reassuring. I went in for a pedicure and got comfy in the brand new pedicure chair and promptly turned on the massager. I got through 2 cycles, so they do take their time. I told her I liked my nails short & more square, so she went hardcore with the nail file, which felt a little awkward but the nail looks fine and the pedicure looks great. They use the razor file for my heels, so now my heels are nice and smooth. It's hispanic-run, unlike most of the nail places along 30th Ave. My pedicure experience reminded me of Blossom in Astoria (which is high praise, really) only the budget version of that place. For $14 for the basic pedicure, I got a nice pedicure (it's been almost a week and no chips or anything!) with the heels filed then wax to soften, leg massage, and when I sat at the dryer, a shoulder massage. Given that this place is so much closer to my apartment than Blossom, it'll probably be my go-to from now on. read more

I went to Agata Nail salon to get a gel manicure and was super happy with their service. The place itself is very small but very clean. I walked in with no appointment, it was full and every one was with a client but only had to wait about 10 mins. Once I sat down the lady who did my nails (I wish I would have gotten her name) cleaned, filed/trimmed my nails and cut my cuticle. Everything was done so well with no pain or cuts. Their gel manicure goes for about $25 which is average and everyone there is nice and polite. Definitely recommend the place. read more
