I really wanted to give this place five stars after my mani and pedi. The atmosphere is great and…read morethe people who work here are really friendly. I also like all the natural products used during my treatment. However, within less than 24 hours, multiple nails have chipped, and I paid extra for the gel manicure to prevent this from happening! I'm disappointed because I got them done for graduation weekend. Usually a gel manicure lasts me at least a couple weeks! ***Update: I did receive a phone call from Exquisite saying they would be willing to fix my nails and were shocked to hear this had happened because it's the first time they've heard of this happening since they introduced the gel polish a month ago. I appreciate their call and willingness to make things right, but unfortunately I don't have time to go back in with family coming into town this afternoon. I would definitely go back here again, just an unfortunate experience and bad timing.

I tend to make appointments because they do become busy at spontaneous times. I attached a picture of my favorite manicure from there. I highly recommend keeping your mind open

Made an appointment yesterday to make sure I didn't have to wait. I showed up on time and said I…read morehave an appointment at 11 am and they looked at me as if I had two heads. Had me sit and said nothing. I asked a few minutes later as is there a wait as I had an appointment she said 10-15 minutes I'm here on vacation and if I wanted to wait for an appointment I would have walked in and asked is there a wait. So I left not worth the lack of time

Loved all of the scents and could have easily bought the store out. Unfortunately for me I could not get downstairs due to healing from a fracture but probably a good thing for my wallet... LOL !!! Looking forward to going back. Prices were reasonable and I left with a bag full of goodies. Looking forward to using them

Wow, I am in shock that I did not review this salon sooner! Bijou was probably one of my greatest…read morediscoveries to date in the Syracuse area. I am a curly haired gal and- let me tell you- I have experienced some pretty awful haircuts in Upstate New York. Lots of places advertise curly cuts, "devacuts", yaddah yaddah- but they truly have no idea what they are doing. I can't tell you how many times I have had to go to NYC for rescue haircuts. ENTER JOLENE AND BIJOU.... if you want a great curly cut, this is where you should be going. Jolene is a genius- she truly understand the dynamic nature of curls and takes her time getting a lay of the "curl land" before she starts snipping. She starts with a dry cut to make sure she doesn't take too much... then she proceeds with the wash and dry process... and then- the grand finale- more styling at the end. She cut my hair before my wedding last July- it was perfect. And she just rejuvenated my mop of hair again today. I find the prices to be very, very fair. As an aside, everyone wears masks at the salon, and they check your temp and employ mandatory hand washing when you first walk in. If you have curly hair and are living in upstate New York/Syracuse, you must try this place.

From the color, the cut to the company she was a great hairstylist and I would 100% recommend her to anyone. She was so polite and personal and did a great job with blending my roots out. On top of it the salon was up to date, VERY clean and a great relaxing atmosphere. Go here!

I scheduled my appointment for a massage and had planned for a full day of rest and relaxation at…read morethe spa. My appointment was in the morning and I arrived about an hour ahead. The spa staff were very nice and took time to explain everything to me, since it was a while since I had been there. I found out at the front desk there would be a skincare event at 11 which fit in perfectly with my visit. I changed into my bathing suit, put on my robe and went into the quiet room, got some water and relaxed until my name was called. My masseuse took me into the room asking my preferences also any areas that needed more attention or to avoid. I got the Monet massage with my choice of scented oil. The experience was first class....my masseuse, Michelle, listened to everything I said. I went to the skincare event and came home with some lovely new items and a nice gift bag of products. I went back into the locker room to enjoy the steam room and the sauna. Then to the heated outdoor whirlpool ( they have a bar outside and a few light food items you can order). I knew I was going to have lunch overlooking the little bridge by the waterlily pond. The hostess was incredibly nice, it wasn't busy so we talked and she told me about the other locations. My French onion soup was some of the best I've had, full rich, flavored broth that was NOT too salty, nice soft bread inside and warm melty gruyere cheese. I had a turkey salad sandwich with bacon, tomato, lettuce and avocado on their homemade cranberry, walnut bread. It came with truffle Parmesan thin fries. The meal was excellent, and the service was great. Everybody I encountered was friendly, polite and helpful. The high level of hospitality was evident with everyone I encountered. The facility was clean and the entire time I was there all the little things were constantly being taken care of. Water refilled, dirty linen removed, areas wiped down, etc I can't wait for my next visit.

Growing up in Upstate NY, I've always heard about Mirbeau as being a top option for a fancy spa…read moregetaway in the Finger Lakes, so I didn't bother to look at reviews first. Sadly our experience didn't live up to Mirbeau's supposed good reputation. The gap between the price and the value of service was the size of the Grand Canyon. Our room was about $450 a night, closer to $500 after taxes. The rooms are pretty, even in the winter the view of the garden was nice. The bathrooms in the cottage rooms are spacious. Things went downhill at dinner in the attached restaurant. We were one of about 4 tables so it was a slow night. Our server did an adequate job, but the food was extremely disappointing. My fiance reported that there were bits of shell in all of his oysters. The cheese board wasn't very inspiring, for $24 I could have made the same thing myself at home after a stop at Wegmans. My filet was cooked wrong twice, after the second time where it came out still slightly overcooked I had it taken off the bill. My fiance finished half of his wagyu as it also fell very flat for him. Mind you, this was a $140 dollar steak entree, and the chef didn't even bother to salt the meat. We ended up having about half our meal comped and it was still over $300 to eat one of the worst fine dining meals we've ever had. The spa itself, like the rooms, were also just okay. The locker rooms are spacious and well stocked, and kept clean. One place that's lacking is that there's not enough waiting space for everyone. The "tranquility" waiting room with the foot pool is not enough room for people who are trying to lounge/meditate AND for people to congregate waiting for their spa services. It was awkward not really having somewhere to sit. My massage was ok, it felt more like a Swedish massage than it did a deep tissue. There wasn't any opportunity to request more attention be paid to certain areas with more tension (I told her my right arm is usually more sore and she kind of just ignored me and didn't touch that area at all). My masseuse said I was breathing incorrectly so I was too distracted by my breathing to enjoy my massage. We ended up cancelling our second night. I will never recommend Mirbeau to anyone.
