I've been seeing Kyla for over 6 months now. In my opinion she is the best in the business. I get builder gel and her attention to detail is unmatched, my natural nails are so healthy and long because of the work she does. I'm so happy to have found her! Thank you Kyla read more

Best Nails literally fixed my nails! I had a full set from another salon and was really unhappy with the shape and they were literally popping off. My nail tech at Best Nails was super kind and spent so much time reshaping my nails and being so detailed about how they looked. I felt so cared for as their client and was SO HAPPY with how they came out! They're exactly what I wanted. I will absolutely be going back. read more

Kyla was amazing! Got a French ombré stiletto full set. Great attention to detail and very personable. Was my first time here and was surprised finding a place open that late. And I even got to enjoy a perfect margarita with the good ice. It was late, I was starving and was pleasantly surprised to find a large assortment of different snacks available. Talk about great service. Kyla and her husband own a a food truck as well I will definitely be checking out soon. It's way out of my way but I will absolutely make the trip again. I would absolutely recommend then. read more

Very relaxing vibe, great place to get a pedicure or a manicure! They have a lot of color options

This is one of my favorite places to get my nails done. They have a fantastic space and offer complimentary beverages while you are getting a pedicure or manicure. Today we even got to enjoy fresh slices of watermelon! What a treat. Highly recommend this place. And you can make appointments ahead of time if you want! read more

I went there a couple weeks ago and would NOT go back. It's extremely overpriced. I had my builder gel removed and redone and had a clear polish on top. They charged me $15 for a nail trim, the lady cut my nails short without asking me if I was ok with that. I paid $120 for this. The staff is also very not friendly. The salon is nice looking and appears to be clean. My nails look fine but definitely not for the price I paid read more

This place is a nightmare. They told me it would be 70 for my full set and when I was leaving, they charged me 145 for a bunch of things they didn't even do. One of my nails broke off within a week. I do not recommend this place. read more

Clean, cute and great service! I had a gel mani/pedi and was very happy with the results.

10/10 service. super nice and quality work! I would definitely recommend to my friends and family

I have come here a few times and every time I have had amazing service. They have never rushed and strive to create what you want in terms of nail design. I regularly bring friends to have a relaxing spa day. read more

Had the best experience here! Kyla was so kind, gentle, and her attention to detail was incredible. The ambiance was so relaxing and the playlist was really nice too. There are so many polish colors and definitely made me excited to come back! I've been to other locations where the acrylic products can sometimes irritate my skin, but I didn't experience that at all here. Already recommending this spot to everyone I know!

I just moved to back to the city after a suburban hiatus in Happy Valley and needed a pedicure. This place is in a kind of odd little spot, and from the outside looks a bit dodgy coming from the Happy Valley nail salons, but what they lack in fancy blue lights and gaudy environment they 100000000% make up in service. It may have been the best pedicure I've had in Portland. I got their 2nd tier pedi and the woman who helped me set a timer and gave me a legit leg massage. They were so kind and the pedi was great. 10/10 no notes. read more

I was so excited about getting my nails done for date night! I decided to try out the gel X with a sprinkle design, and Ann did such an amazing job shaping them. To top it off, I got a free mimosa to enjoy during my service and even received a $5 off coupon for next time. I can't wait to come back and use my coupon for a Pedi. read more

Since I moved to Portland I've been searching for "my" nail place. This is it. They do an excellent job here. I have now had an excellent manicure (fill) twice by Kyla, and a fantastic pedicure. The champagne was a fun plus. read more

Absolutely terrible experience. I have gotten probably over 100 simple dip manicures over the years and have never had one so awful. When I showed up for my 11:15 appointment, there was not a tech available, so they put me with somebody who essentially pretended to do my nails for 45 minutes before the actual tech showed up. The new person seemed great at first but when I showed her the picture of my desired nail shape (rounded square which is essentially just a classic natural nail shape), she couldn't get it and not only was the shape wrong but the nails were lopsided. I had to end up filing them myself. Then, the dip was layered completely thick at the front and the back, leaving a dip In the middle so instead of having a natural nail arc from cuticle to tip, it looked weirdly sloped, like a valley. When I pointed it out, she said it was because the nails were short and filling the middle would make the whole nail thick. This is absolutely NOT true. I have typically gotten even shorter manicures than this and they have never looked like chiclets before. No undernail cleanup was done, glue was left on my fingertips, and the edges look jagged af. My appointment lasted almost THREE HOURS and my nails look like I did them myself in the dark after too many tequila shots. Took longer than my boob job. Will never be returning. read more

First pedicure ever, and I loved it. The staff was friendly, and there's even free refreshments. And I'd never thought my feet could be so soft, and my nails looks so great. Big thanks to Tina, who shared that she's been doing pedicures for 20 years. :-) read more

The new owner Kyla, a sweet 28 year old first time business owner is offering 20% off services for the month of June! Also FREE pick up/drop off within three miles of the salon, 2929 SE Powell Blvd! What? So cool! You just request transportation when you call to make your appointment. Of course they still take walk-ins and Lee and Holly still work here full time. New things besides the ride service are, choice of mimosa, margarita, sparking, red, or white wine. Tea to come soon! They have a new gel color line, and three options of pedicure. I got the middle priced one and was super pampered! I have been coming to Lee for 6 months now, for the great job he does with my tap gel French manis and am thrilled he and Holly will be staying on for the near future . Their new website will be up next week, June 13th ore thereabouts and rides to and from appointments can be requested there as well! Support this read more

Lowering my score since the owner is a LIAR trying to go against my original review claiming I was there here. Avoid at all costs. Lying is UNACCEPTABLE. They refused to do a design on my nails (I just wanted glitter) and were very rude about it. Our feet were itchy after, my partners have been horrible peeling since. We were cut. The massage I paid for never happened. This place will rip you off, give you horrible service, then lie about it. I didn't even ask for a refund or anything. This place was a huge rip off and I WILL NOT be called a liar on top of it. NEVER GO HERE. - update since they replied AGAIN trying to weasel out of this bad review! They claim "under new management" to try to get out of this but I came here BECAUSE it had new management in the first place. It's 100% the same "management" that was there when I came here. Again, don't support shady and BAD business like this. read more

I came here again because of my great experience last time but was pretty disappointed. I got the same service as last time, and bought my friend the same for her birthday, which totaled around $140. On top of this, I tipped $30, which is over 21%. I wasn't mad about the price since my nails lasted three and a half weeks last time. This time however, two nails fell off less than a week after I had them. Oh well, it happens, still wasn't mad about it. I went in and explained to them what happened. The attitude was a lot different though, very cold and almost irritated like it was my fault my nails didn't last. Not one word was spoken during this interaction which made it a little awkward. A day later, two more nails on my other hand broke off! So I go back in and this time the guy, I think he's the owner, was even more rude and chilly. Then tried to charge me $8 for fixing the nails, even though it was just over a week since I had originally gotten them done. Keep in mind I paid $85 for these nails with the tip, I was expecting them to last at least a couple weeks! The thing is, had they been pleasant during my service, I would have gladly given them the $8 and probably more. The four times I have been at this salon we were the only customers there besides like one other person. I get that your business is probably not doing so great because of Covid, but taking it out on well paying, respectful customers is not right. read more

I have had the best manicures of my life here. I just moved to the area 4mo ago, and I go every two weeks to update my shellac mani (only $26!) Owners of the salon do an amazing job (I think they're husband/wife) and the majority of their staff is kind, professional, clean and do an excellent job. HUNDREDS of colors to choose from. Two star review for: They have just hired a new tech and I've had the unfortunate luck of getting her twice in a row. I don't know her name, but I have given her two chances on a mani and it has been the worst I've received. The shaping is great, the paint job is terrible - bumps, bubbles, no straight lines (See photos attached). Polish isn't even. Bumps stick out enough to get caught on clothes, hair, etc. I can do better on my own, I feel like it is a waste of $30. I'm not sure how to go back and not request her. It's unfortunate. I hope they can see this and let her excel in shaping, but not applying polish. read more

I have had acrylic nails and regularly scheduled pedicures for 25 years. I have also owned a nail and hair salon and have been a professional makeup artist for 25 years including a stint as a Counter Manager at Nordstrom. I wanted to like Best Nails. My first experience was for a simple gel polish removal. As standard as a request as anything. They not only removed my polish, but used acetone which dissolved by full set (cost was $40 to replace with a new set and I went to my regular provider). The next experience (a week later) was positive. Good work. Fair price. No issues. Friday (after making an appointment rather than being a walk-in) I scheduled a fill AND a pedicure. I left before they finished the service because a) they cut my toe cuticle - and, while I am not a diabetic, it is NEVER good to have a salon cut your feet. #1 way customers get infections including staph and other high-risk diseases. Second, only two people in the Salon are trained to do acrylic fills and they were backed up. One actually went out of the salon to pick up their child. I get parenting and I get they had to go, but when the returned they took a new customer with "an appointment" rather than complete my service. For two back to back services - the expense should be around $80 (with gel) including tip. Service should be about 1 hour per service, so in this case 2 hours total. I was not at 2 hours and 25 minutes and the only person (the owner) who was qualified or permitted to provide my service decided to start an entirely new fill on a client - was I expected to wait another hour? Poor service. Shoddy concern for my time. Half-assed work. I have worked with a number of Nail Salons in the vicinity of Best Nails including Top 10 Nails on Hawthorne (they completed my pedi and full set on Saturday), US Nails on NE Glisan, Diva Nails of Burnside and NE 26th. ALL ARE VASTLY SUPERIOR TO BEST NAILS AND SPA. Don't waste your money, time or effort. read more

Oh yeah. This is the spot. I've tried various salons around Portland and they've been decent at best , but Le at Best nails killed it. Super nice, METICULOUS, and communicative. I love how Le checked in to make sure I was alright with additional charges rather than surprise me at the end. I originally stopped getting acrylics because I'm picky, but I'll go for it as long as Le does them! Super happy with the outcome. ALSO HOW GREAT IS THAT SHAPE?! read more
