Don did a great job with my nails - this was my first time here. He perfected the length, shape and design exactly how I described it to him (and he only had to see and hear it once - great memory!). You can tell he works hard, cares about his work and customers, and really listens to the customer. He constantly checked in with me to see how I felt about every aspect if my nails and experience. I also came an hour before they closed and didn't think it would take too long as my design was more or less simpler. But I underestimated how long it would take and I'm grateful that Don still took me despite likely knowing he would finish past closing. I wish I could have given a larger tip but money is tight right now.... However, I will definitely be a regular customer - they have my loyalty!

I have been coming to this shop for 3 years. Pedicures, manicures and acrylics. Always get so many compliments on my nails. Nancy is great! So creative. Dong always welcomes the customers in and frequently knows their name. Would highly recommend!

Love Dongs wife and Dong! Great service and perfect shape every time! Lots of options and they get it right every time I drive 30 miles to get my nails done.

Nancy did my nails and she's super sweet super kind and so professional. She knows that she's doing these came out super cute and only took an hour. She's very precise with her work and I hope she gets all the clients in the world. Love her

My go-to person is Nancy. I tell her what I want and she delivers!! I got my first full set with her in early November and all I've needed since are fills. These nails are strong, durable, and LAST!!! I've never had nails last like this. Great spot. Nice and clean, and don't forget to book with my favorite tech, Nancy!

No matter the style I want for my nails, they are totally accommodating. They come up with cool and innovative designs for my nails. They are also very friendly and welcoming. I come here all the time without fail.

I have been excited to try this place after seeing their photos online. All in all it was a great experience! I was greeted and seated quickly, I made an appointment for a brand new set and they did not disappoint. I showed a photo of my desired nails and May matched my photo perfectly. I loved her attention to detail, she delivered the perfect set! The gentleman who runs the establishment is also incredibly nice! The customer service was awesome! They're very attentive and kind. I love that they run promotions as well! I cannot wait to come back for a fill and a pedicure. I would highly recommend Candy Nails!

Don is very well organized with booking and makes sure that you're in and out quickly. Amazing prices , good environment, clean , and professional . Will be back soon ! Thank you

Simple perfection!!!!

Love my FRIENDS at the Candy lounge!!! Don is always kind & diligent to make sure every one of his clients are please with their services. They work together as a family & also make us feel welcomed always. My daughter & I have been getting our nails & toes done here for a few years now & we recommend them to everyone in Riverside!!!

I love candy nails. Nancy gets me right every time. I've never met a nail tech that made me wanna return, but she kills it every time. I am HARD on my nails and they never chip, or fall off. She does truly quality work, and I recommend her to all my friends and family! Give her a visit :)

Everyone here always makes my nails look great. Highly recommend to anyone! Always cleans me friendly

This business took $150 from me under false information and is now refusing to return it…read more I went in and asked an employee if they had a nail tech named David. I was told yes. I then asked if JaneDoe had a 9:30am appointment. Again, I was told yes. I asked if I could prepay for the service, and they gladly took my $150. There is no nail tech named David. There was no appointment. The entire transaction was based on misinformation provided by their own staff. When I returned to request a refund -- since no service was ever provided -- the person running the place, Ala, flat-out refused to give my money back. Instead, she tried to push a gift voucher, as if that somehow fixes being charged for a nonexistent appointment. She showed zero accountability, zero professionalism, and zero concern. It gets worse. When I asked for the owner's name and contact information, she would only provide a phone number and refused to give the owner's name -- even after I asked four separate times. She ultimately ignored me. @Simala, this is such a dishonorable way of stealing money, and your staff should feel shame for this action. No honor in your business. Taking money for a service that does not exist and then refusing a refund is unacceptable. The lack of transparency and the refusal to take responsibility is extremely concerning. I'm happy to share the positive outcome thanks to owners like this that have integrity. Thank you for being a great example of what a business owner should do. Thank you.

If you're looking for great quality nails, best designs and good service, this is the spot for you…read more Ask for Ala!!! She's been hooking up nails since we moved to Riverside from LA!! If you come with an idea, she will bring them to life. Shop is clean, the staff are friendly and will take care of you as soon as you walk in! You will not be disappointed!
