I'm pretty selective when it comes to nail salons but Danfe Nails has exceeded my expectations. Not only are they meticulous, they are also so kind and truly take care of their customers. They always take the time to remember your name and go above and beyond to ensure that you are happy with your nails. Example: Lola did a phenomenal job with prepping my nails and giving me a dip manicure, perfecting every nail along the way. Unfortunately, I had a little bit of cracking within the week after (first time that happened) and she took the time to completely re-do the cracked nail AND filed/put a nicer top coat on all my other nails. They are truly wonderful and are my go-to in the UES. read more

Staff and owner are wonderful! My nails, not so fantastic. But the owner contacted me after hearing about my complaint and spoke with me and made it right. Customer service is everything now a days. And Wendy who did my nails was very easy to talk to, gentle with my hands and did beautiful nails. Sadly my gel tips fell off after day 7 and chipped after day one.... Do with all that what you will! read more

I'm new to the neighborhood and have been loyal to my nail place for 4 years but I decided to give this place a go and was extremely pleased. The prices were very reasonable; the salon was very clean and comfortable. My technician was super thorough, she didn't rush through my mani pedi like a lot of places do and I LOVED how she shaped my nails. The final test will be how long the gel lasts but overall everyone was very friendly so I was happy with the service. read more

RACIST - serviced white walk-in customers instead of me with an appointment I arrived on time for my appointment. A technician checked out my nails, told me to sit down anywhere and pick my color, and she'd be right with me. There seemed to be two available technicians at the time. Then two white ladies walk in with no appointments (I heard them say so). They were told to sit down and were immediately serviced. I waited 20 min sitting with my color picked but it was clear that no one was going to help me or was even close to finishing their service. I asked the original tech who greeted me how long of a wait it would be. She said another 20 min, which would be 40 min total from my appointment time. She suggested I leave and come back. Why should *I* leave when I had an appointment, over people who walked in?! I was the only non white person in the store so that's the only reason I can think of for this abhorrent behavior. As for the place itself, it looked dingy, they didn't use new tools/files from what I saw, and the color choices were limited - only one "ring" of colors for dip. read more

Getting my nails done is the one thing I do for myself every couple of weeks. I am so glad I found Danfe -- I get a reliable gel manicure and spa pedicure and am never disappointed. They recognize me, what my "usual" is, always remember to track my punch card and even gave a gift around the holidays! Good business! Please note: they take their time, never rush and always know to offer a shoulder massage. This is something I really love and appreciate the length of time I am there. Everyone on staff is kind and efficient. The salon clean and intimate. It is a relaxing time to myself that I look forward to! Miss you all during this time -- cant wait to come back. read more

Came on the Monday before Thanksgiving to have my dipped gel manicure removed and a regular gel manicure applied. The service was prompt and friendly--I was very happy the technician was so patient removing the thick layers of dipped gel by soaking my nails and not rushing the process by overfiling. However, the regular gel manicure that was done afterward was very subpar--maybe the worst manicure I've ever had by a professional. The color was bumpy and polish messily applied over my cuticles and onto my fingers even. I was pretty shocked but didn't have time to stay and ask for it be redone. On top of this, a week later it peeled off one finger already. What a disappointment. read more

Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name... and here on the Upper East Side, that place is not a bar but a nail salon! Walk in and all the ladies will greet you by name, the selection of colors is unbeatable, and a spa mani/pedi is only $26.50. Need more incentive? They give you a short massage both during the manicure and while you're drying. I experimented with many salons during my time in this neighborhood but Danfe had me at "Hello,Jenny" and continues to keep my loyalty after three years of bimonthly mani/pedis. read more

In an area with an abundance of nail salons where it seems like there is at least 3 per block and a new one constantly opening, it is hard to pick where to go. Let me make that decision easy - GO HERE! This is my go-to nail salon in not only the UES, but the entire city. Walk-in's welcomed here, I have actually only walked in before, and they take me pretty much right away every time, they are open pretty late till 9 pm, so I can go after work and I after I have done errands and things like that, they do a great job, they are very nice and they are SO SO SO affordable. The prices of this place are the absolute best, you will not find better prices anywhere else. They do $25 mani-pedi, a regular mani is $9, a regular pedi is $20! I typically always get a mani-pedi when I come here, which is what I got last night. Like how unbelievable is that. I can't say enough good things about this spot. It is not the most fancy/luxurious, it is small but it is nice and they do a great job. This is about 4 blocks from my apartment, and I always would rather come here, than go to the ones on my block! I have never had their gel or powder manicure before, but I saw someone getting powder yesterday when I was here and it looked great. Not sure on the price of that, but I'm assuming it's a pretty fair price, so think I will come back and try that next time! read more

It was very very warm in the shop and the drilling to get my previous dip off was quite a bit more uncomfortable than usual; however, my nails looked great after, so maybe this is just an example of the old "beauty is pain" sentiment. Note: this location is up a stairway and is not best for people who have issues with mobility.

Seems clean and good price but my manicures and pedicures here don't last more than 3 days.

Received the confirmation text with booking time. When I arrived, they seemed a bit confused. Lilly was not there and Rachel did my nails instead. I will say that Rachel is very meticulous about the nail shape. She filed, cut, ground, filed, snipped, ground over and over and I could tell she cared a lot about the shape. Spent almost an hour and a half building and shaping. I only chimed in a few times when I got pinched particularly badly. I asked for ombre and she did a wonderful job with the nail art. I have no doubt that these will last me a month or more and stay beautiful so long as I dont need to have them removed. However, its clear to me now that my nails were extremely overworked, and that I should have been more vocal about the pain and the safety/hygiene of the tools being used, as the nail file and dremel being used to grind the nail and cuticle were dusty. When I looked at my nails that night after going out for the holiday, I was bleeding. Now, after realizing how torn up I was, and trying to keep my fingers clean and dry to heal, I am unfortunately swelling and there is even some puss. This was not the same experience I had my first time at this salon, and I am not sure if I got lucky the first time or unlucky this time. Maybe my fault for not insisting on waiting to have Lilly again, and not being more firm about the discomfort I experienced.

Where do we start with this establishment? I've been coming here for about 15yrs..I was in my mid…read more20's when I was introduced to Cindy & Alex. When I first started coming here, they were very nice. They use to put a lot of effort into their work, The passion was there. However, over the years the quality of service has gotten worst with each passing year. First of all the shop is "Matchbox" size and can hold about 20 people including workers, you would think all the millions she's made there over the years she would have upgraded her space, cause the prices surely have inflated over the years. I use to spend $125 bi-weekly for a full set, pedi, eyebrows and lashes! Now the prices aren't even posted, YOU PAY WHAT THEY SAY! The gel selection is POOR & LIMITED, the "By appt" techs are sloppy and money hungry(Randy cut me twice) Did you know you can get an infection from being cut while being rushed out the chair for the NEXT PAYING CUSTOMER!?? ...But that's the shop as a collective and for the water down gel you slinging, y'all should be a bit nicer(In your profession & manners) There's no amount of wall paper or air freshener that will cover up this scam of a business. Cindy and Alex were a staple in the community, however they are TOO comfortable with mediocrity for me! I'm gonna take my coin downtown for a RUSSIAN manicure, where they cut your cuticles because it's part of the service. Don't EVER think you getting your cuticles cut(UNLESS ITS A PEDICURE) or a massage here!! NOPE! They would NEVER!!! Dishwashing liquid for bubbles, wild cuticles and stomped on GEL... this is not the 80's!! We want our gel PURE.. lol If this was 2001, I would probably recommended this business, but it's 2023..and I wouldn't refer them to my worst enemy! Customer service is key in any thriving business. Avenue Nails on Lexington Ave is lacking in that department. Invest in some NEW GEL ALREADY! Invest in a spot that can hold all 50 of us when you in there being careless and rude! That's the least you could do after all these years. You gonna lose all of your good paying customers soon enough Ms..waited 20yrs to put a credit card machine in the place cause you wanted to avoid taxes!! We're sick of your BAD SERVICE...and I'm so grateful for places like Yelp & TikTok where customers can let others know where NOT to spend our hard earned coin. 0 STARS for me! All good things must come to an end and this is the end for me! FYI.. Top Nails right across the street has plenty of room, a larger gel selection and they cut and massage & it's spotless! Go figure!!!!

2nd UPDATE - Aug:: Totally forgot review/left it alone. But a month later the owner left me a very…read morerude message saying that I should blame myself. Though I didn't see them thoroughly clean or sanitize anything between customers they simultaneously worked on in that dirty salon. She didn't even apologize for the bad customer service, the state of the place, the length of time it took for basic full set or overcharging for basic services they didn't correctly do. Not deleting this review now. Dear owner, deleted your message and blocked you... good luck sis, stay blessed. UPDATE:: took off my nail and got a freaking fungus infection..... don't go to this dirty salon!!!!!!!!!! First off. It took two hours to get my nails done today. Walked in at 10:30 walked out at 12:30!!!??? Ridiculous. At first told the wait was 15 minutes. But then they take other clients while they do your nails. The place isn't that clean and they charge for dumb things. I paid $10 for nail removal when they did nothing but soak them and I took them off myself. So I basically walked out paying almost $50 for very basic full set acrylics. To add to it the process was so long even after I explained I'll leave with a half job so I could make it to my plane on time.
