From the initial conversation, I knew this place was professional. I was in town for work and needed to tackle my nails. Darling Nails did an amazing job on my Builder Gel fill-in. The manicure was thorough but quick. I also received a Foot Soak. Super cool experience. I wanted the massage over the pedicure so this service is a smart choice. I wish the massage was more of a massage than a casual rub but the service itself is quite nice. The owner, Alex, smiles constantly, greets everyone warmly and is super helpful. The technicians are also friendly and work well as a team. I even forgot my water bottle there - again I was traveling so when I realized I didn't have it, I called, got Alex, told her I had left it and she brought it to my hotel without hesitation. I was /am so grateful. I highly recommend Darling Nails!!! read more

I echo everything that Belen said in her One Star review of this place. I went in for a manicure and Alex talked me into a "hybrid gel" that supposedly doesn't have to be filed off like a regular gel. This was not true, it had to be filed off, and I will now be growing my nails out for the next year. When I went back for a color change I told Alex that my nails were not the same length as one hand had significantly longer nails, and that I hadn't received cuticle clean-up or care. (I didn't realize either of these until a girlfriend mentioned the "terrible job" someone did on my nails!) Alex informed me that it's my responsibility to make sure my nails are the same length AND if I want cuticle care I need to ask for it as it costs extra. This is odd as I thought that's what a manicure centered around. If you value your time and money, go anywhere else. read more

I came to Darling Nails to take my mom out before my wedding, and to get my bridal nails. I chose Darling because it looked a little more bright and cheery than other places I have gone to. And it was just as great as the pictures! Everyone was really welcoming, and they offered drinks during our mani/pedis. (I got a tasty Vietnamese Coffee.) They were awesome and really professional, helping me find exactly what I wanted when I wasn't sure how I wanted them to look. Unlike other places, I also felt that the polish was well organized and presented, and I did not feel rushed to pick out my coloring. It was a perfect experience, and a nice memory for my mom and I. To celebrate my wedding, the owner gave us a nice gift. I'm really excited to come back and try their massage packages. The massage I had as part of the pedicure was perfect so I am thrilled they offer that as an individual option. I'll be back, and I suggest you check out all the discounts they offer through the year! (Including a photo--the nails are beautiful, but my hands are rough from work, so don't blame them!) read more

I love coming here with my sisters for our little pedicure dates, but this time I came solo and it was still just as perfect! The ambiance was super relaxing (felt like a mini self-care day) and Dee Dee, who did my toes, was SO gentle and sweet. She really took her time and made sure everything looked perfect. I left feeling so refreshed and my toes look amazing! This will always be my go-to spot. read more

The place is beautiful, well-organized. The manager made us feel more than welcomed and everybody is friendly. But that doesn't help the quality of service they provide. We got Gentle Pedicure $45. It came with all the basic care, callus removal, sugar scrub, hot stones, massage, paraffin wax. The guy tech that did my pedicure was gentle to one point I think he's too new. He ignored the callus on my big toe which I think was obvious to see. The sugar scrub took 1 minute, massage took 3 minutes. He went to grab paraffin wax, hot towels and proceeded to soak my feet in the wax then wrap my legs with hot towels. The moment he finished with wrapping the hot towels, he removed the paraffin wax right away??? So the wax stayed on my foot for about 1 minute, same as the hot towels. The owner can check the camera if you want to clarify timing. No where have I ever been to have a pedicure that the treatment doesn't look rush because he's super slow, but nothing feels like a treatment. Worse than all of this, my toe got painted horribly. If it's just a bad egg, please get rid of it instead of playing with people's time and money. If he needs practices, go to beauty school. read more

In town for work and needed a quick mani/pedi. Gave them my time frame and they did both services at the same time to meet what I needed. The lady that greeted me was so nice and I quickly discovered she knew almost everyone's name when they came in. It was a joyful experience and the staff was super sweet. read more

Everyone is super accommodating! I let Alex know that I've been coming here for 7 years now and I will keep recommending Darling Nails to my friends, coworkers, and family. read more

I have been her a few times so far. The first time I came in because a nail salon down the street destroyed my nails. My nail bed was bleeding and my polish was chipping. I walked into ask if they could recommend anything. They got me right in and sat me down. They explained everything and my nails are healed a few weeks later. They took their time and gave me a full set while my nails healed. Then I came back for a pedicure and had the top notch experience. I can not say enough about this salon. It is clean, friendly, lots of options, and they work together to provide the best experience. I will for sure keep coming and will bring all my friends and family here when in town! read more

Visiting Darling Nails Salon was hands-down one of the best self-care decisions I've made. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism. The receptionist Hieu was an absolute gem--friendly, efficient, and made check-in feel effortless. He even helped me choose the perfect nail service based on my style and schedule! The nail technician Tover was incredibly skilled and attentive. She listened to what I wanted and added creative suggestions that took the design to the next level. Her precision, patience, and artistry gave me nails that looked l really love for my Vegas trip and the entire time, she made sure I was comfortable and pampered. What really stood out was the teamwork and energy of everyone there. The other staff members created such a relaxing vibe: offering drinks, chatting genuinely, and keeping everything spotless and serene. You can tell that they truly care about their clients and work together seamlessly to make every visit special. This salon doesn't just deliver beautiful nails--it delivers a full experience. Thoughtful service, positive energy, and top-tier professionalism from every corner of the team. I left feeling not just polished--but genuinely valued. read more

Came in when they opened to get acrylics removed. They were quick, clean, gentle, pleasant and very affordable.

I've gone to Darling Nails twice recently and both times enjoyed my mani/pedi. The first time, they did both at the same time and then the next time I had the mani first then the pedi. I have pretty short nails and usually just want basic color, but I love that I can choose matching polish in shellac and regular. Last time, my shellac mani started lifting immediately, but I also did some yard work so I am blaming myself over the manicure. Overall, def a fan of this salon. The only thing I'm slightly "meh" about is that I think my cuticles could have been trimmed more, but honestly I would rather not trim than over-trim. I get a shellac mani and regular pedi for $60 before tip, which feels fair to me. read more

Sweet staff and amazing work! This time she did my nails based off my description and not a photo. She did amazing!

Was between coming here or KY Nails around the corner and decided to come to Darling at the last second! Walked in for pedicure on Wednesday afternoon.

Originally made an appointment for acrylic nails. Came in with a picture, I didn't expect it to be exactly like the picture but similar. I would say I am pretty satisfied but there are little touch ups or little things that I felt like could've been easily fixed. Didn't get to have much conversation so I felt very awkward and just spaced out. One thing is that the price shocked me. I wish they had warned that by doing what was shown in the picture would be $80 before doing so... Regardless, I would say not a bad experience but it wasn't a great one either. Would still recommend others to go and give them a try! (Picture below is the outcome of my nails!) read more
