I have been going to this little gem of a salon for 20+ years. They are amazing, take their time and have pride in their work. They still do acrylics with every design you can think of! Emily the salon owner is amazing, as are her daughters and hubby! I refuse to get my nails done anywhere else! read more

Hmm... so I made an appointment, got there on time and waited....My time is as valuable as anyone else's. No explanation, no nothing. I was there for the first time...mani/pedi. I was told by another customer to not have the male do my nails. So when he suggested I go to the chair for my pedicure. I asked who would be performing my services. He said he would, I said that for my nails I prefer a women. He says do you need a women for your pedicure too? I replied it doesn't matter to me. He then informed me that he is the only one that does pedicures in this salon, and if I needed a woman for a pedicure this salon might not be a good fit.....well ok...I reassured him it would not be a problem. Got in the chair for my pedi and let the water circulate until it was cold. I sat and sat while he continued to work on another client. Meanwhile his daughter sat in the chair and chilled; she is also a nail technician. Finally he did the pedicure and he did a quick and efficient job. I was pleasantly surprised. Once done, he informed his wife I was waiting. She continued drilling/filing something in the back....no customers in her chair. So I waited some more. Eventually she told me to come to her chair after he informed her a second time I was waiting. Once in her chair she did a great job. There was no conversation...no pleasantries. She kept repositioning my hands on the elevated stand because I am short and my arms could not reach that far. Very awkward and quiet. Overall, the quality of work is really good. But the atmosphere lacks warmth and the wait is too much. Btw the place is spotless. After this review I am sure I will have to find another place but honest feedback should help a little...js. A little kindness goes a long way. read more

Please don't waste your time going here, Emily is very rude, it seems like she don't wanna do nails. She did my nails and it didn't last for a week and it started looking like I've had the nails for months. She did anything on my nails read more

Went to this little gem today around 12pm today left round three. Pedicure and refillThe wait was a little unbearable but i loved my nails. Not as bubbly as I'm used to but they also do a wayyyyyyy better job then other salons I've gone to. Only first visit so hopefully I'm this happy each time i go. 2weeks later and they are still good read more

They care about your nails. They take their time. This is the only place in the area that I trust my nails with. I appreciate them not being so "bubbly" because that tells me they're not distracted. They take their work seriously and I respect that. Been to other places in the area, nothing compares to this place. The place is physically small and parking isn't the best, but if you're meticulous with your nails and don't want to go into the city - this place is the place to be. read more

It's very rare to give a nail salon 5 stars I have gone to almost every nail salon within a five-mile radius. A lot of them I don't even write feedback on. this one definitely deserves raves. Its small and parking isn't very good. But the job they do is wonderful. Prices are great. And when it came to waxing, technician was very gentle wax was nice temperature. I have very sensitive skin when they wax me use it rips the skin off. Not this time and I was barely red . as my notice of looked around the the shop. I seen it they had one technician just for designs. And they what amazing designs. And one woman had 3d design. A full set tropical cost me $24 waxing cost me 7 you can't beat that with a stick. I should be keeping this little jewel to myself. read more

Love it here. Only been here twice, once in 2016 for high school graduation and once just a few weeks ago for a college graduation. I got my nails and toes done both times and they came out wonderful and my feet were so soft. The employees are very nice and great at what they do and are easy to have conversations with as well. read more

I've known Emily for over 16 years and now her son does nails and he was AWESOME!! I travel for work a lot but will definitely come here when I am home! Thanks Richard! read more

Found this little gem 3 minutes from my house. I've been searching for a nail salon like this. I have been to a few around my neighborhood but this place is great! Everyone is very friendly and helpful. I forgot to get the name of the woman who took care of me but she was very kind and patient and my mani and pedi turned out awesome. This is going to be my new go to spot. Other pluses, the store is clean and the atmosphere is relaxing. The prices are very fair and they specialize in designs, stones, and ombré! They also do silk wraps and wax. The only downside is there is very limited parking (street parking on macdade). I will definitely be back! read more

Okay so I have ugly feet 10 years of navy life and nothing but combat boots in Iraq will do that to some toes. This place was so clean and awesome nobody made me feel bad about my boot toes and they actually looked human when they were done I do get my nails done somewhere else I never got a pedicure there because well I know them and I didn't want them talking about my feet!! Anyway I give this place 5 stars just for their professionalism and a job more than well done!!! I'll be back hoping they don't all run when they see me coming!!! read more

Great prices! They really know how to do nails. They just need just need to work on their customer service and it would be nice if you could schedule appointments because not everyone likes waiting. The place is very small. read more

The best nail salon I've ever visited! I'm new to the area and I've had my share of experiences already, so when I found Emily's I wasn't prepared for the great experience I was about to encounter. As soon as I walked in the door I was immediately greeted, and from then on I simply fell in love with the place. They have a wide variety of both regular and gel nail colors, and the design options are top notch and not pricey at all. I had the pleasure of speaking with Amy while she was doing my nails and she as well as the rest of the crew make you feel so welcomed. I'll definitely be back, as this has officially become my new home! read more

Love this place. I'm from the west came over here for work, and I just needed my nails done. I was sketchy about some places that I went to go see..but this place is a good place, she did my acrylic quick and neat, gave me a mini hand massage which was nice and it was cheaper than alot of other places I've gone. Down side is there very limited little parking. Other than that love it, you should definitely check it out. read more

Worst gel manicure I've gotten she rushed through the process skipping steps that I know every nail salon uses. Also I got a gel manicure and she used regular top coat leaving them cloudy, there was also a lot of extra acrylic left on my cuticles. I will not be going again! Don't visit if you have standards read more

Emily's nails did a pretty good job on my gel polish ( I don't like to her my cuticles cut so I generally get them shaped and polished with gel). And pedicure. They don't use the razor( we all know legitimate salons are required not to) however I was supposed to find out they didn't even use the callous remover either! Bummer..! Moving along, the technician did a marvelous job tending to any rougher parts of my foot with a pumice stone and file! I was very impressed! Two days later the pedicure is still very nice! Nails were exactly what I asked for. They have a nice selection of gel polish with corresponding traditional laquers in the same color. As well as a separate selection of just nail color without gel matches. Your not going to find your upscale run of the mill nail salon here, but they get the job done. The salon is compact.. so if you can go on off hours. I'm sure I would not like to see how it looks on a busy Saturday. Didn't like my eyebrows. I took a chance, I should have just waited for my tech.. but I really didn't want to go another day! Big mistake! I will go back for the mani and pedi.. but the eyebrows will be a "no" for me! Hence why they only got the 4 stars! read more

I love coming here. I usually go to NYC to do my nails so I decide to give Philly a chance, was disappointed. Told myself I will not do that again, until I had no choice. I saw this in Yelp and said ok here we go, let's see if Philly will disappoint again. Best choice I made. They are very attentive to your needs. I told them what I wanted, showed them a picture if it, and got exactly what I wanted. Not like other places. I love this place. It's small so kids might be a problem to bring if they're not getting their nails done. Emily kept doing what you're doing. read more

If I could put zero stars I would.. the worst nail salon experience I've ever had!!!! I Had an appt here at 5:15 I arrived early knowing I wouldn't be seated right away. I was seated at around 5:20 the lady rushed to glue my nails on then she just got up and left me sitting there for over 30 minutes! She left the salon to go pick up her kid!!! Absolutely unprofessional. I was there for almost 3 hours just to get a full set! Nails are all uneven and the women ran over my finger at least 6 times causing me to bleed. That's why you didn't even get a tip from me, your lucky I didn't make you lower my price for waiting so long. I wanted to try and new salon instead of my unusually and it was the biggest mistake. Never coming back here! read more
