    I was at Perfect ibrow and saw this nail shop and decided to go in, I hadn't got my nails done in a very long time. I think the owner was very nice and friendly she did my nails and was very patient. I liked them and would definitely return.

    After many years of going to this salon for a simple manicure I must honestly say I will never go back again.... I am currently at Cedar Sinai with a nasty foot infection from a pedicure that I received last Saturday. What makes this so ironic is I was here a year ago for the same thing from the same salon. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. Clearly the issue is with cleanliness in their pedicure tubs.... They apologized when it happened the 1st time last year but this is getting beyond ridiculous. I am in the emergency room now and my foot looks like a football and I am in extreme pain... NOT COOL!!! My Attorney will definitely be contacting Express Nails this time around. -Reggie Jenkins

    Express Nails is under new management. I have been going to Kanya and Mimi for over a year. Kanya always delivers on the manicures and Mimi is so detailed with her pedicures. I was going to them at a different salon and have followed them here. Everyone is super friendly. Ala the manager is very welcoming and accommodating.

    THE BEST NAIL SALON IN RIVERSIDE! After much search and horrible nails, I FINALLY found my go-to salon! They're professional, nice and their attention to detail is great. Crystal did my full-set and she was a doll! She knew exactly what she was doing. Nancy did my pedicure and she was fabulous. They offer complimentary beverages, even alcohol options! Thank you for amazing service, see you in 2 weeks :)

    Well... I came in wanting some nails but work doesn't let me have long nails. So Crystal booked me up on some medium length nails that I adore so much. Tried out a rainbow pastel colors and I adore literally !!!

    They do really good nails! First time here got a fill w gel for 30$ & got my toddler nails & feet done $10 superrr cheap! P.s Just don't do your eyebrows here

    These were the nails I got

    I wanted to get a certain set done and I asked if they could do it and they said yes, my nails look nothing like the picture and because of that I will not be coming back they costed $55 for some nails that I didn't want, they were nice so I didn't want to complain but that's the last time I'm coming back unless it's for some basic color with no design

    Crystals work! Perfect nails for my Christmas party they are matte!

    This was my first time there and luckily Crystal was able to do my nails. I showed showed her a picture of how I wanted it done and she did exactly that. I left really pleased at her work and will be booking her for future nail appointments.

    They were really sweet. I will admit I came in almost an hour and a half before they were gonna close and I got a full set but there weren't many people inside. So I went in with another person and I let them get seated first then I waited for about an hour. Let me just say that I have short nails cause I bite on them so I know it's harder for them to do my nails. The lady finally seated me but she took one look at my nail and didn't come back to tell me anything and just left me there to wait again for 30mins. Finally another lady finish another client and apologized for the wait. I respect that she apologize. Like I said they were really sweet. Anyways so my set was basic I wanted coffin shaped to a medium-long length. But these do not look like the nails I wanted. I'm disappointed with the outcome of it and the whole experience I will not be coming back here again.

    I've been going here since I was a little girl. They are very friendly and make sure your nails look bomb. I also bought this watch from there.

I did mention "I might had been over reacting" however after thinking and going over it all, No I don't believe I did. When your staff notice my pinky I fully let her know I've had an issue from previous yrs and I had been on medication, at the point she should have said I'm sorry salon policy is we might refuse service let me talk to my manager he has the last call. Instead what happens was she asked her coworker not once but twice and then with out even as an excuse me I'll be back she got up to talk to you. That's before she kept asking her coworkers on the steps on how to proceed with a pedicure. In my review I did mention you try to resolve but when you loose trust how can you?

    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.

This review is especially for Leda, Quinn, and Kim -- they are not only incredibly talented, but also some of the most caring people you'll meet. Leda first recommended I try hybrid gel nails, and I haven't looked back since. Not only do they look amazing, but my nails last for weeks without any issues -- no lifting, no chipping, just consistently beautiful results. All three of them have impeccable attention to detail, and their expertise truly shows in every set they create. No matter who you book with, you're in great hands. What really sets this place apart is the experience -- every visit feels relaxing, welcoming, and genuinely enjoyable. The conversations are always great, and they make you feel like part of the family. They also offer a wonderful selection of pedicures, and you can enjoy a beverage while you unwind (their Thai tea is a must-try!). I leave every appointment feeling refreshed, pampered, and brand new. I'm so grateful I stumbled upon this amazing salon -- highly recommend to anyone looking for quality work and an all-around great experience!

I love cooking Vietnamese food so the owner even brought me a special Lunar New Year dish (I think it's called Báhn Chu'ng or Báhn Tét). It was so delicious and so thoughtful. She even made me some extra to go. I live an hour and half away but I'll definitely come back to this hidden gem.
