Best place ever. The cleanliness and the professionalism is by far the best. Everyone is very willing to make a customer happy ( except for one). Been going here for 15 years and will never change. read more

Erick has been doing my nails for many years. He is very accommodating and gentle. I love the family own business and it is a great location. Highly recommend King Bay Nails! read more

First and LAST time at this place. I'm only giving it one star because there was no wait time and I was assisted right away. However, that probably should've been the first indication for me to turn around and get back into my car. Note to self: If the place isn't busy, there's probable a good reason why! I specifically asked for an ombré dip and I was shown to the station where I would receive service. AFTER the nail tech cleaned my nails, I was told that he does not know how to do ombré dip and that none of the other techs knew how to do it either. Nonetheless, I SETTLED for something else. He didn't even get that right. There were lumps in my nails and they were very poorly done. read more

Haven't been to kings bay in while and I when came back I was welcomed with a new fresh look. They recently got new spas and flooring and it looks so current. King's Bay Nails is family owned and they are very personable with their guests and suggest colors for the season or a special occasion. I've been going there since I was in high school. If you want small embellishments, I strongly recommend Anna and Tao. read more

King Bay Nails - Loving this triangle French manicure. They make my nails look so long. Thanks Anna! - Nail Salons Near Me - Miami, Florida

I've been going here for many years. The first I called desperate was after a very bad nail manicure elsewhere. Diana saved the day and saw me late that day after 7 pm. I have been going there ever since and get the gel manicure. They are a Family owned business and very friendly. Now my daughter has started going as well and loves them as well. read more

I have been going to this salon for years... I moved out of state and returned this weekend for a wedding. When I walked in I immediately noticed how run down and dirty this place had gotten :(. As I came in the door no one said anything to me... no acknowledgement. I stood there for about 1 min before I said a loud and cheery "hello?". One of of the ladies finally looked up and said " what you want to do?" Blunt and curt. I explained I wanted a gel pedicure and ombré nails. The owner came from the back and said " we don't do ombré" she didn't offer another alternative. Just stated this and walked away. I asked her if she could recommend somewhere else and she said she couldn't. I'm honestly glad I didn't get my nails done there. The floor was dirty. The shop looked run down and crusty, the seats were torn, there was dirt and crust on in the floor panels and tiles...and the vibe was terrible. Save your money and go somewhere with better customer service and who actually sweeps and mops their floors. read more

I have been coming here for over 10 years and couldn't be happier! Gna is my go to girl but everyone there does a great job and not to mention super competitive prices as well. Large selection of gel colors! Highly recommend for all of your nail needs. Side read more

I have been going here for about 10 years. Everyone there is great but I love Erik. He is the best. Never had a bad experience.

Dear King's Bay Nails, Yay! I am a first-time fan. Wanting to try something/where new, and having you so close to my house, I decided it was time to break free from my routine and check out a new nail place. I am definitely glad I did, as now I have options. You are a much smaller, and quainter, nail salon that my regular spot, and actually found that to be a positive. My regular salon can feel like a nail painting factory at times, as there are SO many pedi chairs and nail tables. Here, you have just a few of each. So already, it felt more personable. Additionally, I liked the style in which the whole procedure was handled. From the moment I walked in, I was first asked to sit down to have my manicure. This was a nice change, and by the time my nails were done, I was ready to sit and relax in the pedi chair. The lady that did my nails was older, soft spoken, and very sweet. She did a great job with my hands and feet, and took her time to do it right. Even when there were a couple people in your waiting area, she never rushed me or the process. Same price, better service. I will definitely be back. :) Thanks for changing up my routine. Regards, SabrinaAnna* read more

First of all, they do do nails well but that's only half of the experience in my eyes. Getting a mani/pedi for me is a treat and supposed to be a relaxing experience but it was anything but relaxing. The lady who did my pedi was shouting and talking very loudly to other ladies across the room. I couldn't concentrate on the book I was reading. I was turned over to another lady for my shellac mani and she was watching a DVD on a portable player while occasionally glancing at my nails during her work. I felt completely ignored. I even tried to start a conversation after I saw a picture of her sons. No dice. Same shouting thing during the pedi too. All in all, I was disappointed but if you don't care about the experience and just want a good mani/pedi, then you have the right place. read more

King Bay Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Miami, Florida

I just visited this salon for the first time despite living here my whole life and now I'm kicking myself for not trying them earlier. They do a great job for a decent price. I paid $30 for my mani/pedi and it came out really nice! Now, in response to the comments: this place is NOT a spa. They are not there to completely lavish over you and massage you and all those extras. They do your nails, they do it quick, and they do it well. I personally like that style of business but if you're looking for a more relaxing, spa sort of deal then maybe this isn't the place for you. Want a quick, cheap, good mani/pedi on the fly? This place is for you. Warning though: tips can only be given in cash so make sure to have a couple bucks in your wallet. read more

King Bay Nails - My nails after getting them done at kings bay nails. - Nail Salons Near Me - Miami, Florida

Came for just a pedicure and they turned out great! My time is limited because I'm a working mom so I can only go to the places nearby that will take me very impromptu- I've tried many, many places in the area and they all have pros and cons but by far this has been the best salon for my pedi. Other places may spend more time massaging or doing the wet towels and all that, but your pedicure won't be very good. They did a fabulous job painting my nails! read more

Poor customer service. The woman at the front was rude and aloof. I'll get my nails done elsewhere.

Walked in and they sat me right down loved my nails and staff was very nice and loved Ana she was awesomeeeeee read more

I came on a Friday evening around 6 PM to get a pedicure. There was no wheat and someone was able to do this for me as soon as I walked in. The man didn't seem too friendly, but did an OK job on my toes. read more

Walked in and got a gel manicure with french for $30, which is average price. Nails came out great. The decor and massage chairs def need an update. Not the cleanest nail place, but they took care of me for the moment. I wouldn't recommend this place because it felt unsanitary. read more

It's like you call them and they don't even want to talk to you. Not really giving a response or anything just "ok?" As if they're wondering why you called as if they aren't providing a service read more

THEY ARE AMAZING!!! They are the sweetest. Mochi is their dog and she is so sweet. They do amazing nails. All of them do amazing work I usually see Anna. So what I'm trying to say is you will not be disappointed. read more

i normally do my nails up by doral but unfortunately had to cancel my apt i had Saturday due to a birthday party i thought was alot later but happen to be in the morning so the following day i was looking for a place that was open Sunday as i was in desperate need of a mani/pedi. I cam across king bay on yelp and decided to give it a try although there werent too many reviews and the pictures of nails seemed to almost all be the same hand with acrylics. I was so impressed and surprised how not only quick they were but good. Considering my boyfriend and i were walk-ins, we had to wait maybe about 5-10 minutes only and they attended us both at the same time. My only complaint was i feel he didnt really remove my cuticles all that well, but i still love the way my nails came out. I was scared to do gel just in case i didnt like how they came out so i decided to go with just a regular mani/pedi which was only $30 which is decent priced and normal but what i loved even more is that they did not charge me to take off my previous gel color, which more nail salons do if you are not getting gel done again. I'm glad i came across this place that is near by my home. read more

I have been coming here for a few months. Always did my nails with Ana. I called today around 930am to make appt , her mom told me she has available at 12pm . I got there around 1130am and told Ana I was with her at 12. She rolled her eyes with a huge sigh . She started talking their language with her . Her mom oh no she has to leave . Someone else can take u . And then she said oh she can wait for u. I told her no thank you. Ana was very unprofessional. Is not polite to roll ur eyes to a customer that has been going there for months . I will never go back. There are numerous places to have my nails done. Very unprofessional.will not be going back read more

Fast Facts about King's Bay Nails: * They do not accept Discover and only accepts tips in cash. Pros-- * Chino, Eric and Key (she no longer works there) are their best nail technicians. * They have a great selection of Essie and OPI. * A regular mani/ pedi (w/out french) is only $30. * Located next to Smoothie King and an awesome French Bakery. Cons--- * CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS!!! * They do not have a receptionist and they desperately need one. The owner has her 12-yr-old daughter step in every so often to do a job that she is not qualified to do. They need someone who answers the phone with enthusiasm and takes accurate appointments. Also, it would be nice to have someone greet you when you walk in instead of waiting for someone to hopefully look up and notice you sitting in the waiting area. * They need an actual "waxer." The owner triple dips as nail tech, receptionist and wax tech. If she's working on your nails and 10 people walk in requesting wax service, she will stop what she's doing and walk away from you 10 times. Same goes for if the phone rings, or if someone needs to pay with a credit card (since she's the only one allowed to use the credit card machine). * On the day of your service, be prepared to take the day off--- They have no courtesy for time and your appointment-- I could understand if the technician goes over by 5-10 minutes but by an hour and more, that is just inconsiderate. This happens too frequently to just be coincidence. And if you're a walk-in, forget about it! * Walk with a bottled water--- The owner does not provide anything to drink because she said it will hinder her from promoting business to the local businesses, who do sell drinks. Are you serious? You have customers sitting and waiting for hours and you can't even invest in a water cooler with paper cups? read more

The pedicure itself turned out super well. However, I'm pretty sure I brush my teeth for longer than my actual pedicure was. Granted it was a Saturday on a long weekend, but you're still paying full price for a full service. read more

I really wanted to love this place. My mother in law had been going to this salon for over 10 years before she moved to another city. The place is a dust blanket. There is dust literally everywhere. The technician's station was also covered in dust and clippings. Absolutely disgusting. I did my gel manicure and it was whatever. We got to the pedicure and 1/4 of the way through I asked him to stop and just paint my nails. I had told him that my nail felt ingrown and he started using the WRONG tool. I told him to please use the smaller tool and he brushed off my request, causing my toe to bleed on the side. He tells me "no pedicure? I'm almost half way done," and I tell him "no you're not, you're not even 1/4 of the way through," as there was no scrubbing, no clipping, no massaging. I also noticed that one of the other techs seemed to be packing a nasty cold - coughing, sneezing, sniffling, watery-eyed. I understand if someone needs the money they may feel compelled to go to work under those conditions, but it shouldn't be at other people's expense by getting them sick as well! The pedicure tubs looked less than immaculate. They also don't have a "quiet voice or minimum cellphone use" policy like other nail salons do, so I was stuck listening to some lady arrange her entire move by phone. I mean, I heard EVERYTHING. really annoying when you're trying to relax. The nail technician was nice, but that's about it. I also second the other reviews about the teenage kid in the front. read more

King Bay Nails - my nails look "bubbly"... If that makes any sense. I think the polish wasn't good. We'll see how long it lasts. - Nail Salons Near Me - Miami, Florida

I wish there was the option of 0 star's. Let's start from when I walked in. The salon was very well taken care of very clean which I can appreciate because I'm a neat freak. I was greeted by a teenage boy who clearly didn't what to be there. No hello, hi, welcome NOTHING, what I was greeted with was " what are you getting" I should have walked out right there and then but I was desperate. The women who I assume was is mother was no better, she ask me to pick a color which I did and was cold and also unwelcoming. She rushed like she had a line of people waiting which wasn't the case. I am a over tipper but this woman got nothing from me for that horrible service. I could deal with all of that if my nails would have come out decent. They looked horrible, so bad that my boyfriend noticed and he doesn't notice things like that. In conclusion STAY AWAY, I know I will. read more

This nail salon is really dirty. There were black hairs on the floor and the stations were not very clean. My manicure and pedicure were alright, but I have definitely been to better places. read more

1 star because I had to give a star....this place is horrible!!! Diana has the worst customer service. And all they do is yell and fight in their language. Tried it twice...NEVER AGAIN. read more

Eric is awesome. This was my 3rd time here and I have to say I am very happy. This is my new place

I've been going to this salon for over 6 years and love it there. The staff is amazing! It's very family oriented and not like the snooty salons that don't want kids or want everyone to shhhhh. They are clean and their work is on point always. I've gotten gel manicures, regular manicures, acrylics and pedicures and have zero complaints and I'm there every month! They are super friendly and treat you like family. I think most of the negative reviews are a bit much and exaggerated. Dirty? Never! Does it get loud in there sometimes? Sure! It's a busy salon! I'm not sure what you expected. It's not a massage envy..it's a nail shop! Friendly customer service and beautiful nails! read more

Came to my apt 15 min early have been waiting for an hour. Whats the point of an apt if you have to wait? I dont get it

I started coming here about 5 years ago because the other location I was going to was unprofessional and the manicurist were always in a hurry. Kings Bay Nails is family owned clean facility. They accept walk-in appointment which seems to be the way to go. Unfortunately there is no loyalty for customers with appointment. If I make an appointment and it's on a busy holiday I seem to wait for over 1 hour. Sometimes you make an appointment and they forget to write it down. They will accept walk-ins and continue with their service even though you have an appointment. It is not the fault of the manicurist but the wife and husband that run the business. Totally unprofessional! I will be looking for another location but it saddens me because I love my manicuris kindly known as "Chino". Chino is a kind man who takes his time with your manicure/pedicure. If he ever leaves that location I will follow. read more

I wish I could give 0 stars. I sent my wife here based on Yelp reviews. First off we aren't picky and we aren't highly critical people. In other words we are normally easy to please. However they did a HORRIBLE job. The pedicure - involved washing the feet and clipping nails - basically 5 - 10 minutes. No cuticle work. She tried to kill time by massaging legs and talking to coworkers by yelling across the room. The nails were a disaster, he cut them crooked, didn't remove nail polish from underneath the nail, he cut the sides, she requested square cut and he cut oval instead. She actually just grabbed the nail file and fixed most of what was messed up herself. At the end she had to pay for this and they had the audacity to request a tip. This place is a DISASTER!!!! read more

The place itself could be a little more clean. It was kinda yucky. Also, my biggest pet peeve in the whole world is a business that accepts credit cards but won't allow you to tip on their card, it's selfish and unfair to their employees so for that reason alone I'll never come back. I give 3 stars because my manicure was nicely done :) read more

This place has the worst customer service! When I arrived to my appointment they had cancelled me randomly and had to go with some one else and they did an ok job. No apologies-nothing! Not worth the effort, plenty of other places to go! This is An update: the people there are VERY RUDE! They speak ALL THE TIME in their language and I had a translation app and apparently they speak bad about the customers right in front of them! If you insist on going there, turn on a translation app which will listen to the conversation and translate...you have to put it on the Vietnamese language. I found a wonderful place called ND NAILS on Flagler and 99ave. They are professional, courteous, and very clean! read more

I live in Phoenix and wanted to get a simple manicure and pedicure while on vacation. I did a search on Google maps and found this nail salon which showed nearly 5 stars for reviews. I would give it a 2 for service and cleanliness. My nail tech hurried through both services and did a half-ass massage on each hand/arm during my manicure that lasted about 30 seconds each if that. My nails did look nice when she was done. My pedicure massage was also extremely short. The nail station and pedicure tub weren't the cleanest looking. Next time I come to Miami I will be going somewhere else. read more

Your nails will look great but the service is horrible, it's my 3rd time here. I wish I could give 1 star but am giving two because Eric does a great job and my nails look good. Usually Eric does my nails and he's great but today he was busy and I got another guy who was extremely rude. That's to bad! I should've waited for Eric because what happened will make me never go there again. Pedicure was rushed and he seemed impatient. When it was time for my nails, I needed a refill and had a broken nail. The guy started doing the refill WITHOUT fixing the broken nail. When I reminded him and told him I needed an actual nail (not just the refill) he THREW MY HANDS and stopped what he was doing and WALKED AWAY! The teenager who was in front came to see what was going on and after talking to him and me explaining what happened, she told me to go back to wait in front and to wait for another lady. Not only was the other guy rude, but everyone was shouting and talking to each other in their language. I was so upset I wanted to leave! When the other lady got there (supposedly the manager) I explained what happened as she started doing my nails and her response? "Everyone has different personalities. Next time make an appointment with Eric". Wow. Not even an apology. So much for customer service! Clearly nobody cares about their employees attitudes and customer service there is selective. On top of that they only accept cash tip. I will not be going back. read more

I was on vacation in Miami and sooo scared to get my nails done. I usually end up at a horrible salon that's not clean because it looks nice from the outside or got good reviews only to find out that all the insturments are dirty, and have dead skin hanging off of them and nail shavings already on the files.... YUCK! (At least thats how it is here in California, very hard to find a good, clean salon). I was actually so scared that I meticulously went through the reviews for the Miami nail salons and called to make sure I could get clean instruments. I was very pleased with the manicurist's response on the phone to my rather insulting question if they would make sure all of the instruments were clean for me. She said, "Sure, you can have new if you want." That surprised me. I expected to be barked at, but instead she was very happy to oblige. They made an appt for me within the half hour. I was on time and got a rather rude greeting from the grumpy teenage receptionist who looked like she hated her job, but I didn't take it personally. :)) I was kept waiting for maybe 20 minutes as they busily finished with the people already seated. I was told they would have time for me but I wasn't upset to wait a short while for a clean salon, and I did call only 30 minutes prior to coming, so I was actually happy they made me an appt on such short notice. They kept my appt and took me prior to the walk-ins. :D awesome! I believe Helen did my nails. When I sat down, I told her they said that I could have everything clean. She said: "Sure, no problem," and disinfected all the files with alcohol in front of me. I believe she removed the ones she had used for the girl ahead of me, got out a different set and then soaked them in something clear, I think alcohol, and then sprayed them with alcohol. She took the nail clippers out of the autoclave, oven thing and I got a different nail file. She did not disinfect the table or wash her hands. I know its not operating room cleanliness, but it was definitley the best and cleanest experience I've ever had at a salon and I felt comfortable that the level of cleanliness would ensure I didn't come home with an infection, or warts or fungus. S:o She was sooo great at her job! What a perfectionist! A girl after my own heart. I asked for nail art on my ring fingers, a big flower. She redid the flower on my left hand like five times because she didn't like how it turned out. I was actually okay with it the first time, but I really appreciated that she wanted to do the best job possible and didn't rush, even though it wasn't a slow day at the salon. A++++. Great job Helen! Wish they were here in California so I could go back. Awesome nails, clean (Im a germiphobe, so my recommendation says a lot.) :) read more

I have been going to Kings Bay Nails for years now. I also go to several others in the area due to "timing", but Kings Bay Nails is my favorite. They are good for several reasons, they do a top quality job, regardless of what your having done. I've been to other nail salons that rush to get to the next customer, and within days the nails chip, polishing is coming off, and sometimes the nail. Not this place - and that is what I love about it; Quality - fair pricing - and fast service but not leaving anything out. I do recommend you call and make an appointment ahead of time. Sometimes you still have to wait a while even with an appointment. But it's like that in most nail salons. read more

Great service and affordable!!! $30 for a mani/pedi. I have been there a couple times to get my nails done, and I will keep going.

I've been to so many nail salons that are overpriced and do a decent job. I will travel to Kings Bay from Coconut Grove for not only the fair price but the service. My nails always look phenomenal, clean, and groomed. You walk in and it feels like family because it is. It's really that simple. Getting a good manicure and pedicure shouldn't be a challenge. They aren't rushing to move to the next chair, they do what they need to to give you the best end result. I never want to go anywhere else, anytime I have - I've been disappointed and feel like I've wasted money. read more

This is my favorite nail salon so far! Ive been doing my nails there for a couple of years now and its the best so far.

The place feels clean and everybody is friendly read more
