I really like going here, close to work, professional techs and very clean salon. I like Trizzie, always accommodating with my schedule. I have been going since they opened.. and have recommended friends and co-workers to follow. This review was passed due. read more

Why am I paying $120 + tip for these crooked, messy, bumpy, discolored gel nails and a basic pedicure? Staff was very nice, but justifying this poor quality work - bad cuticles, tons of air bubbles, very crooked bumpy French art and strange dark splotches - at these prices is just wild. read more

Getting my nails done is very much a treat to myself. So happy I found this place. Great service and price. I will be back!

I've been going to Lakeside for over six months now, and it's time for a review! I recommend it completely: the vibe is always relaxed and cheerful, all the employees seem happy to be there, and everything is of the highest quality. And the owner, Trizzie, is a MASTER; I've gotten regular French, ombre French, cats eye.... all with gel builder, and it's always just perfect. She is so so skilled, I will never go anywhere else. read more

I came here because someone I know recommended it. I would say it's not bad and it's also not great. I got a Manny Petty, which was $50 for both a man did my pedicure and on one of my feet. He didn't even put a base coat at all. It was just a very strange experience. read more

This place is very popular, I myself enjoy the work they do. Trizzie keeps the quality high, but I have been helped by Jen multiple times and the last time she complained the whole time doing my pedicure that I broke her back, and I let it go. But I went to get a pedicure and a nail polish for my daughter, she chose 4 colors. She's autistic but regardless she was happy and ready. The Jen started talking to my 7 year old, annoyed, why 4 colors, you need to choose 5 next time. My daughter just was stunned with nothing to say. I was burning how mad I was but I let it go. Once again my daughter trying to make connection which is incredibly hard under already pressure from Jen, my kid said something about Halloween, and the tech snared back correcting her making her feel bad. I just told my daughter to just stay quiet, I wanted her nails done. I hope , Trizzie brings this up to her attention that kindness and respect is for every one of all ages and abilities. It's a kid just nod and smile honestly. For a salon part of the Toluca lake community it doesn't really give a warm welcome and I may be just one irrelevant customer but, it's not acceptable to treat customers in such away. My daughter was so happy for her nails, but the treatment was uncalled for read more

Came here a little over a week ago with my sister in law and mom to get dip polish on our fingernails. All of us already had most of the polish come off. When we have had dip or gel before it's lasted a month, but this time all of us only have a few nails with polish left. Very sad because I normally like coming here. read more

DO NOT BOOK THIS SALON. Especially with Tracy/Trizzie. This was the WORST nail salon I've ever experienced. Tracy/Trizzie (hopefully her real name), was my very rude nail tech. Before sitting down, I showed her a picture of the nails I wanted. I wanted a thin french tip on my natural nails through a gel manicure. Immediately after checking my picture, she stated that my nails were too short. I told her, that's alright, please just paint the design on them anyways. She agreed and got started. I noticed she wasn't dragging the white paint down to my cuticle like the picture showed, so I asked her to please drag the french tip down my cuticle. Then she said, this french tip will be considered a design, BECAUSE I wanted her to drag the french tip down. She stated she would charge me another $5 which I agreed to so she could continue with the french tip (or design?). As she painted, she would take 3-4 minutes breaks to go on her phone in front of me to text people. She did this 4 different times. I sat patiently, unable to do anything with my nail polish wet, waiting for her each time. As she continued with my nails, she proceeded to do it in a very sloppy manner. I had nail polish on my fingers and smudges around my nail. Each time I noticed, I nicely brought it to her attention. In response, she told me the french tip that I wanted was usually completed by painting through a template and airbrush. She was attempting to make an excuse for her sloppiness. I told her that I've been to other nail salons that would complete this style flawlessly without the use of a template or airbrush. Then.. she told me to "Go back to the other salon". I was so taken back by this rude comment that I told her I would. Then she proceeded to call me a DEVIL to her coworkers in Vietnamese, saying that I was messing around trying to have her to do a crazy french tip style from my phone. This was my last straw. I let her complete the design, then paid for her work. Then, I told her I would not tip her for how rude she was to me and how uncomfortable she made me feel! I am half white and half vietnamese (I do not look vietnamese) so I understood every derogatory thing she said about me to her coworker. Then, she had the nerve to tell me not to ever come back. Regardless of her frustrations with me, she should NOT have treated me that way. It was completely UNPROFESSIONAL, SLOPPY, and RUDE! I will definitely NOT be returning (bet she's happy!). (Attached below was not the exact picture, but the design I wanted) read more

I've gotten my nails done here many times and the woman at reception is kinda loud and "judgy". Last time i was there, she did my nails while her coworker did my pedi. She kinda acted as if i were an inanimate object and talked over me to her co-worker the entire time. Another co-worker came over and actually placed some papers on top of the pillow that was in my lap! I waved her hand holding the papers away from me but then they all started grilling me (which felt like a verbal attack) about a small cut on my ankle that i had gotten right before walking in. There was no sympathy or concern for me, more of a hostile accusation. I did not appreciate the unwelcoming vibe at all. And the Mani Pedi wasn't the best either. I do not recommend this salon. In response to Tizzie, Im not sure of the exact date, but this happened a little over a month ago, right before I left for a business trip. I sat in the first massage chair closest to the reception podium. Allen was doing a pedicure in the chair next to me. read more

I really enjoyed this spot! Got the spa mani pedi and the regular polish is still going strong a week later. Appreciate them fitting me in as a walk in. read more

My first visit to Lakeside Nail Spa and was very happy with the customer service. The place is clean and organized, and busy which is always a good sign. Someone greeted me right away and took me to pedicure. Yin did a great job, listened to my concerns and I was very happy with the results. read more

Super friendly staff! I wish they had more shades of blue available. With the way things are done, it does seem that the service provided is a little more rushed than other places I've been to, but nonetheless the results of the service is still overall good. read more

I came in on Friday to her a gel mani and had them done my Mimi. I left so happy! She shaped my natural nails so great. I've gotten so many compliments on them. I definitely recommend this place. Everyone is nice and the receptionist helped me select a slight shimmer topper for my nails and I loved it. read more

Second time here and I must say, they're really nice and very professional! Love the welcoming vibe and they do an excellent job on the nail service you request! Yen did my nails twice here (dip nails) and I'm definitely coming back for more nail dips with her! She does an amazing job and is very nice! They have massage chairs too if you're going to get spa treatment for pedis (that's a plus for me!). If you're lucky you'll meet June their cute little pup that manages the salon hehe, he's the cutest! I definitely found my go to nail spa! Come check them out! read more

Perfect nails every time. I've never been committed to a nail salon or nail technician, but I've been coming here for about two years and I'll never go anywhere else. Trizzie is the best! read more

Love the service here and the quality. My gel x last much more longer than any other place.

I have been a client here the last few months and my experience has been great. I just started getting gel x, the first set didn't work however I was warned by staff that it might not work on my nails. I wanted to try it anyway, The first week my nails started lifting, I called and Trizzie said come in I will fix them. I was not even charged for a full hand. Most nail salons charge you for every broken nail. Now my gel x have been lasting almost 5 weeks, just switching to a different glue. Honestly it depends on your nails, everyone is different. The salon is very clean and staff is always professional / honest and kind. read more

Amazing service! Very pleased and everyone was nice! The vibe is great here and also incredibly clean.

This is one of the most professional and welcoming nail salons I have ever frequented Their staff is very experienced and the shop is so clean , up to date and warm in feeling Highly recommend! read more

I live in the neighborhood and just popped in for the first time for a quick pedicure and I felt like the woman who did my pedicure was rushing and the gel wasn't curing right- so I have a weird fog on some of my toe nails not super shiny. Then the next day I noticed a in grown toe nail forming because she cut my nails bad. Super annoyed but they were nice people just not a great salon. definitely pay the extra to go to the nicer ones. read more

Love the colors here and they always have a way of choosing the perfect shape/design whether it's a gel manicure or full set!! They now have Gel X which I'm a huge fan of and have loved the sets I've gotten from Alan the last few times I've been here. Also have always had a good experience any time I've gotten a pedicure here, they're always pretty fast and I love how it turns out :) read more

Clean and super fast! I don't like sitting around forever at a nail salon. They did a really great job on my nails... I'm particular about the shaping, like oval (which takes more care/time) than the witchy/pointy trend that younger ladies Aetna to dig. read more

Rushed job and so rude. The application is extremely amateur. I had to ask the technician for multiple revisions because it was so bad. They took turns playing musical chairs to fix how terrible it was. The one lady who takes the appts is extremely moody and will be nice one minute and rude the next. It is quite shocking and really not ok. There are no amount of excuses that can constitute for poor behavior. I'm also foreign, it's not a language barrier or a misunderstanding. Rude is rude. -- Will NEVER go back and will tell everyone to avoid this place. Waste of my money and time. Huge lesson learned to stick with the salon you know, even if they are bit far. read more

I was able to get a last minute appointment. My nails look great. Good prices and very clean.

I want to first say that if you want your eyebrows snatched, this is the place! Seriously my sister and I come here and we never fail to leave with our eyebrows looking great. Of course, the nails are just as great but I never go anywhere else for the eyebrow wax. Much love to the staff and wonderful young receptionist who always squeezes my sister and I in even on our most hectic days! Going like 4 years strong coming here! read more

I am updating my review...I came back after the pandemic looking forward to familiar experience, but it is isappointing that the place is turning into a conveyer, where the goal is to push you out asap and take the next client. It didn't used to be like this, I genuinely enjoyed coming here because the techs really took their time...they did mani/pedi under 25 minutes. They charged 10$ extra because I picked organic nail polish for hands and feet...which is the cost of entire bottle of polish from one client - wrong. I do not want to recommend a business that became an unfair practice, with hidden and over inflated costs, without giving back quality, no matter how nice the owner is... read more

Soooo worth the price, the picture does them no justice!!!! Super cute, I got French tips with rhinestones and stars to match my dress for my homecoming dance. Also they did an amazing job matching my reference pic (my first time trying gel-x)luv luv luv read more

Always good service and work. Only take cash so be prepared, appt is best a start have a lot of repast business.

This place is the best I've ever been to!!! I get my nails done with multiple people, but my favorite is Tracy/Trizzie! Tracy/Trizzie is very funny and friendly. She does the best nail design for me. I like intricate nails at one time and simple the next and she kills it every time! I love how they are willing to stay late to do for me. I had an event to go to and was running late and I called them to apologize to them. They were very understanding and waited for me and did my nails without rushing even after their closing time. The salon is kept clean and everyone is nice! These are my nails and my set from before! I get the gel x and they last so long!! This is by far the best place I've been to. read more

My daughter and I received full set acrylics and pedicures. Wow! Great service. I really loved how my nail artist gave me exactly what I wanted: simple French tips. The service from all the staff was excellent. Aaron gave a perfect neck massage. The venue was clean and run efficiently. This was our first time here, and we will definitely be coming back. read more

I don't think I will go back to this nail salon :( 1st time I visited was okay, did the dipping powder with pedicure. Nails started coming off like around 10days... couldn't go in to have them fix due to traveling. so I called them on the 14th day as I read they have 14day warranty or something. The lady I believe the owner? Was nice told Me since it's my 14th day, she can't do anything but will give 10%discount. So I decided to give it one more shot and went in. The lady, I believe the owner or manager did my nails but was not very nice. I don't know if it was due to discount but don't offer me discount if u are not going to be nice. So here is the worst part i told her one of my nails has a mess up and my other nail is too thick, she got all annoyed and used the nail file machine to scrape off the polish but she scrape/files off so hard and I thought my nail was going to BURN OFF! I flinched cuz the nails were burning and hurting. So rude! Repaints and doesn't even file it down. Was already annoyed and my nails are coming off again and it hasn't even been two weeks :( wasted money. Don't do dipping powder here it won't last! read more

EXCELLENT!! Wandered in during a busy Tuesday night, and Alan graciously booked me in last minute ... (had one of those ridiculous "emergencies" that are SO not an emergency ... but you HAVE to get it fixed ;) Kind, skilled and speedy ... Alan had 2 new nails done in no time. The pricing was incredibly reasonable, too! $10 for two new nail tips with powder seal and polish. Beautiful salon right on the main drag of Riverside in Toluca Village... Was so pleased, booked in for my regular manicure the following week! Thank You. read more

Honestly, was not happy with my service. All I asked for when I made the appointment was SNS and SNS removal. When I came into the spa for my appointment I once again stated I just needed removal and new SNS but that I did NOT want a manicure. I did think there might have been some confusion when the nail tech started cutting my cuticles but wasn't sure since it was my first time at this spa. I ended up paying for it anyways because the service was already over when she told me what I owed but I was highly upset that I had said multiple times no manicure and yet received one anyways. And it was NOT worth the additional $15 for what I got. Very disappointed, would not recommend. Color was also not what I asked for read more
