    Gel mani
    Natalia B.

    LOVE Marina Nails!! Been here a few times now and my gel manicures have been great - thank you Alice, Julie, & Cathy! This is definitely my go to spot now. The prices are so good and I appreciate that they don't file down your nails too much in between sets.

    Fantastic!! Highly recommend, Alice does great designs and everyone is skilled and helpful!

    Alice is SO talented!! She's done all of my designs and I'm amazed and happy every time. Sandy answers the calls very quickly & is so gentle with her gel removal. I love this place & go back every few weeks. Also very reasonably priced for the Marina

    Alice did my nails for my upcoming Greece vacay and she killed it with the design! I'm so happy

    Fresh fill

    I love marina nails so much! Sandy is 10/10 the best for a fill! She is speedy and does a quality job! They always seem to be able to squeeze me in if i call a day in advance. They're super friendly and just good vibes only! My acrylic fills last me about a month with no chipping or issues I had been on the hunt for an affordable quality nail salon for acrylics and this has been my place for months now! I recommend it to all of my friends

    I'm delighted I found Marina Nails. The ladies are incredibly friendly, and honestly, it's one of the best services I've ever received. Don't expect anything fancy, but do focus on your beautiful nails! When I went last minute, they seated me right away. I noticed a customer getting chrome nails, loved it, and asked for the same. They do add another $10, but it's super worth it! The technician also fixed my broken nail to make them all even. I'd say another place would have just filled them all. I will absolutely go back and highly recommend Marina Nails."

    Marina Nails was recommended to me by a friend who gets gel with super fun designs quite often. I came in with a picture of inspiration and Alice helped recommend colors that wouldn't be sheer and match. They are busy here, so call ahead and schedule an appointment. You might need to wait a bit, for example I was 15 minutes late and that kinda pushed me to the next slot, but I was fine with that. They were super fast once they started!! This isn't close to me (~20-25min), but I'll be coming back here when I want my nails done again! I had some nails that were shorter than the rest and they added tips to even it out. You can't even tell! I'm super appreciative. They killed it. Gel manicure $35 Waxing lip $7 Nail design $3 and up My star rating: 5 - I would be a regular customer 4 - would go back again 3 - probably try a different place 2 - not very satisfied 1 - turnaround and run

    my new favorite nail spot in sf. was out in 30 minutes for dip manicure! so impressed and she was so friendly. Dip manicure w chrome = $58. Feel like pretty standard pricing for SF

    I tried Marina Nails on the recommendation of a good friend. I'd been having a really hard time finding anyone in SF to do acrylic nails and more specifically, do them well. I am so happy with my new nails! The length, shape, and thickness are exactly what I was looking for! The pricing is very reasonable and the staff is very friendly. I do need to warn others that there is a customer here that talks very loudly on the phone and does not have any respect for other human beings. After 5 minutes of her loudly talking into my ear, I politely asked her if the call could wait. She gave me a nasty look and shook her head. I asked her again several minutes later and she completely ignored me. The call went on for at least 15 minutes (and probably longer after I left) and was not urgent in nature. The nail salon is not the place for lengthy, non-urgent phone calls, and if you are going to make such a call, the least you could do is try to speak quietly. People go to a spa to relax, and I am blown away that this woman thinks the rules of common decency do not apply to her. I asked the manager to please never schedule me when this customer is coming in, and she said she was very sorry and would not schedule me when that customer is coming in. I am giving the salon 5 stars because I received great service and am happy with how my nails turned out. I look forward to my next visit, when I can enjoy a relaxing spa experience that does not involve sitting next to this pile of garbage disguised as a human.

    Great experience at Marina nails. Prices were very fair, team was accommodating to designs, and the atmosphere was pleasant. I asked for tips + gel design and it cost me $65 before tip. Great price for great service. I also had to charge my iPad and laptop during my visit, the team was kind to make room for my charging equipment and accommodate that as my service was being done. Also offered me water and reminded me to grab my dry cleaning on the way out. Thank you!

    Perfect manicure! Simple, clean, and elegant

    As always, a perfect and elegant mani from Marina nails for a perfect day. Can't beat them when it comes to quality and efficiency.

    Gel mani to pair with my pretzel Zoom shirt!

    COVID mani/pedi review! Book this place! I was thrilled to see that nail salons opened after a LONG six months. Health concerns are still real but I feel as if Marina Nails has opened in a thoughtful and careful way. I called them around 9am and they picked up right away and booked me for a lunchtime appointment. Nail appointments are real now, not like pre COVID! They took my number and asked to call if I couldn't make it - it's a new era. When I arrived they took my temp, gave me hand sanitizer and seated me in a (very clean) seat with a large body shield in front of it. The pedicure was perfect and the gel manicure was flawless and quick. Everyone working there seemed happy and welcoming. I will definitely be back and encourage all other folks in the 94123 to book an appointment- we deserve it!

    They don't actually make your appointments. They lie on the phone and then make you wait.

    I wish I didn't have to post this review after coming to this nail salon a few times already, but…read morethis was by far the worst pedicure I have EVER gotten. When I sat down in the chair, I specifically told the person doing my nails that I had not gotten a pedicure in awhile (6 months actually) since the last time I got one, they cut the sides of my toenails and I got such bad ingrowns and my nails literally split from how bad they were. I had to grow them out for that long and had not touched them so my right toenail was a little uneven from the split. She said Ok and said she would be careful. She asked if she could cut just the top of the nail to make it even and square. I said yes, and then repeated that I did NOT want anything on the sides of my toes touched. Despite MULTIPLE times telling her that, she took it upon herself to "clean up" the sides of my big toenails by cutting them at a 45° angle.... the EXACT thing that the previous salon did that absolutely destroyed my nails. When I realized, I asked her, and she tried to defend herself while lying multiple times. She had the audacity to say 1. My nails were already like that, then changed her story to 2. That she was "cutting away" the excess nail polish she had put on away". And then again changed her story to 3. That she actually didn't cut them at all and didn't know what I was talking about. I then said, no you absolutely cut them, why would you cut the inside of the nail when I SPECIFICALLY said at least 2-3 times not to? She replied with, well they're already cut, I can't do anything now. AND THEN TRIED TO CUT THE SIDES AGAIN MORE SAYING SHE WAS TRYING TO FIX IT. I literally had to push her hand away and say "absolutely not, please stop touching my nail." When I walked in, I asked for 2 coats funny bunny, 1 coat bubble bath. Well, 7 coats later and her saying bubble bath wouldn't look very good. I had to accept that my nails were just not going to look acceptable at al. You can actually still see the brush strokes of the polish... AFTER 7 COATS!! It was absolutely absurd how they could not achieve a simple combination that is by far the most popular nail polish combo right now. After she said she was done, I paid, and I couldn't get out of there fast enough. I was on the bridge of tears knowing how long it had taken me to recover from my previous nail fiasco and how long it was going to take to recover from this. I am getting married in August and honestly so sad that my nails might still be affected by this. When I got home, I burst into tears and couldn't believe the state of my nails. After more inspection, I realized she DIDN'T EVEN PAINT MY RIGHT PINKY TOE!!!! I am going to a wedding abroad on Wednesday, so as you can imagine, I was pissed. I had to file down some of my other nails because they were shaped so badly. My big toes don't even look the same shape. I walked back into the store before a dinner reservation and asked for a refund. She asked me to take off my shoes so she could inspect my toes. I told her what had happened and that my pinky toe wasn't even painted. She said she couldn't offer me a refund, just a gift certificate since the service was completed. I responded with... well not really cause my toe was not painted and she specifically did something I asked her not to do. I didn't even mention how bad the nail polish application was since I thought it was pretty fricken apparent and had an uber waiting. I ended up taking the gift certificate since I was in a hurry, and they said I could come back to get them redone and there would be a different person there to do them. I don't know why they would think I would EVER go back there again, but I will be filing a dispute with my CC company. So sad since I had been here multiple times before and live down the street. Would NOT recommend.

    I have to say, I was a little skeptical because it's in a prime Union Street location and I thought…read moreit would be bougie and over priced. I got there Saturday afternoon about 4pm. I was just in for an over due pedicure. There was a mix of men and women in chairs getting their nails done. There's a really good selection of colors to choose from. I went with a soft pink for my toes. They have nice massage chairs and while you're soaking your feet, they bring you a heated shoulder pad the drape on. I almost left with it still on because I forgot it was there! They did a super job. I wish they cut my nails shorter because my pinkie toes still had sharp edges. Yikes. When I asked, someone filed them and they were just right.
