Wanted to get my toes done as they were in NEED of a pedicure. This was my second time going to this salon. The location is right off of Burlingame ave, there is street, metered parking all around unless you park on a Sunday, then parking is free! The ambiance is nice, their pedicure chairs have to be my favorite. I've never been in a more comfortable chair that feels and looks luxurious. For a regular gel pedicure, they charge $55 which included a hot stone massage. The lady who did my toes, confirmed if the shape looked good and was patient when I was a little indecisive with which color to go with, which I appreciated. My toes came out great, so much better than what I walked in with! Definitely worth it, if you're looking for a nail salon that offers a relaxing pedicure experience in Burlingame. read more

MonZoe Nail Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Burlingame, California

I came in as a walk-in for a gel manicure because this salon looked promising. What I experienced instead was painful and honestly upsetting. I was initially seated with one nail tech, I believe his name was Leo, who randomly decided someone else would take over. He didn't go help another client--he just stopped working on me and passed me off, which already felt unprofessional since he sat down few seats down from us just chatting. The second nail tech, Tina, was extremely rough from the start. I had to pull my hand back and say "ow" multiple times. She filed aggressively without checking length or shape and repeatedly filed my actual skin. Halfway through, my fingers were burning. She wasn't wearing gloves so as she was cleaning the polish up, she was using her nails that didn't look clean to dig up my skin and polish. 2nd, The color wasn't what I asked for, but I agreed to it anyway because she kept showing me options that weren't even close to what I requested. I was trying to be respectful and not cause a problem and just settled for this color. Furthermore, the polish application was a mess. She constantly repainted and removed polish on every nail using a buffer, nail file, and even a paper towel. I've never seen nail polish removed that way.. weird. The final result was bumpy, uneven, and sloppy, with polish all over my skin. By the end, both of my thumbs were swollen and slightly bleeding. Instead of stopping, she kept filing my skin and drilling around the sides, making the pain worse. I stayed patient thinking that she'll clean it up properly, but I realized this was truly her final work. At this point, I let her finish and asked for her manager. When I asked to speak to the manager, the nail tech became defensive and started yelling in her own language. I didn't cause a scene and I wasn't rude, but the change in tone was obvious and made me so uncomfortable that I started crying. The manager offered and gave store credit, but that doesn't change the fact that my skin flesh has been filed down multiple times and I left in pain. I walked out with injured fingers and nails that looked extremely sloppy. Please listen to the bad reviews. I'm not sure how this place has a 4-star rating. A nail appointment should never end in pain, and tears. I will never return and wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

I am so disappointed. I came here because the yelp reviews looked good. I came in for a gel X fill with French. The lady doing my nails was very sweet, but unfortunately, she was super aggressive and very messy with her work. I do my own nails at home sometimes so I'm very aware of mistakes that are made. She starts painting the polish on my nails while there is still dust flying everywhere, on her hands, and on my hands so when the polish wasn't going on smoothly, she was obviously struggling to fix it. There were multiple times that I had to point out her mistakes for her to fix, like even the shape of my nails was completely slanted on the ends of the nails and she didn't even catch that until I said something about it . She put two layers of topcoat on my nails, which made them a lot thicker and bulkier. There are multiple chips on the side of my nails as well as the topcoat on some nails not even being smooth and shiny. I go to pay and did not tip for good reason, then went to the bathroom and realized the lady at the counter asked my boyfriend for a tip. This is extremely rude and assuming because nobody owes you a tip, especially if you did not do a good job. I was unaware that my boyfriend paid a $20 tip through Venmo without consulting with me first , as he didn't realize why I didn't tip. I showed her why I didn't tip and she tried to fix it. Of course she could not because my nails needed to be drilled and repainted. I called back later and asked for $20 off of my service, not realizing that that would just be my tip back. I wanted $20 off the service price as well as the tip back, so I called back again to get that and they refused to give any money back... why would I pay full price for a half ass job? Update: The owner just responded and said that I am picky. I'm sorry I want my nails done correctly without a bunch of chips, thickness, excess residue on my fingers. Two of my fingers arent even smooth cuz she buffed them after the top coat If you cannot give a clean set, why would I pay 80? This is worth 60. They refunded the tip that my boyfriend gave but refused to give me any percent off the full price. I should not have to come back to get it fixed nor do I want to because they honestly don't know what they are doing and have terrible customer service. Thanks! read more

Interesting experience here. I'd scheduled a pedicure appointment at another nearby nail salon, and after waiting a half hour, decided to leave. I immediately came across this salon and was able to do a walk-in service. It looks like they do a good business here, with many return customers. It's not my type of place due to: - no toxic free regular nail polish options - no obvious tool sanitation - the salon looks very dated and run down - no indication of the products used for the pedicure The pedicure chair I was sat at was dirty (there was some type of liquid in the cup holder indentation, the little side trays needed a good wipe down, etc.). My nail tech was sweet and did a good job. I won't come back here. read more

Stumbled upon this gem while visiting for work. I was in so much pain from a gel pedicure, I came in and this angel on earth helped me and made my toes look beautiful! On top of that, I got a much needed back rub and I loved it. The place is well decorated inside and they have a grand variety of colors. read more

went to MonZoe Nail Spa for a simple acrylic removal, and it was one of the worst nail experiences I've ever had. They soaked my fingers in acetone, which is normal, but they didn't let the acrylic properly soften or come off on its own. Instead, the technician aggressively drilled my nails over and over, making them extremely fragile and paper thin. He was rough, rushed, and showed no care at all for the health of my nails. By the next morning, I woke up with severe nail sensitivity, and when I looked closely, I saw red spots on my nails from how much they drilled. This is absolutely unacceptable and clearly reflects unprofessional, careless work. I will not be returning, and I don't recommend this place to anyone. They do not care about the wellbeing of the nails or the clients, and no one should leave a salon in pain. read more

Wow! This place is great! Leo and Daisy gave me a beautiful gel mani-pedi with the "celestial theme" I requested. They were very friendly, professional, and put an incredible amount of detail in their work. I also had a great neck & shoulder massage from Jay that melted all of my stress away! I highly recommend this nail spa with a modern and relaxing vibe! read more

Actually horrified at how my nails look after? I had a 5:30 appointment. I arrived on time and the employees looked confused, they explained they didn't see my online scheduled appointment and it would be about 30 minutes. Okay, I left to walk around and came back on time and was seated about 5 minutes later. After soaking my gel x fingers for well over 30 minutes she began working on my nails. I explained I was late at this point and sadly would prefer to just get a simple manicure without polish or gel x. What the heeeeeeeck is this?? This looks terrible and she didn't do anything to them after I explained I wouldn't be needing polish. Mind you this is all over an hour from my scheduled appointment. :/ she didn't do any lotion, nail care, anything. My hands feel extremely dry and cracked now. read more

MonZoe is my go to nail salon in Burlingame! I always gel manicure, and sometimes a regular pedicure. They are always really consistent and do a great job my nails last I really long time and I have to go in maybe once a month to three weeks. They have a huge selection of colors and are really good at designs if that's your thing. Very clean, all white design and offer complementary snacks/candy/water. Very well lit and definitely feel very pampered! read more

Received a pedicure recently. By current standards, this is a pretty good salon. Located just off "the Ave", it's clean, pretty massage chairs, and at 3pm on a weekday, they could take me within 20 mins. Things I liked: staff is very professional. There isn't a lot of banter so you actually do get to relax (you also won't have to wonder if they're gossiping about the state of your neglected feet). And the massage was actually pretty good! Things I didn't like: I didn't do any color so I would have appreciated if they focused more on scrubbing. That was bypassed very quickly when that's what my feet really needed. I'll definitely be back and will just try asking for that next time. read more

Woof! Went in for a simple manicure first application person using tacky clear coat. Cut to them never drying and all the nails rippling from polish never properly drying. Went back the second day, wait 15 mins, next nail tech doing the same thing. Painting fibers into nails and same clumpy application. Also using her fungus finger nail to remove excess polish and no gloves ! Ended up having them remove and left without any polish. Won't be back! read more

Ok, so I called and requested a refund because my nail broke! They notified me that they can't give me a full refund but offered me an opportunity to come back. I didn't want to go back but figured that if I can't get all of my money back, I might as well get my money's worth. This time around Daisy did my nails, and she changed my frown upside down. I've never had a prettier set before. She did acrylic and explained how building gel and GelX works. Her attention to detail, kindness, patience and professionalism changed my perspective on the entire salon. She will be my new go to and I will be returning! read more

My daughter and I visited MonZoe for the Monzie Pedicure and a gel manicure. We'd asked for the Louboutin's color palette since we're both opted for their signature Monzie's pedicure. The lady that runs the place, told us she will get it for us, but never did. I asked my technician for it and thought the book she gave us was it. So we picked colors from it and when it was time to paint our toes, it a totally something else. It's only been one day and my nails are chipped, and I looked closely, and noticed the tip of my toes were not finished off. -1 star for the lady not giving us the color palette we asked for -1 star for chipped nail polish -1 star for unpainted tips read more

Absolutely one of the best nail shops I have ever been too. This review has been long overdue and after having a couple of horrible experiences at other salons, it makes me appreciate this place even more. I actually haven't been here in over a year. Some friends recommended I get my nails done here before my wedding. I was a COVID bride working front line with patients 2 days up until my wedding. It was too short staffed for me to take too many days off. So I was definitely a hot emotional mess of a bridezilla. It's the day before my wedding, I can't relax at all. I can't even choose the color for my nails or hold still. The young man who did my pedicure was an absolute gem. He could sense all my stress and anxiety. He tested multiple colors on me, scrubbed all my calluses away, and even pulled out some stray hairs on the toes. I did have a mini breakdown because I thought I asked for a full set of gel over tips, but another tech was just adding acrylic over my natural nail. Luckily the man doing my pedicure explained it to her and she redid her work. The nails came out perfect for my wedding and I received so many compliments on them. read more

My favorite nail salon in downtown Burlingame. A beautiful salon, very clean, the Estheticians are so nice and talented.

What a wonderful experience! I was looking for nail salons in Burlingame and this place came up first. After reading the great reviews, I was sold that you can easily make an appointment on Booksy. I was able to make two appointments for the next day. I was having trouble finding parking on the day of. It's just street parking and Burlingame can get busy, especially on the weekends. The salon nicely called to check in if I was coming. I was able to finally get in 15 min late and they got to me right away. I was originally planning on getting acrylics but they told me that my nails were actually in really great shape and I could just get gel. They didn't try to sell me more, which was amazing! They were also able to fix one of my nails that was cracked. I told them I wanted French tips but with green instead of white tips. They chose an amazing green color and executed so well! The manicure was $50 (extra $5 for the French tips). I had such a great experience! I'm definitely adding this place to my rotation of go-to spots! read more

MonZoe Nail Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Burlingame, California

Decided to come here on a whim while my husband and I were walking around downtown Burlingame. There were a handful of people getting their nails done when we were there but they were still able to fit us in right away. I got a basic gel manicure. One color, nothing fancy. The gel polish started lifting and chipping within 6 days, which is uncommon. There was nothing about the service that stood out. The whole experience was mediocre. I don't see myself coming back since the gel manicure didn't last long. read more

Only come here if you're extremely desperate for a mani/pedi. Even then, you'll probably do a better job yourself at home. Writing this review after my second experience here: I asked for a gel mani, regular pedi. I brought my own regular nail polish this day. I had 2 ladies working on me at the same time, as nail salons frequently do. While the lady working on my toes was having me put my feet in & out of the water, the entire gel light fell onto my shins as it had been balancing on my lap while the other lady was working on my hands. Both ladies were shook by the how hard it fell onto my legs, but no apologies and moved on. The gel polish I chose from them apparently wasn't curing/drying properly so we had to redo the entire thing. Since i brought my own polish, I asked her to just use mine instead of doing gel. After the lady doing my manicure finished putting on my base coat, the woman from the front desk took over finishing up my color. She also put on my shoes right away which was odd because they were only drying for 10 min, and then once she was done she had me move to another seat by the door to finish drying. Mind you, there was no one waiting at the door at the time, so I was upset that they rushed me when I found that my toes and a few of my fingers were messed up. I asked her to fix them which she seemed annoyed that she had to do. She also dug into my purse to grab the nail polish I had brought without asking my permission first. Like yeah, I understand you need the polish to finish up, but isn't it courtesy to ask for permission before digging your hands into someone else's bag? While fixing my nails she had the nerve to ask how I was paying for the service today. Horrible. read more

MonZoe Nail Spa - Uneven polish coverage, bloody cuticle, nicked polish from being moved to different chair. No cuticle oil or lotion. - Nail Salons Near Me - Burlingame, California

My true rating is about. 4.5 so I'm rounding up. This salon is right if Burlingame Ave so there's plenty of metered parking. There's actually one of the bigger parking lots right across from the salon. I made a same day appointment and it was really easy! Walking in, you a see a cute and clean salon. They have large windows so it's fun to people watch. I paid$65 for a basic pedi and an extra 20 min massage. I think the pedi cost $30. The main reason I rated i a 4.5 instead of a 5 is because I don't think the massage was worth it, but maybe that's my bad for not going to an actual masseuse or reflexology place. The employees are friendly enough and the woman who worked on my toes really took her time which I like. The massage chairs are too notch and I'm a sucker for a good massage chair. Would come again! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Extremely unprofessional unhygienic and chaotic. I made an appointment at 9:30 with Tina and wasn't seen until 10:10 by another lady who didn't even know how to do gel acrylic. The place is dirty and dusty with 0 respect for their customers. Extremely disorganized and just overall terrible. I would highly discourage you from coming to this place. They always leave water under my nails. read more

I always call to make an appointment before arriving and I come with a design idea in mind. I've been serviced by a diff nail technician every time so I would say the quality is all about the same. My go to is an acrylic full set + gel + design! Pedicures are also great here. Price point is pretty good especially for what I ask for. I'd recommend tipping in cash! read more

I've been coming to Mon Zoe for a few years now and my past few visits have been pretty disappointing. Today was hands down the worst experience I've ever had here. I got a gel pedicure and gel x nails. I asked for my toe nails to just be filed down, every single one was crooked and slanted. When I asked for it to be fixed the response was "your toes are crooked". First of all that's incredibly rude and even if that's the case no one should be walking around with slanted nails. In addition to that half my nail wasn't painted on almost every toe nail. That's one of my biggest pet peeves when getting a pedicure. Next the gel x. When removing my current gel I asked that the nail tech not rip it off with the cuticle cutter and to file it down instead. She scoffed and yanked my hand towards her. Then when it came to putting the gel x nails on a few of them were off center and not covering the nail. Which I asked to be corrected and I got the same irritated response. Now that I've left, 2 of the nails are completely crooked and side ways. I think gel x is new here which might be why I had such a poor experience. I've been getting gel x for over a year now and have been to a few different spots and this wasn't done the way I'm used to. Spent $125 to leave frustrated and with crooked nails. Overall I'm just really disappointed because this used to be my favorite nail salon. read more

Great first time here. I'm a stickler for cleanliness. There isn't the smell of chemicals ( I was in early), messy supplies, sticky bottles, etc. I especially liked that Leo took the time to wipe the neck of the polish bottle so that the next person didn't have to struggle to open it. First time seeing this ever! Nice! I was able to book online with no issues. Offered a beverage while drying. Would definitely come back for more treatments just pinched for time today. read more

MonZoe Nail Spa - Simple mani. - Nail Salons Near Me - Burlingame, California

Hurts my heart to write this bad review because I used to be a loyal customer for years, until this one unforgivable incident happened. Last year in January 2023 my friend bought a gift certificate for me for my birthday. She bought it online, called the business and they told her she can either pick up the gift certificate (to gift to me) or have them keep it at the salon for me to use whenever the next time I get my nails done. She decided to have them keep it, she also forwarded me (via email) the receipt of purchase for the gift card and told me to show them (proof of purchase) when I ask for the gift certificate. In May, I finally schedule an appointment and get my nails done. I did some cute design this time and I usually have Jennifer (I believe that's her name) do my gel manicure because I know she's diligent with designs. I check out and mention that my friend (back in January) purchased a gift certificate (gave them the reason why she had them keep it and also showed proof of purchase email). Jennifer starts digging around the desk and cannot seem to find the gift certificate. She asked if I used it between January and now, I told her no and showed her my calendar events where I have nail appointments scheduled. The last time I was at the salon was August 2022. She tried looking again and accused me of using the gift certificate between January and May and/or my friend using it or taking it and not giving it to me, because since I don't have the physical gift certificate and they don't have it they CANNOT HONOR the gift certificate (even with proof of purchase). I texted my friend as Jennifer kept looking and she told me she doesn't have it and was just as disappointed that they lost it and didn't want to honor it. Jennifer tells me to pay for it in full without honoring the gift certificate and I politely do but I was very disappointed in how they couldn't honor a gift certificate that my friend paid for. Jennifer also didn't apologize for the missing gift certificate, maybe cause she didn't think they'd be in the wrong for not having it. My friend was just as pissed because she basically paid for nothing and now we both learned that this business doesn't have integrity when it comes to their gift certificates. I get the whole trusting the person buying the gift certificate but if the business said they can keep it til the recipient can use it then why all of a sudden is it missing?? Tbh I think either one of the staff gave it to another person named after me, lost/discarded it, or one of the staff took it. After that incident, I never came back and fortunately found a closer salon by where I live. Such a shame. I should've asked prior to getting my nails done if they had my gift certificate but I didn't feel the need to. read more

I have a normal salon I go to but I decided to try this salon and I'm glad I did! Walking in, it's a nice airy and bright! The workers were super kind. Even though it was my first time there I could tell even on a Monday morning it was filled with regular clientele which is great. I loved how efficient the process was. I was able to book online and I had a gel manicure and classic pedicure. They were able to have two people help (one for each service ) so it helped get me in and out of the chair. The finished work looked amazing! I was really happy with the result and the price was pretty standard. I would definitely come here again! Super convenient location in downtown Burlingame. read more

DONT GET WAXED HERE and Choose who you book your service with! Just had my acrylic manicure, gel pedicure and underarm done here. Leo (did my manicure polish) and the woman who did my feet were pleasant and did a good job. For the woman who did my acrylics, i told her I wanted more length than my natural nails but she kept insisting an overlay. Even though kept telling her I want more length, when she finally accepted she had to add tips she became rough with her work. She even cut my finger with the electric buffer and had the audacity to tell me I kept on moving. I moved but she cut me. For the "esthetician" who waxed me, she double dipped the popsicle stick she used on me. Im a licensed esthetician, and it's basic knowledge that you SHOULD NEVER DOUBLE DIP. This is how people get skin diseases. Her station is also VERY UNSANITARY. Tweezers or any tools that touch the skin should be disinfected or discarded. There were opened drinks and boxes in the room. Disgusting On top of that she laughed when I showed her my thick underarm hair growth, how about some manners? read more

I have been to MonZoe a few times now and highly recommend it. Since covid and having a baby i do not get a mani/pedi as often as i used to, so whenever i do find the time for it I want to make sure I get reliable good service and experience and MonZoe hits the spot. I love the fact that you can make reservations online and they always have a seat waiting for you when you arrive. Lots of color options, very very clean and aesthetically pleasing salon. Massage chairs are awesome. I love getting the deluxe pedicure. The scrub and hot stone is 5 stars read more

Quite happy with my mani pedi from MonZoe! I'm pretty picky when it comes to getting my nails done since I usually do them myself. Made an appointment at MonZoe online before I headed off to my trip. Staff are friendly and the shop is pretty clean. I did see a few flies flying around but it's possible that the door was just open. One thing to mention is that when I arrived for my 3pm appt, I wasn't seated until 3:20 and then the services started around 3:40. So they run pretty late. A few others came after me, all with appointments and all had to wait too. If you plan to come here, just don't be in a rush! Vegan gel mani plus design on two fingers- $45 Pedicure- $30 Overall, would come back again. Very happy with my marble design :) read more
