So, I started doing my nails again. So went to a location that just made the whole experience feel...GROSS. Then I remembered I used to get the best service at Orchid Nails. So, I randomly drove out of my way to catch any available tech. CiCi was called over to help me. And the whole experience, from beginning to end was just so catered to me. Light touches, consideration of my phone use, providing me with easy options, and I left with a very stylized French manicure perfect for spring. Dry gel manicure cost $60, but I was done in about 35 minutes even with a previous gel soak off. This is the type of service I'm happy to spend money on. I left feeling relaxed, relieved, and pampered. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Thank you CiCi. And thank you to all the great techs working at Orchid Nails. You all do lovely work without much thought. Very refreshing experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Orchid Nails - Super good nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Altos, California

[[HIGHLIGHT]]We had a horrible experience with the manicure here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My daughter brought an inspo online and asked if they could do it. The lady said she could get it close. The picture of the end result speaks for itself. It was NOT close. The lines are not even smooth - they don't look like from a professional salon, not to mention they charged my daughter $125 for the set. All in all, they took advantage of the situation and this is not what an honest business does. read more

I had a wedding to attend, and with dozens of nail salons around, I gave my partner several options without even reading reviews. She liked the name Orchard Nail, and we knew there was so much choice that if this spot didn't work out for our walk-in request, we'd just move on to the next. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quynh was very prompt in greeting me, and luckily, they had an opening.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The first thing you do is pick your nail color! I wasn't sure what would complement my gray dress, but I was considering either a soft white or pink. It's been a while since Ive gotten a manicure, and even longer since I had a pedicure (I usually do my own!), but since it was a special occasion, I decided to treat myself. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quynh was incredibly friendly, understanding, and fun![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I even complimented her nail color, and I ended up choosing the same shade, LOL!! My nails were a bit uneven, some long, some short but I requested a classic French tip. She wasn't initially sure if she could do it, but she pulled it off beautifully! The area itself was nice there was a gentle breeze, and plenty of parking, which was a plus. Overall, I would recommend Orchard Nail without hesitation. Great experience and friendly service! read more

Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality nails and great service! read more

This place was recommended by a client of mine. I am across the street and operate my own beauty business (Glow Up Factory) so when coming to get beauty services, I tend to look at everything. Cici was AMAZING. She did my manicure so detail and clean but she impressed me when she designed my nails. I never get design but she said "trust me" and I am glad I did. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She is creative and has an amazing sense of humor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My pedi was great too. Their pedicures even include hot stones . My nails lasted 3 weeks and still looked good. I tend to wash my hands a lot, I even did some cooking and mechanic work and they held up really good. This never happens at other places. I don't know if it's the material or technique. I highly recommend this place. read more

Quynh did a gel manicure for 50$. I showed a few inspiration pics and she saw my vision. I'm loving my fun summer nails! I will definitely be coming back. read more

The service was fine, really friendly staff and accommodating but pricing is a bit up there now. I just paid 75 for some plain white toe nails (no gel and no powder) & for a basic French tip manicure on my natural nails once again a basic pale pink with a small white French tip with no acrylic, gel, or powder!!! Just basic nail polish on both natural nails for $75 and that's without tip I would've paid around 80-85 for some regular nail polish so absurd!!!! read more

I have been coming to Orchid nails since 2020. I have never been let down by ANY one at this salon. They always and I mean ALWAYS make time for me! They are all amazing. Heidi did this manicure for me, and she is the sweetest soul. I typically go to Heidi or Quinn. Both are so good. Don't pass on a salon full of customer service, amazing outcomes, and great vibes! If I could give them 100 stars, I would! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Orchid Nails continues to be my favorite place for a mani-pedi, even though there are many salons closer to my home.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It is a calming, welcoming place where all of the staff are well trained. The owner, Quyenh or Quinn is a delightful person who moves quickly and manages the flow of customers so that no one has to wait long. My mani-pedi comes with a message of my legs and arms, so I leave feeling and looking better and relaxed. Gpoing to Orchid Nails is a treat I give myself. read more

Love this small nail spa. They are quick and efficient but not in a rushing way. Calm music playing in the background. Comfortable chairs that are not broken with functional massaging. Decent pricing for Los Altos tbh. Came here at 4PM and was done by 4:30. Bam! Looking good y'all! read more

First time coming here, I was in a rush and needed a manicure ASAP. Waited for about 10-15 minutes but that's typical at most places when you have no appointment. I had Heidi as my nail tech. She was very nice and welcoming. Asked me if I had a shape in mind or a photo reference. I understand that sometimes recreating the exact photo can be tricky. But I think she did a great job. Very careful while working. I love having long nails but I have been liking a short length for sometime. The picture with the white almond shape was my first time coming in. The square French tip with design was my second time there. Definitely will be a regular here and will be asking for my new favorite nail tech Heidi. read more

Not the best, but not the worst. Filing was not consistent in evenness. She also cut into the end of my middle finger with the emory board. Was in and out in 30 minutes for a gel polish change. Nail techs are not friendly and seemed unappreciative of my business. I probably won't go back. read more

This used to be my favorite spot for mani/pedis, but it's been a year since I've been here and their quality has dropped tremendously. Let's start off with the horrible customer service I received from my nail tech. She was unfriendly and barely spoke two words to me. She filed my nails unevenly and I had to point it out to her which I could tell caused her to be annoyed. She tried to fixed it, but my nails ended up a lot shorter than I'd like...and still uneven. I didn't want to say anything else as it was already too short. The paint job was the worse. On one hand, she painted it close to the edge, which was great, except it was uneven. The other hand, she painted far away from the cuticles, which made it look like it had a week or two of growth. One of the nails she painted was lumpy, so I pointed it out to her. She didn't look happy I pointed it out and painted on another layer. There were 6 layers on that finger already! But it didn't fix the problem so she had to re-do it and was clearly frustrated at that time. Hey...if she did it correctly the first time, we wouldn't have this problem! I was charged $18 and added tip to it as well...even though I really wanted to not tip at all. $18 for a regular mani seems a bit much. The nearby nail salons charge $12-15. One day later, the nail polish started to crack. It's a sign that the nail polish that they use is old. I'm very unhappy about the overall experience and quality of work and don't plan to return again. read more
