So kind, best service, clean shop, expert skill, thank you so much see you again ! I like here !

Honestly. Mediocre and average service at best. No attention to detail in pedicure maybe jt was just the staff person. Best to avoid Maral for a pedicure. So many other great options down Belmont. I won't be coming back read more

You can't go wrong at this salon. They do a great job every time. The salon is clean and so cute inside. I have been going here for at least 7 years and I recommend it to everyone I know. read more

Top quality manicures!! Great service and friendly people. I would recommend for sure

Impeccable service! I had a group and called the day before to make an appointment. The mani pedi experience was standard. Same as most nicer nail salons. It's clean, they have a good selection of colors and their massage chairs are so nice. They give great massages as well. Of course you get a foot massage with your pedi and a hand massage with your mani. But you also get a neck and shoulder massage during tie mani and while your nails are drying. Love that! read more

Polish Nail Bar - Color selection! - Nail Salons Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This has been my go to nail place for the last two years and I get my nails done every two weeks. They do an amazing job at my nails and I have had a couple Poor experiences but I am now going on the third strike of poor business. During the holidays I purchased a 3 pack of spa pedicure during the last spa pedicure they removed services stating it wasn't included anymore and it was an extra During their reopening increased all pricing and did not advise clients. No where in the establishment represents any pricing. The last straw was I took my mom to get her nails done and wanted her to get the spa pedicure as I was getting a no chip manicure in lieu of a basic pedi. I closed my eyes for a minute and her pedicure was done 15 minutes prior to my basic pedicure. She then advised me that she goes fast and needed to pick up her daughter and then charged my mom $55 for the pedicure. The whole purpose of a spa pedicure is for more time on the feet and they completely took advantage of my mom. read more

Came here for my very first mani-pedi and despite being extremely apprehensive my friend convinced me to go with them. I had been an avid nail biter the majority of my life and because of that always felt ashamed of how my fingers/nails looked thus never felt comfortable enough to get a mani-pedi. Luckily I got a handle on my bad nail biting habit and finally felt ready for a 'treat yo-self' afternoon! My friend and I bought a $25 groupon for this place after doing some research and booked an appointment for the same day; I plan on coming back and paying whatever their regular rate is because of how great my experience was here. We arrived and I was so impressed with how beautiful the inside of this place was, as soon as you walk in look up and acknowledge the beautiful light fixture! Very clean; manicure stations to your left, 5-6 epic massage chairs where you can control the settings(huge bonus for me) and 2 big flat screen tv's. Did I mention the employee's are huge SWEETHEARTS!?! I had such a fun conversation with one of the employee's about her husband's tattoo he wants to get fixed of a dragon that has a huge head and a little body. Everyone here made me feel very comfortable seeing as I was a newbie to this whole pampering yourself lifestyle that I missed the boat on by living in a cave. They have a pretty large selection of nail polish shades for you to choose from. I can not wait to come here again!! seriously, anyone reading this come here and I promise you will be happy as a clam with perfect nails! read more

Great service. Really clean out my nails. Nail tech made sure I was satisfied with my nails. And when I asked her to do another coat of no chip due to the light color, she did so without a problem. I would definitely come back. read more

I'm leaning more towards a 3.5 here, but I'm rounding up 1) because that's the rule in math and 2) the value is great. I've been here a couple times alone and once with a friend for pedicures, and I've had a good experience each time. The times that have been the best is when I go on a weeknight, and they don't have a lot of appointments. They spend a lot more time then on the massage and take their time. Even on the weekend, though, they are still thorough. My problem is that I usually book through Groupon's BeautyNow, where there is always a discount. But it seems to confuse the nail tech when I tell them about it. Overall, it's a solid pedicure and I love that they wrap your toes in plastic wrap after they are dry if you wear closed toed shoes- it really has saved my pedicure in the winter. It's also a cute shop. AND it's a good price, so I will keep going there. read more

I'm not a regular pedicure customer. In my entire life (and I'm a baby boomer), I've had maybe ten pedicures. This time, I chose to get a pedicure because I was going to Florida for a few days, and I figured, why not present well to a whole bunch of strangers I'll never see again in my life? Since I don't have a regular salon I visit, I looked to see if Groupon had any deals going, and I found one for Polish Nail Bar. I'm glad I did, because my feet look and feel great, even two weeks later. And, by the way, nobody in St. Pete Beach ever looked at my feet, but if they did, they would've been impressed. My first impression was, boy is this place clean and bright. It did feel like a bit of an oasis on a cold winter day. I was greeted by Gina, who did my pedicure. She directed me to choose a color, and I went with a bright pink. I sat in a chair opposite a TV screen. Normally, having a TV on drives me nuts. I don't like the noise, I don't like the distraction, and I don't like constantly being bombarded with sound I didn't choose. However, the sound was turned off. They were running an episode of "Grace and Frankie," a show I don't watch, and it was subtitled. You know what? I enjoyed glancing at it! I said to Gina, I didn't expect this kind of program to be running, and she said, a lot of their customers seem to enjoy it. I enjoyed it. Gina was professional and efficient. I'm happy with my pink toenails. I'm happy that she gently but thoroughly worked on my not-so-bad calluses. I liked sitting at the air dryer afterwards, where she massaged my shoulders for a minute or two. I didn't mind that she wrapped my feet in plastic to protect her work. This was a very enjoyable session. Two weeks later, my feet still look nice. It's too bad nobody sees them in this bleak midwinter, but hey. That's the way it rolls in the Midwest. When I'm ready for another pedicure, I will revisit Polish Nail Spa. Even without a Groupon. read more

Polish Nail Bar is your typical salon. Few reasons for only giving three-stars: 1. Prices are higher than most other salons in the area and the quality isn't worth the cost 2. The color selection could be better read more

I've been coming here for the last year and it's always a great experience. The technicians are careful and gentle, and it never hurts. Regular, Dazzle Dry and No-chips all last well. read more

I had two really great experiences here. I bought a Groupon for a no-chip manicure and regular pedicure. On my first time, I was the first customer in on a Tuesday morning, and I was helped right away. I chose my color and was ushered to the pedicure bowl. My pedicure was fine, but my manicure was amazing! Elly did my no-chip, and she was so meticulous and did my nails exactly how I wanted them. I went back a second time, and Elly did my nails again. They're gorgeous. I'm very happy. read more

First of all I just want to say.."Yassssssssss Queen" I can be a bit picky when it comes to nails and this time around I took my daughter with me. They were very accommodating to us both, they were very friendly and conversed with my daughter. Her manicure was meticulous and only 5 dollars. My nail tech was very attentive, her foot message was amazing. My pedicure is perfection! The atmosphere was much appreciated. The owner was very sweet and made sure I was happy with the polish I had chosen to make sure the glitter was something I was comfortable with and I was! I will definitely be returning, officially my nail go to. read more

Stopped by while I was in town for a mani and pedi. They had a groupon so it was $35 for a regular mani and pedi which was amazing! Most of the staff was very nice and polite. I had a young man do my pedicure and I will say it was the best pedicure I've ever had! He was so detailed in everything! While he was doing my pedicure, another nail technician was doing my manicure, I think she was in a rush to leave because she was doing it so fast and rough. The manicure chipped in 1 day. So overall this place is great. Clean and most of the staff is nice. I wish I would of asked for the young mans name to post. However, I can't give it 5 stars because a manicure that chips in 1 days is clearly not a good manicure. read more

Found Polish through Groupon because hey had the amazing deal of $44 for a no-chip+pedi and the service was amazing! You never know what to expect with a good Groupon deal but being that they had good reviews, I gave it a try. Got the Groupon the same day as I booked with them and they were able to get me in. It's a quiet place with minimally cute decor so if you're looking for somewhere to get away and just zone out while receiving nail services, I'd highly recommend it. They currently also have fall specials that are pretty damn good too. Quality no-chips for $30 Monday-Wednesday. Can't beat it. read more

It was really disappointing when I got my mani on Thursday afternoon and most of my nails were noticeably chipped by Sunday morning without any real wear and tear on my hands. I understand it's not a no chip but I've gotten regular manis done at many places over the years and have never experienced this. If you're looking for atmosphere, then it's a good place but would recommend trying somewhere else (there's plenty of places nearby on Belmont) for quality. read more

Clean and cute salon.... That being said, worst pedicure I've ever received. I love getting manicures and usually feel great after one. Had an appt. waited still for 20 minutes. Wasn't greeted when I walked in or in the chair. They barely scrubbed my feet. Used the pumice bar for a few seconds that's it. Didn't do anything with dead skin or tools. Over in ten minutes. I had a Groupon, so happy I didn't pay full price. Will not be back. read more

I previously wrote a review and deleted it because the issue I had at my first appointment was resolved, and I wanted to give the place a second chance since they agreed to redo my nails. Since going to this nail salon, which was a week ago, my no-chip manicure has chipped AFTER having them redone :) I got a regular pedi and even that stayed longer than these nails. My initial appointment was a really odd, annoying experience as I made an appointment for a no-chip mani and regular pedi and the employees failed to inform me that the nail color I chose wasn't for a no-chip mani. I later find out after rescheduling for a new appointment to redo my nails as no-chip that the same nail color that wasn't for no-chip had a no-chip version! If that was the case, the issue could've been resolved at the first appointment if they simply told me that there was a no-chip version of the color. I just didn't understand why they didn't do that to begin with. To make matters worse, when I explained this situation in my first review the owner of the salon replied to me accusing me of not tipping the nail technician when I did even though the first paint job was crappy, and she argued that they told me three times that the color I chose wasn't for no-chip, when they didn't. I called in and I'm assuming the owner picked up the phone knowing exactly who I was because of her spat with me on here, and she laughed on the phone and agreed to redoing my nails. I went the next day and it was super awkward as we didn't talk to each other while she did my nails, (with the same color I got before but in the no-chip version) and I left without any words exchanged. It's been a week and my mani is chipping and peeling off. I definitely do not recommend this place. Let's hope the owner doesn't argue with me again over my review! read more

Polish Nail Bar - No chip mani a week after getting them done - Nail Salons Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

What a curious place. I'm really not sure what to make of my experience. I had been calling around to see if I could get a mani anywhere at 3 on a Sunday afternoon. The person who answered the phone said that they could do the mani. Great! When I arrived 10 mins before my appt time, the woman seemed kind of gruff. I picked a color and waited patiently. She did a dry manicure but there was no discussion about it. I have never encountered a dry manicure where the tech and I didn't discuss that's what I'm getting. She was done in about 15 minutes. And charged me $20. Now I actually like dry manicures- I like that the color doesn't shrink on the nails like it does when they soak your hands. They have a sign advertising dazzle dry (which I also like) for $25. Most places are tacking $10 on for dazzle dry, so does that mean that their manicures are really $15? In that case, why $20 for a dry manicure? It's probably not worth the brain damage to think further about the experience. I just checked out their website and see that they doesn't have any info about the details of the services or the prices, LOL! What a world! read more

This was my first (and only) visit to this salon. I had a 2:30 appointment booked for a manicure and pedicure and got there at 2:15. There were two employees in the salon and both were just starting a manicure/pedicure service on the ladies who came in before me. I was asked to pick a color and wait. I ended up being escorted to a pedicure chair a half hour past my appointment time. They did not acknowledge this. Just as my pedicure was starting at 3 PM, another woman came in saying she was there for her 3:15 appointment, and the woman assisting me told her she would be with her "in 5 minutes." She rushed me through my pedicure and I was in the seat for no more than 15-20 minutes. My manicure was also rushed and sloppy, to the point where she made my cuticles bleed and left fingerprints in my fingernail polish. She got up several times to answer the phone and book other appointments while I sat there waiting for her. I wasted my time and money to be rushed through both services. They need to adjust how they book appointments or get more staff in on weekdays, since I had a scheduled appointment time and was treated like an inconvenience. Very disappointing and not worth a second visit. read more

She cut me. It hurts a lot. After she cut it, she put a green liquid which I now know stops bleeding. It hurt, but I didn't know it was bleeding. SHE PUT MY FOOT BACK IN THE WATER. This will put me at extreme risk for infection and others. But again, I didn't know it was bleeding. She did not open new sealed supplies that I could see. No drinks, no hello. I tipped 7 dollars between two employees. Not much. But still. When I walked to the car, there was blood in my shoe and I finally investigated more closely. Dried blood and fresh blood. I went back in and asked for an incident report, nothing. I asked about the solution they we're putting on me. She put some more on, a cream, and 2 bandaids and apologized. The other woman who actually did the act, acted confused, but she knew; She was using the green solution which stops bleeding throughout the appointment. It appears clean, but I'm very concerned. I very purposely never go to the salon if I have even the tiniest open wound. This is not ok. read more

This is the dazzle manicure and it's all natural, created by doctors, and healthy for nails! No light is used, and it air dries in about 5 minutes! It also lasts 2-3 weeks without chipping, but of course your nails are going to grow! Totally worth the $25 and comes with a free shoulder massage. Love this place!! This is my second dazzle manicure from here! read more

Have been here numerous times. I love it! They always take their time and do a really nice job. Despite some of these reviews I've seen, the manager is very friendly and professional. My favorite part of this salon is that they offer Dazzle Dry nail polish which is a non-toxic, all natural polish that lasts much longer than regular nail polish. I just moved to the suburbs but will still return to this salon to get my nails done. That's how much I like it read more

Solid, solid, solid place!! My mom and friend were in need of a pedicure and I called in yesterday to book an appointment later yesterday. I was able to get them both in for a 7pm pedi! On the way there (I drove them/went with), we caught lots of traffic, so I called in to let them know I was running late and they were very accomodating! I reached at about 7:20 And they still gave my mom and my friend great pedicures! My mom wanted French tips for her toes and they still made time to give them to her! So here's how it went: We walked in to the salon and Lina greeted us. In the beginning, she seemed a little upset that we were late since they close at 8, but then she gave my mom the best pedicure ever! She seated her, helped her make sure the massage was still going, and made the perfect amount of conversation, all with a smile on her face! She even offered me a pedicure in case I wanted one too (even though it was so late) but I didn't need it so she sat me in a pedicure chair by my mom and made me comfortable and said I could just relax and use the massaging chair (super nice and lots of positive points there!). Her work was phenomenal and I plan on taking my mom back to Lina for all her future pedicures!! The lady that helped my friend's name is Stella. She was super sweet and a little quiet, which was not bad at all since my friend was super interested in the episode of Fuller House that was playing on their TV. Stella did a wonderful job as well and my friend had perfect feet afterwards, just like my mom but withouy the French tips! All in all, I recommend this place one hundred percent! Especially Lina and Stella (only because they're the only ones I know so far)! I can not wait to go back and get my own nails done there with Lina! On the way out, I asked for a service list and she even gave me, my mom, and friend 20% off cards for the next time since they're only 7 months new! I was thoroughly impressed by the staff, the cleanliness, the atmosphere, and most of all, the amazing attitude of the staff that assisted us and that waited the entire time for our pedicures to finish before leaving. No doubt a 5 out of 5 star salon! :) read more

Should you ever decide to go to this place, ASK FOR ANY OTHER TECHNICIAN BUT SARAH! I will start off by saying that the salon itself is well kept and clean but the service I received from SARAH was just plain disappointing. The minute SARAH started interacting with me, she had an attitude and was rude. Instead of talking to me like any polite human being would, she would tab on my leg or foot to let me know which side she was going to work on. She also kept talking to her other colleague in whatever her native language is - clearly talking negatively about me. SARAH then had a problem with me placing my sandals towards the back to my chair so they wouldn't get wet. She took it upon herself to grab them, drop them right next to the sink and ask why I would put them so far back. Excuse me?!?! And when I did not want to use the sandals I brought but the little flip-flops every nail place is offering you after a pedicure, she just sighed and murmured something in her native language again. SARAH finished the service in a rush. Other customers that started being serviced ahead of me, were done after me. She walked away and one of her colleagues actually was so kind to move SARAH's chair and table out of the way so I could leave my chair. She didn't invite me to sit down somewhere after the service and also didn't tell me where I could wait until my nail polishes had dried off. It's unfortunate, but SARAH made my experience a negative one when the other girls seemed friendly, even apologized for her! read more

Like many others, we had a Groupon for our services. I had a no chip manicure with a pedicure and my girlfriend received a regular manicure/pedicure. The place is really clean which was great! Bright, lots of open space and the massage chairs were nice. My girlfriend's massage chair didn't work, which was a bummer. There were two women and one man working at the time. The owner (I think?) was pleasant and friendly, as well as the gentleman doing my services. The woman who was doing my girlfriend's nails was a bit different. She didn't say hello or acknowledge my girlfriend in any way, and at one point was staring so hard at her she was glaring. When we met eyes I smiled at her and she rolled her eyes and continued to glare. It felt personal? It was extremely strange and uncomfortable. The pedicure was nice as well as the manicure. I was happy I had the Groupon, but I do not plan on returning. It was such an odd experience to have a total stranger hate us. read more

Polish Nail Bar is modern looking and offers nice bonuses in a mani pedi - as long as you're not offended by lack of interaction. From what I observed, appointments were necessary as they turned away a couple walk ins. I was satisified with my mani-pedi, with mani lasting about a week and pedi is three weeks and going. Shaping, cuticles and paint job was done well. I also enjoyed the hand massage and a shoulder massage was also offered. While this isn't a high end place, I felt the extras were a nice bonus. I don't know my technician's name because she barely said anything to me for the hour and an half we spent together. It doesn't bother me, but I can see how it could be awkward. This seems to be the norm as there was a sense of quietly working. I also had to wait a while before service started even with an appointment so spent over two hours there so it's not for anyone pressed for time. read more

Second time at the Polish Nail Bar ! I tried my favorite O.P.I color with new Dazzle Dry prep, base and top coat which dries nails so fast !!

A girlfriend and I bought a Groupon for a $15 pedicure - score! Much needed with the warm weather tease we get every so often. I scheduled a 4 o'clock appointment but was running late due to traffic and we called and they accommodated us. Parking was free outside for a change - score! We arrived and were asked to pick out our colors which were ever so meticulously ordered by color. I chose an OPI polish. We were seated and our water was awfully hot. I dealt with it but my friend's was unbearable and she had to let them know. They got started and were very meticulous, it was a long pedicure but enjoyable none the least. My tech didn't seem to speak very much English and appeared to be new and possibly training and so I would have trouble communicating with her when needed but the tech doing my friend would answer on her behalf. I enjoyed the pedicure but was disappointed when my tech dropped a nail tool on the ground and picked it up to continue using it on my toes. She didn't think to clean it and the ground is a breeding ground for bacteria. I was grossed out by this. The color I chose was very sheer and so she took her time and did three coats. Upon completion we went to the drying station where she proceeded to massage my shoulders and upper back. She made mention of the fact that I'm "so tiny" but went to town on that massage to the point it was painful. I had to ask her to be more gentle, she decreased the pressure slightly but I was uncomfortable the entire time and normally look forward to massages post mani/pedis. Obviously there was a disconnect between her being able to judge the amount of pressure someone will require at base line based on their frame. Nonetheless, this is not her primary job duty nor is she a licensed massage therapist but I would rather her not massage me though it is part of the service because of how heavy handed she was. We sat at the drying station for quite some time and the staff never came around to let us know we should be good to go. I had to make eye contact on my own for her to realize. This establishment doesn't have any phone service and so they provide their wifi information when asked. We were given punch cards for a free service after 12 services. They require a $10 minimum if using credit card for tip so it would be best to provide cash. I would be back if I had a Groupon otherwise nothing out of the ordinary that stands out to justify the drive into the city from the burbs. read more

I took my girls ages 8yo and 3yo. My 8yo and I had an appointment and I just thought someone could paint my 3yo nails quickly. They told me no and immediately my 3yo was beyond upset and hysterical crying. The owner arrived and because of my 3yo crying they asked the owner if she could paint her nails. They decided to paint her nails after much discussion and charge me over 15$ Everyone here was extremely rude including the owner. I will never take my girls or myself back there. Sad because we live so close and I always make sure they receive 20% tip. We were the first costumers of the day. Just sad the way we were treated. read more

I love their Essie no chip. They always apply lotion after the manicure is complete and my cuticles are never dry when I leave. At other locations after the polish is applied, they clean off the nail polish that got on the cuticles with the nail polish remover, this always drys my cuticles. Also a plus... they do not charge for soak off:-) The neck massage after the manicure is AMAZING!!! read more
