I called the same day and they took me in right away. I showed them a pic of the design I wanted and Cici did her thing. I love the atmosphere. They're very welcoming and accommodating as well. I also got a generous discount for paying cash! Def coming back read more

A friend recommended Rika. I went for the first time yesterday and it did not disappoint! Gina is an absolute artist and designed my dream nails for me. I'm obsessed with how pretty they are. I ended up paying $110 which also seemed very reasonable to me given the level of detail and cat eye polish. Highly recommend! read more

I love Rika Nail Salon! They always do a fantastic job with my pedicure and create a welcoming environment by offering me a choice of water or tea when I arrive. They recently updated their pedicure stations to clear tubs which give a spa like vibe, and the seating arrangements are very comfortable. The staff is kind, thoughtful, and attentive. Rika is the only place I go for my pedicure because I know they'll always get it right! read more

Not great! Not even good. All the tools didn't seem to be cleaned / sanitized before being used on me. They were pulled directly from the techs kit in front of me and seeing her do a quick glance at them before cutting. No real buff on the nails and ignored the one that needed it the most. Got cut three times while cleaning out the dead skin. And the shape is not clean either. Won't be back. read more

Months later and I'm STILL dealing with the fallout from this awful manicure. The lady doing my nails used a nail drill to remove my Gel-X nails and drilled off so much of my actual nail; she filed my nails down so thinly that I essentially have to grow out the entire nail to get back a smooth surface, as seen in the photos. You can see where the drilled down nail is still not drown out. I am only updating because I have had to pay money and take time to repair this damage. read more

My two friends and I decided to stop in to get a quick pedicure on Sunday and were left very upset. As a service worker in the area, Rika has been by far the most recommended salons to try. While my one friend and I had a pretty average experience our friend visiting from out of town was nonstop bleeding for 45 minutes after a small chunk of her pinky toe was sliced. The staff seemed unsure of how to deal with the situation and she left with her toes unpainted and wrapped in a band aid. Luckily there was no question about her being charged but we left very disappointed. read more

Went in for a Gel X manicure with Cece, and I'm so glad I did! She had such great attention to detail--every nail was perfect. Plus, she recommended this beautiful color that I didn't even know I needed in my life. They have a ton of new and interesting colors, so if you love variety, this is your place. I booked a same-day appointment with no issues, which was super convenient. Now, the vibe is a little... minimalist. Don't expect a super spa-like atmosphere. It's pretty quiet, with everyone glued to their phones (thanks to the handy little phone stands at each table--mystery solved!). That said, it felt clean and sanitary, and for the quality of work, the price was pretty great! All in all, if you're after a detailed manicure without the frills, I'd definitely recommend. read more

I had a great experience getting a powder mani and gel pedi here! I made an appointment beforehand. Everyone was very friendly and the space was relaxed. My nail tech Nana was so meticulous and took her time to make sure each nail was uniform and perfect. After a few days, my nails are looking just as great as when I left the salon. I'll definitely be back when it's time for a touch up! read more

My first time trying this place out! Called Saturday morning and was able to get an appointment in the afternoon. I like that when I arrived for my appt I was seated right away. The space is very clean and well aerated. Kayle did my nails. I initially just came for gel pedicure but ended up really liking the experience and asked if I could stay for a mani. For my pedi I really liked that she asked me questions regarding my preferences and would adjust if I asked her to change something. For my mani I've always gotten the gel-X and this was the first time has ever told because I have a slight curve to my nails I should get the sculpted gel x . And it really sat on my nails SO much better than what I've had in the past . I got ombré gel X mani and it's beautiful! I really have no complaints. She finished it off with a nice hand, arm, shoulder, and back massage. Will definitely be coming back !! read more

1st Time I came into the place to get a Apres Gel and Spa Pedicure with Callus Remover. They were very new so I was able to see someone right away. I was greeted when I came in. Like the job. It last long enough. I had to go on a quick trip and was satisfied. 2nd Time: I decided to come back for a Gel pedicure. I was pressed for time and couldn't go to my go to spot. Since I remember liking my pedicure last time I figured why the heck not. They acted like they didn't honor the service in the beginning of my service and try to charge me full price. Once I had to explain they brought the front reception and when I explained all of the sudden they remember when they look at their POS system. After than was finally learned the technician was pretty rough and had to direct him. The callus remover seemed good so far. I will leave an updated review to see if the callus remover has any effect. At least during the hot summer they had the AC on. The bathroom was functional. However there was a HUGE hole in the ceiling. Looks like anything can fall out of it. read more

Super clean also as I am really picky nice bathrooms & music upbeat feeling. read more

please avoid this place. they use really cheap products that are not up to par. look at all their 1 star reviews of chipped gel manicures after only 2 days. $50 down the drain. also, the tech, miki, is really lazy and unprofessional. she doesn't take her job seriously or do it well. this is a photo of gel manicure 1.5 days after doing it and it's already chipping! read more

Overpriced. Not worth it. Go somewhere else. Bare minimum salon. Using a callus remover is an add-on when I'm paying $39 for a pedicure? Never returning to this place. I didn't even have a color. Again, go somewhere else. C- service. read more

They consistently do a good job for a great price. I typically get a design and they always ensure it's done with great care.

This is my new favorite salon for hands / nails. Overall the staff is friendly and talented and it's easy to make an appointment. They do decent pedicures but the pedicure chairs do not have massage capacities. Very centrally located near Barclays Center. read more

I came here with a lady friend of mine. She got recommended from a friend of her about this Nail Salon. We stopped by at their grand opening day. We came early because we didn't want to wait in line and etc. Not to mention that they do 10% off promotion on their grand opening, which seem pretty generous. This place is pretty cozy and great interior design! We got serviced pretty quickly at a timely manner. The staff there are nice and welcoming. My friend she did a Pedi & Medi and she love it. The price range for both are just right. Nothing too dramatic sky-high price. Especially nowadays economy. Hopefully they keep it this way for a while. Make sure you pay with cash you get additional 5% off with the grand opening promo total of 15%!!! Lastly, I guess my friend found a new spot to do her nail make over and etc. Give them a try and you won't regret it! One thing they should add is a little more greens! Like plants or flower, it will definitely changes the atmosphere when you're waiting there. read more

I was overdue for my mani/pedi and happened to be in the neighborhood for other things. Came across Rika and stopped in late in the afternoon on a Monday. As most shops like, an appointment is great thing, unfortunately, I was a typical walk-in. The place was bright and clean. The lady who greeted me was very pleasant and accommodating. She took me in right away and sat me down. Pedi with all freshly sterilize tools, brand new hermetically sealed emory board. Nice. Most places they reuse and reuse the emory board till its just a board with no emory. Just memory. Next came the mani...again, freshened tools(Same board from the mani, since it was only used on me.) Quality was outstanding. Actually the polish went on with perfection. No runs , no bubbles. No color. Yes I only go clear, base and top. Was a pleasant experience overall. I will go back. read more

Rika is my "go to" nail salon. Typically, I'm very selective on who does my nails. In all honesty however, at Rika - ALL of the girls do a phenomenal job! My nails and toes stay looking fabulous for several weeks! They don't chip, break, lift, etc. LOVE Rika!!! read more

4 stars on cleanliness and work 3 stars on the no special treatment Newish nail salon amongst a ton in the area. What I like about this place is that it has some polishes that claim to last longer but cost $2-$5 more on top of your manicure. Mani is bare bones - quick massage nothing special. You get a discount for cash which is nice, but I wish they were just a bit more. Lastly, (this is just a preference thing) can't you just massage my shoulders for 1 min when I sit down to dry? Maybe I just appreciate the extra attention from other salons. read more

Had the most amazing experience here! This was my first time coming here and I brought my boyfriend along to do a pedi. Took me a VERY long time to convince him that we both needed pedicures. At first he was very hesitant and embarrassed but ended up loving the experience. After our pedis I also scheduled for a manicure. I had a picture in mind of what I wanted to do and Cici made sure she did something similar, she told me that it wasn't going to look exactly the same as the picture and I said that's fine! Just trying to go for a similar concept was great for me. She was nervous in the beginning and I told her she was doing great. The end result? Amazing. We're definitely coming back again! read more

Rika is great. I've done various pedicures at different levels as well as a basic manicure, gel and builder gel. The time and attention provided is always great and they offer tea and water for refreshments. They don't rush you out after your appointment and when not busy you can stay on the pedicure chairs while your toes dry. Cash is always a cheaper option over card but they'll tell you the difference before you pay. Overall it's a great, clean salon and everyone who works there is friendly. read more

I went here on Saturday pretty last minute while in Brooklyn to get a full set and a pedicure. The pedicure was fine no complaints. But once I started the full set I was brought a menu with different types of full sets. The one that sounded most like a regular full set was $110 ... starting lol for short nails. So I asked for a recommendation in which I was told the $80 option was going to last long and look very natural. Fine. The woman doing them pulls out these SUPER short full nails & I said they were too short because they'd have to be made square(the tips were coffin) . But she continued lol at this point it's taking a while so I just let her finish. Well 2 days later these "long lasting nails" started coming CLEAN OFF. I work a low maintenance job & rarely lose a nail that quick. I spent $200 and have no nails now lmao read more

Clean, friendly staff. I had a great pedicure and manicure. Felt cozy and relaxed, not at all rushed and I spent the extra $5 on better polish and my nails have held up well. I wish they had massage chairs for the pedicure, so that's a bit disappointing but won't keep me from not returning. They offered water and tea as well. read more

Came here on a whim and had a FANTASTIC experience with Cici! She took her time with my nails...didn't feel rushed at all. The place is clean and very hospitable with tea offerings upon sitting. The only drawbacks I'd say is there aren't a ton of colors to choose from, no massage chairs for pedi's and that the prices are a bit high but to be completely honest....everything was very much worth it as I think with nail salons you really get what you pay for. I'll definitely be venturing back if I'm in this neighborhood again! read more
