After sitting through a pedicure politely with bugs crawling on me and next to me not to alarm other guests I told the owner. (After he actually rushed the woman providing my pedicure stating he needed the chair) he was extremely rude, did not care. Cut my pedicure and my wife's shorts at $60 each and did not provide so much as an apology or even $5 discount for cutting my session short of the array of bugs crawling around. Did NOT clean the area and immediately sat another customer instead of cleaning the space of bugs. Disgusting. My first experience was 5star. Today was NEGATIVE 5 Star. I would never go back and think I should have told everyone about the nastiness. I thought I was being polite and maybe they just didn't know. The fact he immediately say someone, shows lack of care and cleanliness read more

This place stinks like mold. It was very unpleasant and have no desire to go back. I was charged $20 for gel polish for one tiny line as a "french tip"on the top of my toenails. COMICAL!! I picked the $35 simple manicure just because it was my first visit & I wanted to try them out. I've gotten gel polish at other salons and it was never that high for the tiny drawn line, literally. So got up to pay & it was $55 so I took responsibility, I should have asked, but WOW. Very uncaring pedicure. Barely did anything with the scraping pad on my heels. I have never gave any nail salon or beautician a bad review but skip this place. It is SO not worth it!! Not a friendly staff either!! read more

I got a deluxe pedicure by Tammy on a Friday afternoon. I was a walk in customer and they immediately greeted me and had me seated with no wait. The man working at the front is awesome and really funny. Tammy did a great job and took her time with my pedicure and leg massage. I would highly recommend her if you get a pedicure here! read more

So I have yet to experience the bug issues that the other reviewers had I can say the customer service is vastly different then when the owner / manager is not here but when he walks in you can feel the difference...sad to say we probably won't be back bc I can't time my schedule around his off time read more

One star 1, only because I have to! The website advertised $59 new set GEL nails. Upon arriving, my friend, visiting from the EU, was greeted kindly and was excited to get her nails done My friend requested GEL NAILS AS ADVERTISED on their website. In addition, she had called them first to verify!!! The gentleman that proceeded to do her nails consistently increased the costs of doing her nails, until the price reached close to $89 PLUS TIP!!! The nails looked fine, however they were uneven and thick. When she said that she thought they maybe be a bit too thick, his reply was that he did that on purpose so that they would last for her return to Europe. BSBSBS It wasn't long, at all, beforeshe started to experience extreme discomfort and swelling of her fingers at the cuticle. It apparently was a reaction to the gel that he used. We tried using anti itch cream and prescription steroid cream to relieve the itching and swelling. That did help some, but she decided to have the product removed, just to be safe. We went to my nail salon to have the nails removed. The salon owner told her that they were in fact NOT GEL but acrylic covered in gel polish!!! It took over an hour of soaking and filing to finally remove the horrible mess from her hands. I strongly recommend that you AVOID THIS SALON OF THIEVES AND LIARS!!! read more

I worked in food service for most of my life; so getting my nails done was a special occasion thing. I have changed careers and changed my mind! The staff at River Nails Spa are fantastic. This is such a lovely and relaxing experience; I never want to go anywhere else. My hands and feet look and feel wonderful. Thomas and the staff always offer refreshments. Ask Thomas to show you his aquarium; he's proud of it, and he should be. It's another soothing and elegant feature. There's plenty of parking and places to grab a bite afterwards. And so many choices of colors! Check out what I've chosen read more

Very clean, very reasonable, very accommodating. Just wanted to get a nice treatment because I haven't had a pedicure in a while and my son has a basketball game tonight and his toenails were way too long. I called and they were able to get all three of us in. It was quiet and peaceful and I loved the cold cucumber wrap very nice!! We all enjoyed ourselves the chairs are very comfortable and not too harsh with the massage and they are pretty! I recommend this place if you're looking for a nice clean pedicure!! read more

July 22nd, 2025, 5:10 pm . Came in for a pedicure. Cockroach crawls on me when I sit down. It falls in the water where my feet are. It drowns, the guy leaves it, Then I see 4 more. Manager tells me cockroaches are everywhere in Florida and that he's spraying later on. He then asked me if they were big or small and says you can't help it when there's water all around. How can I relax, I'm afraid to sit back in the seat thinking one is going to crawl on me again . I will never return here. This was my favorite place but I can't do bugs crawling on me while I'm getting a pedicure. Horrible experience! read more

I found this nail salon because I frequently eat at Fusion Sushi next door. I took a pamphlet from outside their door and checked out their reviews. I was glad to see that it was freshly renovated. I booked a pedicure appointment for the next day. The owner on the phone was very friendly and helped me book an appointment. For such a skinny storefront, the salon goes all the way back and has plenty of stations and pedicure chairs. I picked out my color and pedicure type and was seated at a massage chair. This salon is spotless. Super clean and the workers are super friendly. All 3 people working said hello and welcomed me. Ann did my pedicure and she was awesome!! I finally found a new spot that is convenient to where I live. Not only did she cut and file my toenails short like I asked, but she did some reflexology massage on my feet too. The standard pedicure felt deluxe. I enjoyed talking with the other woman doing a pedicure next to me about restaurants we liked. The pedicure was $35 which is in line with other salons and spas. I really, really recommend this place!! So comfortable and great service. read more

I've been 4 times. Twice I had good service and a good, long lasting pedicure with regular polish. Twice I had good service and polish that did not last a week. I think the person (two different ones) missed something in the process. Last week my polish came off on three nails before the end of the day. I get the basic service but this is not a good value. I will not go back. read more
