Loved the salon, clean and friendly with fresh vibe. Will be back. Gel X service was top tier and great price point. Close to 580 exit so location was easy to find. read more

RYU Nail Bar - Gel X amazing service! Worth the drive from Walnut Creek. Salon is clean, staff is friendly and quiet but cozy vibe. - Nail Salons Near Me - Dublin, California

Meticulous work. Have never left disappointed. Everyone here is friendly and my nails lasts longer than any other place I've gone to.

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel this is important to share. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was not welcoming. The salon was not clean, and there was an unpleasant odor that made it hard to relax. Instead of creating a calming environment, all you hear is constant chatter among the staff, which adds to the uncomfortable atmosphere. The pedicure was also very disappointing. They advertise a massage, but it's barely even a massage--just a few light touches that felt rushed and meaningless. Overall, the experience was not worth it, and I will not be returning. It's frustrating how difficult it is to find a clean, relaxing, high-quality nail salon in the Tri-Valley area. Unfortunately, this was not it. read more

Recently came in on a Sunday and while they were still booked with appointments, they got me in super fast! The owner's mom did my nails and boy was I lucky!!! She saw my cuticles needed some tlc and offered to touch them up. Brought a nice warm bowl with gold glitter flakes and a wrist pillow. And even when I was breaking my neck to look at my phone on the side of me she picked up and place it perfectly in the middle. Small things matter and she was attentive to make sure I had the best experience in every way from comfort to quality. Coming back in two weeks for my birthday set and to get my balayage touched up! They really do it all! read more

Very nice staff that accommodated me with no appointment and got a great mani and pedi by Tammy and Kim.

So cute thank you so much. As an engineer I like to have very short nails due to the amount of work I do. The ladies at this nail shop did not disappoint they are fast and friendly. read more

Finally found a nail salon that I absolutely love. They are so KIND and the attention to detail is amazing. I even came in with a nail injury from another salon and she was able to fix it entirely. I will 110% come back here. All of the staff are genuine and so kind. Btw they did not ask me to leave this review I just genuinely love my nails for the first time in forever. read more

I came here the other day, and I'm not too fond of the workers here because they talk negatively about the customers or make rude comments. I'm Vietnamese and so are the workers, and although I didn't communicate in Vietnamese, they probably thought I don't understand the language. One lady who did my pedicure said to the manicure lady that I'm probably don't have money to pay for fancy designs or along the line (it's just not my style or aesthetic...I like plain colors, so that was plain rude). The other lady who did my manicure made negative comments about my cuticles. It was just rude, and she got slightly upset that I accidentally scratched the gel polish because she had to redo it that one nail. Like, it was an accident. I just had to sit through there and breathe through while they made comments about me. At the end, they reminded me to give them a tip, and of course, I gave them because what was I supposed to do? If you don't understand Vietnamese, you'd probably have a much better time than me. read more

I went to this salon about a month ago, it was my first time ever getting my toes done and I was excited. They did a beautiful job HOWEVER, 3 days later a fungus started to develop on my right toe and has gradually grown since. Then when the gel chipped off I noticed half my big toe nail bed was coming off. Obviously this isn't normal. I paid $80 plus gave my tech a $20 tip so yes, I am frustrated that this happened. Beautiful work but I do not believe that this is the most hygienic place. Lesson learned: looks may be deceiving. read more

We chatted with some of the nail techs who recognized me and my friend since we've been coming every month for the last 5 months, every experience has been wonderful! They always do their best to make it look close to the inspiration photos that I bring in and they nailed it this time (pun intended)!! It's perfect for Halloween I almost started crying!! read more

I loveee the nails that Tammy did for me, she was really gentle with my hand and nails. She also asked for my opinions multiple times to make sure. It was an amazing experience after all read more

My sister and I had such a pleasant experience here! Not only did they take us in last minute but they really put thought and care when working on our nails. We both had builder gel manicures with the deluxe pedicure. Peri was so detail oriented and made sure everything was up to my expectations before I walked out of there. We will definitely be coming back as regulars! read more

My mom and I have been here a couple of times before, and we enjoyed this place a lot. However, we went in for an appointment at 4:15pm on a Sunday for a classic pedicure, and I was very disappointed. They rushed through the entire pedicure and finished in about 20 minutes. The stylist did not ask what type of pedicure I wanted, but they asked my mom what she preferred at the start. She did not trim my nails, nor did she clean up the cuticles. They advertise a 5 minute massage, but I barely received a 1 minute massage. By the time the stylist was ready to do my color, I looked over and my mom was still having her cuticles cleaned. I sat in the chair for a good 15 minutes or more waiting for my mom to finish up. I find it unfair to pay $40 for a half-done pedicure. As for the color application, there is paint on my cuticles. The corner of my big toe is missing color. The middle of my big toe also looks thin, as if the paint had been stripped by the clear coat. Furthermore, when I was going into my purse to get tip money, the lady kept smiling at me as if she was prompting me to tip her well. I am sad to be losing a new spot that I previously enjoyed. read more

The inspiration versus what I got! They were so busy so late in the day but made sure I received exactly what I asked for and I loved it :) Especially for nails that require lots of little detail and are a bit unconventional, I felt comfortable asking for adjustments and they were so patient and gave me their opinions as well. Super recommend, the ladies were so nice and my nails are 10/10. read more

Went in two weeks ago for a gel manicure and pedicure with Kimmy, she was so kind and my manicure/pedicure still look great! She would check in with me often to make sure I was happy with the manicure/pedicure. I did not feel rushed at all which I really appreciate. Kimmy is super sweet and thoughtful, will definitely be going back and requesting her. read more

Pedicure-First time- Helen was great- courteous staff, clean, thorough, easy to get to, like pre booking online- I'll be back!

I went with a group and was sadly disappointed, I asked for a new set and pedicure - the new set did not include a manicure so no cuticle cutting or buffing. I wanted to keep add shellac but the lady insisted no, so she cut them off and put acrylics on when I repeatedly said I did not want that, then came the color I wanted a pink nude and she went with a really light nude and stated it was going to take too many coats to get to what I wanted then charged me for ombré (when it clearly wasn't). The pedicure wasn't terrible just not the color I asked and then when I suggested another color the lady pretended like she didn't understand me and kept painting the color I didn't want. It came out to over $160 and was definitely not worth it at all. I will not be returning and my group also experienced charges for services they did not ask for or want. I will never recommend this place again and if you want quality for your money i'dsuggest going elsewhere. read more

LOVEDDD my nails!! Tammy took her time and really made sure I got exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend!!!

Had a great experience! Got the basic pedicure with gel. Attention to detail was great! The massage chairs were very relaxing. Thank you!

I booked a pedicure at RYU when they first opened and had a great experience. They were friendly, thoughtful, and provided a great atmosphere for me and my friend to get pampered while sitting side by side. I rarely get pedicures, so I loved spoiling myself with a package that came with a much-needed massage. read more

I've been following Minh (the owner) from before she opened her own salon and I was so excited to hear that she finally had her own place! The salon is so modern and clean and you can definitely tell that she put a lot of thought into making the place look as nice as the work that they do. I got my nails done by Minh and she did an amazing job -- she did even better than the Pinterest picture I showed her!! The staff are all so nice and I overall had an amazing experience and am definitely coming back when my current set grows out!! read more

Peri and Kim are absolutely amazing. Every time I've come in they both have listened to what I was asking for, provided feedback and we were able to give me the most beautiful nails. I look forward to coming to the salon knowing each visit will be better than the last. The pedicures are out of this world amazing, and the vibe in the salon is so chill.
