Started of good then it wasn't.. I came for acrylic removal and a pedicure. My pedicure was the worst. and my manicure removal went well. For the pedicure.: the nail part was cute however the bottom and the side of my feet looked the same as I came. I brought this to the techs attention and she's goes next time you have to book a callus treatment. WTH? I still have dead skin on my feet. What a scam!! I'm so mad I wasted my money and time. Thank goodness we live in a city with options! read more

I've found my new nail place. And actually, I didn't even realize I needed a new nail place. I'm in the process of trying to beautify and pamper myself in the days before I give birth, and getting a manicure and pedicure was on my list of desired treatments. I haven't had a mani pedi since at least October 2019, if not further back than that. They haven't been my #1 priority for pampering (that's a facial), but it do enjoy it. I learned about Dazzle Dry polish in the last year or so and have been curious to try it ever since, but it appears that there's only a few salons in the city that use it and so that's what led me to Spa Avenue. When I got there the woman who worked on me was ready to start immediately; it just took me a few minutes to choose my color. I suppose it was a fairly standard manicure/pedicure, but still I appreciated her attention to detail and she had a great touch--not too rough or anything. My hands and feet feel so nice and soft now. My hands had been really dry lately but they feel soft and supple a day later. Dazzle Dry is fantastic, so between that and the good service I experienced here that will keep me coming back. I usually don't get color on my fingernails when I get a pedicure, I just get them buffed because if they aren't chipped by the time I leave the salon, they are by the end of that same evening. Over 24 hours later, there's not a chip to be seen on my nails currently. It's supposed to last something like 7-10 days and I believe it. It's also great because unlike no-chip, it doesn't have to cure or anything and you can remove it with regular acetone nail polish remover I think. I didn't realize how excited I would be to be able to wear nail color on my fingernails again, or how much I love the look of it! I'm not kidding when I say I gave up on nail polish well over a decade ago and haven't worn it since, and now I can't wait to return and try other colors. I wish I had gotten the name of the nail tech who worked on me today because she was excellent and I'd love to request her specifically next time. But all the folks here seem to know what they're doing so I would expect to have a good experience with anyone. read more

This was my first time visiting Spa Avenue. While the establishment is nice and clean and the staff seem friendly, unfortunately, my toe was cut pretty badly during the pedicure. When this happened the nail technician didn't say anything, even to apologize or acknowledge that she cut me. I know it was an accident and I don't want hold it against them but felt relevant to add this experience as it was awkward, painful, and my toe bled quite a lot. Sadly, two days later my toe still hurts and is red and I worry it might be infected. read more

This going to become my regular manicure spot. Their no chip gel service results in the longest lasting, best looking nails I have ever seen! And the ambiance is calm and quiet-/ I always feel serene after an hour there. Maybe it's the video fireplace? Probably it's the great music and placid, kind demeanor of the ladies doing the services. Steps off the red line, several choices for eating and drinking if you want to make an afternoon or evening out of it. Also easy to find free parking in the afternoon.

The salon is under new management; I couldn't tell you what it was like before, but the digs are so clean and the atmosphere is relaxing.

I just moved into the neighborhood and found this salon on Yelp. I walked in for a regular manicure without an appointment mid-day Sunday and was seen immediately. The overall vibe is very relaxing, from the giant gold chairs to the spa music. I easily could have fallen asleep at the manicure chair! The color selection is decent -- not huge, but you could probably find any shade you're looking for. The woman doing my manicure was super charming and polite, offering me a drink and pulling out chairs for me to sit. She gave me a full hand massage in the middle of the manicure, and a shoulder/neck massage while I waited for my nails to dry. Overall, the place was so much more than just a manicure! It's a whole relaxing experience, which was perfect for a Sunday afternoon. The manicure was $15 plus tip. This is definitely my new go-to nail salon! read more

I've already written a review about Spa Avenue, but I have to do another one after the manicure I just got. I've been going here for almost a year, and they have done a consistently great job every single time. I have never left there disappointed. I trust no other nail salon in the city, I only go here. They're also extremely flexible with scheduling, I got an appointment on the same day (Friday) as I called. These ladies are seriously talented. The kind of job they do makes me feel more beautiful every time I leave the salon. The only thing that could improve the experience is if they gave longer hand massages. But overall, this is the best salon in the city with the most affordable rate! read more

My boyfriend and I have been trying every nail shop in the area. We've been pretty unimpressed with every location so far and have had more than a few bad experiences. BUT SPA AVENUE?! INCREDIBLE!!!! Both technicians were so sweet and had the perfect balance between communicating with us about what we wanted and allowing us to just talk to each other and enjoy the service. Both techs were so detailed and did proficient work. They were also so gentle. The spa itself was so beautiful. It was sparklingly clean and the chairs were SO comfortable. There were two seats for manicures and four for pedicures. Tons of options for colors. Genuinely the best manicure I've had in quite some time and my boyfriend and I both agreed that THIS is our new nail home! read more

Today was my first time at SA and I think I found my go-to place. A nice perk is that it's about four blocks away from me, but asides from that fact, I like the smaller size because it feels more personal than a larger, busier place. The atmosphere here is wonderfully calming and the first thing I noticed was how pristine, organized and clean it was. Cleanliness is a HUGE thing for me in salons, so I was happy about that. Ona did my mani-pedi today and she was extremely meticulous and I can honestly say this is the best nail experience I've had in the city (and I've been to so many places that I've lost count). I always get nervous requesting white polish because it comes out streaky 50% of the time, but mine look stunning on both my hands and feet. 5/5 would recommend this place. I'll be back in a couple weeks for another mani-pedi! read more

He asked me what I was looking for and made suggestions for a cut and style. During the wash, he used a shampoo and conditioner that was particular to my hair needs.

He's originally from Rome, and moved here for a better life for his children and family. We discussed our love for Italy and the best Italian restaurants in Chicago. Throughout the haircut, he gave me tips and tricks that I can do to improve the quality of my hair.

The pedicure was fine…read morebut why do don't one of the other staff do the manicure at same time --same tech did both and it took forever. Frustrating since other staff were doing nothing just walking around, on their phones. Plus the energy was so low.. just no life or fun.. they don't seem to care about the customer experience.

45$ for a pedicure when she couldn't even understand what I was asking and gave me a foot massage…read morefor 1 min. Will be going elsewhere for sure. I was surprised they were able to "fit me in" when there was only one other person in the whole salon getting their nails done.

Pretty bad quality. Gel nail polish all over my skin.

Be aware that this shop puts an illegal 3-month expiration date on gift cards. My friend bought me…read morea $30 gift card in October 2025 and the owner put an expiration date for Jan 2026. I thought she was just putting there as a courtesy and did not bother to ask thinking she would still honor it if just a few months late. Oh boy No. She declined the gift card when I went in Mar, only two months after the expiration date. My friend just basically gave her $30 and she took it without blinking. According to Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009, Gift cards cannot expire for at least 5 years from purchase or last reload. Illinois even has stricter rule about it stating that retail gift cards generally cannot have an expiration date. If a card says it expires, that term is typically unenforceable in Illinois. I don't care how often you need to go threading your eyebrows, but 3-month expiration period for gift cards is illegal. I will be filing a complaint with Illinois Attorney General's Office Update: your terms and conditions on the gift card are ILLEGAL. I was not rude to your staff. You did not want to provide me the service so you asked your assistant to do my eyebrows to get me out of the door. I did not want to waste my friend's money so I accepted and tipped her well. The gift card is good for two services and you took it and said that's it. If I'd known this is illegal, I would have kept the gift card as evidence and refused your service.
