    How in the world did this place get 4.5 stars?! I should have scrolled down and looked at the other later reviews to get a better idea what I was to expect. Just got probably the worst manicure in my life. First their colors are a lie. I chose a color based on their samples and the color turned out COMPLETELY different. Next she (Donna) screwed up my nails and had to keep redoing them and they still look HORRENDOUS. There's paint on my skin, looks like a 5 year old painted my nails. See picture below. I AM NEVER COMING BACK.

    Thank you Donna for an awesome manicure and pedicure (gel) I'm very pleased with both they came out beautiful! The large selection of colors is overwhelming in a good way. Very relaxing too! Will definitely be back soon.

    The sweetest ladies I have ever come across in a nail salon. They take the time to make sure that you are happy with the work, and will remember their regulars. I always get a gel mani when I come, and while my nails will grow out, the color itself will last upwards of 4 weeks, it's amazing! You def get your money's worth and more. I've recommended my friends and family to try this place and everyone so far has fallen in love. My cousin will drive all the way from Daly City just so that she can get her nails done here.

    I came here for a fill and shellac color. Th fill itself was fine and Donna did a good job filing and shaping my nails. I had one broken nail, which I told her was sensitive and asked to soak off instead of rip off with the cuticle cutters. She wrapped the nail in a acetone soaked cotton ball and foil and gently filed off the mushy acrylic. I was very grateful that she was gentle and didn't try to rip off the acrylic like many other places have done. She took her time. They have a good color selection. She was very nice and friendly. One complaint is that she was quite rough filing the sides of my nails, like digging the file in between my nail and skin. She also filed the top of the shellac edge, near my cuticle, which no one has ever done to me before and it was quite painful on my cuticles. As soon as I left, I noticed one area where the shellac color sort of bubbled. I should have gone back but I needed to head out of town. It lasted like that for two hours before it chipped/peeled off (while I was drying my hands on paper towel). I have NEVER had this happen! By the end of that day, I had 4 fingers where the top layer of shellac chipped off. Usually shellac will last me 3 weeks. So, I'm quite disappointed. I may try this place again for a pedicure, but I will not be getting another fill here.

    I'm big on supporting all the local nail salons. Keeping up nice fingernails and toes is something both ladies and men should do. Its a direct reflection of how you up keep all the rest. Excellent Nails is a great place to handle it... Tips: (+)Talented nail artist here-- Great spot for nail art and bling! (-) Best to call ahead to make an appointment ( at least a few hours, otherwise they may not be able to get you in.) (-)They are kind of slow, but do a descent job. (It took an entire two hours for a shellac manicure and pedicure including the nail art)

    Thanks Lien and Ha!

    This is my favorite nail salon and I will never go anywhere else! There are now four fabulous gals working here and all of them do a great job! I have no complaints about excellent nails. They listen to what you want and will do anything to make you happy with your nails so if you want something a certain way, just speak up! I notice a lot of return clientele here including my mom, best friend, and I and I absolutely know why - this isn't a typical nail salon- as always the girls are friendly, personable, and kind. Loving my new glittery pink tips that Ha and Lien special mixed for me. Thank you and I will be back :) (literally, coming back for a fabulous pedicure later today.. Can't get enough!)

    I'm happily back with Donna here at Exceljent Nails after I tried three other local salons that do dip manicures.

I told the owner, Tracy that I was on a time crunch and she told me she could finish in 30 minutes and she was actually able to get me out the door in 30 minutes! I told her I wanted just simple hearts on two nails because I had limited time and she told me she could do the whole hand design and still get me out on time and she delivered. A newer nail salon in Redwood City quoted me $50 EXTRA for the design so I literally got up and left because that's ridiculous and I won't be taken advantage of. At other salons, my nails can take up to 90 minutes because they're helping other people and doing god knows what but she had me in and out with beautiful nails in 30 min so I definitely found my new nail spot.

She takes the time to look over inspiration photos with me and offers her professional insight, and when I let her be creative and free-play with the designs, the results are always stunning. Tracy truly has an eye for detail. Her salon is adorable, painted pink inside and out, and she always has fresh-cut flowers from Trader Joe's along with beautiful plants that make the space feel so welcoming. Her staff is equally wonderful--attentive, friendly, and kind--and they even offer refreshments. I genuinely love coming here; they make you feel comfortable and cared for from start to finish.

I came in on a whim before an out of town trip as the ratings were high and every review seemed positive. I showed up, with no appointment for a manicure and a pedicure. And lucky for me, they got to me within 10 minutes! First and foremost the layout of the salon is very modern and very well kept--everything is in its place and all work areas were clean without smelling like cleaning solution. Definite thumbs up. The ladies here are extremely nice. I think what surprised me most, is how quiet the shop was. Literally silent despite the audibles of nails being worked on. The customers--three of four chairs taken--weren't talking to the nail techs and the nail techs only spoke to ask questions. Definitely a change of pace from other salons I've been to. Setting the expectation-- this isn't your average salon for pedicures... while you do get a big comfy chair to sit in, there is no fancy massager built-in or a giant bubbling basin to soak your feet in. In fact, I soaked my feet in a collapsible bucket with lukewarm water. HOWEVER... the pedicure was decent enough. Sugar scrub was included... and the nail filing and cuticle trimming was pretty good. Being that I didn't want to complicate my service, I opted for a solid white gel nail for my toes. Simple. Clean. Perfect for vacation. Worth $65? Debatable. We'll see how long they last. For my manicure however, I chose to do builder gel on my nails with a specific design my fiancé found on Pinterest. My nail tech, Mandy-- really brought the vision to life straight from the Pinterest board! The best part of this was having Mandy confirm with me every step of the way to make sure I was satisfied with how everything looked and felt. I'm so happy with how everything turned out, I look forward to coming back to this location for future manicure services! Just one last note: the ladies here prefer you pay for services on your card and tip with cash, so be sure you are ready for these types of transactions!!
