This is my go-to spot ever since I've moved to Dublin. The service is top tier. I get the signature pedicures as often as I can and occasionally gel manicures if there's a special occasions. They usually do my manicure while I'm getting the pedicure, so I don't have to be there too long. As a mom, that is one of the things I need the most - something fast! All of the staff is friendly and accommodating. The place is clean. Variety of colors is nice. Today I witnessed a difficult customer and they treated her with extreme patience and kindness even though she wasn't being very kind herself. The pastel polishes are my favorite! They have massage chairs for pedicures and even offer you a list of refreshments. Oh, a huge plus - they always answer their phone! read more

I went in for acrylics and my nail snapped off immediately after leaving. I bumped my hand on something but it wasn't with a lot of force. I went back in(crying cause it hurt and these were my vacation nails) asking for help and the employees laughed me out... needless to say I won't be going back read more

TEA Nails - No refunds - Nail Salons Near Me - Dublin, California

Had a very bad experience i still can't forget even after 2 years and never went back. I even had my 6 years old with me and they decided to give no value to my time when another customer came an hr after me(3 of the folks were working on that lady). Just one time I decided to give my nails a break by not going with expensive power dip or acrylic, I suddenly became invisible. Guess at what time I finally got my nails done 7:30 pm after waiting with powder removal solution for more than 40-50 mins + intial wait time 30+ to get to the table. read more

I came in hoping for a relaxing experience, but unfortunately, I left feeling disappointed and tense. The person who did my manicure was not kind or welcoming, which made the visit uncomfortable from the start. I decided to try this salon instead of my regular one, but it turned out to be a mistake. The pedicure was just okay -- very rushed. The mini massage lasted about two seconds, and my heels were still dry at the end. The gel application was thick, uneven, and sloppily applied over my cuticles. It felt careless. I should've read the reviews beforehand, because I now see many people have complained about similar issues: rude service, overpriced treatments, and poor quality. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back. read more

It's 10:16 and the shop is still not open as I wait here with another person for their shop to open. I had to return because they did a poor job on my manicure. Nails were cut crooked and uneven on most of my toenails.. I was met with an aggressive owner talking down to me and acting very dismissive! Should've realized that yesterday but it was covered in moisturizer. That's what I get for tipping a generous amount! read more

I have come here multiple times now. Good service, good vibes, good music. Personalized attention. Quality work.

I have been here multiple times, but the quality of service is going bad. All services are just rushed. The main lady in charge is very rude. Never going back read more

I really wanted to like this place since I just moved out here and was hoping to find a go-to nail salon for myself and my friends, but unfortunately this was not it. My pedicure felt extremely rushed, she only swept the scrub up and down once, didn't actually exfoliate my feet, and skipped lotion at the end. When I asked, she told me she already did lotion at the beginning of the pedicure, which made no sense. The whole time during my manicure and pedicure, she looked visibly annoyed, which made the whole experience uncomfortable. The vibe wasn't welcoming, the service was mid at best, and I definitely won't be coming back. Disappointing. read more

I never leave bad reviews, but I went in for a regular pedi and gel manicure. I left thinking they did an okay job with the manicure- the cuticles and edges weren't done well. A few days later the gel polish started lifting off on the edges . A week later they all peeled right off very easily, which has never happened to me before. Usually gel lasts at least 2 weeks and it's a struggle to for me to remove it. The ladies were seemed nice, but the manicure job was clearly done terribly. read more

Been coming for several years and I've never been disappointed. Highly recommend the ladies of Tea Nails!

I got a dip powder mani done on Sunday 2/11, today is Thursday 2/15 and it's already lifting.. I asked for brown French tips and the lines from the tips are all uneven and my index finger and pinky has thicker polish than the other nails. I've spoken up a few times about it being uneven and the lady seemed to get frustrated and didn't say anything the rest of the time she finished my nails... poor service from Thu. Mind you, I paid $80 for this manicure. Not coming back. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because I also received a gel pedicure. The lady named Ha did an amazing job and spent a lot of time massaging my feet & legs as well and kept asking if I was doing okay. read more

I'm the kind of woman that always has to have nails done. I've been this way for over 10 years. Throughout this time I've tried various different salons across Alameda and Contra Costa county. Some have great service, but lack expertise. Some have great expertise, but lack great service. It's really difficult to find the perfect balance of the best of both worlds in a nail salon in the Bay Area. TeaNails, has the perfect balance!! When you arrive, they promptly greet you and offer you something to drink, tea or water. (I have not seen many nail salons do this--what a way to make your customers feel special!) There is also a self service kiosk at the entrance to "check-in". Checking in gives the customer an opportunity to collect rewards points. (I've also never seen any other salon do this.) Let's be real--getting your nails done in 2024 is expensive, but having this option is definitely a great way to get redeem yourself from the cost of your next visit!! Tracy and her team at TeaNails always go the extra mile to make sure you are happy with your nails. As a people pleaser myself, it's difficult to tell someone giving me a service that I need something changed or different. Working with Tracy makes it all so easy. She asks all the right questions in order to make sure your vision comes to life and checks with you again about the shape before starting your color polish. Personally, this is such an important step for me and makes for a much more relaxing experience as far as trust goes! Tracy is an experienced professional nail technician and is the most pleasant person to work with. She's my go-to nail lady for life. TeaNails and Tracy have my trust and customer loyalty. I highly recommend Tracy and her team at TeaNails!!! read more

Went in for what was supposed to be a relaxing mani/pedi and came out with a bleeding cuticle. And though they apologized for not being gentle with my toe, I wasn't offered any sort of discount on service. I feel that's the least a salon should do when a service goes wrong. read more

It's a super cute Salon, and it's clean. Prices are pretty comparable. More 3.5 stars, but I'll round it up to 4. Pros: -cute -clean -prices are comparable As I am sitting here getting my service done I realize they may have overbooked themselves. The the woman who did my pedicure did good on the polish, but she got distracted on the massage part of the portion. So I felt like I didn't really get a full on massage. Some parts were missed by the lotion until I mentioned something. Also, I'm slightly disappointed the service did not include paraffin wax with the price of $64 like other salons. Paraffin is treated as an add-on for an additional amount. read more

I don't normally leave bad reviews, but my experience today at Tea Nails was absolutely awful and people deserve to know. I brought my two young daughters (6 and 8 years old) along with two friends for what was supposed to be a fun Mother's Day treat. I was told over the phone they offer kids' mini manicures and pedicures. When we arrived (on time), they rushed us into seats without any organization or basic courtesy. They grabbed my daughters without even asking me about their color choices -- and instead of the pink they wanted, they slapped on random cream and gold colors. No cleaning, no trimming, no care -- they barely even glanced at their nails. Then came my own manicure. I picked a beautiful Cinderella blue, but the service was a disaster. They didn't clean my cuticles, they rushed through the polish without even letting it dry properly, and they cut one of my nails painfully short. I was hurt three different times during the service. It felt like they just wanted to shove us out the door as quickly as possible. My friends were also extremely upset because they didn't get what they asked for either. To top it off, the price we were charged was nothing close to what's listed on their menu -- complete false advertising. While we were there, another poor customer was literally crying to her daughter, upset that they hadn't cleaned her nails either. Clearly, our bad experience wasn't just a one-off -- this place has serious problems. The staff was rude, careless, and completely unprofessional. When I politely asked to speak to a manager or someone in charge, they told me to leave! Unbelievable. If you care about your money, your time, and your sanity -- stay away from Tea Nails. One of the worst salon experiences I have ever had. Total waste of money. read more

Tea Nails is the best! My nails have never been so healthy and they last so long. I have been coming here for years and they never disappoint. Highly recommend dip powder read more

For the price, the services are not worth it! I've never heard of a mini massage for a pedicure so I thought oh it must be the same as everyone else. Wrong! It was literally a mini massage maybe 1 minute each leg lol. The lady doing my nails stopped to start someone else's nails and left mine looking real bad. Nails are chipping already and have bubbles. The polish is not even. Overall bad experience and will not return. read more

I can't say enough great things about this nail salon. The salon is modern and clean. Everyone here is really very kind and customer oriented. I have been going here for years and never been disappointed. Tracy and Tiffany did it again today with my beautifully hand designed nail dip powder. My pedicure was also fabulous. The whole experience is relaxing and I will never go to a different salon but this one. If you haven't visited Tea nail salon you are missing out.

Never coming back here again, I've come here a few times before and it was fine but this time all I asked for was a basic French and they were really rude & pushy when it came to me not liking the way they were doing the French on me . I said multiple times and showed pictures and the lady doing my nails was almost annoyed that I didn't like it even tho im being charged $75 for this. How hard is it to do a basic French and make it look even, when I told her to clean it up a bit she shoved my hand into the UV light. Absolutely not coming back here ever again and the fact this place has more stars then other places amazes me. And the end I'm pushed for tip for something I don't even like? Lmao the audacity of this place read more

TEA Nails - Uneven French - Nail Salons Near Me - Dublin, California

I typically don't fall in love with any nail salons, as long as they do the job and they do it decent, I'm good. So when people have their "go to salon", I never really Understood it (shoulder shrug), because I literally will try any new one or go anywhere. But today, I think I found my "go to salon"!! The pedi was AMAZING, a little pricey but hey, the extra few bucks is worth it! My feet feel like my baby's bottom; soooo soft! The pain was flawless! I've never been so please with a pedicure! The ladies here are very sweet! Guys, I found my nail salon!! Never turning back! read more

TEA Nails - Pamper time - Nail Salons Near Me - Dublin, California

I have never gone to this nail shop before but I decided to check it out. I went in and asked for a gel pedicure. Usually with gel pedicure, as you get a scrub, a good massage and lotion and cuticle oil put on, but it did not come with that and then when I did put the lotion on, the massage wasn't great. I think the lady was mad because I said I didn't wanna add on any scrubs or do an extra treatment. i've been to many other nail shops and they always have great service. I asked a lady to give me a square shape on my toes and she ended up cutting me a little bit and then asked if I was OK after doing it a second time. Then when I went up and paid and when I didn't leave a tip, the lady gave me an attitude . Poor service for $53 and there was only one other lady inside the store. read more

I was a walk in and didn't have an appointment. I had never been here before but I loved the final result. The price I paid at the end was higher than what I was initially told. read more

TEA Nails - Chrome ombré gel - Nail Salons Near Me - Dublin, California

I got a set of glitter cat eyes today and it was $70 without tips. It was my first time getting my nails done at Tea Nails. I have a nail place in Pleasanton that I go to all the time but I wanted to try a new place. The lady who did my nails was very sweet and she really tried her best which was why I gave two stars. But it was just not good. I added some photos here. I didn't have any nail polish on before I visited them. The style I got was dipped, with a top coat of cat eyes. As you can see in the photos, the dipped nails overall were super thick, uneven and some polish even got on my cuticles. The cat eye effect was very unnoticeable. For $70 I was expecting at least a very clean look. I don't think I would visit this place again. read more

I've been coming to Tracy and her team at Tea Nails since they opened in 2015, and they have only improved over the years. I no longer live in Dublin, but will drive 30+ minutes to continue to get my nails here every month. Tracy and her team are on top of nails trends, deliver consistent quality and are always so friendly and accommodating. These women are like an extended family to me--and I cannot recommend them more! They introduced me to dip powder, and I have turned back. But Tracy does a great job of keeping herself updated on new techniques and products. read more

I definitely wish I was leaving a more positive review, but I am committed to sharing my honest review and experiences on this platform. I called ahead on Thurs., 12/21 for a same-day pedicure appointment and they said I can come in at 5pm. I arrived on time and they seated me immediately. Michael did my pedicure. He was very nice, but it was quite honestly the worst pedicure I've ever received. THE PEDICURE: I wish I could have filmed the service just to show how poorly it was done. He didn't clean, trim, or push back the cuticle area at all, did not clean under the nail, or scrub the nails as other places do. When he polished my nails, there was a big spot missing polish and I asked him to fix it. All he did was add massive layers of gel polish to try and cover it (I could still see it after). The massage was just okay. The entire service took 45 minutes--the quickest pedicure I've experienced. This was considered the "Spa Pedicure" described as a luxury service which didn't feel luxurious at all. THE PRICING: I opted for the "Spa Pedicure" which was $62. The service was not even close to being worth that amount. The gel polish was an additional $18 which is a scam because I did not even ask for gel polish - I was never given a choice. And why is this an $18 add-on? A full bottle of gel polish is less than $15! In total I paid $80 and I chose not to tip as this was not a tip-worthy service nor was it worth the $80 I was charged. They seem like nice people and is the only reason I'm giving more than one star. But unfortunately, I will not be a returning customer. read more

Had a long day and was in need of a pedicure. I called TEA Nails and they were able to take me right away. Parking was a bit sparse as they are located in a complex with multiple shops but I was able to snag one as someone was coming out. As I entered in, I enjoyed the relaxing music. The person who took me showed me my chair and started complaining how tired he was and then asked if I wanted to do a gel pedicure. I said no thanks, and then he said it lasts longer, and I said I'm ok thanks, and then he said are you sure? and I finally just said yes, I want to stick with just a pedicure. The pedicure itself was mediocre at best. He did not clean my cuticles and I had to keep asking him to go back to certain nails as it seemed like he was going through the motions but not actually doing anything. The massage was decent but it was more like putting lotion on my legs (no massage was done on the actual foot or toes). As he was wrapping up my pedicure he asked if I wanted a manicure, I said no thank you, and then he said "why? do you have to cook tonight?" I understand trying to upsell your customers but I had come to TEA Nails for a relaxing break. I was in and out in 15 minutes - usually pedicures that are $30+ take at least 30 minutes. Right when he finished, he let me know he was done and had me get out of the seat - not even let me sit for a few minutes to dry. Overall, 2 stars for the clean and calming atmosphere with the music but I will not be coming back here. read more

This review reflects my first return visit in 4 years which I will update after my nails cure completely and how well my dip set holds out after three weeks for an honest product opinion. Shop professionalism, cleanliness, and ambiance was very high in my rating. The salon was very clean and very well kept with products orderly and organized. Tracy was lovely and that's not a trait I would ever say I find with salon staff at most nail boutiques. Tracy was personable and remained alert checking on me whenever I looked up at her from the chair as she walked by and asked how I was doing if everything was okay and stopped to talk to me at length when I asked about the chrome colors. The salon vibe is truly relaxing and serene with harp music playing softly the entire time without the sometimes uncomfortable unprofessional chatter between nail techs during services. I'm not against coworkers talking amongst one another to check in but it's a more pleasant experience for patrons when your tech attempt to build rapport with you and tune into your experience. This was by far one of the most professional salons I have visited with the most spa-like environment. I found that I had visited 4years ago and recognized my mani photo by my wedding ring in one of the earliest pics on their yelp site. Why I didn't return baffles me, I wrote my original review on Michael's work - he did my dip nail set and again this visit as well. I honestly don't remember my visit years ago because the pedi wall looks completely different now and had been going to other salons where relatives and friends frequent then took a break at the height of the pandemic. I've returned to Tea nails arriving as a result of many bad experiences over these past two years post pandemic. The vibe was so welcoming, Tracy intook me, looked at my set and asked some initial questions while she examined and correctly identified the nail tips. I explained my disappointment with the set I had on -unevenness after curing, obvious lumps and inconsistent apex on several nails, plus the very undesired acrylic pinky nail that the previous tech tried to sneak onto me till I questioned her - see my last San Ramon review for the salon name. I did have to pay for acrylic removal and a little more for the chrome finish, but at least Tracy was transparent about the cost prior to adding chrome onto my service. She explained that I would come away with a more satisfactory product by utilizing the dip powder in the desired color and add finishing as opposed to clear dip with gel finishing --which is what they customarily do at Walnut Creek salon I stopped going to (hence the paint chipping easily after a couple days lacking an appropriate top coat among other notable things). Michael did a descent job in the gentle and careful removal, nail shaping, and careful application and shaping of new dip product. I look forward to my next visit. read more

The only downside is that the lady working on me had a rude tone when talking about my grandmother walking in and out of the store (she has mild dementia and needed to get some air for a sec).

One of my favorite nail salons in Dublin because it's clean, well-run, offers all kinds of manicure and pedicure options, plus the customer service is great. Easy to make appointments and they do take their time with the services so plan on spending some time when you come here, it's not rushed like in some other places. There are always plenty of customers so making an appointment will help. I have gotten their signature pedicure twice and enjoyed the leg and foot scrub, massage and the wrap. Both dip powder nails and regular nail paint have come out pretty well. As with any other place, make sure you communicate and repeat the design you want or you may end up with slightly different outcome. It is one of the best in our area, you won't be disappointed if you try them out. read more

I was really looking forward to getting a pedicure at this salon. It comes highly recommended from friends and fellow Yelp-res. I made a reservation for 2pm on a Sunday. When I arrived I was asked to wait, I ended up waiting for nearly 20 minutes. I completely understand that things happen, but the reason I make an appointment is to be sure that I don't have to wait. I got the delux pedicure and my eyebrows waxed. I was shown the price for the deluxe pedicure, $60 - and I was happy to pay it. I paid $117 for my pedicure and eyebrows - and tip. When I asked why it came out to so much, she said you got gel. Here's the thing I never asked for gel. I was charged for the deluxe and gel. I assumed that the deluxe came with the gel option. I recognize that I should have asked first, but to just apply gel with no communication?? The eyebrow wax was mediocre at best. Overall, this nail salon is overpriced, are terrible at communicating and not really worth the money. read more

If I could give zero I would. Horrible quality and service. Lady did not ask me what I wanted for my pedicure and gave me long square when I wanted short and everything cut. When I pointed out she became visibly annoyed and continued with my manicure. She left so many skin gland and all the nails were different length and shape. Another lady had to take over and still made them all different. They cut all the length I had. They didn't clean cuticle which looks horrific. I stopped there and didn't get any nail polish. I paid eighty bucks for what? I never wrote a bad review but this just ruined my day. Don't go there, it's not worth it. Waste of money and time. read more

TEA Nails - Gel nails. - Nail Salons Near Me - Dublin, California

I'm so torn on a 3 and a 4 star. I've been here a couple of times and overall I've had satisfactory experience with the overall service. However the issue I have is they are very pushy always trying to upsell you even when you say no. I feel it every time but then watch them do this to every customer that walks through the door. Usually takes about 5 no thank you's to get the job done. The other part is they're pricing - maybe I'm used to South Bay pricing but it's pretty much $90-100 walking out with acrylics with clear coat and basic regular polish pedicure. read more

TEA Nails - Color 174 - Nail Salons Near Me - Dublin, California

After my third time visiting the salon in less than a month. I can honestly review this nail shop and say - don't go! My first interaction went okay while I was in the nail shop. They did my manicure with dip powder with tips perfectly, my pedicure was beautiful. Then not even 2 days later. My gel on my toes were chipping! That's never happened to me as I can leave gel on without any problems for over 2 months on my toes. I went back and told them it chipped and they fixed it. Then - not even 6 days later my dip powder was lifting off my fingers. 4 nails were lifted and the rest I popped off. The nails didn't even last me a week! I went the second time a week later to do a full set again- another 60$, this time the lady tried upcharging me for getting "longer nails" I told her I got the same length as last time for only 60$. Then she matched it - it's crazy how I have to fight for them to keep the price the same. Those nails also only lasted me 10 days. 2 weeks later my gel on my toes are all chipped off. Here I am today on my third day getting my nails and toes re done, this time the guy was giving me so much attitude all because I asked how much longer "I have to be at a birthday party". He was laughing in my face the entire time and I didn't understand why, he was rudely and aggressively doing my nails. My pedicure that he charged 50$ and spend less than 5 minutes halfssing the gel on my toe nails with improper shaping ( one is round and one is square) and the color is uneven! Then I go to pay for my nails and notice my nail has a indentation in it!! (I attached a photo) What??? It was too late at this point to ask him to fix it and he ran to the back as soon as we were done. He came and took my money from me and charged me 115 for a mani and pedi. Again they uncharged me 5-10$ without my knowledge and said it's because my nails are long.. which is weird because these are shorter than the first time!!! I didn't say anything other than "okay thank you" payed and walked out. I really hope my nails don't fall off in another 5 days. These are suppose to last 1 month (he says). Save your money and go to an at home based nail tech. read more
