Zen Nail Bar - Plain Gel Mani - Waxing Near Me - Riverside, California

I have never gotten a worse set of nails in my life. I asked for black nails with daisies which should be simple enough. The pictures speak for themselves. The flowers are horribly done. My pedicure was great but when I went to the front and showed the nice man working the front he literally said "OH NO" when I showed him cause that's how BAD they are. He took $11 off my total ($2 of which was just the credit card fee). No one offered to redo them or fix them and I honestly should've refused to pay for them. I ended up having to go to another salon immediately after to get them fixed. The man up front was sweet and said that was all he could do or else he would get in trouble. I should not have been charged for this. Absolutely horrible experience. Edit: I do want to clarify and apologize that they did offer to fix it on another day that where my schedule was full and I forgot about this. But to still make me pay and only discount $10 when they left me looking like that is not acceptable to me. I would've gladly paid for my pedicure and the cost of my nails and just had the cost of the design discounted but instead I was given $10 off of $100 nails. I should've only been charged the $65 for the gel x. It's not my fault I had a busy schedule but it is their fault that my nails ended up looking the way they did and that's what's the most disappointing part. People have busy schedules and shouldn't have to keep things open or move things around because of a nail salons very clear mistakes. read more

Well well well, I'm not surprised. See the dark spot? Now I have a "greenie" due to moisture being trapped underneath my nail, 8 DAYS AFTER VISITING THIS SALON & POSTING MY REVIEW! Thanks to the lazy & careless workers who don't provide the proper care & nail prep to their customers. Now I'm left with a bacteria that can lead to a fungus. To say that I'm upset is an understatement, I'm FURIOUS about this. I honestly feel that it's only right to report this salon to state board. I can't believe I paid $80 for this! read more

I get the signature pedicure. It's one of the higher pedicures. I get NO polish. I want them to be buffed shiny and you want to cgarge me an additional 10 dollars. That is ridiculous. No polish to remove or apply but charge me 10 dollars to use a different buffer!!! read more

I usually come here for pedicure and nails! I always love my sets and they have such a great variety! I do come a little late, so i feel the vibe can be off when the nail techs are tired and wanna go home, but i appreciate them pushing through and giving me what i ask for!! read more

We went in for pedicures without an appointment. They had a pretty packed house but we only waited about 5 minutes, if that, to get seated for our service. My husband stopped getting pedis for a while because other places would always use the scrub on his legs and he didn't like how it would pull his leg hair (fair enough, haha). He decided to join me once we got there and the lady was very sweet with him. We were pleasantly surprised that she didn't pull out the scrub on him. The gentleman who did mine was also very nice and they didn't skimp on the leg and foot massage. It was so relaxing that I almost fell asleep during mine! The place is clean, the decor is modern and tastefully done, and the staff is all very friendly. They offer a drink during your service which is something I always appreciate but can't always find at other local nail salons. Great place all around! read more

I honestly feel this salon is overpriced for what they offer. I got a regular French tip pedicure and a French tip full set, and my total came out to $150. For that price, I expected a little more, but I didn't feel like there was anything particularly different or special about the work compared to other salons. I also noticed that one of my nails has a noticeable lump/uneven area, which I've included a picture of. For the price I paid, I expected the finished nails to be much cleaner and more polished. Overall, I just don't understand the hype or see anything that would make me want to come back. For $150, I personally expected more and don't feel the experience was worth the price. read more

I absolutely LOVED my total experience today!! Thank you to staff that greeted me warmly in and out, even as a walk in! Treated me as if I was a guest in their home and the service was over the top AMAZING, thank you Sarah !! THE BEST place in Riverside, hands down!!! read more

This place was amazing ! They provided A1 service , my nails were left amazing. I would definitely come back !

My tech was detailed and ensured my nails were just how I wanted them. The vibe was calm and relaxing.

I used to go here all the time but the last three visits the nail tech was rushed and my nails were so bad they didn't dry and peeled up within a day. Same for my pedicure. I went back and they re-did the nails that peeled, admitted that the nails weren't fully cured. But here we are a few days later and they're peeling again. This has happened a few times. I wouldn't recommend this spot until they solve this issue. They don't know how to lay hard gel. Update for their reply: it wasn't just my thumb. At first it was my index finger and a few of my toes. This is a skill issue, not a product issue. I have been to other salons in the area and this is the only salon that this has happened. I'm not trying to be combative here, but your response sounds more like an excuse. I just want people to be aware because we spent $177 dollars on services and tips. Now I have to spend even more to get this properly re-done elsewhere. read more

Love the service, everyone I've gotten takes their time and checks their work and is very friendly.

Really disappointed in today's visit, this review is specifically for the front desk lady not handling the issue appropriately, and the nail technician Hana (Hannah) giving different pricing then refusing to do my nails. Read more for details... Called in ahead of time for nail soak-off and new builder gel set. Upon arrival got sat right away with Hana who cut down my nails and started the soak-off. We chat for a bit and before she's done with soak off, she writes down the pricing and asks me to confirm the total of $90. Seems high to me so I say so and ask for breakdown... we continue on, and a few minutes later once she's done with soak-off the front desk lady comes and tell me Hana can no longer due my nails and wants to re-assign me to Helen (whom I previously said I didn't want). And then tells me nobody else is available. I refuse because hello - you just took off my nails and I have an engagement later. After a couple of minutes, she re-assigns another tech but after sitting down with me she says she's not experienced with gel builder on a tip. Again, the front desk lady tells me she doesn't have anybody available but Helen and proceeds to tell me it's my problem since I don't want Helen to do my nails and she doesn't have anyone else. I let her know I wish she should have mentioned this before removing my nails as I could have easily gotten a fill or gone elsewhere... Frustrated, she assigns Mimi to me, who proceeds to do my nails and does an acceptable job. Once done, I go up front to pay and was quoted $75 (which is in line with what I usually pay). When I ask about the pricing discrepancy and wanting to clear up the issue with the 1st technician, she was hesitant and simply didn't want to address the issue. Left dumbfounded, I explained that I just didn't want to end up in a similar issue next time and wanted confidence that i wouldn't get the weird pricing or runaround leaving me without services. She obviously doesn't like dealing with conflict and just shut down... I don't like conflict myself but I truly wanted to understand what exactly was the issue. Anyways, paid for Mimi's service plus a good tip, and left feeling Pretty frustrating after the experience, after having had a good experience and being a loyal longtime client. I'm really hoping the gentleman usually in the front comes back the next time... otherwise, it might be time for a new salon. Will post a follow-up review after my next visit. read more

Zen Nail Bar - French tip with iridescent Mickey Mouse ballon accent design. Super cute for upcoming trip for daughter's birthday. - Waxing Near Me - Riverside, California

Zen nail bar teach your techs how to shape nails!! all I wanted was a nice regular manicure for my cuticles to be cleaned up and my nails to be nicely shaped, but your lady did not deliver. I had to show her how to remove the cuticles she didn't even push them back and she barely shaped my nails with her raggedy, cheap nail filer. Can a girl just get a nice regular manicure these days.? read more

I had made an appointment the day prior via yelp. I got to the salon about 15 minutes early, but didn't get seated until 20 minutes after appointment time. A customer had walked in after me for a walk in,and got seated before me. (I was trying my patience) I got seated shortly after. Im giving 4 stars because 1 they made me wait, (they were nice about it) but also they don't offer me beverages, when they had asked everyone else in the salon. The service was quick. Considering I had a gel X removal. Pricing and the quality is there. I would definitely come back. read more

The best nail shop in the Inland Empire. The staff is always so kind and friendly. Every time I go I'm greeted with a smile. I have gotten my manicures/pedicures by different nail techs they all have been very professional and do great work. My pedicures are usually done by Laura she is the best. I have also had Yumi do my pedicures she is great. For my manicures Ivy does a fantastic job. The owner Tom is so humble and takes pride in what he does. Highly recommend I will forever be a Zen Nail Bar customer. read more

first time customer experience..I made an appointment for 2 gel x full sets at 10 AM my daughter and I didn't get service until almost 10:30am they had us sitting at very dirty desks with pieces of trash on them. We were told sorry for the wait and that they wanted to make sure they had the right person to do the designs me and my daughter wanted. I showed in inspiration pic super easy white French tip with black stars. When Jessica started doing the black star design, I was kind of concerned on how they were turning out, but I wanted to wait and give her the benefit of the doubt for maybe a second coat would clean up the stars that she was doing.. when she finished with one coat she said that she was gonna add the jewels topcoat and that we'd be done, I was shocked because the stars were so poorly done and I told her that I really didn't like them. She got upset with me asking why didn't I tell her before she finished.. in my head, I wanted to tell her I didn't think that they would be done so poorly but I just nicely told her I just don't like the way they look on my nails. Of course I was given attitude. Which is unfortunate because a lot of women don't speak up in fear of getting attitude or worse service like I did. My daughter's nails came out really nice and her nail tech did a great job and was nice to her which I'm grateful for. once my service was done and I talked to the guy at the front desk to pay and told him about the issue I had. I was told that he would let the owner know.. read more

They do not honor their appointments. This is the third time they did this, I make my appointments at at least three weeks in advance, I also make a call to remind them all three times. They confirm my appointment I get there, my appointment has been given to a walk-in. They have no respect towards peoples schedules. read more

08/24/26 was my first visit so I'm not sure about the previous management, but my experience was superb! The atmosphere, customer service, super modern massage chairs, refreshments, temperature, products used and colors available! There was no missed aspect, and sooo affordable! walked out with a complete manicure and deluxe pedicure with gel on both for less than $90! that's unheard of at this point in time and with all the amenities!
