It’s my 4th time coming to this salon and every time I come i’m blown away at the service. It’s amazing. I’ve literally never had a better pedicure/manicure. i nearly fell asleep because of how relaxed I was during my pedicure massage. Even if i’m getting designs or just a simple color on my nails everything is done…

Lee does amazing design work! Brought her another photo and she recreated the beautiful look! I always love my nails and get many compliments on them. I keep coming back because she does such beautiful art/designs. I keep going back for a combo of jelly polish with a layer of cat eye under Lee suggested that adds an amazing dimension.

The Kitchen Nail Bar in MTV is my new go to place. Had the Festive Floral Rose Pedicure for the holidays and it was worth it. The salon was clean and very well maintained. Michael was very thorough and had a gentle touch. Very relaxing and great atmosphere.

Kimmy is the most talented and artistic nail tech I’ve ever had. Before coming to her I was always leaving nail salons feeling unheard and disappointed. She really listens to what I want, explains to me how things work and what is realistic and is so talented at the work she does! I leave my apts content and beaming each time!

I had the best experience. The technician were very diligent, skilled, and great customer services. I used to go to Susan Nails in Redwood City but now it’s under a new administration and they are careless, which they cut my fingers with their instruments and asked me and I scared? That is why I don’t go there.…

Came to get some patches of gel removed that a previous salon missed. Nail artist didn’t remove those patches, scratched up my nails themselves, and kept wanting to further file my nails to reshape them. Very hard to communicate. Charged $15 for 10 minutes of this.
