The nail technician, Peter, is amazing! He is respectful, courteous, and very kind. He knows his nails and he knows how to give great customer service. I have only been here a handful of times as I dont often get my nails done (nail biter) however, I left very happy and was not judged about my nail biting short nails at all. Peter is knowledgeable and talented. This salon can get busy at times, so I would recommend making an appointment. Peter was on time for my appointment and was even able to go above and beyond with customer service requests. Thank you very much for everything.

Pedi was amazing got the hot stone citrus pedi and my legs feel so much better. Acrylics are great and last a long time, Ive never had them break off.Only problem was asking multiple time for her to make nails more round and they barely brush the file against it. So I have to go home and fix them myself.

Yesterday was my first time coming here and I was impressed!! The staff are extremely polite, sweet and full of good conversation. The complimentary drinks were delicious. I love the results of my manicure and although there was a minor mistake, they were quick to resolve it and make it right. I plan to return again 💋🥂🤍🪄

Super cute place! The lady in the front was super sweet, if that’s Eva herself I wasn’t sure.My lady did cut 2 of my toes (you can kinda see it in my picture) when she was doing my cuticles which is my pet peeve, but her calf massage made it all worth it.They shape your toes very well and thorough on the calluses (which I very much needed lol)The price point was great too only $22 for a spa pedi! 😬

I love this place. They give you excellent service. I enjoy my pedicure with my mimosa. They very detailed in the services they offer. I never have a bad experience when I go there.

This place is by far way better than a Fashion Nails Spa that’s down the street I go to both places only because my daughter likes one of the ladies there how they do her nails but I like Eva nails and I can tell you I got my nails done yesterday really late Fashion Nails Spa because I got out of work and Eva nails was closed so I decided to just go to fashion nail & spa to get my nails done and I waited three hours as I sat there for three hours waiting being ignored multiple people kept coming in and they completely ignored me and attending to the multiple people that kept coming in after me. So as I finally got seen three hours later which I don’t know why I sat there for three hours only because I had nothing else to do and I said hey why not it’s late I’m already here whatever.she got nail polish all over my toes and wore the same gloves when she was doing one client and mine at the same time same gloves didn’t wash her hands ewwwwww when she was with the other client next to me she kept going back-and-forth using the same gloves. I will never ever ever go to fashion mail & Spa again so that’s why I’m writing this review because Eva nails is way better and I highly recommend it when I went here a few months ago to get my nails done they did an awesome job I don’t remember the lady‘s name but she did an amazing job. This place is clean and everyone that’s works here is very nice and polite.

Review №12

I used to come here for a full set and pedicure. This time a new employee asked me what color do I want and I told her I want white color, she started to put the white powder on my nail. I told her I don’t want the powder I just need the regular acrylic that I used to do here she apologized and said that she thought that I wanted a white powder and she removed the powder and started to put the gel right away. When I went to the front desk to pay they charged me $80 for acrylic and pedicure, I asked the employee if they changed the prices here because this is not the price that I always pay when I come here to get the same service, she said no the prices are still the same and I asked her to double check with the lady who did the acrylic she said that they charged me extra because of the white powder that she already put on (one nail) and removed!!! So literally I paid extra money for her mistake.

Its the best birthday gift from my daughters. I had not paid much attention to my feet and didnt know what to expect. It was so relaxing. They used these hot black rocks on my legs as well and thats hard to explain what that was doing. As if that was not enough they served me a glass of wine. It felt like I was the queen of sheba for the day. Thank you.

The cleanest salon my wife and I have been in. They are extremely kind, friendly with highly trained specialists. This is important for someone like me who is prone to Ingrown toenails. May and Amy took incredible care of us. Looking forward to returning in a month or less. Ask for a few complementary Mimosa‘s too.

I have been going for years. I dont go often enough to know everybody by name or vice versa but they never disappoint. At this point Ive taken my friends and family too. I have tried other salons, but this one is very warm and cozy and I just absolutely love it. Last time I got an acrylic set and its absolutely beautiful. I think Ill probably do that more often.

I have been to every single local nail salon in the spring valley area. EVERY SINGLE ONE! I was on a mission to find a great nail tech in my area, if I didn’t find one I was gonna venture to another town because I kept getting horrible acrylic sets. I’m not picky trust me. I had really bad nails or just a bad experience in general at other places. Today, let me tell you. I went to Ava nails and Lenny was my tech. She removed broken/ messed up acrylics I had put on a week ago. I fully expected this to be painful and take forever because that has always been my experience. Literally no discomfort what’s so ever and she was FAST! She was thorough and cared about the integrity of my real nail. She then put on a new set and did pink & white ombré and this is the first time EVER I did NOT burn under UV light after a removal. My nails are uniformly the same thickness and not lumpy. I don’t have a wacko crooked nail anywhere. These are things I just assumed came with the territory, as nail techs rush.Lenny did my removal and new set ombré pink & white gel with toe nail gel color change all in 1.5 hour’s!!!!! To be that fast and still put out such great quality tells me I have FINALLY found my go to nail tech!To add to it this location is very clean & friendly. They even serve mimosas!I also took my 12 year old last week for an eyebrow wax. (Her first time) and the lady I believe the owner or manager was so good with my daughter who was full of anxiety.

Tim does my nails and I love them every time! They don’t chip or lift and last me sometimes over a month! When I get my toes done they take their time and make sure they do the best job. Not to mention they’re nice and friendly. I’ve been coming here for years!

First time here and the service was AMAZING!! Arriving to the salon at our appt time and noticing that they were super busy, I thought for sure my niece and I were going to have a long wait and that our appt time did not matter. However I was blown away with how attentive and extremely friendly the lady at the checkin desk was with us. We were offered some drinks and were seen right away. We both had gel mani and pedis and my pedi was so relaxing. For sure coming back to this nail salon.

Review №58

Away from home and looking for a nail salon, I decided to try Eva. I was taken in right away which was nice for being a walk in. I asked for a fill. I was told 3 times that I needed to replace all the acrylic. But I just wanted a fill. This is where I start to feel uneasy. Dude proceeded with the fill although it seemed that he kept his eyes more on who was walking in to the salon/activity at the front desk than on my nails. Did I lose my customer value at this point? A customer was seated next to me. Her technician gave her a complimentary bottle of water and even provided her a pillow! I thought how sweet!. Then I noticed other customers were offered/given bottled water. A couple even had glasses of wine. I thought what a treat!. Perhaps because I didnt agree to the fuller service, I wasnt offered the same level of customer service. The salon was impressive from what i saw around me, but unfortunately my technician took the pampering warmth away. Wont be coming back.

I went to Eva Nails with my teenaged niece. We called and the Owner Sandy aka Eva kindly said to come in and there would be no wait. Being used to our usual place we werent sure if we could try a new one. We are so glad we did. The salon is so tranquil and calm. Sandy told us she has been doing nails for over 20 years. It was obvious by her careful technique and quick pace. We did one gel and one acrylic and both looked so gorgeous. The Salon has so many new colors, even chrome on nails which my niece chose and it was beyond cool. Try to post a pic. If you are near and want a great place to go, try this one. So glad we did. Also very reasonable!

Just got gel nails and my eyebrows done here-my nails look very nice and I’m super happy with them. However, the eyebrow wax was tragic. It was way hot, and I got left with a painful red strip mark. It’s been a couple days, and it’s still healing. I will never get my brows done here again...

This is my ultimate favorite nail place. They do a great job on my nails. I feel I definitely get my moneys worth every time.My nails always last and they always have fun new colors to choose from. Its a great place you can come and feel comfortable with friends or significant others including their complementary mimosas and wine. They have a great staff of talented women who all do great jobs and are very friendly. I use to have an issue with other shops on my nails lifting but ever since I started going to Evas Nails that hasnt even been an issue for me nor a worry. They are a great shop all around good quality and a nice clean and spacious environment. Amy and Sandy are my nail techs and I love them!. So if your looking for a good nail /spa day dont hesitate to go over to Evas Nails for pampering!

Love getting my pedicures done here. Great prices for full spa pedicures with hot stone massage and, who can turn down a glass of wine or champagne while being pampered? My toes always come out looking amazing and I feel relaxed afterwards. I never have problems with Polish chipping or coming off. Huge selection of colors as well.

Very disappointed... Had been a loyal customer for 2 yrs. I was never late always made my appointment. I was late 5 min and they they took someone else even after I called and spoke with Lina at front desk. Never again .will be taking my money and giving it to businesses that respect a phone call. Vivid nails next to Target ask for April..Alway had Lisa n Peter at Evas nails but no more after being treated like that. Guess customer service and loyalty doesnt mean a thing to Eva nails.. Its all about the money not the service.. Will not be spending my money here again..................To bad I had to give 1 star to leave a post here.. After how I was treated they dont deserve even 1/2....

Unhappy with the service,the girl who attended to me was friendly but did not do a good service, two days after I got my pedicure, the nail polish is cracker. And they don’t give the same service to all customers; Maybe because Im Hispanic, they didnt offer me a bottle of water. !!!! But other customers were offered water, orange juice and even wine. I will not return.

Review №79

Tina is the best for pedicures :-) Her plus a free mimosa just made my week!I like coming to this place whenever I can fit it in my busy schedule (with a baby) to relax and unwind! So yeah it took me 3 months to make it out here but well worth it! Other places are the same price for a spa pedicure which is $19.00 but this place is a better environment. I love to add on the $5 for an extra 5 minute massage, and I always add on the callous removal for another $5. This brings the total to $29.00 then after experiencing it you will definitely want to add at least a $4 tip!They also have scented packages like mint, citrus or lavender. The next up base price is $28 which includes a scent plus a 10 min massage but you still have to pay $5 extra for callous removal so I figured out a hack for the cheaper price lol. But Ive gotten the 3rd level pedicure here too before which is $35 and includes your choice of scent plus 10 minute massage plus callous removal. Its $6 more for the scent I guess. I think you might get hot stones too. It was great as well. The art designs are $5 which I opted out of.I like relaxing here with the massage chairs which are all in pretty good condition, not held together with duct tape like many other places! The salon is clean, well organized and maintained, which is more to say for many other chop shops.For my nails I go to a cheap place right by my house that has designs for only $1 per nail so I gotta go there but its nowhere close to a spa like experience so thats why I drive here for my pedicures! Ive been to a lot of girls here and theyre really great but Tina seems like she really cares about how you feel and her massages are slow and have nice variety and are not too hard, not too soft! I need to request her next time. Enjoy!!!

I went to Eva nails because I couldnt go to my regular nail salon. I did a fill and gel polish, but she didnt keep my nails under the light between coats for very long. Later that day, my thumb nail started to peel. I went back the next day and they redid it, but once again, the nail was only under the light for ~30 seconds each layer. The polish has completely peeled off and another nail has started too as well. Ive never had that happen. Very disappointed. Pedicure was great.

The ladies and gentleman were extremely kind when putting on my acrylic tips and painting my nails. They occasionally made small talk, but they didnt chatter your ears off, which I like.
