Venice Nails And Spa

If there was a negative one star that would definitely be my choice! My pedi was done by Coy who did a fantastic job! The problem was that the tyrant of a manager constantly interrupted his work so that he could do another customer’s nails. They replaced Coy with an older gentleman named Tim who happened to smear my polish and was mad that I made him fix it. I told him I wanted a shellac polish change, he apparently didn’t hear me and began doing a full mani. When I told him again he was upset and started buffing my nails in a rough manner. The last thing I want is an angry nail tech doing a job that costs me nearly 30 dollars. He calls the manager and rather than him try to fix the situation he begins to argue with me and tell me he did me a favor by fitting me in. The last time I checked, this establishment states walk-​ins welcome! I’ve been coming here for a while and it is ridiculous that I would be made to feel this way. Getting your nails done should be a relaxing and enjoying experience. I pay good money and if I’m not satisfied with the treatment the manager should be doing anything in his power to make things right. Needless to say… another one bites the dust. Slowly but surely this business will end up losing its customers with this kind of management.

It really all depends on who does your nails. There are only a few that do a good job.

This place is always packed to capacity when I try to go after work. After being told several times that there is an hour wait, I finally got smart and schedule an appointment. I have always been able to call around noon that day and get an appointment for that evening. Danny has been doing my nexgen manicure for a few months now, and he is fantastic. He pays attention to detail and my manicures last for weeks because of his careful work. I have never laughed so much getting my nails done until I sat close to Remy as she worked on her client’s nails next to me. To make a great manicure even better, they always have plenty of free margaritas for you.

I have been going here for 6 months and always recommend them to friends and family. The service is fast and it is still relaxing. The complimentary drinks will definitely get anyone business. They are the cleanest salon that I have seen and enjoy taking friends there.

This was such a great experience! My mother and I got pedicures and soaked up every moment of them. I had previously had some truly bad pedicures at other salons and hadn’t gone into one in about two years, but this place completely changed my mind about them and I’m sure I’ll become a regular over the coming months.
I had Frank, who gave a fabulous massage and put a great deal of care into every step of the process. I had picked some faulty polish and when it wasn’t going on right, he asked if he could pick out another one for me and repainted them. Wow! I was pretty impressed with how much he cared. My mother had Jeff and he was really great as well.
The drinks were complimentary, cool and delicious. Not only did the front desk girl ask us if we needed refills, but so did each of our professionals, and even the guy who was working next to us. They were fun to chat with and truly did a beautiful job.
Thank you to you both for making our experience so fantastic! I’ll definitely be coming back.
As a tip though, they seem to be packed pretty regularly. I would make an appointment if you can. You are able to sign in and come back though. That allowed us not to have to wait at all. You can just do a little shopping and pop back in around the time they say! :)

Venice has great service as long as you book an appointment in advance or show up at a time they’re not busy. The staff is friendly and the drinks are free! One of my favorite places to indulge a little!

Let me start by saying I am a perfectionist when it comes to polished nails and toenails. I absolutely cannot stand bumpy lumpy polish or any imperfections, especially when I’m paying a «professional». So that said I came in after a friend recommended the place to me. I have a nail place I regular that does exactly what I want, but it’s across town and I live pretty close to this place. So I came initially for a pedicure Bc those are less easy to mess up, guy did a decent job, the massage could’ve been better but ehh whatever… The next day I came in for a shellac polish on my nails… I had natural nails except for one that broke, that one had an artificial nail on it. The nail tech I had was very nice and we had a nice conversation, not a fake where are you from convo but a funny cool conversation about how she wants to be a dr and move to California,(should’ve known then she had absolutely no interest in doing nails) that’s what the 2 stars are for actually! I had soaked my polish off the night before all except the acrylic nail Bc those are done differently… so I tell her the polished nail is acrylic due to my natural nail breaking … she says she doesn’t know how to do acrylic and goes to tell her manager… comes back and says that one will be done last by someone else, fine cool… so we start the manicure, go over the shape I want and everything is good until I see my nails are pretty much all a different shape… some are round some are squares off… at that point I have a sinking feeling in my stomach Bc I didn’t want to be rude, but I knew I would be sorry … so I talk myself into believing it wasn’t too bad and I’m just too picky, so then after that’s done she brings the polish out and takes my hand, at that point I ask if I should wash my hands and she says no Bc she sprayed them and they’re fine… In my years of experience I have always washed my hands after the manicure before polishing to remove any fuzzies on your nails and make sure your nails are fresh and clean for polish. At that point a lady next to me chimes in saying she’s never washed her hands and her polish is never lumpy… again I said I’ve never not washed my hands… so I proceed to let her polish my nails after all she’s the «professional» not me… End result is lumpy uneven polish, which prob doesn’t look bad to the naked eyes but for me looking at it daily has driven me insane… I’ve had it a whole 3 days and one chipped… went in to have it fixed and the nail tech who «fixed» it reshaped my nail along with it… this place just doesn’t hire people who have a passion for nails, they hire anyone willing to work and some have no clue what the heck they’re even doing… bottom line the bar and fancy interior isn’t enough to keep me coming here… Their prices are higher than most. I definitely won’t be returning and I felt the urgency to let anyone else who’s thinking about coming here know what to expect…

This place was amazing!!! I used to dread getting my nails done because I have sensitive skin and my nails are paper thin but Tina was very sweet and gentle! It is pricy but very work it! Also doesn’t take longer than an hour for a new set and polish

I used to be a more regular patron of Venice Nails. Drinks while you get a mani/​pedi? Yes, please. However, my past few experiences have not been stellar and this last one in particular has convinced me that I’m going to try another salon.
Don provided pedicure/​manicure services to me this past trip. First off, he kept commenting on how bad the condition of my feet where. Duh — this is why I’m here. To get it taken care of. He kept commenting and commenting about my dead skin. If you’re going to embarrass your clientele like that, then I’d rather go somewhere else.
Then when he was trimming up the skin around my big toe, he literally took a HUGE chunk of skin out of it. Minor bleeding, but I find myself 3 days later with a THROBBING toe. I’ve had to put triple anti-​biotic medicine on it and am still not sure if it’s healing. This guy was absolutely terrible.
I’ve been less then impressed with their general service over the course of my last few visits and this was the nail in the coffin for me. With so many options in the Alamo Ranch area, this is no longer my go to.

I’m very impressed
.my first time here, and Manager was super nice and accommodating, and Martin did an outstanding job with my pedicure, especially the massage part. I am a new mommy and haven’t had time for anything, so this was an awesome treat! I’ll definitely be back!

Hanna took good care on my nail. I got gel, services was great, clean SPA, and complimentary drinks. Price is decent I will be back.

I have been a loyal customer of this salon since the first day they opened but this place has gone WAY down hill! The people are very rude now, hurried and do less than quality work. I called earlier today to ask how long the wait was and they said an hour, i asked if they could put me on the books and i would be there in an hour. They told me i needed to come in and fill out a paper first and then i could come back home and go back in an hour??? Stupid, right? I guess I will be looking for a new place.

I just went to Venus Nails & Spa for the first time yesterday (April 2) wanting to love it — free drinks! — but unfortunately, I can’t. I received a poor quality experience and substandard work on my nails.
I agree with previous reviewers that say that the parking situation is rough and it’s extremely unorganized inside. They didn’t read the form that they asked me to fill out, different people kept asking me the same questions and then without saying a word, the manicurist and pedicurist went to a chair assuming that I knew to follow them, which I didn’t because I was caught in the quagmire at the front. Then, I had to pay for the entire thing 10 minutes into my mani/​pedi because the manicurist Kathy wanted to go on to another customer ASAP. I felt extremely rushed throughout the process, not very relaxing.
But if the quality of the manicure/​pedicure had been better, I might be willing to overlook some of the disorganization, but as you can see from the attached photos, less than 24 hours after receiving my manicure, the polish is pealing from several different fingers. I very rarely get the chance to get mani/​pedis and to spend my money on sloppy, poor work and a rather hurried experience is so disappointing. I would rather have my drink at home and get good service from my salon. So bummed.

Gosh, where to begin? I called a week in advance to book an appointment for manicures for myself and my 3 bridesmaids for Saturday the 12^th of March. I had heard wonderful things, and felt like Venice was the ideal place to unwind and pamper myself and my girls (there’s a bar in the middle of the salon!)
To start, the parking situation is abhorrent. Once inside, the salon is massive, but EXTREMELY loud, crowded, and unorganized (I filled out the little form they gave me and they still asked questions about what I wanted. Hello, read the form.) My manicurist, Danny, was extremely rude, unprofessional, and sloppy. On the form that he obviously didn’t read, I asked for a complimentary mimosa which he didn’t even bother to give me. I can’t even begin to describe how rude he was. It was such a terrible experience for myself and my maids, and I tell everyone about it. Avoid at all costs, future brides. You deserve to be relaxed and pampered, not condescended and stressed!

Went to this salon for the first time today. I would have given 5 stars but I was surprised at the cost at the end of the appointment. Prices weren’t outrageous but still a little surprising. Overall I was very pleased with the service! Louis did my pedicure and was very thorough. He recommended a design for my toes and took his time making sure they looked perfect! Tina did my nails and this was what really impressed me. The NexGen nails were absolutely awesome! They look so nice and not fake at all. They were very knowledgable and kind throughout the appointment. I would definitely recommend this place!

This at one point was my go to spot. Drinks used to be brought while you waited, the nail techs were usually very friendly and took time on their work, but the last few times I have gone I’ve left very disappointed.
First bad experience was a rushed job. The very next day my gel polish chipped. I had to go back and ask the manager to have them fixed. (I hate asking for this — but come on, one day is a bit ridiculous).
Second, and probably my last time I will patron this place, the nail tech refused to use a base coat with my shellac manicure. I literally had to force him by saying I didn’t care how thick they were just put that base coat on it. I noticed that a few techs had been skipping this step and I assume this is why the shellac was chipping so quick.
It’s bitter sweet because I want to love this place because there just aren’t many good salons in town, but there are a few rotten eggs in the bunch. Maybe once they get weeded out. Hmmm

I’ve been here twice, once for a basic pedi a few months ago and for a shellac mani today.
The drinks are of course nice. I had a mimosa today, it was quite good. Last time I had a frozen margarita… Or two… Mmmmm.
Both of my nail techs didn’t engage me in much conversation, which is just fine for me. I don’t mind much one way or another, but I usually feed off of them. My friend was worked on by a young man who seemed A LOT friendlier!
Tina did my shellac mani and she did a wonderful job from what I can tell so far. There are soooo many color options, I almost got overwhelmed choosing!
Though it was awhile back, I want to say my pedicure didn’t last extremely long before chipping. My friend had the same happen with hers but she ended up going back in and they were able to fix it with no charge!
My shellac mani was 35 dollars today. I had no wait last time but waited about 15 minutes today.
I do like Venice and it’s close to my work, but I do want to try some other places that are a bit closer to home. I know that I can go to Venice in a pinch though! And get some yummy drinks.

My first visit was today, and I had an excellent experience! This will be my go to nail salon from now on. I got a pedicure and eyebrow wax. The pedicure was done well and included one of the best foot massages I’ve ever had (I did get the most expensive pedicure; worth every penny). Eyebrow wax was also well done and nearly pain free. And, my favorite part, was the bar and bartender who walked around to customers with a drink menu so we could choose our complimentary drink from the comfort of the massage chair.
I’m not surprised the place was packed, but I was still seated within 10 minutes. All around great customer service. I’ll definitely be back soon!

This place seems to be always busy. I’ve only been once on a Thursday afternoon but still had to wait about 20ish minutes to get a chair and even when I left they still had people waiting to get in. Overall this is probably one of my most favorite spots. The technician that did my nails was really nice and tried hard to keep me comfy even though I hate my feet being messed with. They have a bar with mixed beverages and wines that are complimentary (at least the first one I had was).
Everyone was super nice and the place is very, very clean. They had a lot of different options for pedicures and manicures ranging from normals to weird things that I don’t even know what it meant on the menu. xD
They had a wide array of colors to pick from as well.
I will be returning.

I’m no push over when it comes to pedicures. This place’s legitimately worth all five stars. It was also worth the $ 60 for my manicure and deluxe green tea pedicure. This likely includes the price of the unlimited complimentary beverages.
I absolutely loved this place from the moment we walked in. It is huge inside, likely 20 pedicure chairs at least and 10 nail stations. Maybe more. The services menu is at the front desk where you take a pen and on the provided paper just mark down anything you want. There’s also a complimentary beverage section where you can order: wine, Mimosas, frozen drinks, coffee, tea, water etc. It was just delightful. We were immediately sat in chairs, brought beverages and only waited a few minutes before being seen to. Nina & Tammy did our mani/​pedis. They were sweet and my nails look great. There was a scrub, a paraffin dip, a masque, hot towels. The works. Worth every cent.
I will be making this a monthly treat it was so amazing.
