Well. It was an interesting experience. I got a regular polish manicure/pedicure for $55. I tipped $15. The massage chair had a pretty low intensity that you couldn't make stronger in the chair I was in (I had the blue one. There were 3 different types of chairs). The foot bath was ice cold. Like I-couldn't-put-my-feet-in-cold. When someone became available, I asked if I got my could get hotter water. They said oh absolutely. Partly drained/added hot water... I got cool water. I asked for it to be a bit hotter, and they were surprised, but repeated the process, and now I'm at lukewarm. Someone asked if it was hot now, and I said not really. My manicurist felt it and said "oh that's hot!" I touched it with my hand, thinking maybe I had acclimated as the temp changed. Nope. It was barely warm. I repeated that I would like it hotter. She did, but then went off in what I assume is her native tongue, indicating she wasn't happy. I wasn't really either since it was still in the warm, not hot category, but I just left it. The manicurist never asked which pedicure I wanted, and she gave me the basic. Which was pretty basic, but fine. I actually wanted the Chamomile, which was more expensive, but by the time I realized she wasn't going to ask, we were past the point of changing it. Over the course of the visit, the manicurist asked me 4 times if I wanted glitter. I said, "No thanks!" Each time, but by the time we got to the manicure, she just said,"we'll do glitter on this nail. " I had to firmly say "no I don't want that." My hands went into the UV light things between coats. I sat under the light/ fan bench for 10 minutes. My nails looked like this after I put my shoes on. It was a pretty underwhelming-borderline-terrible service. I tipped a bit more than I normal do because maybe she was having a bad day.

I went to Sassy Nails for a pedicure and full set of acrylic nails. The pedicure was rushed with little in the way of benefits for the “deluxe” option - 2 min hot stone massage on the calf. I had higher hopes for the full set but again, it was rushed. I showed the man the design I wanted - a matte base with glossy slanted French tips - and he said he could do it. Turns out he couldn’t. The nails were crooked, bulky and uneven. He attempted to fix but did not succeed. The owner took over short after an exchange between the two of them but it was so uncomfortable because of the tone of his voice and the arguing back/forth. Very unprofessional. I know the owner tried to make it right but anything short of taking all the nails off and redoing the full set wouldn’t fix the issues. The end result was mediocre. The nails are still slanted, bulky in areas. The glossy part on the mail is actually navy blue, not black (I didn’t notice until it was too late). I asked for coffin but ended up with mostly square shape. My finger started bleeding after intense filing and left my fingers sore for days. I went during a time they weren’t busy and showed the design I wanted. If it couldn’t be done I would have preferred them to say that vs wasting my time and money. I won’t be back.

I hate to be this person, but I have been here 4 times, and unfortunately, all 4 times has ended in disappointment. first and second time my polish was lumpy and the shape was sloppy. The third time, I brought a friend with me, and they refused to paint simple snakes on my friends nails, and simply used a sticker on mine, and the edges of said sticker curled up and caught on things. this last time, I have gotten them done, loved how they looked leaving the store, but once I got home, about an hour later, one broke..... not cool, but also all the gel topcoat is peeling off. its been 24 hours, and they look terrible now..... I paid $90 for this after I specifically told them that I had a budget of $82. I went in looking to get just my nails done, but after much pestering I caved and got a pedi too, after I had already told them I just wanted my nails done. I have really bad social anxiety and tried to say no. I told them several times that all I had on me was $82 cash and that was my budget, and they ignored it, having me pay $90 for services I didn't even want. I still left a $10 tip so they wouldn't hate me if that helps you understand how bad my anxiety is.

Ruined my nails. First, the female part owner wouldn't let me choose the color I wanted...she said it didn't go with my skin. Next, I had an acrylic set by male part owner, and soon enough my nail became infected, the others easily chipped after. I went back and asked them to fix it, they removed the set and gave me a gel manicure when I asked for natural, probably to try and keep the nail intact. They even charged me for it! After this, I went to another place to have the gel removed, and paid for that service. Sassy nails spa owners are unprofessional, they ask for cash tips only! Wonder why...the place smells like chemicals, enough to give you a headache. They didn't perform well for me or handle my situation well at all. Pay attention to the pic with the pointy nail and imagine how it felt for the top piece to come off, and unable to do anything else with my nails. I had this service done for the first time in my entire life for a very important day, and it ended up in greediness, trying to hide tracks, and a poor quality of customer service. I still can't go in there to ask for my money back, because of the negative experience.

When I was there the other day and choked on green beans that were not snipped off and had stems still on them. Photos Show what I'm talking about. I told staff and the owner I'm guessing and they did nothing to fix this Serious Choking Hazard especially for kids. Also one staff member filling the buffet took Mac and Cheese that was all dry and crusty and just put hot water over it and stirred it up leaving it for customers to eat. I couldn't believe staff did not care that I choked or someone else could. Also it seems after 3 plates of food they bring your bill and say they need the table when there is many free tables. I don't think these incidents were handled properly. Nor the food being a Hazard and Improperly handled is Professional. All I can say is watch what you eat and fill your plates. I asked a Lawyer he said they cannot force you to leave if your still eating even if just a little at a time. Not that you can sit there for 4 hours. I gave a five dollar tip to the Waitress would have gave more if they took care of the Green Bean Issue. The issue was those hard stick like ends of the beans.

I got a gel manicure! It came out beautifully! She did exactly what I wanted and more. Originally $35. Then additional $5 for 2 designs. Additional $10 for designs on the whole hand. Over all $55. At first I thought they were trying to play me. But the owner kindly explained her prices to me. I am very happy with my nails and will definitely come back again!
