Venetian Nail Spa

This place gets 0 stars from me. By far the absolute worst experience I’ve ever had and I paid for it! I have my own salon but chose to go to this one while shopping in the area. I encountered the rudest nail tech in history who happens to be picked in someone else’s review. I was overcharged for a TERRIBLE job. Apparently I annoyed Andrew by calling to complain. It took him an entire day to «consult» with the owners to offer me a redo of my toes and get this no refund a gift card to come back and receive more of their awful service. Save your money! Go to your own salon or just do your nails yourself before giving this unappreciative shop a dime!

If you want an unappreciative, unwilling, ill tempered manicurist frequent this location. I was ready with two images for my christmas manicure since I was a new customer. One depicted shape and length the other my gel color. The shape and length differed for each nail and a week later my gel peeled on one finger. When I mentioned the shape was off and asked him to smooth out the points, his demeanor changed. He rolled his eyes, huffed the rest of the manicure and would throw my hands back at me. They could skip the 4oz water and concentrate more on their service.

I went to the Venetian Spa yesterday afternoon. Even to this nail spa is higher in price I wanted to give it a try. The receptionist was extremely friendly and I thought: Oh nice! However it chanced when I saw my nail designer. Rude rude rude! He — name tag said Michael.- didn’t even say hello. He sat down in front of me and didn’t even look at me. The only question he asked was: How long? (Nails) What shape? He did a decent job but when I was done he motioned toward an area: «Go and wash your hands». When I asked where the sink was, he looked at me with a disbelieving look and said: «In the back?» After putting the nail polish on he motioned to follow him. Then he sat me down in the area to dry the nails. He just walked away. I meant to ask: Could you please hand me my bags? They where still sitting at the station. But nope!!! Instead he sat down his next client at the same station. I had to approach another staff member to bring me my shopping bags. I can’t believe that I even tipped this rude dude. I only did it so that he wouldn’t mess up my nail polish. I will never go back there again. I don’t expect a chatty designer but politeness would be much appreciated. I cannot recommend this nail spa at all!!!

I got a mani pedi this weekend and the older woman who did my toes was very rough. I have abrasions on 4 toes. I flinched during the pedi bc she filed my skin off, and she called me a scaredy cat. I had a man do my gel mani and he was fantastic. I am giving them 3 stars because of him, otherwise I would have given them 1 star.

Want to feel like you’re being pushed through an assembly line in a crowded nail salon?! Come here! the service is quick and not thorough for what you get. Don’t expect to get your money’s worth. The only nice thing is the décor. That doesn’t even matter due to the fact that it is so crowded with workers and people who give it that assembly line feeling. Dont pay extra for the more deluxe treatment because it’s the same as the basic. You’ll get that impersonal Asian treatment times twenty here. Way too overrated.

Visited 9÷4÷2015 over lunch to get a quick pedi/​mani. After waiting 10 minutes to get mani I waited 40 more minutes for someone to work on me. The old lady I got wanted to do somewhere else so I walked out the door with a wasted lunch hour. Don’t try to visit this place over lunch ever!

We had a group of friends (5) go to Venetian for mani-​pedicures. For the two ladies who had chosen regular manicures, rather than gel, their polish didn’t last more than an hour. No one showed them where and how to dry their nails. No one took the time to ensure their clients were satisfied with results. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone. They are very overpriced for the services they provide. Stick to a smaller facility where they appreciate your business.

This wonderful place is so relaxing and spacious. Today I came in for some fun acrylics. I love that the place is clean and the nail techs are very friendly. Keep in mind that this place gets very busy. It’s better to come in on a weekday if you mind the wait. Appointments are always the best way to go if your in a rush. They really take their time to perfect your nails which I appreciate. You don’t have to dress fancy but if you do you won’t look out of place. There are many pedicure chairs and nail stations so it’s a good place to have all your friends hang out. I hear there are over 1000 colors to choose from. Gel nails are the best way to go for a long lasting wear. They even give you a water bottle if your thirsty. Credit card or cash is acceptable here. There is also a parking lot across from the shop so it’s not a far walk to your car if your scared to mess up your nails. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone in the mood for some great looking nails

Great pedicure and foot/​leg massage. This place never has a long wait and regardless of who you get, you are practically guaranteed a great experience. Would definitely recommend anyone who is shopping at The Greene stop in for a little pampering.

Excellent place to get a quick and wonderful pedicure! Prices are a bit high, but it was a nice experience. Everyone friendly and prompt. My nail technician did a great job and was very thorough. Will be back again.

I give this place 5 stars as I have finally found my nail guy! I had visited this nail salon about a dozen times before I found someone perfect for me. I am extremely picky, and I like to get the quality of what I pay for. I personally feel their prices are decent. There was one time I had a disaster of a gel manicure and the owner of the store took care of it immediately. That is how I met Andrew! Andrew is by far, the BEST in the business! He pays attention to detail which I appreciate since I am a perfectionist and his manicures last the longest I’ve ever had! He is friendly and doesn’t ever make me feel uncomfortable by speaking in another language in front of me (huge common issue at nail salons and it’s very rude) I love love love this salon and it’s the only place I go here in Dayton!

I am from North Carolina but I work for a company here in Dayton. I ALWAYS try to wait to get my nails done so I can get them done at Venetian Nails! I will go an extra week so Lily can do my fill in.
The only reason I do not give them a 5 star review is because they are always so busy. I suggest making an appointment or you may have to wait for a little bit.
Lily always does a great job and she is pretty fast!

We came here as a bridal party, to get manis and pedis done. The staff was very friendly, and they had the space to accommodate 7 of us at once. Their color choices were great, and we the work done was nice. I loved the guy that did my nails, I got gel on both my feet and hands, and he did a great job. The massage on both was fantastic and he didn’t rush. My daughter also got hers done, and they put a flower on her thumbs and big toes, it’s adorable and she is so happy with it. The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is the price. It’s a bit pricey in my opinion… Although, I’m sure they have a high overhead being at the Greene…

I’m not saying this is the worst pedicure I’ve ever had, but it definitely is the worst shellac manicure.
Had my nails done by them last week, and the shellac is already peeling and lifting. It also has micro bubbles that weren’t there in the salon, but appeared the next day. I already had a group mani/​pedi day set up with them a few days later, so I wrote it off as a one time slip.
Fast-​forward to the spa day with the ladies. I had a pedicure, along with two friends, and two other friends got manicures, regular nail polish.
My feet were scraped raw. I had very little callous but the woman scraped and scraped away. Also, my nails are unevenly painted, but when I asked the woman to fix the line on the french manicure, she said that it was straight, and told me the price, then walked off.
One of my friends got a basic mani with a simple polish change. It seemed alright, and they had her sit under the drying light for almost a half hour.
Next morning, her nails looked like the polish had slipped off. Think lava slide.
She went back, later that day, and was greeted with cold silence as someone redid her nails.
Worst part– in the back of the salon all the workers were gathered around a table DILUTING the nail polishes with acetone!
We will never be going back.
Besides all that– waaay overpriced for the poor quality.

Just came in and was rushed to choose my color. The guy came over to me 3 times within 2 minutes. I wanted to do a design but gave up. He rushed me over to the chair and made me choose the color there. I almost left… then he said this would be a good color for your wedding. Not getting married? How rude. And he’s rushing the pedicure as I speak! I go to cosmetology school in Burbank, CA at one of the best schools in the country. So I know how to treat a guest and in no way was I treated well so far today! They also don’t use proper sanitary procedures. While I was getting my shellac put on he didn’t use a protective barrier between the foot rest and my foot. No towel etc. that is illegal. This place could be shut down for that.

The first Pedi I’ve had since moving to Dayton and it was a pretty sweet experience.2 friends and myself went and they seated us all together. my person was super cool, super funny, super cute wearing crazy cool shoes that I wanted to hi jack! They kept us laughing and did a fab job on the «Royal Pedicure.» My new fave pedi place.

I walked in to get a gift card for my girlfriend. It was surprisingly busy for lunchtime on a Thursday afternoon. The aesthetics looked nice and the staff was adequate on the friendly scale. I have heard and read that this place is pretty expensive and one doesn’t normally get the level service they pay for. I can’t attest to that, but my girlfriend came here once and said she liked it, after acknowledging the higher prices. She liked the stylist she had and loved the design she paid extra for to have on her big toe. I think this place is nice to treat yourself to, but if you’re looking for a bargain, move along.

After seeing all the bad reviews I was hesitant about trying Venetian at the Greene but I went with my friend who raved about them to see for myself. I am not sure who everyone else got but my manicure and pedicure were awesome and the girl that did them did a fantastic job. Yes, the price is a little higher then I would have liked to spend but with how good my nails and toes looked after I was happy. If you get a mani/​pedi you will get $ 5 discount since you got a combo. It’s not tons of money off but it helped.
The only thing I did not like was that they girl doing my mani/​pedi was sick and had to get up during the middle a few times to head to the bathroom. The manager watched this and did nothing. I felt like they should have sent her home if she was that sick because that is not good for customers to be around. I would have gladly waited for someone else so she could have went home and rested.
I definitely will be returning for another mani/​pedi in the future.

This «upscale» nail salon was simply ok. It was nothing fabulous but it wasn’t an epic fail either. It is a rather large salon with a ton of space however they pack you in like sardines if there is customer demand.
My pedicure was average. I got the «royal» pedicure and the only real difference between that and the basic was the exfoliating scrub. Skip it. So not worth the extra $ 8. The lady who spiffed up my toes was very nice but didn’t engage in conversation with me very much. I know that there was a language barrier but it would have been nice if she was a bit more social. That’s ok though, I enjoyed my snack (self-​provided) and their fancy massage chairs. They have a FABULOUS selection of OPI colors. You name it… they have.
The real drawback? The price. My pedi was $ 40 (almost double what I usually pay) and it was not worth it. There was nothing special about this place… certainly nothing to warrant the price.
I will not likely be back unless I have a pedicure crisis and I am at The Greene otherwise, I will stick with my trusty $ 28 salon at Fairfield Commons.

I went here again just because I’m still new to the city and have yet to find another nail shop close to where I live. This time the experience was far below anything I’ve experienced before. If you are going to charge $ 40 for a pedicure you better do a damn good job. The dude that was doing my pedicure did horrible with the massage. He barely used any pressure and the massage didn’t even last 5 minutes. The lavender scrub was nice but I really wish the massage would have lasted longer. I asked for a french and what I got was all sorts of messed up. I also asked for an eyebrow wax. I was led to the waxing room and told to wait for the waxer and after waiting for 30 minutes I got up and left.
I like to give businesses a second chance, but this place failed miserably. For a $ 45 pedicure I expected a whole lot more. The Greene is all about how you look from the outside. Same with the Venetian. The décor is great but the service is below standards. So the Greene and the Venetian can shove it. I would rather go to ghetto Dayton mall any day of the week.
