I highly recommend this nail spot! I get my nails done by the owner, Phi and Pedi, done by Helen! Both ladies do a wonderful job! I've been to almost every nail place here in Manteca. By far, this is my fav spot!
The vibe is definitely there! They offer you coffee and water while you're there. The music they play is so soothing. Makes me feel like I'm at an actual spa.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Dar A.CA, CA081Feb 9, 2024Updated review
I went to this salon on 2/8/2024. The lady that was going to help me, became very disrespectful by sqeezing my hand very hard and saying that I was wearing acrylic polish, and I only wear gel. I actually didn't understand why she was acting like this. She works on station #10.
Thank God , the very sweet girl on station #5 stepped in and told me that she would do my nails. All I wanted was a nail fill and change of color.
This girl tried but my nails look horrible. I wanted cats eyes but really just got 3 layers of polish.
I will find another salon.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Sep 19, 2023Previous reviewAnnie is the best. Make an appointment with her . She is quick and amazing. I also love how she talks to you and not the coworkers.

It was that time again for a pedicure and New Star was able to take walk-ins. I had no expectation here since it was my first time and I was long over due!
I received the deluxe spa package for $50 with callus removal, sugar scrub and paraffin wax. Helen was my nail technician and she did an amazing job, with not just cutting my toe nails but also shaping them, you know, they treat guys any-kind-of-way?? I was not rushed, the leg and foot massage with the right pressure was great with hot stones! Basketball season is coming up and I am ready to play ball, don't judge me! LOL
Helen it was a pleasure to be introduce and I will be a repeating customer.Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - Krystina F.Fremont, CA1445310Feb 6, 2024
Better option than most places in the Lathrop/Manteca area. However, it's extremely frustrating when you make an appointment and are sitting there waiting for 15 minutes or longer. Especially because I typically book my appt during my lunch hour.

Love the pedicures here! They are very attentive and the prices are pretty much the same for the area. They have a large selection of colors to choose and everyone seems very nice and friendly. Will be my go to for my monthly pedi.

This was an excellent experience for our girl's trip! We had a great time and we all looked fabulous for the entire trip and after. Thank you to the team for amazing gel Mani-Pedis!

As I sit here with partially started nails. I am a bit frustrated with this place. I started coming here based off the reviews. I was going to Hannah who did a good job but I called to reschedule and she called out sick so I went to Phi. I was not too happy with Phi's work as my nails were lumpy and the white she did wasn't very clean. I tried to schedule with Hannah again but she wasn't working that day, so I was placed with Kathy who did the best job on my pink and white nails thus far. I called to reschedule with Kathy and she no longer works there, I asked who was the best at pink and white and they referred me to Ana. Anna had started on my nails when she said it will be $65. I couldn't understand at first so she broke it down on a piece of paper for me. She wrote down $45 for basic fill, $5 for broken nail, $10 for French and then said $5 for coffin shape which I already have (and also would have been $70) I politely questioned why she's charging me to keep my current shape which she asked for a translator to help her. They asked me if I had my nails done there before, I explained how I've had to bounce around with techs and how I was never charged this amount before, so Ana said "okay you wait for Hannah to finish" and would not even continue (which I'm okay with considering the dishonesty)
Kathy did amazing but is gone and Ella does a great job at pedicures but didn't clean under the nails as it states in the pedicure. Typically Ella does a wonderful job so it could have been just the combination of everything.
The reason for three stars is the front desk lady stopped me as I left and apologized and wanted to rectify the situation, which I can appreciate. After which the owner Tim also stopped me and had a very polite and professional approach and wanted to fix the confusion, which shows an incredible amount of care in his customers. I would consider coming back specifically because the owner and front desk employee exuded such great customer service.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Carol O.Gaithersburg, MD6125May 11, 2023

Best pedicure I've ever had. Lilian is amazing! She was very detailed & did not rush through service. Overall I've always had great pedicures here but she has been the best!!

Don't waste your time, I've given them two try's and while I will give credit to phi as a knowledgeable nail tech their prices are inconsistent. I went in to fix one nail and have a fill and left paying the same amount I did when I got them 2 weeks ago. That experience is a whole review of its own.
It's a NO for me. I should not have to pay 60 dollars for a fill, color change and one repair nail. The prices listed are $30 fill 5 repair and 10 French ... the numbers don't add up.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
