The best nail salon in the city. Long lasting gel polish.

Very poor customer service. I called them twice to make the appointment but they just hanged on the phone to make me wait, I waited more than 2 mins but they are seemed to forget making me wait. I hanged up and called again after a while but they repeated to make me hold the phone again… I had to ask why not the person who catch the phone just take reservation for me. SHE said she was being busy…. I’m also busy to make the phone call and wait! If she was busy to answer the phone call, just don’t catch the phone call, or tell me when to call back! It was very rude to take my time hanging on the phone!

The gel manicures here are hit or miss, depending on the technician, which is really unfortunate, considering they’re quite pricey. One time you get the best manicure you’ve ever had, then the next time, it’s bumpy, and your nails are all different lengths and shapes. My advice is find someone you like and stick with them, which also costs more… but it’s better than walking around like you tried to do your own manicure.

Best nail job I’ve ever had!

The best place to get your nails done and done right!!!!

I had a massage by Nina that was great! She really worked the knots out and she added on a little aromatherapy technique at the end. Then I had a facial by Karina P and she’s absolutely amazing! She analyzed my troubled skin well and did exactly what it needed! And they always have promos going on.

Clean, professional, and courteous staff. Had a mani and pedi done. I’m new to the city. Susan was great!

I’m sad to be writing this review. I have been coming here for almost two years. I love my nail lady and my nails always but yesterday I experienced unacceptable behavior. I have never ever had issues paying until yesterday when one of my cards declined. As soon as that happened they didn’t schedule my next appointment, immediately were nasty and watched me until I left the store (the owner came out from the back because I was waiting for my Uber I guess they thought I was going to steal something lol!) I have been a respectful customer and feel I would not have been treated this way if I wasn’t a person of color. I don’t plan on returning. Very sad and racist establishment For anyone wondering yes I did pay my full amount owed and gave manicurist and pedicurist a great tip.

Currently you have to call directly to make a nail appointment: sixfoursix - 649 - fiftythree twentyfour (this is for nail appointments only)

Deceitful front desk, stay away. They will try and take your credit card information.

Best Japanese gel manicures ever. I also got the green tea spa pedicure this time and LOVE it. Miriam and Lilly did a great job ??????????

This salon is not famous for its haircuts service, but I always come here and never feel disappointed

This was my first time ever getting a massage and facial but the staff made me feel heard and understood. Throughout my massage, the person was graceful and asked questions to ensure that I was comfortable. My facial was an experience I could never forget, the person was precautious and informative. Asking questions to make sure my current routine was giving me maximum hydration and glow. After the facial, I couldn't help but be thankful for her advice. Finally, my Mani/Pedi was seamless, my nails came out clean and vibrant. Also, she answered questions I had about doing a Mani/Pedi at home. Overall, the experience was amazing, definitely worth the money.
Stefania S.
I had a European facial w/Karina. She is the best. Also, receptionist ladies are nice and professional.
Milan M.
I have been to many massages but Milica is doing the best massage I have ever experienced. From now on I am her client.

My nails are terribly week and I work in retail, so I wanted to get my nails done in a "healthy manner" which landed me to this place. I was intrigued about gel extensions and wanted to try it out and I do not regret it at all! The place is great, clean, friendly staff and professional. Maria, thank you for your work of art today and for reviving my nails! Second photo: done by Chiaki November 2021

No air bubbles and the mail polish lasted a long longer than other places I’ve been!

Headline: Truly the best nail experience I've had in the city, and I highly recommend it! This salon is unique because it's actually much more than just a nail salon, but you can absolutely come here only for your nails. The Japanese gel technique is so precise, and I felt that so much care & attention were given during my mani/pedi. I was late to my appointment, and instead of the work being rushed or sloppy, I was provided with options to tweak the services I had booked to ensure everything was completed to perfection (and it was). My fiance scheduled a message while I was doing my nails, and he highly recommends Tatjana. Hara and Martha worked on my mani/pedi, but I have to say Martha's work was exceptional. I did a single color, but I hope to come back for a design sometime. The salon also provides a wide range of other services like laser hair removal, body sculpting, and more. I've been in the city for 3 years, and this has been by far the best experience.
Sara S.
Always amazing! Love the whole team here, been a client for over 8 years, never once has it been an average experience.

Had a facial with Mae. Courteous staff and the environment was extremely clean.

I loved gel manicure!

Mariam M.
I come once a month for a cal gel manicure. Yes. ONCE a month. It lasts for a long time. These ladies definitely take their time and make sure I leave happy. I had my had done here one. Beautiful color. I highly recommend this place :). AYA is the mail tech and she is the best ????

Nice atmosphere
Sacha G.
Most talented nail artists! Love their work and spay very good attention to details. I also got a massage and facial here at the spa and was probably the best massage I’ve ever had!
Amanda R.
I came here for the signature European facial with Karina. She was amazing and well informed on the skin industry. She explained each part of the process and helped me understand which products would help my skin. I would definitely recommend to a friend.
Vy N.
Liya helped me with a facial today - she was fantastic, kind and professional
Shahd A.
Good but over priced. Staff are nice and they took really good care but I paid 45 USD for a shape and polish!
Nichelle S.
Loved it here and loved how my nails came out!
Salman R.
good
Yasmine M.
Very clean relaxing zen environment. Got my eyelashes done and it felt like she wasn’t even doing my lashes. Sterilized everything that’s used.
Ammie L.
I’m sure they do nails excellently but I came here for lash extensions and a body scrub on separate occasions and the experience were both sub par. The lashes did not look full; nor did they stay on for more than a week. The body scrub was not even 45 minutes, even though it is advertised as 45 minutes. It felt good but after the scrub, the lady turned on the water for me and that I’d be given privacy to “take my time” and shower. They don’t provide shampoo; just some random “soap” filled inside a Purell bottle. After showering for 20 minutes, the towel I was given was damp and it cleanliness was questionable because it looked like a really old and discolored towel. Then I heard a knocking and was asked if I was finished ... I mean I thought I was able to take my time and I thought I was at a Spa... I wasn’t even offered a hair dryer as I walked out with wet hair... I had to ask the receptionist if I could borrow a hair dryer... she said I could go upstairs to their hair salon... luckily the people upstairs were kind enough to let me borrow it. I don’t know why this place is even called a Spa... I did not feel relaxed at all. If you want a legitimate body scrub, go to King Spa in NJ. They will actually scrub you down and make you feel like a new born baby.

The best nail spot in all of NYC!

Wonderful detailed manicure and pedicure!
Natalia S.
Tatjana gives the best massages. She always attends to your needs, pays great attention to detail. Her hands are blessed by God! During my last visit she wore the mask the entire session, was professional and clean as always. Tatjana is the best massage therapist you can ever find.

If you ever need a blowout or a cut and color while your in the city, CHECK THIS PLACE OUT! IT'S WORTH IT! I recently had my haircut here, very sweet and listened to what I wanted. I am very pleased. I've been going to them since they were at another location. Their colorist is truly a miracle worker.
Peter B.
My wife loved it. Highly recommend them. They could get 6 stars if they had a cigar bar for me to wait in ????
Omyra Martinez J.
love this place! the staff is awesome, and they really know how to pamper and make you feel special. They did a great job with my nails, everyone loved it.
Rotem R.
Karina was great! A real pleasure you meet! She was incredibly thorough and gave an excellent facial! A stellar experience!
Rosie B.
Best haircut I've had! I felt really comfortable with how my hair looked right after the cut which never ever happens. I am happy to say I left completely satisfied!
Faye B.
Staff was friendly and attentive. Very professional and excellent service.
Connie R.
Seeing that it was my first time, he was informative during the whole process. Overall, I'm very happy with my experience at Yukie Natori New York Salon & Spa, and would highly recommend it.
Dawn H.
Great experience here from beginning to end! I really appreciated that! My cut is exactly what I was looking for :).
Edith H.
The service was extremely friendly, thoughtful and the staff went over and beyond to ensure I was comfortable. The location was easy to find and access. Will most definitely be going back.
Meghan J.
This was a really exceptional experience, I wish I lived here so I could come back and see Yukie Natori Salon & Spa all the time.
Erika N.
This place never disappoints! I love it and always love my nails. I don’t think I’ve ever had an issue with my nails here.

(Translated by Google) During our week in New York, we wanted to relax in a spa. The premises are really beautiful and the atmosphere very soothing. We were even able to recognize certain exclusive French products of high quality. My wife opted for a facial and a massage for me. The massages are performed on the lower level in absolute calm. This is me Karina performed the delivery and has addressed all my requests. Pressure massage areas to promote, etc. A pure moment of happiness. I recommend very strongly that living well being! (Original) Durant notre semaine à New York, nous voulions nous relaxer dans un spa. Les locaux sont vraiment magnifiques et l'ambiance très apaisante. Nous avons même pu reconnaître certains produits français exclusifs de grande qualité. Ma femme a opté pour un soin du visage et moi pour un massage. Les massages s'effectuent à l'étage inférieur dans un calme absolu. C'est Karina qui m'a réalisé la prestation et elle a pris en compte toutes mes demandes. Pression du massage, zones à favoriser, etc. Un pur instant de bonheur. Je vous recommande très vivement ce salon de bien être !

(Translated by Google) I took advantage of my week of vacation in New York to have a facial: a very pleasant experience that I recommend! Following the comments I read on the spa's google page, I asked Karina to do the treatment for me, a very good choice because her professionalism and expertise are to be highlighted! A top beauty moment! My skin is smooth and clear, I am really satisfied with it. I will definitely come back! (Original) J'ai profité de ma semaine de vacances à New York pour me faire faire un soin du visage: une expérience très agréable que je recommande! Suit aux commentaires que j'ai pu lire sur la page google du spa, j'ai demandé à ce que Karina me réalise le soin, un très bon choix car son professionnalisme et son savoir-faire sont à souligner! Un instant beauté top! Ma peau est lisse et nette, j'en suis vraiment satisfaite. Je reviendrai sans aucun doute!

This has been my go to place for wax for years (Hilda and Karina are amazing) but this review is not about them or waxing, it’s about laser and Lisa that does the laser services. I always wanted to do laser on a few areas of my body and the girls at the front desk kindly set up a package for me. I went on Saturday for my first session and the experience was just terrifying. Lisa started with my underarms and I don’t think I ever experienced so much pain in my entire life! She burnt my skin and claimed she had the intensity level on the highest! Why??!!! I kept asking why does it hurt so much? I’ve been to other laser places for underarm laser and the machine used was super high tech, they put some type of gel or cream on the area I guess so it wouldn’t hurt as much and it was completely painless. With Lisa it was the complete opposite! First the machine she uses looks like it’s more than 20 years old. Extremely loud sounds like an old washing machine. She doesn’t put anything on the area and it’s extremely extremely painful! I was in so much pain I told her to stop and that I didn’t want to continue with the other areas. I was shaking, I couldn’t even speak. It was that bad! If you are looking to get laser DO NOT GO THERE! Worst experience ever!!!!!!!

Very professional and a great spa environment. Staff were attentive and friendly
Zimeng J.
I went to Yukie for gel manicure, it’s amazing!! The manicure artist did every step very meticulously and will not recommend expensive add ons if all you want is just single color. The products they use were probably brought from Japan according to the labels. The price is super fair. They normally don’t charge tips to card but allowed me to do so because it was my first visit. I hope it will go directly to my manicure artist otherwise I would feel very terrible.
Karen S.
DO NOT get a facial here. I arrived with a few blackheads and left with ugly bumps. The therapist asked if she could lance my skin and when I said I had social plans and didn’t want anything I couldn’t cover with makeup, she proceeded to leave me with bumps that even the receptionist and other therapists agreed were bad. The manager was not in and there was no attempt to fix the situation. I was then made to wait 20 minutes past my scheduled pedicure. All in all, a poor experience.
Ekaterina G.
Possibly the best nail salon in NYC. Maho created a perfection - and just like I wanted. I am very picky and I am 100% satisfied. I will be back!
Ini I.
Absolutely terrible customer service. I was planning on going since my boyfriend had gotten me a gift certificate. Scheduling with them is the most IMPOSSIBLE feat I have attempted in my life. The difficulty in finding an appointment time was causing me to grey! If you are a millennial with a fast paced life then stay away or be subtext to the $40(!!!) cancellation or change policy. I have to add, this is not a knock on their spa/nail services, but rather the customer service. Unfortunately due to scheduling I never had my appointment.
Amel R.
A friend & I came for a swedish massage and it was wonderful. My massage therapist was Tatiana, she was amazing!! Overall, it was a lovely experience and would definitely recommend this spa!!!!
Mina C.
This is my absolute favorite spa ever (aside from The Peninsula Spa where I get my massages and facials done.) I come here once a month for my gel manicure and sometimes pedicure, and every manicurist is cordial and does a great job on my nails. They are maintained almost exactly the same way as the first day I get them throughout the entire month, until it's time for a fresh set. They also offer tea and water free of charge, and the location is very neat, organized, and clean. I am also always taken on time and the payment process is also very smooth. It's my go-to nail place. They also offer facials and massages that I will soon be trying.
Aine F.
The best of the best gel designs. Don’t want to share the secret!
Danijela S.
Best massage and facial I ever had in NYC! From the moment you walk in the salon you feel welcome and comfortable, very clean rooms and professional staff. Tatjana was my massage therapist, and I highly recommend her, she listened and accommodated all of my requests. I have problems with my upper back for a while, and she did an excellent job removing the pain. I will definitely come back again!
Blanca F.
i was there this pass Sunday and I had 3 different treatments, but the facial was not great at all, she used so much pressure on my nose that was so red, witch i said ok it will go away soon, but it last me till Wednesday and now the skin is dry due to the pressure-redness. The reflexology had done many times in others places, but at this place was a first time that it was not used any cream was done dry, i guess i should have requested or say something. The massage was great with Sima :) So overall i give 4 starts to the massage
Margaret K.
Loving the experience. However, please stop using plastic straws.
Stacy S.
Second time here and loooove it! never felt so pampered, excellent work and service. This place just makes me relax to the fullest. Give it a try, you will not regret it, guaranteed!
Angelic G.
Yes, yes, and yes! Great job, on point, good conversation, they speak Spanish, o yes, and did an amazing job! Also great price!

Best message ever- Tatiana rocks he Sweedish massage. Take your weary bones here and they will take excellent care of you! Be sure to make an appointment as they book up fast. Very professional, terrific space.
Lauren K.
Great salon, excellant staff, and fair prices. First time here but I'll be back. Thank you Rie-san!

Clean amazing technicians

A must visit when you’re in New York city! The location is huge and has 3 floors, with everything from a bar and tea room to salon, nail area and massage room. I was so excited to try their new head spa treatment (similar to a scalp facial with a seriously amazing head massage). I cannot tell you how relaxed and pampered I felt. This is something that I’m making a habit! Absolutely loved every moment! The staff was great, space was beautiful, and they offer every treatment under the sun! A++++
Jacquelyne S.
Located in Midtown Manhattan Yuki Natori is probably the best Japanese style nail salon in NYC! They recently moved to a new location on 56th street with a beautiful waiting area (even a bar!!). You can sip some wine, tea or coffee while getting beautified. I have been going for a few years and can’t think about going anywhere else! Mina is my favorite, she does a great job and is super sweet and patient

Best manicure I’ve ever received! You can tell they put so much care and precision into the nail shaping, cuticle trimming, and nail art. It really is another level beyond other places I’ve been to. For $60 it wasn’t too expensive either. Recommend Kaori, who did an awesome job with the watercolor effect. (Pic is from 1 week later—still going strong!)
Jun D.
Worst experience ever. Was told that the shop was relocated but never found the new location.
Lee Y.
Love the service here

My nailshop for 3 years now!

Professional, clean and the best biogel manicures that last!
Janice O.
Totally awesome! Yukari can duplicate any art design showed to her.
Ki-Anna D.
Mina was awesome. She really took the time to achieve my desired results. This is a prime location spot! Near Sephora, Bloomingdales etc. Lovely bathroom and kind receptionist. Try to miss the rush and it's by appointment only. They do take debit and cash for payment and tips.
Anat O.
Best place for gel manicures. Also best service ever.
Amy J.
I was looking for a place that made a good gel manicure and I saw the reviews and pictures I gave it a try this place is very beautiful, clean top of the line place I will say. I was treated like a VIP client here and my nails were done beautifully.
Ashley A.
This salon is so great! I got a gel manicure that didn’t chip or break and lasted for 3 weeks!
Kim Small M.
Sandra is a special person & is very talented.

(Translated by Google) A wonderful nail salon and beauty salon packed with Japanese skills. You can make a nice nail even if you come. It's a popular shop, so reservations are required. I go to gel nails occasionally. (Original) ???????????????????????????? ??????????????????????? ????????????????????????????
Elizabeth O.
Reception girl Rose is highly not nice and rude, it make me very uncomfortable to be there, call there and ask any questions! Mani gel flies off in 1.5 weeks! Always i had some problem with changing my mani girl with who I have the appointment! Just change without ask me! I have finished coming, because the last time, I again received another mani girl, with whom I did not have appointment! It’s very annoying
Andrea V.
I love this salon! I've been for 14+ gel manicures, and these ladies know their stuff. To my understanding, Yukie is a beauty school in Japan, and manicurists that study there spend some time at their NYC location. All the manicurists I've worked with have been Japanese, with varying degrees of fluency in English. They're fantastic, friendly, and do a great job prepping and then applying gel for a manicure. I've had manicures here that last 4 weeks in great condition, but usually get 2 and a half out of mine because I'm a nail biter. They also do Japanese nail art (where nails have tons of motifs, charms or gems), which I always drool over but never have time for. I can't recommend Yukie enough for their gel manicures.
Olivia M.
I used to come here all the time about a year ago. Went back again a few months ago and after a couple of days, my gel extensions actually PEELED off. I emailed them explaining what happened and Julie, one of the receptionists who I LOVE explained to me they got a different type of gel and that I could come back for a new pair, this time free, and they would use a different gel. I come back, willing to pay for a new set (because it had been a couple of weeks and I was meeting with a different nail technician) with high hopes yesterday and only an hour ago, yet another one of my gel extensions broke! I haven't done anything between today and tomorrow that would loosen or weaken them. 2 stars because they used to be amazing, but my last two experiences have been extremely disappointing.
Evmorfea S.
By far the best nail salon in NYC!!! If you're lucky, snag a seat with Miki, Yuka or Maki! You won't regret it!
Autumn T.
very expensive but worth it every time. gel manicure with design lasts for 3 weeks with no peeling
Haley S.
Great nail designs!
Natalia W.
Gel nails that last at least 4 weeks!
Pauline J.
Great quality work. My nails last up to 4 weeks
Five Way F.
The best manicure I've had. Ever.

(Translated by Google) I was drunk 30 minutes before the reservation. The reason is that the stylist doesn't come. I'm sorry. Worst experience ever.
