First time here, and they were great!!! I came kind of late, and they still took me. Frannie did my nails, and she did exactly what I wanted, removing old acrylic, cutting way down, and painting with gel. And she gave me a wonderful massage too. I will definitely go again in the future.

Terrible, they put the water so hot for a pedicure and kept cutting me with the cuticle cutters! You can tell they are constantly making fun of you and the manager is very unprofessional.Once everything was done and I had to pay she automatically asked for tip and had charged me more as a tip as well! Totally unprofessional and just awful to take someone’s money like that

This place is super unprofessional. As soon as you walk in they don’t even say hello. Instead, the 6+ workers that work there (they have too much workers it’s SUPER CROWDED) just whisper to each other & make you feel super unwelcome! I come here because its my local nail salon & sometimes I need a last minute set but this will be the last time I come here. Every time when I finish paying, the owner Mimi asks me OUT LOUD in front of everybody how much I want to leave for tip as in if I HAD to leave a tip & makes me feel forced. Btw , they rush your job ALL THE TIME.PLEASE SKIP THIS SALON , it is NOT recommended!

Terrible experience at Mimi's Nails! The staff was incredibly rude, no greetings, and they refused to take any clients. Went back in the morning, encountered the same rudeness. Avoid this place at all costs! ??

Went in on 11/09 to get a last minute full set and pedicure before my birthday weekend vacation (it was suggested due to my time crunch) I absolutely regret it!! My birthday was Saturday 11/12 and by then nails had already started breaking, one broke, the others lifted near the nail bed before breaking completely. Not to mention the messed up cuticles on both hands and toes. No pumice stone used during my pedicure and I’m sure that’s a least standard. What put the icing on the cake when she told me my total ($110) and I had $100 cash and asked if I could use Apple Pay. She then proceeds to tell me that she gets charged a lot to use card and to pay all the cash and then we would still charge my card the difference (and charged $5 to use my card!!!) if I had the option to do it all again, I’d paint my own nails clear and keep that $100.

Mimi's Nails has been my go-to (specifically for gel pedi or gel mani) for the many years being a Castro Valley resident. They accommodate anyone who wants a pedi or mani; all are welcome! Kids are welcomed too; pedi chairs can scoot up close for their short legs & Mimi has pillows for them if necessary. Spacious salon that's clean, bright, & fresh ambiance. Pedi chairs have multiple massage back options as well to incline or recline for comfort. 1 large TV on the wall for anyone getting a pedi/mani to see; captions on. I believe credit card welcomed, but CASH IS PREFERED! ATM machine next door or BofA across the street if makes sense for you. Mimi & all the staff are always friendly, professional, & do a fabulous job!WAXING: $15 eyebrows, $10 lip, $20 under armsMANI / PEDI:Basic Mani $20 / Basic Pedi $28Signature Mani $25 / Sig Pedi $40Gel Mani $30 / Gel Pedi $40NAIL ENHANCEMENTS:Nail designs $5+Color change $15Nail repair $5Dip powder $45Ombre full set $45+Acrylic fill, fill set, or with Gel polish $25+Acrylic full, full set, or with Gel polish $35+

First time at the salon. My boyfriend and I got pedicures. And I got my nails done. The nail salon seemed very popular with the locals and loyal customers. Mimi, the owner, was very kind and cheerful. She knew the customers by name. The salon was very well decorated. My favorite part is the lit up nail polish shelves. You can see it in the background of one of my photo. What I enjoy the most is the atmosphere, all the nail techs were very kind, and there were many of them all dressed in scrubs.

I wish I could give no stars. They are very disrespectful of your time. Appointment at 2:30 people Come after and seated before. I'll take my money elsewhere. Rude and totally unprofessional!

I was really impressed my Mimi and her cute little nail shop. I came here on a whim as i live 25 min away not knowing what to expect and I am so glad I did. Her nail shop is very well put together with cute classic decor and she was super quick. She did a great job with my acrylics. Please disregard that other person’s comments about Mimi being dominating. Its just not true. Maybe confident and straight forward but in no way dominating. I will be returning. I definitely recommend anyone looking for quick cute nails to book an appointment. You wont be disappointed.

My third time coming here as opposed to my usual nail salon.... Because they were booked. I made an appointment on a Saturday morning with Mimi, the owner.... Only to discover several others had as well. When I arrived to my appointment, I had to wait. I saw how the owner greeted other patrons and was seriously disappointed at how she spoke to them. Business owners need to realize that people will forget what you say to them, but, no one forgets how they are treated. It is NOT OK TO YELL AT PEOPLE DISRESPECTFULLY. My nail technicians TORE UP my skin. Even though I jerked back my hands and feet several times, and verbally expressed that they were hurting me. I will never go back again.

Mimi and her team are amazing! So friendly and my nails always get compliments. I usually get an acrylic fill and pedicure. They always are able to take me in the same day, and they're open until 8pm which helps a lot when I run my own business and don't have time to go early in the day. Thanks Mimi and team!
