Torrey Nail Salon

This place has really gone downhill since the change of ownership in the past few years. They will tell you they have a seat available and you will end up waiting at least 10 minutes until you are seated. Also, I would highly recommend asking to see the price list before paying for your service. They have given me different prices for the same service and finally I asked for a price breakdown, which was only available in a laminated sheet that was not displayed at the front desk.
In my most recent experience, the manicurist did such a lazy job at filing my nails, that I had to ask to correct it myself before she painted them. She proceeded to start someone else’s manicure and made me wait 30 min, when I only asked for a couple minutes to fix up the rushed nail file she did for me. At the end of the manicure, I realized she did not push my cuticles back or give me any sort of hand massage or hot towel. Basically, I didn’t recieve the service that I paid for, according to the price list.
Convenient location and affordable prices, but inconsistent service and low-​quality work.

Love how nice they are and how well they do their job. I’ve been a regular here for the past 6 months and love it. I work as a wedding Coordinator so we must be perfect at all times. They suggest the best colors on what I tell them I am feeling. I live going during the day when they just open. Starts off the day just right !

I used to be a client at this shop but the management was horrible so I decided to go elsewhere. I heard from friends that they recently changed owners so I decided to try it out since it’s close to my home and WOW! HUGE difference!!! My experience was awesome! Angel did gel on my nails and I love it! She was professional and gave exceptional service. I would definitely recommend and will certainly be back.

I walked into Torrey Nails with a busted up toe nail after a game of flag football. These professionals saved my life, let alone my toenail. They fixed it, and gave me the TLC I felt I deserved. They rebuilt it back to its original condition, and now I’m able to wear slippers with confidence. They absolutely NAILED it! Get it?
Thanks Torrey Nails!

I wouldn’t go here if it was the last salon in town, place is a joke. Would not recommend to anyone there are plenty of nail salons around town.

I find this place to have some of the best customer service at a nail salon. They are quick to get you in but not quick to rush you out. I am always on a tight schedule and because of the space and how many people they have working there I am always able to get a mani and pedi at the same time. It’s clean, and they have great quality chairs and the BEST selection of colors. This is my go to nail salon. Even if I didn’t live near by I would drive the distance to come here. 5 stars!

Wouldn’t recommend this place. Not the best customer service & left with lines all over my nails. And as a side note — seats are very uncomfortable

My friend recommended this place and I’m glad I went. They did an awesome job and overall it was a great experience. I also really like how the place is clean and nice. I’ll be back!

Love this place. Everyone is super friendly and there is never a wait. My favorite place to get a gel manicure.

Cathy was so sweet and really took care of my surfer feet making them look clean and pretty for a change!

Got a routine manscape clean up manicure and pedicure. This salon was clean and had sanitary tools. Friendly vibe and staff. Service was on point! Will definitely be returning.

I came to Torrey Nails on a reccomendation. I had heard this place was good, and decided to stop by. I live 30 minutes away, but since I was in the area, decided I’d go in and try them out. I ended up really liking this place!
I went in for a fill and pedi, and Angel and Kim were great!!! Maybe it’s because I’m pregnant, but the pedi massage felt AAAAA-​MAZING!!! I think I’m now in love with Kim!!! LOL! Conversation with Angel was great, and I noticed the other technicians also engaging with their customers. Its great to go somewhere where there isn’t any awkward silence between the 2 parties. They weren’t pushy in upselling to u, but were great in recommending products/​services.
I did find out the salon is now under new ownership/​management, so I HIGHLY recommend u stop by and check them out!!!
I definitely plan on making the 30 minute drive next time I need a Mani/​Pedi!!!

Angel is… well… an Angel! Be sure to ask for her for the best treatment this place is under new ownership — you MUST try it out. Can’t wait for my next mani/​pedi!

I bought my girlfriend a gift certificate for this place. Apparently they did an excellent job and she said she will definitely be back for her follow up visits.
I must admit i don’t know too much about nails since well… I’m a manly man… but my girlfriend’s nails looks like they were of high quality and had attention to detail.

This is my favorite nail salon they are upgrading and keep getting better. Sanitary, everything is really clean. Jasmine is pro when it comes to nails. Ask for Jasmine. She is my girl I’m always happy with my nails! :) I’ve been going here for almost a year. I’m so grateful I met her.
$ 40 or $ 45 –full set (I can’t remember, I always get a fill) sorry!
$ 35– fill
P. s. They just got all new gel polish and it is awesome! I’ll post pics.
Also you should call ahead and make an appt.

Just had the best pedicure ever! Rose took her time and spoiled me rotten… my feet are in heaven!

Switched to this salon for my bi-​monthly mani/​pedi (always gel polish) about a year ago. Kim is my favorite manicurist and now the only one I will use! For pedicures, most of the girls are great! The service is great, place is clean and sanitized between clients (like it should be!), and the massages are a bit longer than elsewhere. :) If you’re in a hurry, I don’t recommend this place. It’s a «sit back, relax, and feel pampered» kind of place. It only got 4 stars from me because the girls spend a lot of time chatting to each other in a language other than English, and when I have tried to communicate with them, it is a little difficult. Kim’s English is pretty good though. :) Walk-​in wait times are usually very short (under 10 minutes) but I do suggest calling ahead if you want an appt with Kim.

My sister found this place a few years ago & told me about it! I’ve been coming here occasionally ever since! I drive from north Rancho Bernardo just for the awesome pedi! I know it’s not that far of a drive but there is a nail salon directly across the street from my house so coming to Torrey Nails is out of the way but completely worth it! Today I had a European pedicure which was reasonable priced at $ 37. Pretty standard for that type of pedi. The best part is that the nail technician took her time & gave me the most amazing massage! I never felt like she was rushing to get through my pedicure. She even used warm lotion which felt so great with the cold winter weather! The only thing that stopped me from giving 5 stars is that the lotion has a very strong floral smell that lasts for hours afterwards and kinda gave me a headache. Otherwise I would definitely recommend this nail salon!

Came here years ago and didn’t get to writing a review. But it must’ve not impressed me because I hadn’t been back; and I live only a few miles away. I’ve since been going to another place in 4S.
Decided to stop here because I had some free time, needed ny nails done, but couldn’t make it to my usual spot.
I’m really impressed and completely enjoyed myself. The colors are so neatly arranged. It was peaceful and quiet; usually I can’t even hear myself think at a nail salon. Manager asked if I needed a magazine or water. Pedicurist gave me the most AMAZING massage!
I will definitely be back.

I’ve been a longtime customer here. This place has undergone renovations and I personally like the new open setup they have.
Manicurists/​pedicurists are usually a hit or miss. I do agree with some reviewers about the inconsistencies, but if you have a regular manicurist/​pedicurist then you shouldn’t have a problem. I, for one don’t go here as often as before, because the staffing has changed. The ones I used to go to no longer work there, but I do come once in a blue moon and they still remember me.
With that aside, my last treatment was so-​so. The massage wasn’t as long as before and there was too much chit chatting going on that I barely could really RELAX. I guess management has gone quite lenient here. Where’s the professionalism ?! Also, I usually feel like a nail spa should have more of a calm/​soothing environment. Not this one. Boo.
I got a mani/​pedi. They tried to get me to get gel fills, but when I said no, the manicurist seemed to take offense to it. She even asked me why I stopped getting my eyebrows waxed and that my eyebrows were crooked. Wow the nerve. Ugh. (Btw, I do threading now and I think my eyebrows are just FAB ! Haha)
Pedicurist was much nicer though, but she barely clipped my cuticles. She only filed my toes. WTF ?! According to her, my nails looked good to begin with. Uhhhh… fail ! On the plus side, the massage was decent. This is a convenient place for me to go to since it’s close to him and at a shopping center where I can get my errands done. I just wish the quality was better here.
As for my mani, well that was a little better, but the crappy massage (felt like 5 seconds !) I got was not worth my money. I think I paid $ 37 which is $ 7 more than the other nail salon I go to and they do a much better job in my opinion.
I keep hoping things would improve and get better, but I just don’t see it happening. /​Le sigh.
Anywhoo.3 stars at best… and I’m being nice.
