6 reviews for Shangri-La
I really, really enjoy this place... The staff is SO personable. I started coming here when I was in college (living in SF). I came here with my mom who had been going there since the very first week it opened. She raved about it, telling me how much better it was than Top Nails. I laughed at her when she mentioned that... At the time I thought Top Nails was the shit... No joke, I thought it was the best of the best (I was wrong)!
To say the least, I was a bit apprehensive. But to my amazement, they did a WONDERFUL job... And the actual shop is very quaint and cute. In a way, they're my "Salon Belle Linda" of Sonoma County (Salon Belle Linda = California @ 7th Ave, SF), and that says a lot because Salon Belle Linda really is the shit!
And you know, the price isn't that bad... At least not for what you get; a good massage, nails that won't chip in a day, and a very friendly staff to make you look and feel beautiful!
I always look forward to my little trips to Petaluma so that I can stop in for a little treat... And the best part about it when I stop in is that they still remember my name... I don't even live in Petaluma, yet they still remember me... I love it!
After a terrible experience with Spatini, I ended up getting an appointment with Shangri La.I didn't choose them first because they have no website. When I got there the atmosphere was nice and decorated very well in the theme of their name. The ladies were very nice to us and though it took some convincing to treat a four year old to the same manicure an adult would get, when they gave it to us it was wonderful. I will definitely go again. They have the pedicure spa chairs and a very welcoming feel about them.
I brought a bridal party here last July, and we had a great time. The owner was very friendly and accommodating. When I called and explained that we wanted manis and pedis for six women, many of the local spas said they could not handle such a large group. But here they assigned four staff members, and rotated us in and out of services, and it was an excellent and fun experience. The staff were friendly and willing to offer advice about colors, details, and so on. They had no problem with us bringing in some snacks and making a party out of it. The services were good; everyone's nails looked lovely, including two days later at the wedding.
I have to say this is one of the worst places I have gotten my nails done yet!! The staff has mastered their fake smiles and very rude. My good girlfriend was getting married so we headed here to get manicures and pedicures. Since there was only 2 of us on a Thursday morning we didn't make an appointment. The squeezed us in knowing that they did not have time to see us. We offered to come back later and they had us sit down. I had some old lady do my toes. She didn't say a peep to me. She cut the sides of my toe nails down which was completely unnecessary. She even made me bleed!!!!!! I had her do a simple french pedicure and she had to have another girl put the white on. The color was uneven and looked gray. I had another lady just paint my nails since I had already had them filed earlier in the week. She did such a poor job that there were lines in the white. I asked her to fix it and she puffed on her way over to do so. I had spots of white all over my hands that I once again had to ask her to remove!! The brides nails came out about the same. We both wish we had time before the wedding to go somewhere else to have our nails fixed by a better salon. I would not rec commend this place to anyone!!
I've been there several times and will return.
Good work, nice atmosphere. Pleasant staff.
The only downside is the older lady who prattles on at length in Vietnamese. She doesn't seem to do much of anything so maybe she's an owner. Quiet (or English!) would be good.
Appointments are recommended, but not usually required.
If you want a relaxing spa experience, i recommend you find another spot. the staff was unaccommodating, even bordering on rude. also, the services are overpriced.
