Golden File Nails and Spa Downtown New Orleans

"I recently had the pleasure of visiting Golden File Nails and Spa during my spring break trip to Nola, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. Despite being a walk-in customer in a salon that typically operates on appointments, they graciously accommodated me, which was a delightful surprise. Upon entering, I was warmly greeted and offered a refreshing beverage—a small gesture that instantly made me feel welcomed. The salon boasts an impressive array of nail polish colors, catering to every taste and preference. My experience with Shelly was nothing short of exceptional. I entrusted her with a gel manicure and regular pedicure, emphasizing the importance of keeping my nails short due to my profession in healthcare. Shelly not only delivered immaculate work but also attentively listened to my preferences, ensuring the perfect outcome. Her precision in shaping my nails and meticulous polish application left me incredibly impressed. What truly stood out was Shelly's personalized touch. Upon learning that I was visiting Nola for the week, she went above and beyond by recommending nearby food spots—an unexpected yet delightful gesture that added to the overall experience. I also appreciated the convenience of being able to pay, including tipping, with my credit card—an aspect that is often overlooked but greatly valued. To top it off, receiving cuticle oil as a gift was a lovely bonus, showcasing their commitment to customer satisfaction. Furthermore, the establishment's initiative to create a profile for me in their system ensures a seamless experience for future visits—a thoughtful touch that demonstrates their dedication to fostering long-term relationships with clients. In conclusion, my experience at Golden File Nails was nothing short of fantastic, thanks to Shelly's expertise and the salon's commitment to customer service. I left feeling pampered, satisfied, and eager to return on my next visit to Nola. Many thanks to Shelly for getting me right for my first vacation in a year. ✨"

"I love my nails angel did an amazing job and she was sweet. It was good energy and it was decorated lovely. Can’t wait to go again"

"I had Angel for the Gel-X Manicure and Tiara for the Deluxe Pedicure and everything was beyond perfect! As soon as my mom and I walked into the salon, Brandon greeted us and accommodated our request to sit with one another. The girls were so lovely to talk to and made us feel at home! Would 1000% come back here!"

"Let’s get it ! I came all the way from DC and had an amazing experience from beginning to end! I spoke with Brandon a few days prior to my visit and he was very professional and informative about all services and setting expectations for my appointment booking. Once I arrived to NO their location was easily accessible and such a vibe ! From the decor to music selection! My friend and I were able to be stationed next to each other while getting our pedicures (which is always a plus in girl world). We were offered beverages and that of course that was a great touch for our first time experience! Brandon let me know that Angel would be taking care of me during my appoint and she did and outstanding job and was sweet and very friendly. They had the 90’s R&B vibes flowing and I loved it ! Highly recommend and will be sure to return when I’m in town !"

"Probably the most detail-oriented manicure I’ve ever gotten! The lovely owner gave me a fresh set of Gel-X after a botched job overseas. Easy damage-free soak off removal. Now they look stunning! So crisp & clean. Will definitely be back next time I’m in town. Highly recommend."
