About

Cupcake Nail & Beauty Bar is listed on FindALoco in Salt Lake City, UT with address, phone, website, hours, and map location. Common services and related keywords include Nail Salon.

Cupcake Nail & Beauty Bar is a nail salon at 218 S 300 E in Salt Lake City, Utah (84111). It offers a convenient downtown option for people looking for a manicure, gel service, nail removal, or a design-focused finish. Customer experiences mention chrome nails and chrome French manicures, with one guest describing a nail technician who helped choose colors to match an inspiration photo. If you have a particular look in mind, bringing a reference and discussing the design before the service can help set clear expectations about what is possible and how long it may take.

The salon’s reviews reflect both positive experiences and areas where visits have not met expectations. Some customers praise the nail artists as talented, kind, and personable, and describe friendly service across visits with different technicians. One reviewer specifically appreciates the owner, Rich, and recommends booking with Maria T or Nancy. Other guests report dissatisfaction with results, price, or service timing, including a gel manicure and removal that took considerably longer than expected. For a smoother appointment, consider confirming the requested service, estimated duration, design details, and price with the salon before work begins. The overall rating is 4.3 from 289 reviews, while individual experiences can vary.

The setting is described by one reviewer as beautiful, and booking through the salon’s website is noted as convenient. That combination may suit someone who values an accessible booking process and wants to discuss a specific manicure with a nail technician. It may also work for nearby residents seeking a salon close to home, or for visitors in Salt Lake City who want to plan a nail appointment around other downtown errands. Because reviews mention different outcomes and appointment lengths, allow enough time rather than scheduling a visit too tightly before another commitment. Clear communication about the finish you want—such as chrome or a French manicure—can make the appointment more predictable.

Cupcake Nail & Beauty Bar is located at 218 S 300 E, Salt Lake City, UT 84111. Its listed hours are Tuesday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.; Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.; and Sunday, noon to 6:00 p.m. The salon is closed on Monday. Hours and availability can affect when you book, so check the salon’s current booking options before heading over. Whether you are considering a straightforward gel manicure, removal, or a chrome-inspired look, sharing your preferences and confirming timing and cost in advance can help you decide if this Salt Lake City nail salon is the right fit.

Amazing service! No wait time, and my nail tech helped me pick the perfect colors for my inspo. Got a chrome French manicure, and everything was done in 1.5 hours. Love how they turned out!

This was the worst manicure I’ve ever had. I’m not sure how this salon is rated above 4 stars. I did a nail removal and gel manicure that was supposed to take 1 hour and 15 minutes. Instead, it took over 2 and a half hours. I came in at 5:40 and wasn’t done until after 8:10, over an hour after they closed. During my manicure, my nail technician (I never got her name) wouldn’t stop talking, and she used her hands to talk, so she would stop working on my nails every time she made a comment. Just filing my nails took 30 minutes, and the shape was so inconsistent. She also over-filed, so it started to hurt my nail beds. The painting was just as bad. She made lots of small strokes instead of long thin ones, so the color came out looking blotchy. There are patches with thicker polish within the same nail. There’s also a lot of texture, which she said was because of the nail polish brush leaving residue, but I’m pretty sure it’s because she used the wrong base coat. She helped me pick a good color, which is why this is two stars instead of one, but you can’t be a nail tech and not be able to do nails well. My boyfriend said that they looked like I had done them, definitely not like they were professionally done, and it’s saying a lot that even he could tell. To top it off, my nail beds have been in pain since the manicure, and today (the next day) they started bleeding. This should be unacceptable. I wish I could get a refund because my nails are literally in worse shape (and pain) than when I came in. If you’re looking for a nail salon, I strongly urge you to go somewhere else.

The place is beautiful, but the service I received was not good at all. I am not at all satisfied with the result or the price I was charged. I asked for chrome nails with a little fire design, but they didn't know how to do it, so I asked for just chrome nails (because I was in a hurry to get to my appointment). In the end, this was the result (see photos). I didn't get what I wanted and was still charged for the manicure, nail art, and chrome color, for a total of $72!!!! It wasn't worth it... 😭 She also cut my finger, didn't remove the cuticle properly, and didn't clean and file around the nail properly... (my nails are 2 days old)

Just visited this salon for the first time as it’s close to where I live and more convenient than where I was getting my nails done before. I regret coming here. Let me start with what I liked: it was convenient to book via their website. I …

LOVE cupcake nails! I’ve seen a few different nail techs due to scheduling and EVERY. SINGLE. ARTIST. has been incredibly talented, kind, and personable. Their customer service is top notch, especially from Rich, the owner. Can personally recommend booking with Maria T, or Nancy! I will continue to be a regular customer here.
