What day did you go that thursday or friday? Where you a tourist? I'm a regular client and I get my full sets done there. Was it a rush job or did they take there time. Was it doen in 45 minutes or an hour. Were you referred by a hotel? I normally go Monday or Wednesday. Did you pay before the polish or did you dry under the dryer

Pros: good service

Cons: no parking

This was without a doubt the worst manicure and pedicure I have ever paid for AND, by the way, the most expensive. Nails were shaped unevenly, cuticles were not completely removed, hang nails were not removed correctly, polish was applied sloppily and within hours of leaving the salon, one would have thought it had been three weeks since my last treatment. If I had had my reading glasses with me and could have seen the job they did, I would have either not paid or demanded that they re-do their work on the spot. BTW, while I was there, a gentleman absolutely raved about their massage therapist. Perhaps new customers to stick to that service and skip them for nail work.

Pros: I hear their massage therapist is good

Cons: I didn't come in for a massage

I was nervous as on my way once I learned that this spa is not in the best of neighborhoods. I was warned it may just be a nail spa. And mostly it was. I got a 60 minute massage that was average, but better than I had thought it would be. I also got a pedicure which was nice, with a warm towel, leg and foot massage. My friend had a massage that was not great. Very superficial. And a facial. They do not have a facialist on hand, instead they call her in appointment to appointment. The facial was good too, but this was a first for my friend so she had nothing to compare it to. The overall ambiance was not great. It is definetley a nail salon. You go upstairs for the massage treatments. The massage therapists seemed a bit inexperienced, but mine was overall wonderful. She seemed to be able to find all of my sore and uncomfortable areas. I'm not sure I'd recommend it as the "great" place to go in New Orleans, but it wasn't the worst.

Pros: pedicure

Cons: ambiance, price, massage

A hot stone massage at the Riverside by Rita was one of the best massage treatments I've ever experienced. The Riverside is small, not fancy but clean and can claim true talent and that "feel" a good therapist will have. With many massage experiences to compare all over the country this was one of the best - and though no longer practicing - I am a Licensed Massage Therapist -

Pros: Hot Stone by Rita, Clean and cozy, Service and skill

Cons: small
