If I could give 0 stars I would. The girls. Literally children that work here are clearly idiots. Do not know how to run a business. So rude to the customer. We asked if they had time for a manicure. Their response? Umm no. Seriously? There was no one in there! Not come back at this time or how about tomorrow? Just nope. Bubye lol. Also. They were on their phones on the pedicure chairs eating skittles. For real? This is a business that will fail in the next 2 years no doubt. Someone send these children to school to become educated on customer service. Dear lord. Read Less

Just got back from a wonderful pedicure at Sakari.  There was some mix up about the time of my appointment, but they were able to accommodate me anyway.  Mariah was pleasant and gave me a great leg and foot massage.  Would have given a five star if the place were a bit cleaner, but I enjoyed the campy feel with lots of young girls/women and a friendly dog.  Price was comparable with what I pay in Chicago and much less than what I've paid at other nail salons in New Buffalo.  I will definitely go back.

Very overpriced and the owner was extremely rude! All I had was a toe polish change (no pedicure) with no chip polish and I was charged $45! I will not be back.

I'm pretty sure I just paid a girl to paint my nails.  This was not a manicure at all.  AND the price was higher than most places.  I get it, tourist town and its a cute little boutique, but it was NOT worth the extra money.  Back in Chicago burbs I can get an outstanding manicure (with paraffin wax and a back massage) for $12.We called ahead asking if they could fit us in that day.  Four of us, 3 basic manicures and one no chip.  They said no problem, come in at 4 (which I believe was about one hour from their closing time).  We showed up on time and they all seemed annoyed we were there.  Did they not think we would show up?  All of the techs seemed really young and just ready to leave and go out and party.  My nails were probably done in 15 minutes.  They do not accept tip on the credit card, so have cash handy.Needless to say, my manicure was peeling the next day.

I've been to Sakari twice. The first time was great; its small, local, average priced, & the techs spend awhile massaging your feet and legs during the pedicure. However, the second visit I was not so pleased. Upon walking into the salon, I was slapped in the face with the smell of marajuana. So strong it smelled like the employees had just smoked a joint before their morning shift. Not the best impression you want to give to your customers (especially a non smoker). The pedicure I got was good, but what really bothered me was that I watched 4 different women come and go from the pedicure station and never once saw the tubs scrubbed down. The bathroom that the employees and customers use was absolutely filthy as well and there was no soap by the sink! I'm giving this 2 stars for the service because they actually do a good job, but this place definitely needs some work  in the sanitation department. Read Less

I went here with my mother a few days prior to my wedding (which the nail "techs") were aware of. I don't know if it's just me, but do any of the employees have any training? My pedicure looked like I had a five year old do it and I ended up going to a different salon the next day to redo. I would give my no-chip a 5 star review, but I just felt so uncomfortable the whole time I was there. The ambiance is just... off. You could tell most of the girls were young and involved in each other's drama. As someone who lives locally and loves to support local businesses I just can't recommend this place. I definitely recommend going elsewhere for a manicure and pedicure (evolve spa has a great nail tech, but she was on maternity leave before my wedding). Read Less

I feel a bit bad for giving a one star review but I think it's only fair to warn others as I wish I would have been warned. Upon arrival I was told to wait at a table for my manicure. After I sat down the lady who did my nails shook out the dirty towel that was on the table, put it back in place like nothing was unusual, and told me to place my hands on it (not very sanitary if you ask me). I was surprised not to get any hand massage or for my nails to be soaked, she just started scraping away at my cuticles and it was quite painful. In the middle of my manicure the owner's dog came in and all of the workers were petting her and letting her lick them (even though they were all in the middle of painting people's nails). The dog then jumped on my lap and wouldn't get down until I picked her up and placed her on the floor in the midst of my nails being done. Not at all professional. My nailed turned out okay but not great.Overall I found this place very unsanitary and wasn't impressed with the staff. Read Less

Maybe it's just how the Midwest rolls?I've been here a handful of times. The emoji that comes to mind is the one with the straight horizontal line for a mouth. Speaking of emojis, the ambience of this place is that of a fundraising snack bar run by the junior class at a high school football game. If you're looking for efficiency, look further. Your session is likely to last an excruciatingly long time... but not because of care or attention to details. Everyone likes a little iconic small town gossip at the local salon, but frequent pausing for the sake of adolescent babble and/or attempts at middle school-style flirtation with the dude nail tech (whose name I think is Peter, and appears to be the only human being in the place with any concept of work ethic) get old quickly. Nail file poised in the air, slack-jawed and blinky, the number of times my nail tech stared off into space was ALMOST impressive.Not so good with the multi-tasking, these girls.As for the quality of the work, depending on who you get, it's not terrible, but not great either. It's best to be as clear as possible. My recommendation is to speak slowly. And if you want your nails to look pretty for some specific event, go the day of (but give yourself ample time), one day before at most, unless you like the aesthetic of a chipped thumb and/or forefinger on your dominant hand.And if by chance you're feeling nostalgic for your old lunch table in the cafeteria, then this place is totally for you.Ah shit. I almost forgot to mention the Maroon 5... See, I know this is an opinion, and in my own personal hell the music of Maroon 5 cannot be escaped. That being said, these girls seemingly love Maroon 5. If you care for your own well-being and sanity, bring headphones. Read Less

All of the other nail techs were very nice and professional as well! Pros: great selection of nail polish, great massage, relaxing massage, clean polished nails.Cons: they seemed to mix up our 11:30 appointment for 3 girls at 11 and 3 girls at 1pm (there were 6 of us so we wanted to have our pedis done together). Also overall cleanliness could improve (cleaning off old junk from lotion pumps and clean steam towels with no previous stained polish)If I were to come back to New Buffalo I would for sure make a stop back in for their Spa Pedicure!

Rude and dishonest. I have gotten several no-chip manicures from top salons to local hole-in-the-wall salons, and let me tell you this place is not worth your money! No massage for no chip manicure! My first visit: No chip manicure and pedicure. Manicure chipped the second day, as I walked out I noticed bubbling, but of course didn't have additional time to "fix" as  I'd have to remove it etc., I waited a few days to see whether other nails would chip, another did!! I called and they said come in and we will do it for no cost. I came in the following weekend and they couldn't get me in. Then I asked if i came in next week could they honor their word of no cost, they said NOO bc id be paying for a new manicure by that third week anyway. I said to owner- , so you're going against your word and now you're going to charge me, and she said yes in a very rude tone. I said thanks and walked out, she made it seem like I was trying to take advantage of her!! In sum: manicure was horrible, no massage, and not comfortable. Do not go! Read Less

I went to Sakari a year ago, and thought it was okay.  This time I decided I won't go again. There was quite a bit of "mean" talk from my tech to the one at the next station.  She acted like she didn't want to be bothered with me. She was sloppy.  I can still see the polish she "took off" on the side of the nail (next to the new color).  One toe has already chipped.  My manicure has lasted better, although one nail popped off.  I glued it back on.I'm sure there is somewhere better in the area.

I have been coming to Sakari since it opened.  I was so excited to have a nail salon in New Buffalo and when I walked in to see a familiar face from my nail shop in Oak Park, it couldn't have gotten better!  Lisa does a great job with nails as does all of her staff.  The place is clean, the mani/pedis last for a long time and both my daughters and I love to come here when in town.  Last weekend, Peter was a lifesaver.  I was having quite a bit of pain from the start of an ingrown toe.  He was amazing! He did everything that my podiatrist would have done had I been home.  My nail looks great and the pain went away after being cut down a bit. I highly recommend a visit when in town! Read Less

The hand massage felt amazing but as far as the quality of the mani, I would not recommend this place again. The nail filing on each nail was not consistent (i.e. some were shaped round and others more squared)  and the polish was not painted evenly. Read Less

This nail place isn't bad...but it isn't great either.  The girl doing my nails was a little harsh when working on my toes and although they look ok, I feel like I've had much better pedicures in the past.  The manicure was your average run of the mill manicure...except that a couple hours later, the polish was already jacked up.  Also, the staff started vacuuming while there were customers getting their nails done.  There is nothing relaxing or pampering about a vacuum going.  At the end of my experience, I thought it was a little pricey for what was done and ok overall.

Tech was Aloof  and rude ! ... I had pedicure and manicure. I have been there several times and it's hit or miss on quality of care. This last time, I complained. She argued. I paid , left , never to return. I am a New Buffalo resident and can absolutely not recommend them as it's a gamble. Peter is good if you happen to get him. Read Less

Rude and dishonest. I have gotten several no-chip manicures from top salons to local hole-in-the-wall salons, and let me tell you this place is not worth your money! No massage for no chip manicure! My first visit: No chip manicure and pedicure. Manicure chipped the second day, as I walked out I noticed bubbling, but of course didn't have additional time to "fix" as  I'd have to remove it etc., I waited a few days to see whether other nails would chip, another did!! I called and they said come in and we will do it for no cost. I came in the following weekend and they couldn't get me in. Then I asked if i came in next week could they honor their word of no cost, they said NOO bc id be paying for a new manicure by that third week anyway. I said to owner- , so you're going against your word and now you're going to charge me, and she said yes in a very rude tone. I said thanks and walked out, she made it seem like I was trying to take advantage of her!! In sum: manicure was horrible, no massage, and not comfortable. Do not go! Read Less

I went to Sakari a year ago, and thought it was okay.  This time I decided I won't go again. There was quite a bit of "mean" talk from my tech to the one at the next station.  She acted like she didn't want to be bothered with me. She was sloppy.  I can still see the polish she "took off" on the side of the nail (next to the new color).  One toe has already chipped.  My manicure has lasted better, although one nail popped off.  I glued it back on.I'm sure there is somewhere better in the area.

I have been coming to Sakari since it opened.  I was so excited to have a nail salon in New Buffalo and when I walked in to see a familiar face from my nail shop in Oak Park, it couldn't have gotten better!  Lisa does a great job with nails as does all of her staff.  The place is clean, the mani/pedis last for a long time and both my daughters and I love to come here when in town.  Last weekend, Peter was a lifesaver.  I was having quite a bit of pain from the start of an ingrown toe.  He was amazing! He did everything that my podiatrist would have done had I been home.  My nail looks great and the pain went away after being cut down a bit. I highly recommend a visit when in town! Read Less

Had a horrible experience in the past! I took my grandma here to get her nails done after she had open heart surgery and she had a terrible experience. She had a manicure and it looked as of my 8 year old daughter would have done a better job! Had to walk her back in there to have it redone and the girl working there that odd her manicure was very rude for having to redo her amateur paint job. Trying to support their local business was a huge mistake. Read Less

I was not impressed with my manicure service from Sakari. Totally overpriced and my polish chipped while I was still at the salon... The hand massage felt amazing but as far as the quality of the mani, I would not recommend this place again. The nail filing on each nail was not consistent (i.e. some were shaped round and others more squared)  and the polish was not painted evenly. Read Less

This nail place isn't bad...but it isn't great either.  The girl doing my nails was a little harsh when working on my toes and although they look ok, I feel like I've had much better pedicures in the past.  The manicure was your average run of the mill manicure...except that a couple hours later, the polish was already jacked up.  Also, the staff started vacuuming while there were customers getting their nails done.  There is nothing relaxing or pampering about a vacuum going.  At the end of my experience, I thought it was a little pricey for what was done and ok overall.

Great addition to the area! Wish they had a bigger staff b/c it's hard for me to make appointments sometimes b/c of my crazy schedule. They did a great job on the decor. Love it!

Vacationing for the week and was looking to get a much-needed pedicure on a Sunday nonetheless.  Saw Sakari while walking down the main strip -- scheduled an appointment.  What a wonderful surprise when I received probably the best foot/leg message and professional, gentle pedicure I have ever had!!!!  Peter is fabulous---I highly recommend a visit and think I may have to make the trip back up often just to get this treatment that is divine.  Enjoy!!
