Om Nails and Spa

Nail salons along the Upper East Side keep the neighborhood polished, one manicure at a time. Om Nails and Spa fits neatly into that rhythm, offering the usual lineup of gel polish, acrylic extensions, pedicures, and waxing services. Dip powder and silk wraps round out the menu, giving regulars a few extra options when the usual routine feels stale.

Around 1st Avenue and 82nd Street, the block hums with the kind of steady foot traffic that keeps small storefronts busy. You’ll find the salon at 1584 1st Ave, New York, NY 10028, sandwiched between a dry cleaner and a coffee shop—convenient for anyone already running weekend errands. The location makes it easy to slip in for a quick touch-up or a longer session without straying far from the usual circuit.

Walk-ins are common, but slots fill quickly on weekends. A quick call to (212) 288-8098 can save a spot, especially if you’re aiming for a specific technician or time. The phone line picks up during business hours, so there’s no need to guess whether someone will answer.

For directions, the map keeps it simple: head to the corner of 1st and 82nd, look for the awning with the lotus logo, and you’re there. The stretch of 1st Avenue here feels less touristy than midtown, more neighborhood than spectacle—just the right vibe for an hour spent off your feet.
