The Scene

You shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Or, for that matter, a spa by its exterior. Eve's facade may be nondescript, but a faithful mix of locals, walk-ins and the occasional celeb keeps this little salon packed on weekends and after work. A friendly front desk keeps the pace moving, without making spa-goers feel rushed.

The Services

Top-notch (read: superspeedy, thorough and nearly pain-free) waxing is Eve's main game; the clever Date Wax package bundles together a Brazilian and a brow wax for the perfect pre-date primp. Manicures and pedicures (from basic to "Forbidden Fruit") are, dare we say, better than ones we've paid much more for uptown. Facials range from the fast to the luxurious; try the 30-minute "Escape" if you're in a rush, or commit to "80 Minutes in Eden" and leave with an undereye area free of dark circles and puffiness.
