Listened to what I wanted, gave several options, took his time added a lot of details, made sure to ask questions throughout the entire process to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted. He made sure everything was clean during the entire ratio process, he changed gloves several times. It took about 2-2 1/2…
What can I say, enjoyed sitting down for some ink with Akim. He has done my sleeve at another shop, and when I heard that he moved and I had an idea for my hand it looked as if I needed to take a trip. The work came out great! And definitely came out the way I wanted it. Akim is a great tattoo artist to work with,…
Thanks for a very well visit will be coming back again, great shop and people!
Good service and good artwork. Really liked this piece as my first tattoo. Recommend 100% David did a good job
David is easily one of the best tattoo artist in the area, sat down with me and drew it out and gave me a great price, I will for sure be coming back here again
I would highly recommend going over here the price was great and the service was beyond amazing they showed great hospitality and were so friendly
I’ve seen David twice, two years in a row now and he was wonderful each time! Extremely steady and gentle hand, I fell asleep both times. If you’re local or have time on your trip don’t hesitate to stop by.
Meeting Mau and getting a tattoo from him was the best part of the 7 months I lived in San Diego. Would recommend him and this shop to everyone! Hope to see you again Mau!
Reggie Was The Goat! Helped the Process Seem Easy and Really Left me Satisfied With The Complicated design I had Asked For. Truly a good time
Absolutely loved my experience! David’s attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction are unmatched. He made the whole process comfortable, fun, and stress free. The final piece came out exactly how I envisioned it. Thank you, David, you’re an incredible artist!

Stopped in San Diego Tattoo Co to watch Mom get a tattoo, then my wife got one so then I got this one, then convinced Dad to get one as well. David was great and made this one come out very nicely. Super pleased with it and the shop was great. Will definitely go back. Thanks David!

I had such an amazing experience at San Diego Tattoo Company, everyone was so nice and my artist was so patient with getting the placement of my tattoo just right. It came out so beautifully and i’m so thankful that I went to this place <3
Amir was extremely professional and really nice. He did an amazing job. His talent and skill definitely stand out!
Great ink artist. Very professional and clean shop.
This was my first tattoo ever and I was getting it on my forearm. I told Sake what I wanted and he made it happen. I can’t lie, I was being super picky about everything I wanted, I asked him to tweak small things about the drawing to make it how I wanted, and Sake was amazing about it. He was super patient with me…
Erick is super cool to talk to and does incredible fine line work!
They were amazing. This tattoo means so much and they nailed it perfectly! I cannot thank y'all enough for the outstanding work ❤️
Walked in not knowing what i wanted and left with a piece i really love ! David and the rest of the shop were really helpful and welcoming. Will definitely be back! (Scorpion piece)
