Testimonials

★★★★★ 5/5

My fiancé and I decided to get a tattoo while visiting San Antonio from Minnesota. We searched this tattoo shop and were very satisfied with the sketches. Javi was my fiancé's artist and Osmanny was mine. They were both very professional and nice. Harvey kept us entertained and made us feel very welcomed. Definitely recommend!

★★★★★ 5/5

I got my nose pierced here about a year and a half ago, and I came back to get my second lobes. I love the atmosphere here, it’s always very welcoming; and it’s very clean and they’re very careful. I trust that they have your best interest, and the jewelry is beautiful. I always love coming here for jewelry or piercings.

Great experience! We came in from out of town as walk-ins and got in very quickly. Harvey at the front desk is SUPER nice and helpful. We got tattooed by Remy and Jesus. Excellent work, clean lines, professional, very clean and welcoming shop. Highly recommend.
