Lowell is the man!! First ever tattoo and he was mad cool. Made the whole experience positive, and after sitting for for 4.5 hours, he killed the piece. From start the finish I was always comfortable. The shop has an awesome vibe and everyone is there is super friendly and positive.
10/10 would recommend. Everyone in the shop was very nice and welcoming. I got tattooed by Scott and he did an amazing job. Just an overall great experience. I will definitely be back again. Thanks guys!
My first tattoo with Randall was great. he’s super cool and very talented. I wasn’t nervous at all. thank you!!!
I had an awesome experience today with my friend , we both called ahead for walkins and were met with friendly service and I got exactly what I wanted. Very comfortable atmosphere and beautiful work everywhere- I recommend this shop ! Thank you to the people there that helped us today.
My dad and I got tattooed by the amazing Mandhi! They were so professional! It was my first tattoo and they made me feel very comfortable! Not only was it amazing work but an overall amazing experience! I do recommend!!
Such a wonderful tattoo shop! I got tattooed by Dustin back in 2018 and Mandhi has done my last two tattoos. All wonderful experiences! Professional, clean, and with incredible results. Definitely planning on getting tattooed here again, and I definitely would like to get tattooed by Jon.
So professional,clean n fun atmosphere. I was a walkin n got exactly what I wanted! Ill definetly be back n prices were more than fair, I was super impressed!!!
Eva is a great professional Artist willing to work with me very capable skilled hands very compassionate . Never doubt her because shes a woman you were wrong I stand by her 💯 percent . Eva Im coming back for the 2nd Re-Ink Job to get re-used to the stinging part of tattoos.
The artist listens to the type of design u want & where u want it. Gives suggestions on the design of your tattoo. Danny provided an ease in his vibe talking story the only pain I had was the upper shoulder which didnt last long. Im thinking of a flower lei to extend to my tattoo in front of my chest .
Very professional, very clean, very good work! Cant say enough about how awesome the folks here are! Ive gotten work done from them in the past and the artwork is as crisp as the day I got it! Great shop with great artists!
I went to Divine Machine for my first tattoo and could not have been happier. Lowell was always super nice in our exchanges and Zach was very patient and understanding knowing it was my first experience. He did a great job. Will definitely be back hopefully for another! Plus, the shop overall had a really good vibe. Thank you!
Called to get a tattoo on during my overnight trip and really didn’t think it could happen due to time and being a walk-in. To my surprise they got me right in and can I just say I’ve never had a better experience getting a tattoo!!!! Joel did an AMAZING job! He works very fast and my tattoo came out EXACTLY how I wanted it. He’s very professional and helped me get the design I wanted to perfection. I live a little over 2 hours away, but I will be traveling for any further tattoos. I would recommend anyone to go here!! Thank you guys for the great experience it really made my trip the best!!
Followed Marcus to the shop and am hooked. The shop has a great atmosphere and is welcoming with great designs all around and an awesome location. I always feel comfortable and enjoy the experience. Marcus Mancini is also 10/10, he did my first tattoo and has done all of mine and my partners since. He’s super easy to work with and does amazing work!Great shop, great people! Need I say more?
I wish I could give negative stars. I Would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. Joel wasted my time! Forget the fact that it was an hour and a half drive both ways, thats my choice by selecting this shop. The fact that I was going for a full sleeve, provided details of what I wanted and even told him it was a partial cover up didnt seem to matter. My appointment was scheduled for over a month and never once did I receive a drawing of what the tattoo would potentially look like or a phone call or email. Nothing. No contact. When I showed up is when Joel decided to tell me what he drew wouldnt work and he would never agree to do a cover up. Unfortunately for him I have the emails. Dont waste your time or money here!
Fantastic Experience! I had Zach as my artist and he did a great job! I got an outline of a largemouth bass and it looks perfect! Quick and easy experience. This was my first tattoo and felt very comfortable with the place and can’t stress enough how clean it is!
Excellent experience. We did a walk-in and got in immediately. The artists created our design exactly as we envisioned it and Zach did an awesome job. It was very clean and had a great atmosphere. Definitely would go back. Very impressed.
This shop is amazing, I tell anyone wanting a tattoo to stop here first. All the artists are really talented and will do any style of tattoo you could imagine. I’ve been working with Marcus Mancini for the past few months a full body suit, and it’s already an amazing piece. Marcus is really open and receptive to your ideas, listens to them, and adds to them to create an amazing piece of art. I look forward to my monthly visit, where I chill in the shop and get tattooed by Marcus. Not only is Marcus an amazing tattoo artist, he’s a really easy going chill guy to talk with while you’re getting tattooed. Can’t wait to see how great this suit looks when it’s finished.
Love love love this place. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. I had 3 tattoos done here over the summer, the most recent one was done by Kaitlin and was easily the best tattoo experience Ive ever had. She was absolutely fantastic, so patient with me and the tattoo turned out better than I had imagined. I will be back many more times, and would highly recommend Divine Machine to anyone!
I had a tattoo I really put time and value into. Like from the quote, all the way down to the font. So a relative recommended to me that they would do a great job; based of off seeing her tattoo, I was impressed... but, shortly after I had scheduled my appointment, they had assigned me an artist; I mean dont get me wrong, the artist was a nice guy throughout the process, but unfortunately he did a disappointing job on my rib tattoo. I just got it like a week & a half ago, its ugly, i tried to make it work in my mental, but ultimately Im really mad at myself & I already want to get it removed.!
Menter was incredible, and Martha was super accommodating. They were both fun to talk to and joke around with and make you feel more comfortable the entire time youre there. I dont have many tattoos, but I can confidently say Menter was the best artist Ive ever had. If I could give more stars I would!
Divine Machine is the THE place to get tattooed in Buffalo. Every artist and staff member is incredibly kind and accommodating, both in person and over the phone. The vibe of the shop cannot be beat, making it easy to feel comfortable and calm any pre-tattoo nerves. Special shoutout to Mandhi, who designed and tattooed a fairly large traditional bird and flower design on my stomach/ribs. Mandhi is easy and fun to talk to, understanding of any nervousness, makes it clear that there is no pressure to get anything you dont want or arent ready for, and is very willing to make sure the design is in the perfect spot and just how you want it. Absolutely love my tattoo and the whole experience was amazing. Thank you to everyone at Divine Machine!
Called to make an appointment. Said they could take us today because it was a simple drawing. Apparently, it wasn’t. The lines are all zigzag. It is nothing like the picture that was sent to them. The first three tattoos from here were really great, but now they are not doing so hot. Don’t know if it was a rush job because so much is going on or they hired other people because they couldn’t keep up with demand, but it was not good.
Eva Huber is spectacular! She understood exactly what I wanted and a really pleasant person overall, you can tell she is very passionate about her work. She was focused and did a wonderful job on my tattoo. I was a little hungry after spending a few hours in the chair and even sacrificed a couple snacks to keep me going. If you’re looking for a nice high quality tattoo email her! at [email protected]
I went to Eva Huber and she was AMAZING! I got a coverup on a decade old tattoo I thought there was no coming back from. Eva is an amazing artist, provides great customer service, and is a blast to chat with. Thank you again Eva!!
This is one of if not the best Tattoo shop on Buffalo NY. Chris is incredible and his realism style tattoo is well worth the wait and money. The place is clean and classy. I trust the artist to have creative freedom and I am always overly happy with the results. I get compliments all the time on their work.
Ive been going to see Marcus Mancini for years and he truly never disappoints. Not only is he an amazing artist, he actually listens to what I want and he always puts his own creative spin on it which I love. If you are looking for a trustworthy artist he is your guy.
Went in with a rather strange request and Danny was able to hook the tattoo up better than I had pictured it. We also bonded during my time getting inked. He was a cool dude and a definite badass. I will be back again the next time I am back in town.
Ive been tattooed at Divine Machine multiple times over the past few years and I have always been happy if not delighted with my experiences and the quality of work Ive received. The shop is clean, the artists are talented, and everyone is very nice. Ive been recommending Divine Machine for years and will continue to do so.
The artists occupying Divine Machine are some of the best in Buffalo. From personal experience, Neal Koch and Chris Allen do amazing work and Id recommend them to anyone. Id also suggest this shop to anyone looking for a realistic detailed portrait, but they have an artist for just about any style or taste. Everyone is really friendly and inviting which creates a comfortable environment.TL;DR: Clean shop, friendly talented staff, 10/10 would get tattooed there again.
This local tattoo shop has been my go to place for the last 3 years. Every artist there is so dedicated to the industry and artistry of the experience from start to finish. I have been to 3 out of the 7 artists and am planning repeats and even appointments with who I havent been to yet. (Thank you stimulus!) Each tattoo I have from DMT makes me happy and proud of my own skin. Thank you DMT! I’m going to collect a living art piece from ya’ll!
*this experience is old but it has always stuck with me.So it was my first tattoo and it was very meaningful to me because a friend had helped me with the design. It was a bunch of trees that wrapped around my ankle. I had done some research online and decided on an artist at divine machine but I forget which one because when I walked in to ask to make an appointment with them a different artist was standing there and insisted the style was in his range and that I dont need to ask anyone else (it was not. I wanted fine detail and he was a neotraditional artist) so I booked the appointment anyways gave him print outs of the design and he told me he would sketch something up for my visit so that I could see he could at least draw what I was looking for. The day of the visit comes around and I arrive 10 minutes early but that didnt matter because my artist had someone else come in at the same time and told me they wouldnt take too long it was just a small tattoo. So I wait and finally its my turn to go back to the chair. Only then does he tell me he never got around to drawing the design but hes good to go, we can just start with no stencil. Ok... so I let him try the part of the design that was just 2 lines that wrapped around my ankle. He traced them with a rubber band and went straight to tattooing. They were horribly uneven so when he told me he didnt need to draw the rest with a sharpie first at all he could just freehand the whole tattoo with the gun. Well I noped right out of there. Told him it hurt too much and that this was fine for my first go. Paid the deposit on the rest and never went back. Im sure he does great work on people who want tattoos in his style but I adamantly told him I wasnt in the shop for his art but another artist he was just too cocky to let me get the tattoo I wanted rather than the one he wanted the money for. Best decision I ever made leaving that place with an unfinished tattoo. I knew I found the right place for me when I went into another shop looking for a specific artist but while showing them the design that said I can certainly do that but have you seen *another artist theres work, she would do a great job with this its right up her alley. And it so was, what a lovely tattoo I have now. she had to do was cover up the lines the previous dude messed up but still did a great job of it.
Great staff! Everyone was very nice and extremely helpful, shop minimum is $80 so not too bad, walk-ins are accepted which is great! Would recommend and would come again :)
My guy Scott Sonners is hands down the best!! Never ever ever disappoints!! This one here we just started. It’s definitely on its way to my favorite. Thank u Scott ❤️
I go to Marcus Mancini and I always leave with a tattoo that’s way more beautiful than I expected! He’s done all 4 of mine and draws exactly what I’m looking for and always points me in the right direction with placement and details. If you’re looking for an intricate and delicate tattoo you’d be over the moon with Marcus’s work.
If I could give more stars, I would. I walked in without an appointment, and the artist (Devin) Drew up a design on the spot and got me in right away. He was so nice, talked to me about the whole process, and got me out quickly. The shop is clean and well lit. I will be back again soon for another!
I was immediately made to feel welcome and comfortable. The staff is friendly, open-minded, supportive, professional, and extremely talented! I really dont see myself having work done anywhere else! :-)
Met Chris at the tattoo convention in Niagara Falls, so I started following their page on facebook. They announced tattoo removals, so Im currently getting one removed. The shop felt nice, clean, friendly staff. Its in an odd place, hard to really get to, though. My only complaint.
My favorite tattoos come from here. Staff very knowledgeable. I would like to recommend if you have an idea for a tattoo trust them with guiding you to what makes most sense. Even if it isnt what you have in mind all the way, its best to let professionals such as them help the customer develop a coherent product.
Have gotten several tattoos here. Great atmosphere, excellent artists, can’t ask for anything more. I don’t see myself going to another shop in Buffalo anytime soon.
Kaitlin did an awesome job on my tattoo! She was kind and patient with me seeing as it was my first tattoo. I would completely recommend her to any one. I cant wait to go back to see her for more!
Fantastic establishment, employed by wonderful people. My tattoo was done by Joel Menter. I cannot stress how perfectly he captured what I was looking for.Clean equipment, safe practices, and confident/highly skilled artists make Divine Machine Tattoo a place id happily recommened to anyone
The entire staff was awesome we were walk-in and had to go about our day after giving them our info. They got us in with Eva at the end of the day and she was wonderful! HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Damn they mustve deleted my review..... went into this shop for the first time. Was sitting waiting for over an hour past my appointment time. And a few of the tattoo artists were talking about how they had the flu... One guy said hes had it and gave it to the other tattoo artist. But he needed money so he didnt care and has been coming in and tattooing for a couple of days with the flu. One guy walked out as he over heard them aswell. 3-4 of them were all talking about how they were sick and 2 of them had the flu. and just laughing and joking about it because they needed money. All of them were coughing. Some girl came in for an appointment too and one of they guys that said he had the flu went and started tatooing her. Could a shop be more unprofessional? Not even sure that is legal. Do not go here. This was back in april but they mustve got my review deleted. Go somewhere else trust me.
Listened carefully to what I wanted and made sure I was going to love it. I had the owner and he drew something up for me and told me if it wasnt what I wanted he would pass me onto someone else in the shop. Honest, clean, friendly. Great place.
This place is freaking awesome, awesome staff. loved getting to hang with everyone and getting work by Jon. Brilliant artists all around.
Best tattoo parlor in Buffalo hands down. Extremely friendly folks who are excited to work their craft.
Marcus is a truly amazing artist here his precision and attention to detail really can’t be found anywhere else in buffalo - I have gotten 4 tattoos done by him including a full sleeve and have had a really great experience every time
Awesome experience. Amazing talent. Clean and comfortable environment. Great people! My go to tattoo shop.
Ive been going to Marcus for seven years now. His creative approach has always be accomitading to whatever I am thinking. Its great to see him doing great in his own space.
Fast and friendly ☺️ cant wait to go again.
Jae did my work and i will def be going back to him to get more. Clean professional atmosphere and friendly artists. Oh and i got lucky enough to meet a skateboarding dog!
This shop is highly unprofessional. The staff was rude and unhelpful and the place was beyond hot inside. I went in to try and schedule an appointment with an artist and was told he had no bookings for a few months and that even if he did it depends if he feels like doing it. They tried to force some mediocre artists on me. When I insisted on the one artist, all I got was come back in a few weeks and try again. Would not recommend this place to any one.
Dustin was amazing, super friendly and was able to take me as a walk-in. Can’t recommend them enough! If you’re looking for a clean friendly place this is where you should go! :)
My artist whos name was Scott I believe did a very lazy job on my tattoo which was a simple quote. A couple of the letters are crooked. It doesnt look terrible but Im not happy with it. Ill be taking my business elsewhere for a touch up.
Rude workers. Garbage line work. Awful shading. First tattoo and I hate it. Im honestly getting it removed because I cant stand looking at it every day. Customer service is a joke. If you like the artists there you must have low standards.
I recommend NO ONE to get tattooed by Zach Zahn at Devine tattoos. I have never experienced such horrible customer service or gotten a tattoo this terrible.The tattoo I wanted was very simple: the outline of an ice cream cone.Zach told me he could not make the tattoo as small as I wanted even though I have seen multiple tattoos of this kind that are much smaller, and have much finer detail, done by other artists. He was rude the entire time and made me feel like an inconvenience when I was trying to figure out where I should have the tattoo placed.The quality of the actual tattoo is HORRIBLE, as Zach couldnt even tattoo a straight line or align the scoops on my ice cream cone—EVEN THOUGH IT WAS STRAIGHT ON THE STENCIL. Mind you, I was being completely still throughout the entire process so it was not due to any shakiness. When the tattoo was complete, Zach rushed me out of there stating that he had another client.After seeing the terrible job he had done, I emailed him in a very professional manner addressing my concerns. He told me that he didnt appreciate my attitude (gave him no attitude) and that the reason the tattoo turned out the way it did was because “I was jittery and that I was unsure of the tattoo the whole time” and told me that i could “come get my money back” because he did not “care to tattoo” me again.I never received an apology, and had the blame put on me. He gave me my refund, however, when I asked for my tip back he didnt give it to me. Sad, incompetent and unprofessional!Brrr.
Very clean, courteous, friendly service, tattoo artist are the best, Marcus is so darn good, and detailed, visionary. Love his artistry!!!
I see Marcus, he’s an amazing artist and I always leave absolutely stoked on how my tattoos comes out. Super cool guy!
This shop is top-notch. Joel is a true professional. The only people I trust with my skin.
Best place to come get your body tattooed! Very clean and wonderful artists. Zach is fantastic!
Scott dos amazing work, did myself, my wife and our best friend. Cant wait to go back for more!
Awesome shop. Walked-in, Dustin drew up exactly what I wanted, and was reasonably priced. Super clean place, great staff.
Extremely clean. Engaging staff. Joels work is excellent. Definitely going back!
Great atmosphere, amazing artists, and wicked tunes. I cannot emphasize enough the quality for the price, more than worth it!
Best place. Scott was really nice too and made the 2 hours a lot more pleasant. Very clean place too.
First class all the way... Joel Mentor did a great job on my tattoo... very easy to work with
Best tattoo experience so far , friendly staff , amazing artists and overall great experience
Love this place but wont rush in there next time because I got a traveling tattoo artist and my tattoo sucks, its like a cartoon
Joel gave me a wonderful tribute tattoo to my grandchildren....Im very happy with it!
Been going there for years. Jake Anderson Dustin Lovell. And 4 to 5 other great artists.
The Beatles will always have my back now! Thanks Joel! You rock 🤘👅🤘

Did a cover up here! And did an awesome job! I cant thank them enough!
