Ink Capital is so professional. Once you walk into the establishment you can tell its an environment that is protected and so very clean.The experience is one of a kind. Either movies on a big screen while you casually relax or awesome music playing.Mario is the most amazing person. Professional but so fun and relaxing to be around.If I could give this place 10 stars Id be the first to sign up!AND the work I had done was way way more than I thought possible. His lines and detail were freaking amazing. He nailed it beyond my expectations!
I got My first tattoo a few months back and Mario was awesome! He was more expensive than some others in the area, but you are paying for the skills and experience. Will definitely be going back soon for my next tattoo.
Mario is an amazing tattoo artist, clean, professional, great energy. As soon as I met him I knew I was going to have a good experience. Turns out it was fantastic, my wife and I both got large tattoos. Super happy with both, we both will definitely be back. Dont listen to these haters, he has a good touch and makes sure your comfortable. Couldnt be happier with the whole experience. Thanks so much Mario!
Martez Cox did a phenomenal job. Not only did he execute what I visioned, he has amazing customer service. His personal art work on the wall is amazing and gives your 👀 something cool to look at. I highly recommend that you go check him out & even participate in his paint class sessions that he offers. 5 Star Guy and a 5 Star Rating.
Loved this place! We had Brian and he did an awesome job and got us in last minute for a couple of walk ins which we really appreciated. The girls who greeted us as we came in were so friendly and the atmosphere of the shop was great..we will definitely be coming back!
This place is an absolute joke. Do not waste your time or money! Don’t even know how anyone can make money when they’re constantly canceling appointments right before you have to be there!! No consideration or respect for others!! Not Everyone lives in Peoria! 😡
I received 2 tattoos by Cenzie. She is super sweet and beyond talented!Mario (the owner) greeted us as we came in, and made sure we were all set and everything was perfect. Currently planning my next appointment. Definitely give them a shot if you’re in need of some new ink!
Seen this happen to multiple people! This place is a scam including the artists. Still have an unfinished tattoo and artist never gave me a refund for it. My tattoos all have problems and its absolutely crazy that this is a reoccurring problem. DO NOT SHOP HERE!
Hands down THEE BEST ARTIST around. Marios talent is unmatched! Ive had 9 different pieces done by him now. My biggest regret is the fact that Ive gone to several other artists before I discovered him. The atmosphere he creates during your appointment is so great, making it a much better all around experience. Knowing how busy & booked out he is, I always make sure they know I can be flexible with whatever slot they can give me. Absolutely planting my feet with Mario as my tattoo artist knowing I wont find better anywhere else. Netflix or a whole vibe with whatever Playlist hes got going on? Come on. Booking anywhere else would be a mistake. Thank you, Mario, for doing an amazing job on all my pieces! Id give you 6 stars if I could!😜
I visited and got a tattoo from Angel. He was amazing from start to finish. Love my new piece! He’s definitely an up and coming artist forsure
Mario freakin rocks! My new tattoo is gorgeous! I love it. The shading and the depth is phenomenal! Such a talented artist! Made my 20th anniversary one of the best anniversaries! You are the best Mario, Thank you!
Had rj very patient gotta full front neck piece couldn’t be more excited with the work💯.
Mario is absolutely a piece of garbage requiring his employees to work 100 hours per week. This is modern-day slavery. Nobody should support this.
Such precision and focus on artistry. Thanks Mario and staff!
Best tattoo shop I’ve ever been to in Peoria IL. Very friendly tattoo artists. Very welcoming ; very knowledgeable. I definitely will be back to do business with them!Alexx is always amazing.. weLove our new tattoos !Update : I’ve now went back for like 13 tattoos I love going here so friendly always a chill vibe. Great music , the artist are always friendly.Best tattoo shop in Peoria hands down !
Such an incredible talent. Mario ‘TK’ is so patient and professional. He gives off such a cool vibe which makes all the difference when sitting for 7+ hours. His talent is amazing and if you go check out his FB or Insta pages you’ll see the quality. It is nice to finally have someone I trust completely to ink anything on me and have absolute faith it’ll be amazing. I’ll share a pic of a piece he did for me. I could not believe the detail. As for the other reviews about him doing poorly or not being available to do the tattoo, ignore that ish. He had just moved his studio to a large building and wasn’t informed they locked the main doors at 8:30. He’s human. To bash him and leave 1 star ratings is a reflection on the individual’s irrational sense of entitlement. Unfortunately the world is full of those types of people. But enough about them, check out what he did for me. I love it!!
Tonight, my friend and I were tattooed by JoJo Jackson. The shop, and her area were very very clean and sanitary. She was good at encouraging me thru the session & keeping me calm. Her work is very clean, exactly what you ask for, & beautiful. She is professional, good at putting your idea into real art & creating something you’d love for a lifetime. You can tell she puts her time & heart into her work/art. I’d recommend JoJo for anyone looking for a good artist, a visionary, and someone who is professional, clean, & passionate about their work!
Mario is an awesome tattoo artist and did a great job with my tattoo and checking to make sure I was ok while doing it. The only downside is I wish I can contact him personally for questions when needed concerning aftercare but overall I love it! I will definitely be returning for another one❤️
Mario davis never finished tattoo made over 10 appointments in a year and he kept canceling them
I (really) LOVED my tattoo by Mario. So much so I wanted to get more work done by him. I have (no joke) been trying to contact the shop for A YEAR to get back into him. Ive tried msging & calling. I got a txt a cpl months ago that I thought might lead to some where but then nothing. I honestly do not want to go anywhere else but to get in contact and get an actual appointment is A NIGHTMARE!! Im hoping this review gets someone to reach out. Its not Mario dropping the ball bc Im sure hes leaving the scheduleing to his assistants. Some one pleeease get me an appointment w Mario. Im free anytime, any day.* For this reason I can only give 3 stars.But Mario is 5 stars.
EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL!! Waited over 5 hours to get a tattoo. Multiple people kept lying about the time … “I’ll be ready in 10 minutes” , “I’ll be ready for you in 25 minutes” all of that turned into over 5 hours. I had been waiting since 7 am and there were ONLY two people in front of me ( receiving line tattoos ) Even when they finished the people before me I still waited and received NO service at all. I will never try this shop again. The customer service is TERRIBLE.
2nd tattoo by Ant and ready to go for more by him! Hes clean, professional, funny, and an overall amazing artist! Absolutely go show your support! He deserves it!
Amazing people, great vibes! Mario is probably the nicest, most welcoming Artist I’ve ever met.! Not to mention he is amazing. Walked in was greeted immediately, we laughed sang country music and got an amazing tattoo what more can you ask for? I highly recommend this shop 1000% to everyone.
Mario davis did an amazing job id def recommend. Great vibe and beautiful work I will be coming back definitely.
This place is a scam!!!!!! They took $300 deposit for some special that they were doing then continuously rescheduled my appointment for a period of 8 months and now nobody is replying to me. It’s a shame a good artist like Mario runs such a scam of a company. If this happend to you, keep all the proof then sue in small claims.
Scheduled an appointment a few weeks ahead of time. Appointment was scheduled for 11 am. The morning before they text me to confirm appointment for 12 pm. I told them it was at 11, but I guess 12 was fine. Then Mario (the tattoo artist) strolled in 20 minutes late (really an hour and 20 min past the original appointment), like it was all fine and dandy. He then proceeded to walk right past us and not even acknowledge that we were there. He was too busy flirting with the receptionist to care about his work. He was sitting behind the desk the whole time and at 1 pm (2 hours late at this point) I finally said no we’re going to leave. He acted surprised that we wanted to leave and not stay for the tattoo and that he had “just finished” drawing up our tattoos. No, that is something you should have at LEAST been on time to do, or early. Any other artist I’ve been to has ALWAYS had the tattoos drawn up and ready before I come. He stated he always draws the tattoos up at the time of the appointment. I can’t imagine this would be the case as if someone wanted an intricate tattoo that could take hours. Absolutely WILL NEVER come back here and it was a huge waste of time. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY HERE!!!!
Mario was absolutely fantastic. Took his time to make sure our tattoos were exactly what we wanted, as they were very special remembrances for my Mom who passed away. My tattoo is beautiful. I couldnt be happier.
Ant was our tattoo artist, his work is great! Really recommend getting yours done by him
Mario was an amazing artist. So welcoming and friendly. The shop is very cool and makes you feel reallu comfortable. Good aesthetics and i ended up with a 10/10 tattoo.
Got my second tattoo in 10 yrs done here and Chauntell was awesome.Had to edit my review. The apprentice was great. Owner sucked, was kind of rude. Took me 3 tries to get in due to the shop not being open during regular business hours. He later fired apprentices with no refunds.
You can’t get ahold of anyone for weeks. I messaged and called multiple times and didn’t hear anything until the day of my appointment that mu appointment was going to be an hour late. That ended up turning into 3 hours late… I asked for a refund and said I didn’t want the service anymore due to the terrible organization of the business. Still haven’t received my refund. Now I’m out $450 and getting ignored.
I absolutely love my tattoo. Ms. Crystal was amazing. I will definitely go back soon to get more.
I’ve gotten 95% of my work by him, he may be busy, but there’s a reason for that. He’s fantastic at what he does.👌🏾 I recommend. Patient is key for the best artist
Go get your tattoos from Ant!! Best service and very good quality! Will definitely be going back!!
Brittany is an amazing up and coming tattoo legend and Mario is also very talented. Im sure anyone who loves his style, will also be very happy with a tattoo from him as well. Keep it up InkCapital
This shop is Amazing!! I love Anthonys creativity... Two tatts down, many more to go!!!
Came here during their fundraiser with a friend for bff tattoos. Even though we only had a vague idea of what we wanted Brittany had such great artistic vision she designed us a piece right on the spot in literal minutes and we left totally loving our pieces!!
Decent streamline clean and solid work!
Shop has great staff! Clean...really great atmosphere. I took advantage of the apprentice special - and Bailey Brown did a great job!! I WILL be going back for more!
Chris carrell is an amazing tattoo artist. I recommend him for anyone who is wanting new ink. He takes his time and does exactly what you ask for. He goes above and beyond!
My buddy Mario eorks there he did 2 cover ups he is amazing
Amazing place to go! Amazing vibes! Shoutout to Ant! I loved my tattoo!
Got a small tattoo done today and they were amazing! Excellent hospitality and very nice looking store I will be back!! Thank you bailey and the rest of the ink capital crew!!
Chris gave me my first tattoos and they awsome had did a great job highly recommend him made it a great experience for me when I was there I cant wait to schedule with him again
Very professional. This was my first tatoo. My artist walked me through every step.
Really this is what you let walk out you’re shop wow
I didnt get a tattoo here personally but my friend did while I watched her baby in the lobby. The dude that was there didnt mind we had a baby with us and did a really good job with my friends tattoo
Had an appointment for a tattoo. First was told appointment was at 11am, then 12pm. The tattoo artist, Mario, walked in 20 minutes late, didnt acknowledge us, and instead of getting to us he proceeded to just sit and talk to the receptionist. We then said we were going to leave (1pm at this point) and at that point he said he was ready for us....2 hours late for the appointment.
Mario is very professional and a really awesome tattoo artist. Will definitely be going back..
Mario did a really good job on my tattoo. Clean, skilled and professional with me the whole time.
Best atmosphere and quality for a tattoo shop. I had fun and felt comfortable. The work was amazing!!!
Rude, unprofessional, arrogant - to say the least. Please take your time in considering your choice for a professional, considerate and reliable artist. Do not waste your money here.
Great atmosphere, gifted tattoo artist (Banded Ant)!
Very good talented artist Im good at tattoos but it is work good shop good atmosphere clean tools love the artwork thanks Mario
Great environment, great work. Mario is one of the best artists Ive met!
Beautiful inside. Very clean. Nice atmosphere.
What kind of business doesnt answer their damn phone? Supposed to be open, called for 20 minutes straight- no answer. You should probably work on paying attention to that.
Plan on getting more
Mario is a great tattoo artist! Love his work!
Jenna was awesome! I would recommend this business to all my family & friends.

Clean shop, friendly and talented artists. Will for sure be back again and again for more tattoos
