Can’t say enough about Jake’s amazing artistry in designing & completing my American Traditional cardinal! He captured my beloved late Grandmother’s spirit so beautifully. He made me comfortable and at ease - while keeping a great convo rolling through the experience. All around outstanding professional. Can’t wait until my next trip to Cali! Highly recommend to those seeking true old school traditional ink like we do in our Navy family!

Recently came in to re-open my septum piercing but ended my night before going underway with a new tattoo and piercing. Everyone in the shop was friendly and Eddie did an amazing job with the last minute silly goose tattoo. Definitely will be trusting him with more random tattoos in the future and hopefully something bigger and better.

Got my first tattoo here! Eric my artist was amazing, he listened to my ideas and helped make something I was proud to have on my body. He was really patient and reassured me through the whole process, even when I needed to take breaks he was really comforting and understanding. These are some really good people here and I’m glad that I came her for my first tattoo experience!

I wanted to get a second lobe piercing on both ears and just walked-in without an appointment Saturday afternoon. Had a great experience with Danny; he was super nice and efficient while ensuring any questions I had were answered. Price was also very fair compared to other piercing shops I’d gotten a quote from. They also had a nice selection of titanium grade jewelry included in the price of the piercing. I was out in 15 minutes with a virtually painless piercing. I’ll definitely be returning for my next piercing as it was everything I was looking for! Highly recommend Danny at SD Tattoo Company in PB.

Jake was absolutely fantastic! My sister and I came in with a vague idea and he brought it to life. From the second we walked in it felt like we were hanging out with an old friend.

This place was great, I had Danny piercing my one cartilage, and my second lobe piercing. Danny did a great job, I was nervous, and had me take deep breaths, and made sure all of the earrings where going to say there. The prices are vary reasonable and the jewelry is super cute. Would absolutely recommend!

Eddie talked to me when I was just cruising down the street and was such a cool dude I decided to cancel an appointment for new ink somewhere else and go to him. The atmosphere is dope and they made me feel relaxed the whole time. The leg piece I got is taking a few sessions but the pricing is compared to the work isn’t even close. The work is the top in San Diego and the pricing is competitive across the board with everywhere else. Love these guys and Eddie has became my permanent artist

Review №27

This was my first tattoo and I am loving it! I was visiting San Diego from Alaska and wanted to bring home a piece of it with me because I love it there. My auntie and I stepped in and I was like, “I want a tattoo but I don’t know what”, haha. Bug was very accommodating and kindly shared his art and ideas based off my story. We kept in touch as I thought about it the next few days and I made a consultation appointment when I decided on a concept. I told him I wanted 3 flowers: a rose, forget-me-not, and poppy, and showed him some photos. I knew I wanted it on my forearm, and that was about it. He showed me a style he was seeing in his vision, and I got to watch his creativity get to work. I came back in a half hour while he finished creating the design, and loved it! In addition to being a talented artist, Bug is a good host and a professional. This experience was superb start to finish. Thanks Bug! 10/10

Danny pierced my teen daughter’s nose. He was professional and very personable. Danny walked through everything with my daughter and constantly checked to make sure that she was comfortable. Danny did a phenomenal job and I believe made it the best experience for both of us! As a mom I was just so thankful he was the one we got to do her nose piercing. If we didn’t live out of state I would be a repeat customer for sure!! Best place hands down!

Most flawless easy tattoo experience of my 13 tattoos I have, Jake was amazing and really took time to make sure I had what I wanted as where other shops I have felt rushed and that’s not a great feeling when you are getting something permanent done.The shop is clean and laid back and Jake is a really easy person to talk to as where most artists the conversation feels forced, the work came out great and will definitely be getting more work done soon, check them out!

Been wanting a tribute to my Irish heritage for some time. Was fortunate that Eddie was available when I walked in without an appointment. The studio is very clean and well maintained. Eddie and I worked together to find and select the right design. Eddie was very professional and the whole process from the moment I sat down took less than 30 minutes. VERY happy with the finished product and will certainly go back to Eddie again if I want another and won’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone!!

I had an idea of the tattoo I wanted prior to going but I did not have a good example of it. In fact, the example I brought was far from what I was envisioning in my mind. Eddie did a great job of patiently showing me designs until we found the one that was in my head. I love the result. It’s elegant and artistic and was done with great care.

Took my son to get his first tattoo for his 18th birthday. Best customer service. Jake was amazing with my son and made sure that my son was happy with his tattoo drawing before getting started.

Review №65

I came to SD Tattoo Company bc I wanted a place that did walk-ins since I’m not the type of person who likes to wait for an appointment. Luckily, I arrived right when they opened so Danny was able to take me in quickly. The process of filling out the forms, picking out 3 of my jewelry, and Danny setting up his station took no more than 10 mins. We love an efficient king. When he brought me to the back, he took his time with placement for all 3 of my piercings and was patient as well as attentive to my questions. My friends came along with me so we were all cracking jokes and he matched the vibe which made the experience so much more enjoyable and memorable for me. I would definitely recommend SD Tattoo Company to anyone who wants to be spontaneous and get multiple piercings quickly and at an affordable price.

He’s also great to talk to during the experience, which helps keep your brain busy. We have plans for future pieces and I’m really stoked to have him add on to my collection :)

I was in San Diego for a girls trip celebrating my Bachelorette party! After a horrible experience down the street at a nearby shop where we ended up walking out, we stumbled across San Diego Tattoo Co. Thomas was my artist. As a first timer, I didn’t know what to expect and was so nervous but he was very professional and made this such an easygoing process- he even included some super helpful after-care instructions. I can’t wait to be back in SD to add more ink! Thank you!

This is the second time I come to this place with Ronin to get my tattoo. They’re clean, responsive to customer needs and will accommodate while you’re getting work done. I can come to Ronin, present an idea and he’ll work to bring your idea to life until you feel ready and comfortable with the design. The eye to detail is impressive and I won’t think twice coming to this spot for future tattoos! Thank you!

I had a great experience here and with Niko. I randomly walked in with my sister and baby and wanted to get a scorpion. Niko was very accommodating and super nice and calm. He was cool to me and my sister (who ended up getting a tattoo as well) and my child. He was an awesome artist and I absolutely LOVE the piece I got from him. I will definitely be getting more work done from him! 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND:). Thanks again Niko! Also pricing was fair!

Piercer sucks. Called to talk about purchasing a navel piercing- after discussing options for 10 minutes the piercer shares his professional Instagram for me to send out jewelry items I’m interested in only for him to block and ghost me. Unprofessional and rude. Don’t recommend.

My friends and I came in to get some piercings done; the piercer was on his way out but he decided to do all of our piercings and took his time on each of us! My friend was feeling a bit faint after her piercings and he was really professional, he got her something sugary to eat and drink and made sure we all knew how to take care of our new piercings and that our friend was okay before we left. Id highly recommend this place if youre thinking of getting any piercings done. I personally got my conch done; it was absolutely painless and the placement looks great.

Great experience from start to finish. Danny made me feel welcome as a walk-in, had a good selection of jewelry (and exactly what I had wanted!), was wonderful to work with, and looked at my inspo pictures for the “hidden helix” piercing I wanted. He made sure that the third lobe piercing was spaced right and that the helix piercing fell just right. Practically painless, clean, and friendly. I really appreciated the entire experience. Definitely recommend.

Great spot to get a tattoo at, especially if you get tattooed by Nick Rank!! I have been getting tattoos done by nick for the past 8ish months and he hasn’t failed to deliver a great tattoo. His work is very consistent and the focus he has for his art is incomparable to others. I would check out his instagram @nickranktattoo. I will continue to keep coming in to get tattoos done by Nick!! Once again a great clean shop to go to and if you do end up going in to get a tattoo I would highly recommend going to Nick Rank for your next tattoo!!

Danny was amazing, took his time to make sure they were even and the piercings themselves, now 2.5 weeks later, look really good.Also talked to Ivan about a tattoo.

My husband and I were in San Diego for our anniversary (we live in Arizona) and decided to get matching tatoos to celebrate the occasion. This was my first tattoo! Nick was our tattoo artist and did an amazing job! We showed him a photo of what we wanted and he replicated it exactly.Actually, he made it better by cleaning it up and making the puzzle pieces look like they belong together. The sizes were a little off in the picture. Thanks Nick! We will be back again!!

Danny is the absolute best!! Ive been wanting my industrial piercing for years now and finally worked up the courage to go do it, came in as a walk-in and he was very welcoming. He took the time to judge the anatomy of my ear to decide if an industrial piercing would be best, he took the time to walk me through his concerns and made the whole experience comfortable. The piercing itself was nowhere near as painful as I thought, he was quick and thorough and is genuinely the best piercer I have ever been to. He is definitely the guy to hit up for all your piercing needs!!

I got my first tattoo with the artist Bug at Grimmrose. The whole experience was great! The place was clean and he is super talented. I was a little nervous, but he talked me through the whole process. He was very professional and so nice. He explained what position and size on my ankles the tattoos would look best. (I got a sun and a moon) I trusted his artistic opinion about the shading and layout. The other artists in the shop agreed with exactly what he was saying and made me feel extra confident about getting one. Overall Im obsessed with how they turned out. They are so beautiful!

Cam is super cool, chill dude. The session went by quickly and not as painful as I imagined. He took over the project from another artist and made some last minute changes to the art right before our session that actually turned out great considering the short notice.

I went to see Danny at San Diego Tattoo Company after having a bad experience at a different shop in San Jose. He was so knowledgable and kind, and helped me remove the poorly placed piercing from a different shop. I went back to see him a few weeks later to have him redo my upper helix, and it turned out beautiful. The placement was just what I wanted and he was super kind through the whole process. It has been healing great. I am planning to go back to Danny for all my future piercings. Highly recommend!

This is my second year visiting Grimmrose Tattoo. Danny their piercer did a great job in communicating with me clearly and making this a super easy process. I was a bit nervous about my conch and tragus piercings, but thanks to Danny’s care I relaxed fairly quickly. The process was quick, accurate, and safe. Danny was quick to give his professional opinion on location of piercings and I’m so thankful because I love how they turned out! I have complete trust in Danny’s piercings and will return next year for more!
