If you're looking for a great tattoo with an artist whose talented and super personable I highly recommend Lance! read more

Went in for a walk in with 2 small custom tattoo ideas. Staff was super helpful and knocked it out quick!

Highly recommend them. My husband has gotten several tattoos here and I went in for one to commemorate my father who passed away. I was terrified and almost fainted. Mikey was so patient with me and I was not an easy client. I made it through and love my art work. It's the perfect reminder of my dad. So glad I did it. Thank you Mikey! read more

Kris is amazing! Found this place on accident- I was having dinner with a friend across the street at Fresh Kitchen and decided to come in and check out the studio. Everyone here is always so nice! They take walk ins, so we went ahead and got on the waiting list. Paperwork was quick and easy! They take cash or debit cards for payment. I asked Kris for a very basic palm tree and he made me the most amazing palm tree! The little line details in this are absolutely amazing. They wrapped it before I left and that stayed on for a few days (per instruction) and then I moisturized it frequently until it was totally healed, about 6 weeks later. Plus he only charged me the shop minimum- $60! I always recommend Kris at Cast Iron to all of my friends looking for a great tattoo artist. Can't wait to come back and get more tattoos from him. read more

So I have a few friends that come here for Mike the tattoo artist and his work is always amazing! Me and my husband decided to get tattoos for His bday today and what a great idea it was. Mike Lugo was awesome, friendly, funny and professional. He definitely made us feel comfortable and welcomed. We told him Exactly what we want and he gave us that plus more. My husband got a portrait of our 2 dogs and I got a compass with water colors. Mike made sure he gave us all the details and told us how the colors will look and work together. We both left from the shop absolutely excited of what we got and how amazing the work was. Thank you so much Mike Lugo for your awesome talent, professionalism, personality and for making us feel welcomed and important. read more

I went in for a walk-in tattoo. The place itself was very clean and had really cool artwork. Lance one of the owners was the one I spoke to. He was so friendly and helped me narrow down to a specific font and sizing and was so understanding about my indecisiveness. Once it was time for the stencil he redid it 3-4 times and made sure it was perfectly straight which any person would appreciate. If you're looking for a tattoo with great line work Lance is the guy! read more

Random decision to get my nose pierced tonight and I'm glad I finally do it! A friend had told me a long time ago that Cast Iron tattoos does $20 piercings on Tuesdays, so my fiancée and I headed down to get our noses pierced. We walked in and were greeted by Ray Jackson, the piercer. He had a group of girls he was attending but did not waste time getting out paperwork started. Once he was done with the group of girls it was our turn. We were cleaned, marked and pierced in less than 20 mins! Thank you so much Ray! We love our new piercings! read more

Recently got a piercing and from start to finish the process was amazing. Felt safe secure and the studio was super clean!!! I got a Prince Albert piercing and the Piercer was super professional. I'll be back for sure ! read more

I've always made this the spot I go to for my piercings (had about 4 piercings done here) because I've had great experiences with Ray and advise all my friends to check them out, especially for their Tuesday special. Since we're in uncertain times, I wasn't sure if they still offered the special and decided to call in before heading there to double check. The boy (I say this because his lack of professionalism and his immaturity) who answered the phone off the bat gave me snarky attitude when I asked if they still offered it. He kept saying "well what do you want to get pierced?" in a demeaning tone, my friend that was in the car with me even looked over and mouthed "wtf". A simple answer to a customer asking that question would be: "we offer $xx for piercings that do not include xxxxx", NOT "well that depends on what you want?" in a snarky attitude. Sad that they employ people like this and let them answer the phone. read more

The piercer is an asshole. He was rude, unprofessional and even cursed at me. Don't come here, it's not worth it at all. It's super shady and they'll also try to rip you off. Save yourself! read more

I have severe anxiety and agoraphobia but I've wanted a tattoo for years. Last year when my grandmother died, it was a huge kick in the tail for me to really work on my recovery. I designed a simple memorial tattoo for her and promised myself I would get it before the first year anniversary of her death. With all of these sensitivities in mind, I was very picky with who I was going to choose to do my piece. A friend recommended Cast Iron to me so I decided to check them out. I was not disappointed at all! Very inviting atmosphere, they made me feel comfortable despite my nervousness. Lance did my tattoo and he was very kind, patient and understanding about my situation. I can't thank him enough for giving me this piece to remember my grandmother. I can't recommend Cast Iron enough and I will definitely be back when I'm ready for my next tat. read more

Great, clean, laid back shop. They will be fully honest with you about what may or may not work even if that may feel like they're being dream assassins. If im going to pay money to put something on your body permanently I rather have someone tell me the truth rather than just bs me and then I end up with a crappy tattoo that won't last. Kris is an amazing tattooer and his line work is super crisp. I HIGHLY recommend him. Especially if you love anything bright and bold. All of the guys at this shop are great and in reading the previous reviews I'm just guessing that these people likely had unrealistic expectations or they're just looking for a deal and this is a legitimate shop not the flea market. Their prices are fair and the work is great. I wouldn't go anywhere else. It's one of the oldest standing shops in Orlando for a reason. read more

When I first started getting tattoos I hopped around to different shops, trying a few out. Then I met a sweet woman who had recently moved to town and told me her husband just opened a tattoo shop. I went in and I've been going there ever since.. for 15 years!! Danny is the absolute best! As a person and as a tattoo artist. His lines are so crisp and clean and his work shows how much pride he takes in giving you the best artwork he can. I get compliments everywhere I go on my ink. I've had a few piercings done here as well and they came out perfectly with safety, cleanliness, and care taken at every step. I love how clean the shop is as well as how friendly everyone is. The portfolios of all the artists and piercers here are full of beautiful stuff. They also occasionally have guest tattoo artists from around the country and that is always a fun option too! read more

I got my nipples pierced here a few days ago and I would highly recommend them! They were very professional and everything was very clean. The piercer was so nice and funny which made the piercing more comfortable for me. All around it was a great experience! read more

Got 4 piercings done with Ray and he was incredibly efficient and professional. He patiently explained all the different earring choices and answered my questions. Ray even got me a soda from the vending machine when I got lightheaded and talked me through the rest of the process. I was in and out in 45 minutes! read more

When I first went here I went to Kelly, I asked for a Traditional Japanese koi tattoo but the lotus to be in the colors of my brothers birth stones, well 3 years later $600 and it was jacked up and not Done! Then I found Lance White via his Fiance and my Hair Dresser. 3 hours later and my leg looks amazing, I am no longer angry with it, i can't stop looking at it. He is doing an amazing job fixing a job he didn't have to do. He's a great guy. Everyone in the shop is really nice and finally I have found the person to finish/start all my other work. Next my full sleeve !! Thank you so much Lance read more

i will never go here again. i have many tattoos and have never had an experience like this one. i went in for a tattoo that is maybe 2 inches in size and was told by many other people i was overcharged. as stating that i've gotten many other tattoos much larger than this one i know how to care for a tattoo and never got an infection. but with this tattoo it looked as if after one day it was already infected. half of the ink completely fell out within a week and chunks of my sun as well. upon speaking to many other artists, the artist that did mine has a history for his work being infected!! a $120 tattoo has now turned into $900 worth of tattoo removal and antibiotics that i had to be on because the infection was that bad. i wish i would have known this before going there. read more

Hi. Went to get piercings....of the nips!!! I was a walk-in. The owner was there I could tell from previous pictures on here. Anyways, I had a short wait Bc 2 ppl were ahead of me. The place looked clean, spacious & I couldn't see anyone actually getting tattooed Bc of the privacy areas so that was also a plus! The owner greeted me nicely & took my info. Then I met Ray. He was the piercer, the got damn man! I was so nervous y'all. I tried not to hyperventilate but I kept shaking my legs. Anyways, we went behind a black separater, I showed him the goods and he tried to calm me down. He gave me a squishy ball but I ended up grabbing the arms of the chairs. He took his time marking, wiping & remarking all while answering the same questions he must get a million times a day. Lol!! I really liked his energy & the fact that he seemed like a perfectionist. So the piercings went smooth! He had me take a deep breath & poked!!! I was calling Ray name like he was my man y'all . It hurt yes, but he was smooth & quick Thank God! My friend went 2 weeks before me & she also said he was excellent! I highly recommend. Thank you Ray!!!!!!! I love them. read more

I went back again and Ray was just as amazing!!! If you get any piercings Ray is your guy. Professional and explains everything to you before and after the process! read more

long story short. I wanted a rose on my back with a black outline recommended by the owner, so the tattoo wont fade. He paired me with Kelly who forgot to even add the black. The tattoo looks horrible and the rose turned into a giant scab that now looks like a wound on my back. Im so angry she messed up something SO simple, ill have to get it completely re done by someone else. Not even worth going in to show them the shitty work they had her do on me. If you're looking to tattoo anything with color ask for anyone but Kelly. Trust me read more

The piercer who did my piercing was very professional and knowledgeable his name is Ray and he was very gentle and made my piercings not painful at all. I plan to go back there for a couple more piercings. The shop was very clean and I felt very welcomed. read more

Went for the $20 special for piercings. Septums are not included on the deal, I got it anyways and Ray was amazing. It was quick and painless and my pain tolerance is on the very low side. Quick service and very informative. Highly recommend and also, always leave a tip! Be a nice person. read more

I walked in trying to get jewelry I was asking questions about selection and the guy was rude over the phone and said to ask the piercer when he's done so I come in to speak with the same person I guess who says he's gonna grab him because he had absolutely no idea how to help me ... or what your typical nose jewelry looks like ... ok then the piercer comes out and being very snarky as well I'm asking if I could take a better look or if he knew what size the ring where because I was pierced with a smaller needle and some jewelry don't fit it was obviously different sizes but I wanted a better look when he just reiterated that they are the same size but couldn't tell me the size gauge of the jewelry??? A professional piercing can't tell me the size of jewelry ???? I just turned my ass around and left first time in here and will probably never ever come back cause seems like no one's knows what's going and the customer service sucks ! read more

I second that! Lance is the man, the last couple of weeks I had 2 piercings done by him and had a couple of friends come to him as well. We were happy with his service because he makes piercings such a smooth experience lol. His work is very accurate and he always ensures the needles are super clean. For those who get ongoing pierced fans who are trying to stay away from those piercings artist that don't measure out the work and do a sloppy job. I recommend Lance! He pierced my daith, and cartilidge very nicely. Thumbs up for precise piercers who have passion for what they do. I believe he does tattoos as well. He's so cool and now my go to piercing guy! read more

I went in yesterday with my friend to get a piercing. We both were nervous and had a few questions. Ray was very nice, patient, and informative through the whole process. He took his time to make sure the piercing lined up and was even. He gave us all the after care instructions. He was very professional, and chill. I certainly recommend this shop! read more

Do not go here for a piercing. I went in on Tuesday to get my septum pierced and not only was the piercer an A-hole, he pierced my nose CROOKED. I should have known something was up by the terrible faces he made at me right after and by the fact that he didn't charge me for the other jewelry that I bought. I got home and noticed it was SUPER crooked and figured I would give it a few days to heal up because maybe my nose is swollen in a weird way. Four days later I am in no pain whatsoever and the swelling is gone and it's still insanely crooked so I went to a different piercer to look at it and he literally said "wow this dude did a terrible job basically you have to take It out and let it heal and get it redone" Not my first septum piercing, I've had it pierced once before and it has been closed for a year and a half. I have several piercings and never had a worse experience Terrrrrrrible attitude and he did a horrible job Like I feel like he didn't want to pierce my septum so he rushed and was a super douche and did a terrible job which is a miserable work ethic and I sincerely think anyone who wants a piercing should go to someone who cares about their job. Thanks for wasting my 50 bucks I guess? read more

Lance was amazing and everyone there also. For my first tattoo I wanted something simple and he created a color I wanted. Educated me the long Term and introduction of tattoos and color ink. He and Patient and accommodating. read more

I lost my dog on June 2 and wanted a tattoo to honor him. I wanted something unique and special. Lance took my ideas and created the perfect design. The shop is spotless and comfortable, and all of the staff were friendly and helpful. This was only my second tattoo (first one was 18 years ago) so I was a little nervous. Lance did a phenomenal job and gave great advice on aftercare to ensure my tattoo will be beautiful for years to come. My new tattoo is only a week old, but it's healing well and looks wonderful. Thanks Lance for being an incredible artist! read more

I will be honest, I forgot the name of the awesome guy who had pierced my ears. I did want to take the time to write a review for Cast Iron Tattoos though. The people here definitely know what they are doing. The shop is VERY well kept and you can tell that they take pride on using sterile practices when it comes to piercings and body ink. Quick, easy, great people to help you get what you need done. Thank you Cast Iron, keep up the great work! read more

Got my septum pierced. They were nice,professional and clean. I wish they had more jewelry options and will probably come back for more piercings. Great place :) overall I would recommend! If you want more jewelers options buy your own before! read more

Great experience with Ray piercing my septum. I had an awful septum piercing done previously, so I did a lot more research to find a quality piercer this time. Ray was quick and gentle. I saw him pierce someone's grandma while I was in the shop, which I thought was super cool. Very happy with my piercing and I'll definitely go back to get my next! read more

My sister and I went in for walk-in piercings with Ray and I'm so happy we did! He was friendly, clean, professional, and he did an amazing job with the piercings. Even though it was busy he was super upbeat. The staff were all friendly too and we felt welcomed. Sometimes you go into a tat shop and get weird vibes but this one is awesome. Thank you Ray!! read more

Love this place! Great customer service and care. I've gotten two of pieces done here and I am not disappointed. I will definitely be giving them my money again read more

Stopped by with my wife to get a memory tattoo to represent Pulse Orlando. We didn't got to Trinity Tattoo because the line was so long that is wrapped around the building although the tattoos they were offering were $50 and the money was being donated to the families and victims of the Pulse Orlando shooting. So although I think my tattoo is ok I think it was over priced and it sucks they just didn't donate the money being that a lot of people kept walking in to get the same tattoo. They charged me $80 and my wife $80. I think my wife's was worth $80 but not mine plus my tattoo is not super great because (it's a pulse) the lines don't really connect and it already looks faded and I just got it. Years ago maybe like 15 years ago I got a tattoo and it was great it still looks great but this place for wack. The only reason why I didn't go back to get it fix is because it's small and I rather not go back. They also need a new couch because that couch stinks like a dirty butt. read more

Ray pierced my nipples and did an AMAZING job, I was so scared and he talked me through it and it seriously helped, if I ever want another piercing I'm going back to him, oh and the price was good as well, $60 for barbells both nipples!! read more

Just got home from getting my nipples pierced, and I had to run to my computer to put up a review! Ray was the greatest, he helped coach me through the experience (as I heard it would be painful, I was nervous). The one thing that really stood out is that he really took his time making sure the markings were even and level before starting the piercing. I've been to other places and they didn't put as much care in as he did. Very professional, I absolutely recommend going here! If I had an extra pair of boobs, I'd get them done again! 10/10 read more

Dropped in for a nipple piercing today after reading through various body piercing studio reviews and had an overall great experience at Cast Iron Tattoos- from the start, the guy at the desk was very friendly and courteous in going through my requests and taking my information. Waited only about 20 minutes for Lance to free up (I was a walk-in), but the studio and waiting area was very comfy and clean. As for the piercing, I couldn't ask for a better experience- Lance was friendly and professional, and did a great job on my new piercing :) the nipple piercing was such a breeze I asked if while I was here he could pierce my inner ear cartilage (actually a bit more painful IMO)- and he kindly accommodated. I highly recommend Lance and Cast Iron to anyone! I will certainly be back again! read more
