This was my first tattoo and I have been at other parlors where I felt intimidated. At GameFace from the moment I stepped in the door and was greeted by Edward Madera all my anxiety disappeared. I brought him ideas and he was very receptive. Just yesterday he gave me my first tattoo and very symbolic and special to me.Although I just met Edward I trusted his artistic skills and was in his hands literally. I felt relaxed and he made me feel very comfortable. Also the other artists were professional and all had a great camaraderie with each other. The place is well planned out and everyone wore their masks and disinfected continually. For my first tattoo I'm so excited and definitely will be arranging another tattoo with Edward. read more

I came in expecting the best. He just talks big game. Because I got a tattoo while my boyfriend got the same one by a different artist. Mine was done by the main guy. He kept stopping checking his phone, answering his phone, then had to stop to go take pictures with some guy he signed to a record deal. Then mine got infected, my boyfriend's tattoo was fine. read more

Worse place on earth to go! Paid $2500 and literally begged owner jest to finish. He did a shitty job. Spent $1200 more getting it fixed. The entire crew gets basted out back waiting on victims to arrive! Go elsewhere unless you enjoy infections, bad service, and shoddy tattoos. read more

I have been going to this shop for almost four years now, and i have to say, that the results they've given me have been nothing short of exceptional. I have gotten over twenty piercings here, over three tattoos and the work has always been phenomenal. In terms of piercings; Jest and Mariano are my top recommendations because they have a watchful eye and always assure that you are happy with the result. Jess is very down to earth and is easy to talk to, as for Mariano he is very caring person which makes for a comforting environment that makes you feel well taken care of and alleviates any last minute jitters one may have about getting a piercing. Along with that, i have never gotten any irritation bumps or infections from poor quality jewelry and all my piercings have healed perfectly. If you are looking to get a tattoo my number one recommendation is Droe, quality of work far exceeds his prices. The line work and shading is consistently on point, and not to mention the concept work. In my experience Droe is very attentive with not only what you have requested but the tattooing process in general, for instance i'm not the best with tattoo pain but he always has made sure i'm not over doing it, and will offer breaks as needed without making you feel judged or embarrassed. Lastly, unlike with other artists, when the tattoo heals fully the work doesn't get muddy and the lines don't extend out from the intended place. In short, the work at game face tattoos is so unparalleled that i refuse to get pierced nor tattooed with any other shop. I highly recommend this place to friends and family as i know they will be properly taken care of and satisfied. read more

Came here for a nose piercing and Alex hooked it up!! Called ahead and they were talking walk ins so it was perfect. Alex is very knowledgeable and funny. He's right to the point so don't expect to get babied. My piercing was done in the correct location and it was pain free (no joke!). read more

Five stars but prefacing this with saying first that I did not go here for a tattoo. That said, I actually recently got my ears pierced (yes, for the first time in my life) by Jest, who also happens to be the owner and lead artist at Game Face and it was a great experience. The shop is very sterile and they were up front about their policies and such. The really nice woman assisting Jest made sure the marked spots were perfect (moving them several times to get it just right) and that the piercing room was completely clean. They use single use needles and tools that they took out of the packaging in front of me and I was given the at home instructions. I ran into an issue with one of my ears (100% my fault because I put the backing too tight after it fell out and it cut my ear) & they were really sweet about taking a look to see if the piercing was healing fine (it was). I highly recommend going to a piercer or tattoo shop over getting it done at a mall store 100% & Jest was one of very few I found locally that advertised piercings. Don't have anything to compare to but the pricing wasn't too bad either. read more

I started hearing about this shop right after the Pulse tragedy, as they were one of the local businesses affected, but they also helped raise money for the OneOrlando fund. So of course I decided to look at their work online for a while and finally made an appointment. I had been thinking about this piece for a while, and Jest did a great job helping me figure out the color details on it. I'm so happy with the detail he was able to achieve, even though my butt went numb more than once since it took a while. But this wasn't my first large piece, I knew I was in for a lot of pain and a long session, but it was totally worth it. The shop is clean, they have good artists, and they are all very nice people. Give them a call or stop by for a consult, and they'll work with you on some good stuff. read more

My friend and I were visiting Orlando on a Disney trip and super last minute decided getting matching tattoos was a priority. After doing some research on tattoo shops in the area, we settled on contacting Jest at Game Face. I sent him a message on Instagram and he was quick to get back to me. We arrive at the shop around 4:30pm and everyone greeted us warmly. We found out upon arrival that Jest was actually staying late to accommodate us, so kind. My friend and I are EXTREMELY picky and he worked with our design until we reached a design that we both loved. Thank you for your patience, Jest! I went first and realized shortly that the inside of your ankle is a pretty rough spot for a tattoo, but Jest and the other guys at the shoo kept me distracted and laughing until it was over. My tattoo looks beautiful, the lines are crisp and dark and the placement is perfect. Overall, I would recommend the shop to anyone in the Orlando area looking for a great group of artists. The shop is clean and comfortable and it definitely helps that the guys have great personalities to keep you entertained during the pain. I'll just say that I would drive all the way from Miami to work with Jest again. read more

I got my nose pierced here by Jest about a month and a half ago, and it was the best piercing experience ever. I was pretty nervous, but Jest walked me through everything and exactly what to expect, which I really appreciated. After it was all done, he made sure I knew how to take care of the piercing to make sure it healed correctly. On top of a great piercing experience, I also felt everything in the shop was super clean and organized, and that pricing was super fair as well. 1000% will be back for any other future piercings, and would definitely try getting any future tattoos here as well! read more

My wife and I stopped by the shop to see what they could do for us. I had been following the shop on IG and FB for quite a while and thought Jest's (JE) style fit us, and he was able to see us for a consult. We told him what we wanted, he had us airdrop some photos, and set up our appointments. He told us up front the time it would take to do each tattoo, the price per hour, and his policy on changes. We were happy with this and paid our deposit. My wife's appointment was first, about a week after our consult. She was very happy with his first drawing and went ahead with it. Since this was her first tattoo, she was understandably nervous. Jest and Ed put her at ease, and their fun, laid back personalities made it a breeze. Once done, Jest covered it with SaniDerm and provided specific after care instructions. The lines on her tattoo are razor sharp and the colors vivid. I had mine done yesterday and couldn't be happier! Jest came right out, showed me his drawing and I was amazed at what he brought me! It was exactly what I had in mind! He made a couple adjustments, printed the template and away we went. We took a few breaks during the 6.5 hours it took to do my tattoo. Jest and Ed were a blast! They made the experience fun and we had a really great time. I was absolutely blown away by the finished tat! The attention to detail, the shading, including catch light in my wolf's eyes, everything was top shelf!! After the pics, he wrapped me up in SaniDerm and gave me the same after care instructions he gave my wife. I had the chance to see how the crew interacted with about 7 or 8 customers during my time there. These guys are good! They have fun and they treat everyone professionally, providing constructive input where needed. They also don't BS anyone, they were absolutely straight with everyone. They keep the shop very clean, keep the music going, sing, and keep up some really good conversation. Between my wife and me, we have three tattoos to go (maybe more). Jest and Game Face will get all of them!! read more

Ok where do I start. I have been thinking about getting a tattoo for months. My friends had their done by Jest and I loved the work he did on them. I came to the shop with an idea, a simple design but then as I got more inspired, Jest designed a great piece that I loved!! Long story short, this shop has amazing artists and they are all very friendly. I have to say I am afraid of needles and was very worried about the pain etc. The staff was amazing at putting me at ease. 45 minutes or so later everything was done. If you're looking for a local artist who is not only patient and super talented you need to check out Game Face Tattoos! read more

I have to say, i had an amazing my first experience getting a piercing here! Alex from the begining made sure what I wanted and made sure to tell me all the steps and made sure I understood. I didnt even wait 30 minute, super quick. I was in and out. As soon as Alex called me in for my piercing, he always made sure I was comfortable and gave me many option to pick from. Lastly, I got my tragus piercing done and it didn't even hurt at all. After 2 days, my piercing never got swollen. Would definitely be back again!!!!!! Also, super clean and super nice environment. AND all their products are sterilized!!! read more

My best friends came in from out of a town and we wanted matching tattoos in honor of our 20+ year friendship, our love of music, and being majestic Leos! I asked for recommendations and several friends recommended this particular spot. When we arrived, the door was locked. But, we called and they opened the door up for us. I should mention that I have a low tolerance for pain and I made the mistake of watching YouTube videos of people spazzing out while getting inked. Needless to say, I was nervous and nauseous. I really had nothing to worry about. My artist explained everything and made sure I was comfortable. After the AWESOME design was created by the artist (I was amazed at how quickly he came up with a perfect symbol), the entire process took about 20-30 minutes. Paperwork, set up, placement, and getting tattooed. I bought some after care products and was given directions on how to take care of my art. Honestly, I am very impressed with the artist who created our art. I will definitely be back for more! read more

I cannot say enough good things about JE and the boys down at Game Face Tattoos! My better half and I have gotten 4 customer pieces done with JE already and we're going to be going back to him ALWAYS! JE is the cover-up KING! He saved my whole arm, which was ruined by a horrible tattoo from 12 years ago! He took the time to meet with me one-on-one, understand my style, what I wanted and then he went to work! We set-up an appointment for later in the week and when he showed me my customer design (Which I have NO IDEA how or what I even wanted) it was PERFECT! The man was able to read my mind and delivered! Beyond that, his work speaks for itself! The guy is a magician and skilled artist! He takes time to explain, educate and even does it all with his own bit of style and fun! Everything, from the initial meeting, to the shop, to the tattoo itself to even follow-up, he has been ON POINT! The shop is clean! Sanitized and JE and the guys are so welcoming and keep that place WITH PRIDE! AMAZING artist, AMAZING shop - he's out guy for life! Thanks man! read more

Alex was awesome, made the piercing process super quick and easy! made sure he was doing exactly what i wanted but wasted no time.

When first walking in game face i was immediately impressed with all their art. It definitely gives you something to distract yourself while getting tatted. We walked in for a small tattoo without appointments. This was about 3pm on a Wednesday. Fortunately we were able to be seen immediately by Jest. Jest has done some amazing tattoos as seen in yelp, instagram, and Facebook. He is super friendly, knowledgeable, quick, and his lines are This was our first time here, we will definitely be back! read more

Jest was so awesome! I first called about stretching out my ears and he was so patient with me from the beginning of the call until the very end of the visit... and I was very satisfied with everything! I had called a few places around the area and Jest was the only one that took to the time to really find out what I wanted, ask questions and invited me to come in. Then once I arrived he was very welcoming (my first time ever meeting him or coming into his shop) and informative! I actually tried on 3 different horns/plugs before deciding on a pair and he made sure that I was happy with everything! I definitely plan to go back again! read more

Excellent job for both my husband and I. Edward and Fahn are extremely talented. We decided over breakfast that we wanted ink that day. We arrived without an appointment and they we're still willing to do the work. I didn't even know what I want to get. After searching a few ideas, Fahn ended up creating a beautiful piece for me. The shop was clean, and we felt right at home. Would highly recommend any of these artists to do work for you! read more

Stopped by for the first time to get my nose pierced. Was promptly greeted and taken care of. The shop clean and professional. Kind workers and fair prices. Jest was very gentle and knowledgeable about any questions I had. It actually hurt wayyyy less than expected, I'm assuming because of how gentle and experienced he is. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Noticed only a few reviews but decided to give them a chance. Walking in felt at home like a favorite shop back home. It's small, but quaint. Piercer was knowledgeable and helpful with making placement of my second tongue piercing proper. It's not my first go around with piercings and he was very smooth and fluid with his motion that the piercing went very smoothly. I will definitely recommend this shop for piercings to friends seeking a smooth first experience! read more

Chill staff but artist switched me to a different artist because he didn't want to work on my arm. The other artist said he could make my shading smoothly but ended up filling in every spot and charged me $600 for some simple shading. These people will hustle you. My shading healed red and not really dark and this is the first time seeing this. I thought he would have done better shading from his artwork but I got hustled. Now I will have to spend money to get my whole arm removed now. I am not satisfied spending $600 for simple shading. read more

I just moved to Orlando and found Jest online. He started a sleeve for me and has been nothing but amazing from the entire time. The other artist was very friendly and funny during the entire process. I can not wait to go back in 2 weeks to add to my sleeve. read more
