    Medusa back piece
    Michael L.

    1st time in Monarca_TattooStudio to get work done by Espinoza Ink. He Killed my back piece black and grey piece within 2 days. 1st day coming I had no idea what I wanted to get; I showed him a couple of references and let his imagination take over the rest. He'll put in the work and goes at a very good pace work ethic is top tier! He has been my 1st artist since I came back to California and will definitely be my last. During my 2 days (20+hrs) I felt very comfortable with all the artists from the apprentice to the senior artist was incredibly welcoming, patient with their clients, joking with everyone, and all the artist were bouncing ideas with one another. Don't be shy or intimidated to come through to this studio I've been to a lot in my past and this one takes the cake for sure. Can't wait to go back again. Studio was very clean well lit area and the plaza that was in is well taken care of. check out their artist in Instagram ALL of them are pretty dope! @espinozaink @Sientoink @elchopz @inkbyjoseph @eddy_tattoos @immortal_tattoos707 @Santosxarte

    Been here multiple times with Jose. He is who I send all my family and friends to when I'm asked about my tattoos. The work he does is quality and very detailed. He's creative with his art work and patient and really helps his clients feel more comfortable when it's their first tattoo. All my future work will 1000% continue to be with him. Love his attention to detail and his open ideas to add onto the designs I show him

    Such an awesome experience Ricardo (aka chopz) was so professional and so nice! He made sure we were 100% satisfied with size, style and placement before we said yes!! The music selection is also super great!! Great vibes, great environment, overall great atmosphere and experience!! Will definitely be making this place my go to spot for any future work

The detail that he puts in his work AMAZING!!Monarca Tattoo Studio is the place you want to get your next tattoo!! The atmosphere was great and very clean!!

    My second time seeing Monica at Sugar City, and she just does amazing work. Her line work is crisp…read moreand gentle, and her coloring and shading is intricate and eye-catching. This time she adapted a piece of my best friend's art for tattooing, and it's definitely my new favorite ink. Monica, you have a client for life in me. And as for the shop itself, it's comfy, clean, and has the absolute best playlist. Everyone makes you feel like a regular, even if it's only your first or second time, and the whole vibe feels so authentic to the people who work there. A true 11/10 joint that I recommend to anyone I can.

    The Best In The Bay!…read more The Artist: I actually discovered Sugar City tattoo through Yelp! I was looking for a tattoo artist that have experience in outdoor nature scenery! After a few months of searching I finally decided on Sorin and ready to get my own paradise! Sorin is one of the coolest artists that I have ever met. I felt very comfortable with him during consultation. He was very patient, very helpful. Customer discussing ideas can be frustrating for an artist specially when the customer have a difficult time describing designs. I was that customer lol. But Sorin was calm while sharing some ideas! He was easy to talk to and the vibe was real!!I knew it then that the process of getting my tattoo is going to be a pleasant experience! And I wasn't wrong! Sorin completed the project and I was very pleased of the quality and the results. My friends, family and colleagues love it!! So, I went back for a second one! It won't be the last! Tha facility: I like the facility a lot. It's situated in one of the main streets in Crockett in one of the historic buildings. I'm not really sure but it looks historic. The interior looks cool and cozy and not scary! lol. It's a place anyone will be comfortable getting tats done! Finally, if you are thinking of getting ink for New Year or something personal, Sorin is the man for the job at Sugar City Tattoo Company! As I mentioned, I'll be back for more! FYI: Photos from Sorin

    I had a great time getting 2 of my tattoos here. Both of my tattoos were done by David "Ocean"…read moreHardy @tattoosbyocean. My first experience with this shop, my family experienced a loss and wanted to get a tribute tattoo made for a cousin. It was a brand design with my cousin's initials inside. We asked if they could fit 5 of us in and they were more then accommodating. David made us feel comfortable and was a good guy to talk to. So good, most of returned to get more! I returned to get a karaoke mic on my arm that had the wire plug into my wrist. He got what I wanted down! Consistently great experience. This place is conveniently located near downtown Vallejo off Sonoma Blvd. Parking is no problem with street parking in front and parking lot across the street. It's good to know that there are great artists locally. I see that David specializes in portraits. So if you are looking for an artist that can do portraits well, David is your man! There are a couple artists that reside here and their artwork, from what I have seen, is pretty awesome! Hopefully, you're Yelping adventures lead you to this awesome tattoo spot in Vallejo. Even if you are not close by, I would travel for their talents. Definitely recommending and returning for more. Stay hungry adventurous and happy Yelping!

    Man where do I start, Odie was my artist, he was super responsive and coordinated well up to the…read moredate we worked on this project together, I had the idea of what I wanted and gave him a rough sketch and I asked him to make it better, and what can I say the results speak for itself! He delivered! We had a great conversation throughout the session, super chill vibes and a funny dude. Just a chill person to be around. My experience with odie versus other shops I've been to, he has a light touch or maybe it's just the area of skin I got inked, but 75% of my tattoo was a 3/10 pain and highest reaching 7/10. There's parking in the back so your car doesn't get bapped cuz you're near downtown vallejo. Side note he is very well priced and works fast and accommodates. Make sure you have what you want in mind and with his experience of 10+ years he will work with you very well. 10/10 I'll come again if I need work done other than tribal. Check out his instagram page for ideas on how he works and his art. Ig: Sleoin_tattoo

    Kai, also known as Cobra Kai, is a new artist that I so happened to run into while looking for a…read moreshop to do to my tribute tattoo. I've spent a while lotta' time in Vallejo with other artists and the style that I was looking for was the American Tradition slash Sailor Jerry type vibe - in which my previous artists couldn't follow through on since their styles were a little different. Fortunately Kai was able to fit me on a Monday and our appointment was set up for 2 o'clock on a ungodly hot day. The shop is in an older home converted into the tattoo parlor with no A/C so your only options are fans and drinking cold waters. Thus, in the future I will only be planning on getting tatts from Kai on cooler days. Unlike my previous artists, she was (obviously) female and we connected really well so my three hour session went by pretty quick with a few smoke breaks. She was awesome and honestly, this chick has a good head on her shoulders... from what I can tell. We talked about her art work, her travels, her personal life from all over the country, and she showed me some of her drawings that she was working on. Her work was amazing. Perfect and better than I could of imagined. It's one thing to see the stencil and another to see the finished piece on yourself. Surprisingly she admitted that American Traditional was something she wanted to work more on but with the work she did on me - she definitely delivered. The red was brilliant and the shading was amazing. The tattoo is healing and the red is still vibrant. For sure I'll be going back to her in the future since I plan on adding more to my piece. More of her work is on FB Ink by Cobra Kai. Thank you Kai!
