I called and spoke to the owner Chris about the process and setting up a time to go. Chris was so incredibly helpful, personable and flexible with scheduling a day to go in. Once we were there, the shop was very clean, comfortable & has really cool memorabilia. Again, Chris was wonderful, super thorough in explaining the process, and finding the right spot to mark her ears. He was kind, patient with our little one and just very cool. Would definitely go back time and time again :)

He fit me my daughter and her friend in to do four piercings. He takes his time and marks you up and let you look before piercing. He likes to make sure you are happy with everything. The aftercare instructions were very clear and products were provided. His shop is very cool with memorabilia from all over the world/celebrities and he has a story for everything. Highly recommend!

FIRST EXPERIENCE: I had my first tattoo done at Chicago Tattoo Co during Covid. The artist did an…read moreamazing job, it's beautiful, I practically fell asleep during the appointment, the lines were clean and the steadiness of their hand was impressive. No blow outs or anything. They made sure I was happy with the size and placement. Wonderful experience. Unfortunately, that artist seems to have since left their business. MOST RECENT EXPERIENCE: The second interaction I had at Chicago Tattoo Co was with Tim. I recently lost my dog who was a huge part of my life for 14 years. I was looking to get a piece done of her that looked "faded" as if she were just beyond the veil. I brought an awful sketch with me that I did in about 30 seconds in my car before going in. I can't draw, but I wasn't trying to create something good anyways. Just something to express the "faded" idea I had in my head, since I couldn't explain it with words. Instead of trying to understand what I meant, Tim's first reaction was to judge the drawing. He said things like "I'm trying to be nice" and "no one will know what this is" "it could be a pig"... Once we got past the -its just an example- conversation, he moved on to the size and details of the piece. He said "good" tattoos have to be a certain size and I needed to go bigger. I was not willing to go bigger. By the end of the conversation, he had insulted my quick sketch, my idea, and many people who have tattoos currently that don't live up to his standards. I felt bad for those who have tattoos they love that he crapped all over. He literally called them "shitty tattoos". RECOMMENDATION: I cannot recommend Tim for literally anyone, despite his obvious talent and skill. A man that only appreciates the work he'd do himself is not an artist I'd want tattooing me, because they're likely to have trouble listening. However, Chicago Tattoo is a hub of very talented individuals in general, and its a clean environment. I have attached an image of the sketch I brought in and another sketch that took me about 8 minutes. The second is closer to what we discussed in person, but I can't imagine the first is SO bad that he really couldn't understand what I meant through conversation...it was just a visual aid anyways.. Side Note: Wether someone else likes or recognizes what your tattoo is shouldn't matter. It's what the art piece represents to the person getting it done. Get whatever you want. :)

We reached out to Fuzz and he was happy to work on the designs! He was very pleasant and easy to work with throughout the planning process. When it was tattoo day, we arrived at the shop. It's a super clean space and I love how each artist has their personal flairs added to their areas. Fuzz greeted us and showed us the designs which we loved. He was friendly and professional throughout the whole process and great about checking in to make sure we were feeling well and giving a break when needed. He set up his iPad to have movies on which was a nice distraction while under the tattoo gun. We chatted with a few other artists that came up to check out our works in progress. Everyone there was laid back and friendly. Our tattoos have healed well and look beautiful. I'll be sure to post pics! If you're wanting a tattoo, I highly recommend Fuzz and Ascension (and be sure to check out their other artists' work to find a style that matches your personal preferences; they are all very talented from what I saw!)

When people ask me where is a good tattoo shop in Orlando to get some ink, The East is always the…read morefirst spot to come to my mind. The cleanliness, professionalism, and overall good vibes of the shop makes it a great place for both seasoned tattoo collectors as well as someone getting their very first tattoo. This shop is conveniently located within the Ivanhoe area, neighboring different shops and restaurants. When I came to the shop for the first time a while back... I was honestly expecting it to be a small place with maybe 2-3 artist booths... just because I heard it was located in an upstairs office space... so I figured how big can this place really be? Boy was I wrong... this place is huge. The space held a good amount of booths, I don't know the exact number but if I had to guess maybe 8-10? The decor was spot on classic tattoo parlor full of paintings, and tattoo portraits... but what I had love the most is that each artist booth had its own personal character... full of art and figurines. Now when it comes to the artists... you really could not go wrong with anyone from that shop. There is an artist for every style you can think of and they are very good at what they do. Me personally.... my go to guy has always been Shane since I have been going to him for a few years and the man is a mastermind. Overall, I highly recommend this tattoo shop for anyone who is thinking about getting new art. I highly recommend making an appointment before visiting the shop just because a lot of the artists are usually fully booked for weeks or even months. I do believe the shop will take occasional walk-ins based upon artist's availability...but if not follow them on social media for when they announce their Flash Events, which are a first come... first serve... and the designs are always sick!

I have never been to Beyond Ink but…read moreI follow them on instagram and have quite a few friends who have been and speak highly of Ruben. If you are looking for a tattoo and no conversation, this is your place! It worked well for my friend and she didn't want to look towards him or see the job being done. However, if you enjoy the banter between artist and client while you're getting a tattoo, I suggest to go elsewhere as both artists I observed are pretty reserved. The shop itself was pretty bland and could use a little updating. But, the tools and equipment were clean and that's what really matters! Ruben did a great job with the tattoo as it was extremely fine lined and on the wrist area. So 5/5 stars for his skills!

They are borderline rude to customers -- very standoffish. Labeled as "the best tattoo shop in Orlando," when in reality, my experience here was so uncomfortable that I stopped getting work done on my leg sleeve for over a year. It left such a bad taste in my mouth about tattoo artists. I waited around for my artist to: eat lunch, go on a walk to the gas station down the street, smoke... No urgency whatsoever. You would think if you can tattoo me super fast (and still do a great job), you would book more people and spend your time more wisely. I was booked for a 4 hour window when I only was being worked on for maybe less than hour. The majority of my time there was waiting around to be tattooed. Such a miserable experience and it's the only shop I've been to that runs like this.

Parking- street parking in front of the store, there's also parking in the back Environment- love it! very clean, bright but not loud, minimalist chic, not like your usual tattoo shop. Cleanliness- extremely, major covid precautions taken, masks are worn, everything is replaced, cleaned or sanitized right in front of you before you lay on the tattoo table Booking- I called them directly and spoke to Sandra she is so sweet and personable. She is great at communicating with you when she tells you she will call or email. they also have a booking system. Tattoo artist- Paulo was my artist and he was so great to work with. Even though I got a really small tattoo he took his time to make sure everything was perfect and how I wanted it. He also gave his input which I appreciated. He made me feel so comfortable.
