    When my best friend and I travel, we always find a local tattoo shop to give us a tattoo for our trip memories! We randomly stumbled upon Art Ink Tattoo and are so glad we did! They were able to accommodate us as walk-ins and able to give us exactly what we wanted. Our tattoo was small and cliche but no judgements. Very clear/sterile environment, but also cozy. My artist showed me the needle before opening the package and I definitely appreciate that. Each artist also has their previous work on the wall so you can see who's style fits you best. Definitely recommend! Location - I felt it was easy to find. They are in a walk-up and we had to be buzzed in, but no issues finding it or getting in.

    Great artist. If you are in New York and you are looking to get a tattoo, this is the shop to visit. I was lucky enough to get to see Ledja. She did a great job, little pain and quick. I totally recommend this place. Customer service is fantastic. It is super clean. The artist verify the image with you and make sure you are comfortable on how it looks. All of my friends who came to get a tattoo this weekend from her were beyond pleased with the result. It was about 10 of us who did and not one of them looked like it wasn't worth the price. I know who I am seeing next time I am in NY in need of a tattoo. Haha Trust me, this is your chop.

    My nephew and I started our New York overnight with matching guitar and NYC skyline tattoos. Damian did his and Felipe did mine. Both guys were kind and meticulous. I was done first and asked the owner Ledja about an old and faded eagle tattoo which she ended up fixing for me and it also came out great. We had such a positive experience at this place. Friendly service, great work, reasonable prices!!

    After deciding to go on a birthday trip to NYC, our group went tattoos at Art Ink Tattoo. The staff was friendly both in person and over the phone. The artists were patient, professional, and most importantly super sanitary! I am so pleased with all of the tattoos we received and can't wait to come back. Also, pricing is super reasonable! You're paying for the high quality work you're receiving. Thank you everyone at Art Ink!

    I was visiting NYC for Pride weekend and started contemplating something spontaneous! After a hot day walking around Manhattan, I decided to call and see if this tat shop had time for a walk in. They were super nice and welcomed me to come right over. Natalia helped me get my design perfect and got me set up quick! She got the design situated on my leg perfectly to my liking. Time to get in the chair... so the cue the nerves! The first needle poke hit and I remembered why I said I would never get a second tat! Ouch! But Natalia had a light hand and did a FANTASTIC job! After what felt like 10 minutes, I asked her if she was about 60% done and she told me it was maybe a 1/4 of the way done! The qoute of the day was "that was just the S?!" In the end, the tat came out amazing! So perfect and beautiful! Highly recommend this shop for a big piece or a quick walk in! Everyone in the shop is super nice and it is a great environment. I was entertained(distracted) by greag conversation and lots of laughs. Overall: 10/10 Cleanliness: 10/10 Hospitality: 10/10 Customer Service: 10/10 Ignore the lame review down below. This place is legit. Shop staff - I will bring my husband here for a tat when we come to NYC someday! Thank you for a great experience!

    Getting Tattoos at art ink was such a great experience, from the start of the process in our home state of Washington to physically being in the studio in NYC. Leyda and her daughter Sabrina brought our ideas to life! Also such a great experience getting mother daughter tattoos by a mother and a daughter!! When ever we are in NYC again and ready for new ink we will definitely be back!!

    This place was initially hard to find but we figured it out. From what I remember it was on the 3rd level. We did a walk in appointment on a Friday afternoon and didn't have to wait long. It was very nice and hygienic. My friend and I each got the tattoo pictured and each one probably only took 5-10 minutes. I'm very happy with my tattoo. We also chatted with another group getting tattoos at the same time as us and theirs were also excellent quality and pretty awesome. If I ever return to NYC and want a tattoo I know where to go.

    Ledja gave me the most amazing cover up on an ugly old floral image. I showed her a few pictures of what my ideal tattoo would look like (more delicate flowers with more movement) - never thinking it would be possible - and the tattoo she created is incredible! My original tattoo is completely covered, and the new one is a work of art.

    My girlfriend and I both wanted simple flash tattoos for our trip to New York, we ended up a bit heading to art ink a bit sceptic due to the fact that it was off of Times Square and looks like a bit of a hole in the wall place, however, we were met with great and friendly customer service. Ledja did my tattoo and she delivered EXACTLY what I wanted, super clean lines, quick and very welcoming. Was on the more expensive side, but understandable for the great and trustworthy work.

    Tattoo By Michaela

    I went to Artink tattoo for a tattoo on my arm & had Michaela as my artist. All I can say is WOW!!!! I am in love with this tattoo! Michaela drew it up for me exactly as I pictured. She was so professional and has a legit serious talent & skill. It came out better than a even imagined. I'm obsessed! The shop was so nice & immaculate. I already made another appointment for September to continue creating my tattoo vision with Michaela. She is the best!

    Me and my friends went to New York for a recent trip and we knew we wanted tattoos. ArtInk was one of the most recommended spots when we were there. All I saw from reviews were great things in regards to good pricing, top notch artists, and good vibes. Definitely all those reviews met my expectations. I had a pleasure to also make good bonds with some of the artists and although we were there for 6+ hours into the night it was very fun especially since the crew was cool! Recommend all the artists and shoutout to Armando, Kale, and Ledja they were great! Great skill and very talented people.

    Forever and always I hear my friends voice "whatever you do never do a walk in tattoo". Though I should listen to him, I was craving new ink while staying in NYC. I couldn't be more happy and please with the result and had my friend eat his words. Let alone how cute it looks, I wasn't even aware my artist was even tattooing. They had the most gentle hand and I couldn't believe how amazing the line work and shading came out. Granted this is a character tattoo, but they really captured this character's emotions and personality and the face is my absolute favorite part. The best thing about this tattoo also is as a walk in I was able to get this designed and tattooed within 2 hours. His Instagram tag is @ghostfvceink and when I come back to NYC I'll definitely be getting more done

    With this amateur girl tattoo artist's skill level, my tat might as well be a stick and poke.

    I found tattooist Yeonnie through a friend who came here to get a tattoo of her cats. I really…read moreliked her art and when my friend showed me her versions of windchimes and norigae style tattoo, i was sold. After my first, I've been perusing what would be the best style for my second (I really wanted to get a tattoo dedicated to my cat, Matcha). I instantly fell in love and as fate has it, there was an inspo photo of an omamori with jiji (from kiki's) and cherry blossoms that hit my instagram. Instantly, I knew that this is the style I would like so I messaged Yeonnie and she responded quick. She will do the sketch a day before your appointment (you'll get a cute sketch by midday) and you can request any changes. I absolutely adored the edition of my cartooni-fied cat. Now that I have it on my upper left arm, I am so happy to have a few of the things I personally love forever on my body. Thank you :) I definitely would recommend her. She's quick so the painful moments does not last as long. highly recommend!!
