After my third amazing tattoo at this shop, I felt it was time to write a review and show my appreciation. Every visit has been consistently great. The space is comfortable, the music is good, and the atmosphere reflects a real respect for the craft and art without feeling pretentious. This is my second tattoo with Fernando, and he's awesome to work with. He's incredibly talented, listens well, offers thoughtful input, and is just a great person to spend a full day with while getting tattooed. This shop really highlights the difference between prioritizing art and experience versus cheap, generic tattoos. If you care about quality work done in a solid environment by people who genuinely value what they do, this is the place and Fernando is the artist you want. read more

Kat Burns did a lovely job redoing and redesigning a tattoo that had faded. I highly recommend her!

Uriel is incredible! Easily the best experience I've had getting a tattoo - he was efficient, personable, and a pleasure to work with. Not to mention the rest of the staff was awesome as well! Great vibes, can't recommend this place enough! read more

I've received two tattoos already from Leila and she is amazing! She actually did mine and my sister's very first tattoos which we got together. It was an amazing first experience, especially since this tattoo was very meaningful for us. I knew after my first tattoo with Leila, I wanted another one from her. So, a couple months later I booked another appointment with her. Again, another amazing experience. The second tattoo was about 5 hours long and I was in excruciating pain, but she's so patient and makes sure you're comfortable. She's also so sweet and super talented. I would definitely recommend her to others. She can literally make your tattoo dreams come to life. The tattoo shop, located in Ventura, is a nice studio and clean as well! I read more

This is my go to spot. All of the artists are high quality, especially Uriel; if you can get him booked you are lucky! Really chill environment to get inked in as well. Pro tip you need to visit their website to book an appointment; they are too busy to do walk-ins. I don't plan to get any of my tattoos anywhere else. read more

From the first time I looked Shelby up on Instagram and messaged with her I knew she was going to be great. Meeting her in person was even better. She is an amazing soul, nevermind mentioning what an amazing artist she is. Patient, kind, and great communication. I cannot say enough good things about her. Feels like I've known her for years. She did an amazing job fixing my butterfly that wasn't done correctly by another tattoo shop. But for that I'm thankful because I've found my new tattoo person!! I can't wait to come back to her for more!!! read more

Called the day before my appt. I sent a pic of my tattoo I wanted touched up. Gave me a quote via text. Fortunately they were able to squeeze me in the next day. I was trying to hopefully get Uriel. Julie was my second choice which turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Her vision and style matched perfectly with what I wanted my tattoo to look!!! Definitely worth to have waited since I've been trying to look for the perfect artist to do it. Julie you were amazing! Thank you! read more

I don't write many reviews but I felt inclined to write one about Uriel and De La Luz tattoo. Lets start with the tattoo shop - it is unlike any other that I have been to. There is something special about this place. It has a very inviting, calm and serene vibe. You can tell that the owner put a lot of thought/effort into it and took his time when designed the shop. Everything from the layout, to the art, to the guest area, the plants, it all was so well designed. Although I am sure he is proud of what he has done, when you meet the owner you know he did this for his clients. He created an atmosphere that makes sitting for an 8 tattoo enjoyable. The experience. To Uriel he was not just tattooing some random person, he was working on me as an individual. He took his time to get to know me. He is genuinely interested in me as a person, my story, my struggles, whats going on in my life AND he is very open and honest about his life and his story as well. While he connects to you as a person, he incorporates that into his work and your time there. It really adds a level of comfort that I doubt you will find elsewhere. Now for the tattoos...well, I will start by saying I am very glad that I have my sessions scheduled before he is THE NAME in the tattoo industry. In my opinion, his work is the best. My opinion aside, no one can deny that his work is in arguments for the best out. He truly takes pride in his art and making sure you receive the best tattoo possible...if you want a tattoo, something that will (in theory) remain on your body for the remainder of your life, you want it to be the best work possible, you will get that with him. You WILL get the tattoo you deserve. I plan on getting at least a few more tattoos and I know that I will go no where else. read more

I love De La Luz so much ! The shop is always super clean here and the people here are so professional and nice. My go to artist is Leila , she's done my first and every other tattoo I have as well.

This has by far been my favorite tattoo experience. This shop has such an amazing atmosphere and the people in it are so kind and genuine. You can tell they love what they do and do everything they can to make it the best experience possible for their clients. Uriel was so enthusiastic about this tattoo that it made the experience that much better. He made sure the design was exactly what I wanted, and so much more. Can't wait to finish this tattoo and will absolutely be getting more done here in the future. read more

I absolutely recommend De La Luz tattoo!! First and foremost they are amazing artists who take their time and focus on detail, which is quite obvious when looking at their work. In addition, the shop is squeaky clean and beautifully decorated. Everyone is very friendly, positive, and interactive, which makes the whole experience less intimidating and more enjoyable. I'm currently in the process of getting an arm sleeve tattoo with one of the artists (Charles) and I could not be more happy with his work so far! read more

Ive gone to several other shops but de la Luz has been by far the best one. Everyone is so friendly and the environment is great. I've gone with Leila for two of my tattoos and they have both been great experiences. She is a great artist and always does a great job. I loved that she takes her time to make sure the tattoo is perfect and we ( the customers) like it 100%. She works with the design and brings out your thought to life. Recommend Leila 10/10 ! read more

Leila has been my tattoo artist for years! I keep coming back because of her amazing attention to detail, and her unwavering determination to give the best tattoo to her guests. I promise she will not disappoint! Jan also recently gave me my first leg tattoo and he did such an awesome job. both Leila's and Jann's pieces have healed so nicely and I'm in love with all my pieces thanks to them. The environment of the shop itself is so welcoming and chill. Any one of the amazing tattoo artists there will do an awesome job. can't recommend it enough! read more
