Two times I sent tattoo design ideas to these folks and both times got shot down as they had no interest in tattooing me. I know one person doesn't make or break a business (but word of month spreads like wildfire, good or bad), but are you trying to make money or not.

Everyone at the shop was welcoming and I was very happy with my new ink. Highly recommend this shop!read more

However, not being a big tattooed up guy, I found them to not be very friendly. I wasn't really trying to make friends, I was really just trying to get some good ink and they did a good job. The place is in an old bank. so it's really cool. If you want a clean, safe, and reliable tattoo artist this would be the place to go.

At 1:25, no one came back out or said anything to me, and I got tired of waiting, so I walked out. Later on he text me and said he was sorry and that he took a walk in right before I came in (keep in mind I had an official appointment for a specific time) and then he proceeded to say that it's just how the business goes. I guess this guys doesnt understand that appointment people come before walkins and dont take a walk in at the same time you know someone is coming in for an appointment. This place is clown house-NEVER AGAIN will i go back.

He has always taken the time to ensure that I am getting the best tattoo he can provide, and is not afraid to tell you what will and won't work so that you can get the most out of your ink. EXCELLENT, BEAUTIFUL color work, with bold and clean lines. The shop is clean, friendly and fun- I have always signed a waiver before every tattoo and Tom always triple checks the design and placement before starting. My oldest tattoo from him (6 years ago) still looks fresh, and all of them look vibrant and bold. I get compliments on my tattoos almost daily- he is a true artist and not only that, I always have a great time chatting with him. This is the only shop and artist I will use as long as I remain in San Diego- if you want amazing traditional (American or Latin) art, Tom Veling is the person to do it.
