They do accept walk ins, the space is huge nicely decorated.I'm pretty private even though the booths are open. Shout out to Paul, his kindness was everything. Super chill dude, real good work. He said that one of the artist was trained in Japanese tattooing. So for those of you who are looking for that, check out their Instagram. She wanted our family motto tattooed on her arm, and we were gonna write it on paper.But Paul let us just write it on her arm, and then he traced it. Shop minimum is $100, and waiver needs to be signed.

Walked in with 5 people for some small tattoos and was able to get right in!…read more Alina was extremely welcoming, VERY cleanly, and had amazing line work. I am a bit picky when it comes to line work and Alina is a total prodigy. Very good natural talent with art and attention to detail. She sanitized every placement of a tattoo, after each persons tattoo, changed out the equipment/cleaned as needed, wore gloves, and light handed. VERY professional. The atmosphere of the place is very cool and relaxed. I'd fly back to Boston just for this place.

I cannot say enough good things about this shop and owner, Elize Nazelie. I emailed Elize back in…read more2015 inquiring about a half sleeve, which would soon turn into a full sleeve. She responded rather quickly (for a busy shop owner) - I sent her reference photos, and we then made an appointment for a consultation. The consultation was about 20 min and she drew on my arm detailing exactly what she would be doing and then traced that. No question was left unanswered. I then had multiple two hour sessions which I wasn't used to in my previous longer tattoo sessions, which was great. Elize always made sure I was comfortable, played awesome music, and always checked in on me to see if I was hanging in. Best tattoo experiences I've ever had, hands down. I refer this shop to literally everyone. Her books are closed right now, but I cannot wait to come to the new shop for another piece!

My wife and I were visiting Boston and we had an idea for a tattoo that we have wanted for a while…read more We called many places around the area and they were all booked for the weekend (we were only there for a few days). Through a little bit of research, we found Hourglass Tattoo Studio and specifically Sanjay. We really liked his portfolio and emailed him the same day to see if he had availability. He responded pretty quickly and we scheduled an appointment with him for the next day. He drew up the design and with his edits it looked amazing, but explained that he didn't think the piece would work because of the curvature of our arms. This came as a bit of a surprise, but we trusted him since he is the expert so we decided to go with something else. We countered on the spot, with a new design, and thankfully (and surprisingly), he took it all in stride and drew up the design with no complaints. I think it helped that the new design was a bit smaller and simpler. Even though the new tattoo design was very impromptu for him, he was very fair and patient the whole time explaining what he thought would work and what would not. He is a very easy going and chill guy, with great taste in music, and you feel like you are in great hands. Not to mention the needle he uses (some kind of high speed, quiet needle) is much more painless than other needles I have felt before. I appreciate Sanjay for drawing up a great design and not being frustrated with us when we decided to change tattoo ideas. Thanks so much! The healing process was also nice and easy! Highly recommend Sanjay for any tattoos (small or large) that you are interested in getting. Also he has very fair prices.

Sanjay is no longer with the shop…read morebut his service was incredible and I would imagine that that is reflected with the other artists.

I called in, Mike answered the phone, I inquired about the shop minimums because my wife and I were wanting small tattoos to remember our experience with her second Boston Marathon. Mike was willing to work with us on the fee because of the size but ultimately we felt like his work was worth the fee plus tip. We both left very satisfied and feeling very welcome, especially being outsiders from out of state. Super easy to deal with and literally the best and cleanest shop I've been in.

You know what's even better than being absolutely in love with your new tattoo? When the artist was…read moreequally as stoked about it. Mike Ouellette's work has been on my mind, so glad I finally got to Seaport Tattoo Company today. The shop is gorgeous, clean, staff were super friendly and Mike was beyond phenomenal. I could type a small novel about how great my experience was and how glad I am to have found a shop/artist to stick with that I trust 100%. Can't wait to go back. If you're here reading reviews and are on the fence- do yourself a favor...get off Yelp and book the appointment. You won't be disappointed!!

I got two conch piercings here a few months ago; originally I had planned on getting one conch…read morepiercing per ear, but my piercer, Lars, recommended against it, and was very accommodating to how I wanted to proceed. I was also recommended against piercing with hoops by the people working in the jewelry cases, for which I am also grateful for. Overall, the piercing was a very pleasant experience. Everyone was so nice and patient, which put me at ease as I was very nervous. I cannot recommend Lars enough; they were very kind with me

Came here for a tattoo appointment with Hannah and had a wonderful time! I absolutely love my new…read morepiece--she gave me two options for the design and scaled it down slightly to fit my arm better which I really appreciated. Note that if you're there for a tattoo appointment (not a piercing appointment) the tattoo doors are two doors down from the main shop! I was tattooed for about 2 hours and was able to keep headphones in during the session. Shop was clean and everyone working there was friendly and welcoming. I will most definitely return for more tattoos and piercings. Highly recommend Hannah's work as well! The one thing I will say is I do wish I was sent home with a bandage wrap (such as tegaderm or saniderm) instead of a traditional healing wrap with plastic wrap, but I understand each artist is different. Not a deal breaker for me at all just a skincare/method preference!

Let me tell y'all something about Empire Tattoo, Cori in particular: I could not recommend this…read moreplace highly enough. I got my first tattoo from Cori a little over a year ago. The booking process was easy peasy, she got back to me as quickly as she could, and calmed my nerves instantly when I went in (she's an absolute sweetheart).Now, I have three tattoos from Cori, and I wholeheartedly intend to get many more in the future. The shop is ultra clean, and the front desk staff is always friendly and cordial. The lobby features some seriously squishy and comfy chairs to relax in while you wait. Cori went above and beyond every single time, going so far as to respond to my messages on her day off, and extensively discuss design ideas so that she could create the best possible tattoo. I have come to completely trust her judgement and skill. I now have three tattoos that I absolutely adore. Total strangers stop me to compliment them, and every time I sing Cori's praises. I definitely recommend Empire Tattoo!!

Went in tonight to get a tattoo on my leg with Sammi. I had never been here before, but I saw and…read moreheard great reviews so why not. Plus everyone gets that itch to get a lil ink here and there. Sammi was patient and nice. She did an amazing job on my tattoo and always made sure I was ok and answered any questions with no hesitation. She was patient with my chatty Cathy self and then when it was time to tattoo didn't mind that I kept moving my hands around and playing with a pen. I havent been able to find an artist that I like and like their work. I can already tell I'm gonna be back a few more times and honestly I can't wait! If you are Going in, Sammi is the person you gotta see!
