“Overall I had a good experience. The artist that worked with me Nick was quick and professional and on point. He came up with a design of what I wanted that was simple and easy to work on. I’m hoping to go back to add more to the piece down the road and really make it a complete leg.“

“I first met leo about a year ago. We sat and went over my idea for my very first tattoo. He was able to take my ideas and turn it into an amazing first piece on my forearm. Since then, I’ve already been back three times and now have a one of a kind, insanely dope half sleeve. I’m looking forward to my next appointment in September. His style is exactly what I was looking for! I highly recommend checking out Leo at supreme Art Of War if you’re looking to get a really dope tattoo!

“Called and made an appointment same day for a septum piercing. Once you arrive immediately you can tell it’s a very clean and well run establishment. Alex was setting up as I filled out my paperwork. Once I was finished he was ready too. Super nice guy and very knowledgeable. I knew right away I was in good hands. He explained the entire process before hand so I knew exactly what was going to happen. He showed me all the tools and how everything was sterile. During the piercing he made sure I was okay after each step. Gave clear instructions to me on what I needed to do (breathing, close my eyes). I went in at 4:00pm and was done by 4:20pm. By far a great experience and how fast it went was amazing. I highly recommend this location to anyone looking to get a piercing.“

“David Dettloff is an amazing tattoo artist!  I chose him for his unique style and beautiful, photorealistic color tattoos, as well as his ability to do cover-ups.

From the beginning, David has been friendly, communicative, and knowledgeable. During our consultation, he explained why my original idea didn't work well and instead designed a beautiful, custom tattoo that covered up my old ink. I am so happy with the results!

The Ink Lab is a great shop. It’s very clean and comfortable, and in a nice neighborhood.“

“Highly highly recommended. Jeff and the staff at Uptown Tattoo are the best.

Jeff's talent and work are incredible. Jeff is careful and meticulous (something you obviously want with a permanent tattoo) and takes great care, even with the simplest of designs or even text. In my case, Jeff did some initial work on my right arm at an event held at the shop, and it went so well that I came back a few weeks later for a similar one on my left.

It's not to say that the artists that did my prior work weren't any good, just that Jeff's work was better, for many reasons.

First, Jeff took great care and time to align the two tats so that they matched on each arm and were in sync with each other. Jeff knows just what pressure to use so that the inking is well done without any additional "pain."

Best of all, Jeff is simply an awesome human being. Friendly, nice, outgoing, and professional.

If this is your first time getting inked or then next on a walking canvas, Jeff is who you want putting that permanent person statement on your most precious possession, your bod.

Quality work and fair prices. Be sure to tip well, Jeff's work and talent are deserving of the "extra bump."

Highly-Highly recommended.
Bonus 6-Star for exceptional quality and experience.

Cleanliness: Very clean and safe shop in Uptown.
Right behind (door on the side) Bob's Java Hut off of Hennepin Ave. Best to call and make an appointment. I've heard walk-ins may be available on Fridays on a space available basis.“

“What an amazing experience with one of the greatest tattoo artists I’ve ever met. Walking in the shop is nice and clean. The decor is not your classic clip art all over. I met with Winfield on doing a Chicago dog tattoo. He put together a great looking Chicago dog making sure it was the right angle and proper placement on my arm. During the session he had great music playing and was a great conversationalist. The placement on my arm kept my arm in an awkward position and Winfield was very accommodating to me having to stretch my arm. The tattoo turned out better than I could have imagined. The colors were on point from the bright green relish to the amazing detail in the tomato, pickles and bun. From start to finish it was a great experience. I will only be tattooed here and by Winfield!“

“Luke is an amazing artist! I get so many compliments on my tattoo he did! Also piercing for my daughter was the best!“

“This place is AWESOME! I've been tattooed here twice now. Big thanks to Jesse Heike this time for the amazing new tattoo!

Cleanliness: By far the cleanest shop I've ever been in. They put a lot into client safety which means so, so much to me!“

“In requesting a memorial tattoo that would remind me of the deep and expansive beauty and love that my mom imprinted in my life, Dolores skillfully etched the perfect design onto my arm. I had a hard time envisioning the exact tattoo I desired, but Dolores took note of the vague idea I had and created this resplendent quetzal (national bird of Guatemala) that I find breathtaking. Dolores was very responsive to all my questions and made the process easy. I am very pleased with Dolores' knowledge, experience and masterful work. It gives me great pleasure to give Dolores my highest recommendation!“

“Matt was amazing! I’ve got two tattoos from him and he is so professional and easy going. Endlessly patient with the placement and really sweet dude. I get tons of compliments on the tattoos He did. Already can’t wait to get my next ink from him!“

“Let me tell you about Dave Wick, the talented tattoo artist that I have been seeing for over ten years. His artistic ability is truly incredible, and every time I bring him my ideas, he turns them into masterpieces. Dave is a true artist, with a keen eye for detail and a unique style that sets him apart from others in the industry. Not only is he an exceptional artist, but he is also an incredible person. I am lucky to call him my friend and have had the pleasure of watching him grow and evolve as an artist. If you are in need of a tattoo artist, I can confidently say that you won't find anyone better than Dave. His passion for his craft and dedication to his clients make him a top choice for anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind tattoo experience. Love you, Dave!“
