Caesar is without question the man when it comes to any woodcut/engraved style tattoos. I was struggling for a while to find an artist who was able to tackle the design I had in mind, and was ready to give up on it until I had Caesar and East Side Ink recommended to me. Despite being several states away, Caesar was kind, responsive, knowledgeable, and really showed he had a deep understanding for what makes tattoos in this style work. East Side Ink is also a very cozy studio, and the other artists/employees (never got their names, sorry) there were extremely kind and welcoming while I was waiting to get started and throughout getting the tattoo done. Couldn't be happier with how my tattoo turned out- price is definitely on the higher end but that's to be expected when getting work of this size and quality. Thanks again to Caesar for the incredible work! If you have the money to spend on a large statement piece in this style, then I can't recommend these Caesar and East Side Ink enough. I already plan on returning in the future for my next piece.

I went to East Side Ink on a friends recommendation and immediately felt like it was the right spot. Very warm and welcoming. I was getting my first tattoo, so this was important. My artist was Jonah, and he couldn't have been nicer. He was patient, attentive, focused, and detail oriented. He knew it was my first tattoo, so he took extra measure to make sure everything was just right. He is kind, funny, and very talented. I really enjoyed the experience and was so happy that I chose East Side Ink. In terms of the finished piece, It's EXACTLY what I envisioned. I couldn't be more happy and grateful. Thank you Jonah and East Side Ink!

I finished my Japanese fantasy/lord of the rings inspired sleeve with Luke Kupono at East Side and I will never get tattooed by anyone else!! Luke is attentive, caring, friendly, and will be just as invested in your tattoo as you are. My ideas were abstract and a little crazy but he made a fantastical dream a stunning reality. I’ve had multiple people stop to tell me my sleeve is the best black and gray they’ve ever seen and I couldn’t agree more. 100% recommend Luke for your next piece, big or small!!

I want to thank Jess Machete, Josh Lord and the rest of the staff at East Side Ink, for an incredible day! I won the Revolver magazine tattoo contest with Philip H. Anselmo and the Illegals. The tattoo is perfect and this will be a day I will never forget. I highly recommend anyone looking for a great tattoo experience to check out this shop. Thank you all again!
