The atmosphere is gorgeous. Cant tell its a tattoo shop from the outside. They dont have books and seem to focus mainly on customized tattoos. If you have a small simple design in mind you might not want to go here. Reception was condescending when booking and when paying. With that said the artist was very nice, awesome with showing placement. Very knowledgeable, creative and this was the least painful tat Ive ever gotten. Only downside was reception and the hour and a half wait time for an appointment booked a week in advanced.
I’ve gotten many tattoos from this shop. Kris has done many tats for me, and I can’t say enough about what an amazing artist she is... People complain about the wait to get an appointment with her, but it is worth the perfection you will get from her. and just recently I started to use Johan. He is an amazing artists with ridiculous skills. His eye for detail and his steady hand being tattooing to a whole new level. From people who are looking to get their first or someone looking to get their 30th, you won’t be disappointed with either one of these artist!!
I came here for first tattoo and had the worst experience ever. My tattoo is heavily scarred and the artist didn’t know what he was doing. I came many times to have my tattoo fixed by the artist and he made it worse. The owner did nothing about the situation and had a bad attitude, and is not a professional business owner. I paid 1000 dollars for a horrible tattoo. I don’t recommend anyone going to this tattoo shop ever. Shout out to Dave Patel for fixing my tattoo. Go to Dave for any tattoo work he is the best and is really professional.
Called, they squeezed me in. I was getting my third year of being in remission from cancer heart. I explained how it was important and so they got me in with just 1 hour notice. Many thanks. (They also did my second year one, lets hope I get to keep coming back every year)

2021-11-02Very professional environment. Rob, the artist that did my tat, was understanding, patient and very through. He did an amazing job. There were other artists there as well and all customers appeared satisfied. The place is clean and made me feel very comfortable to be there! Im definitely returning!

2021-09-22I made an appointment with an artist prior to Covid, for June 2020. I totally understood that the appointment would have to be rescheduled due to restrictions. About 2-3 months after the shop had reopened, I called to ask for an update. I was told that it would be rescheduled and they were working through the list on 7/31/2020. In December 2020 I had reached out again, and was told that the artist was having personal complications that were delaying her scheduling. I completely understood, but asked for my deposit back. I was advised that they do not do refunds, and to give my availability to schedule an appointment. It is 9/22/21 and I have never been reached out to to schedule this appointment, and have never received my deposit back. A deposit is meant to keep an appointment reserved, and although I totally understand that the reasoning my appointment had been cancelled was out of anyone’s control, my appointment had never been rescheduled. No appointment = no right to keep my deposit. I got the tattoo elsewhere, I’m not giving this shop any more money than they already have of mine.

2021-08-31Kris is BEYOND talented! I have been waiting for her since before the shutdown and let me tell you she is worth the wait! I would never go to anybody else again. I only had this tattoo for less than 24 hours and have gotten such speechless reactions from people. She has a customer for life! Thanks kris

2021-05-31Saw this shop driving by. Walked in and was able to get an appointment in 2 days. Great shop, clean professional.. Did some small tattoos. Reggie who did my small tattoos was great. He was able to exactly replicate the writing for the tattoos I wanted. Even was kind enough to touch up an old tattoo. Going back for more. Thank you Reggie. 👍

2021-10-04After being on waiting list, got my appointment with Kay in July 2021. Showed up on appointment day…shop is close. After calling for 2 weeks, I got another appointment…showed up again, this time he’s working on another person, said he got schedule mixed up and will call me to reschedule. Still no call back as of 10/4/21. I’m in the same predicament as previous customers, losing deposit for the shop and artist fault, very unprofessional and I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go there.

2019-09-30Kris was phenomenal. Even though my tattoo was very simple compared to what she is capable of, she took her time doing it, telling me that she “ wants it to be 1000% perfect.” I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and The Art House to anyone who wants quality work. — April

2019-07-22My new go to place!I came across The Art House Tattoo while doing some research online. There was a link to the shop’s Instagram page where the artists post their work. I followed them for a couple of weeks before deciding to book an appointment.I ended up booking with Kay Tatz & I am so glad that I did. He is very professional. When I got there I maybe had to wait five minutes before we started working on what I wanted. He took his time and was patient with me. I absolutely loved the work he did for me! I have been there 3 times now and have had a great experience each time. He is a skilled & talented young artist. His work station is clean and he takes the necessary sanitary measures as all tattoo artists should. I brought my brother to him as well, who has also been back to see Kay multiple times and is happy with his work. I would absolutely recommend to anyone!#kaytatz @kaytatz @thearthousetattoo
