The Arcade Oceanside Tattoo

I'm on vacation and 3 of us wanted a tattoo. I messaged them and they got back quickly. They were able to get us all in the same day. We all wanted matching tattoos. Myles was our tattoo artist and our tattoos turned out PERFECT and EXACTLY what we wanted. I would definitely recommend Myles. Thanks again Myles!

Myles did my Friday 13th tattoo. I believe it was Samantha who gauged my 2nd set of lobe piercings. Both were awesome friendly and great at what they do. Will deff be returning.

Terrible customer service. I'm almost fully covered in tattoos, I understand the process a bit but Im sick of the attitudes some of these people have. I go in with my girl and her brother, they wanted small tattoos and I decided to hop on with a small spontaneous one as well. I tried to get a small tattoo on my big toe and the artist comes up and sizes it up and says ok that will be $100. I get there are minimums as an artist, time is money. But I declined and he said better for me anyways and walked away like a punk. That's how you guys deal with customers? Even the two girls at the front, it should not be a hassle or a bad experience before the tattoo is even sketched up. Terrible attitudes. You guys work in customer service whether you like it or not

I had a horrible experience there. I called before walking in because I was looking to get a minimal tattoo. One of the girls said they’d work with my budget since it would be a small tattoo. As soon as we walked in we were received with the complete opposite of what we were told a couple minutes over the phone. I ended up leaving because they were just so rude & unfriendly for no given reason. Im upset I drove out to their shop but I’ll gladly take my business else where. Horrible horrible customer service. Id leave less than a 1 star if possible for their customer service.

Shop is super clean and professional. The staff is very friendly. All around great, inviting people. Myles was my artist and did a fantastic job. Incredible line work and a great dude. Excited to come back!

Clark Kent is an amazing artist! He was extremely patient and receptive to my ideas.and gave me an incredible tattoo. Will definitely be coming back for my next tat

Friendly, well priced, quality work, offered walk-Ins which was great because I was only in town for four days

I came here for my 40th bday last month. I was tattooed by Myles. His line work is amazing! I'll definitely be back for more work

This shop is amazing! Very clean shop with a professional staff. They worked us in on a very tight schedule and gave us a beautiful tattoo for a Great price! Be sure to check out Myles work!

I walked in late and knowing it was, didn't expect a tattoo. The assistance I received was IMPECCABLE on when I should return the next day (which I did). The service was top notch both visits and Myles, who did my tattoo, was incredibly professional. I have already made an appointment to return again, and the customer service was once again next level. This is the first time I've ever returned to a location or have had the same artist again.

Super clean and professional! Got an appointment very quickly with Martin. He was great and the quality of work is incredible!

Had work done with Martin. He is a really great guy, did really great work, and I can’t wait for the next piece! The shop itself has a lot of great artists and artwork there. It's really clean, great music playing, and a great place to get your next tattoo. Most of the surrounding parking is 2-hour parking, so if you need to park for longer, call the shop, and they'll recommend where to park

Awesome place to go get a American traditional tattoo, staff was very helpful and the store was clean and we'll kept. A lot of history is in that building so make sure to stop and look around while your there.

Great artists, Nate Leinfelder is who I go to and my first piece by him was awesome. Have my 2nd appointment setup next week with him for my next piece

The line was way to long.waiting was like 2 to 3 hours for a 45$+tip tattoo I was hella trund off on the tattoo size for the price and the kind of tattoo that you had to pick from on Friday 13th.

Great artists, phenomenal work, I’m in there almost every week and the desk staff is always nice and the artists are professional and respectful and always put out top-tier work

The staff was great, and my wife and I both got a tattoo. Chris and Clark both took the time to make sure that everything was the way we wanted. Highly recommend this place even if you don't want a tattoo. The art or flash is incredible.

Full disclosure I did not get work done here. However I did I come in to inquire about some help for one of my stretched lobes that is very unhappy. The young man at the front desk was very polite but did let me know this shop doesn’t do piercings. Even so, he was very personable and gave me good advice about what kind of jewelry I should seek out. He did inform me that the sister store Maritime Tattoo does do piercings and he gave me their card.

Additionally he went to the trouble of giving me a recommendation for a shop right around the corner that specializes in body piercing jewelry. He went so far as to walk out on the sidewalk with me and point and direct me to where to go. The store he mentioned was closed (he said it might be) but now I know where to go!

Was definitely impressed with his motivation to help me out even though I wasn’t able to pay for a service at their shop. I should have gotten his name in order to shout him out but I forgot. Mad respect and thank you for the recommendation!

Great experience. The staff were super attentive and they had walk in availability. My husband got a new tattoo and was in and out in a short period with high quality new ink. Would recommend and will be back again!

Amazing work. Friendly. Would have tipped not more but i don't carry cash and pretipped while having a tiny panic attack due to social anxiety acting up. Would def recommend and go back if I'm ever in the city again.
