Reviews of American Tattoo Vista (Tattoo Shop)

Delane Johnson

Got my first tattoo. Sam Phillips was wonderful and I'm very happy. Little pain (and I expected a lot!) Everyone is friendly and all the customers seemed very happy with their results. Highly recommend this place and Sam!

Scott Fritz

Best tattoo shop in north county San Diego. Plenty of talented friendly artists. Very professional tattoo shop.

Katia Hansen

It was wonderful working with Sarah to design exactly the tattoo I wanted. She took my pre-schoolesque sketch and my description of what I wanted and created a fantastic draft that we worked together on to make it exactly what I wanted. Everyone at the shop was friendly, and it was very clean and professionally run. Thank you Sarah and American Tattoo!

I'm already in love with my tattoo and it isn't finished yet. Micha made my vision for my tattoo more beautiful than I imagined. I would recommend Micha to anyone that asks who to go to. Friendly staff. Thanks so much American Tattoo!

Most of my artwork was done at American Tattoo. Absolutely the best in N.County. Sarah and Sam are exceptional artists. I send all inquiries about getting work down to this shop.

Kirk did our tattoos and they came out lovely! He was super friendly so I wasn't too too nervous about my first tattoo; he made it seem like a piece of cake. My man also got the same tattoo and it came out perfect. We're definitely coming back in the future for our next ones!

Artoo is an amazing artist. He did my Stitch tattoo on my ankle. He also did my boyfriends dragon on his arm. But all the artists are amazing so far i've gotten 1 tattoo from Sam, 1 and a finish up on another one from Hunter and 2 from Artoo :D Absolutely love this shop :D

The tattoo artists are sexy

Roman

Walked in one day with no knowledge of tattoos whatsoever. I knew what I wanted and showed a rough sketch to Jon, “Artoo”. He turned my sketch into an incredible piece, we agreed on a price and within 1 hour of walking in I was getting my first tattoo. It came out great to say the least, went back the next month for a chest piece and it was just as exceptional. Great place, great people, highly recommend! -Roman

Hunter was my tattoo artist, he did a great job with the drawing that I wanted. Also the prices were great, I was there for 3 1/2 hours and payed 350. Every tattoo that I saw leaveing the shop was well done and all of the staff were professional.

Micah Caudle is Fantastic!!!

Evelyn Champion

My sister got a tattoo and didnt firm up the price before hand. Her mistake. Art is expensive. The artist was nice. It looks good!

James L

Very friendly service at this place. We were helped immediately and got exactly what we wanted. Can’t ask for more. Definitely a quality tattoo place.

gregoire texier

Rad shop, incredible artists!

Denise Levee

Relocating to the area my husband (whom is an artist as well) and I stopped into look at the shop and inquire about a booth. Talk about awkward and unwelcoming! The tattooist did not even come out to greet us and sent us away with the girl sitting up front. Definitely wont be recommending their shop.

Kirk does amazing work.

Carroll Cincotta

My husband and I got our first tattoos last night at the age of 50. Wow, we love our ink. Hunter was our artist and did an amazing job designing and tattooing both of us. We are proud to show people our art. Thank you Hunter

Cora Crandall

Sarah Spinks has been my tattoo artist for over a decade. I live out of state, and it's such a treat to get tattooed every time I visit. Her passion and talent have kept me coming back all these years.

Chris Hammond

My last tattoo a decade ago was by Sam. So stoked they moved into Vista and was able to go back. Great work, amazing attention to detail, in a very clean shop with great people.

Doug Opoka

Hunter did an awesome job on my tattoo.
