Reviews of Venture Tattoo Studio (Tattoo Shop)

Me and my sister were pierced by Jeff. First off, this man is beautiful. He is a work of art. My sister went first and had a targus piercing and I had got a daith piercing. We talked throughout the entire process. Jeff gave us details on how long he's been in business and how he suggests we take care of our piercings. Last year, I had the misfortune of getting a mall piercing and Jeff can fix it so I'll be back. I'm now much more comfortable getting pierced, even though I have several I think he's definitely one of the best around. So we're lucky to have him as a local piercer

I will not get a tattoo anywhere else. The attention to detail and creativity here is the best thus far.

Marcus Noll

I can’t stress how much I love the first tattoo I got. Nate is brilliant

Jeff did my septum piercing and I couldn't be happier. He was very professional, answered all my questions, and helped calm my nerves. I've had multiple body piercings done in the past, but this one was definitely the smoothest and least painful. Jeff absolutely knows what he's doing, and I would recommend him to anyone.

Gail Brooks

Jeff did my helix piercing. He's great I experienced No pain. I will be back this week!

Heads up that they no longer do piercing here, that function moved to luxe piercing boutique.

Great place to go for a professional piercing!! I haven't gotten a tattoo from here so can't speak to that but the piercing guy is awesome.

Let me start by saying I have drove from Detroit to denver for tattoos and this is my second time coming to Chicago for tattoos. Out of all the tattoos I have had done not only was this shop the cleanest but it was also the best work I have had done. I came in with with a small idea but nothing set in stone and within 10 minutes Eris had a great idea that worked out awesome. The whole staff has been great since I first started booking the appointment back in may. The person that gave the negative review is not telling the truth because they emailed me Everytime as well as calling me multiple times to go through ideas. I'm very indecisive and they took care of me 100%. I spent more money for a tattoo at another shop that didn't even seem worth it but this time I can say it was worth it and I WILL BE COMING BACK for more in the next 6 months. ✌

Get service! Jeff who pierced my ear, really knew what he was very informative and even gave great advice on ear care. Also very clean inside. Overall great place!

They repeatedly ignore emails and calls. They'll say they didn't get your email and picture after sending its 3+ times. If you look at the pictures the artist/company post, there's no one of A darker skin. Coincidence? Don't think so. They ask for "placement photos" in my opinion to see who they'll be servicing. Not where. I've emailed them over 7 times with each time them saying they didn't get anything or didn't get the picture.

Shout to Eris and everybody at Venture tattoos for helping me make my tattoo experience a great one. I got a tattoo of my late father and he did an amazing job. I am very satisfied and recommend Venture tattoos to anybody looking to get high quality professional artwork done. Thanks for everything man. I'll be back real soon.

Awesome

Venture is top notch. The artists not only produce great work, but are very friendly and easy to talk to. If you're looking to get black and grey done as well as realism, this is the place you have to go to.

German Garcia

I got my tattoo done by Joni and was very happy. He was very helpful and you can tell he takes a lot of pride in his job. The place itself is very nice, clean and organized. Parking is a bit of a hassle since its street parking and there's signs that say 2 hour parking only. I had the appointment at 10am and Joni immediately got started with the design. I wanted something original and he managed to come up with the perfect design and didn't mind changing a couple of things last minute. It took about an hour but it was well worth it. At 11am he got started and finished at 2pm with three 5 min breaks throughout. I completely recommend Venture tattoo and Joni for the amazing work he did. I will definitely be back and get more.

Layne McCabe

The guys were awesome. Very friendly and professional. They take pride in their work and it shows in the tattoos they produce. The shop is spotless, as are their tattoo practices. Can't wait to go back and start my half sleeve!

Mary Barsanti

Jeff was meticulous and kind while piercing my young 6 yr old daughter's ears. She was totally at ease and it was a great experience! Would highly recommend!

MJ Williams

Katie Shumowsky

Jeff the one that does the piercings is very professional and does an amazing job! I would 100% recommend him.

Caroline López-Martínez

Friendly service with a comfy environment. Great piercer on staff!

Catie Hendel

Wonderful shop to go to and worth my hour drive. Eris killed both of my tattoos. First I came for Frankenstein's monster and returned for the Bride of Frankenstein. Will definitely return in the future. The shop is beautiful and all of the artists are welcoming.

Sean Folino

great artists on staff.. currently working on a traditional sleeve with Junior. I couldn't be happier with the results.

Jimmy Armstrong

This is the only place I will go to for ink. Everyone at the studio is extremely professional. The studio is clean and comfortable. Eris is one of the best tattoo artists you can find. You won't be disappointed.

Unprofessional

Samantha George

Loved getting my septum pierced here! Jeff is AMAZING. Incredibly down to Earth and walked me through everything before we got started. We had emailed back and forth a few times because I had questions, and I arrived feeling nervous, but more at ease because we were able to communicate beforehand. When I walked in, I was greeted by various different artists, and asked if I wanted a water or anything else to drink. A nice clean and friendly atmosphere is a huge plus. Jeff is friendly, professional, and super quick at the piercing! He took time to answer questions and work around any needs I that had. Better yet, the piercing barely even stung. (plus, it looks hella cute) I will definitely be coming back for any other tattoo or piercings in the future. Thanks, Jeff!

Chris Heinz

Eris did an incredible job on my forearm tattoo!!! Highly recommend getting a tattoo from him. It is my favorite one so far.

Derrick Lara

Dope shop, good music and environment

CJ Kell

Had a great experience all around. These guys are passionate and pay close attention to detail and it shows in their exemplary work. Working with Eris was relaxed and fun. I am a repeat customer for life!

Dawn D

There's a lady behind the counter here. I don't know if she's the owner. I hope not. She's prejudice against minorities especially people of african descent. Go elsewhere. I won't come back.

Sean McConachie

Jeff is the best. My fiance had her nose pierced by him. I'm a nurse, and I like to think I know a thing or two about sterile technique. Jeff certainly does and his understanding on skin care and the recommendations he makes are more than appropriate, they are incredibly thought out. Thanks Jeff for caring, the average person may not notice, but the nurses likely think your swell!

Eric Smith

Best tattoo artists in the city. My experience here was amazing. I had to book my appointment a few months in advance but it was worth the wait. People come here from all over the world to get tattooed. The staff are very professional and helpful. The space itself is very open and welcoming. My artist, Eris Qesari was awesome and took my input on exactly the kind of design I wanted. He is very dedicated to high quality work. Make sure you send all specifics required for appointments on their website. Thank you Venture tattoo.

Chris Rapacz

Great artist !! friendly and super clean studio ! go check them out if you want great piece of art ! or piercing :-)

Allie R

Everyone here is amazing. The shop itself is so clean and comfortable and the artists are truly gifted. My boyfriend has a larger piece on his arm (including a cover up) by Joni and I was lucky enough to have a couple small tattoos done by him too. Amazing work, and well worth the money. If you are getting something permanent on your body, this is where you want to be. I would never go anywhere else.

Jinno Redovan

Great place to get a tattoo. Very clean and friendly.

Isaac Rivera

Jeff was great! Totally accommodating. He pierced my septum and was more than happy to ensure that it was as perfect as he could possibly make it. Extremely friendly guy. He eliminates that stereotype about piercers being unfriendly and intimidating. He does a great job of making you feel comfortable and ensures that you leave with the knowledge you need to maintain the health of your piercing. The shop had a nice vibe going for it. Very well lite and open, which is a stark contrast to many other tattoo and piercing shops. If your looking for a friendly, well lite, and open tattoo and piercing shop then look no further. Venture Tattoo is your place.

Mary Black

jeff pierced my nose and he is the best piercer ever he is super chill. everything’s sterilized and pricing is different with every stud you use but it was so amazing and he was so nice to me. 11/10 recommend jeff.

Cassie Irizarry

The artist's here are beyond amazing. Such a calm environment, I love it!! -Seriously couldn't have picked a better place for my last tattoo.

Matthew McAuliffe

I've been going to Eris for about 5 years now and will not go to any other artist. Venture Tattoo Studio is a great place with a relaxing atomosphere. Highly recommend them.

Matt k

Eris is by far the best artist I've been to. His work is amazing! The shop is clean, everyone is really, really nice. I can't say enough good things about this place and the artists there! The work speaks for itself!
