Was visiting a friend in Jersey who has gotten two tattoos done by Lil Chris. Both of her pieces looked great so I trusted it. I got a small cross on my wrist- which is a pretty simple tattoo. When I unwrapped it I was immediately unhappy with it, sloppy work. Some pieces of the cross were crooked and thicker than the other pieces. I went back and he was EXTREMELY rude and nasty to me. First he told me Id have to wait at least 40 minutes to get it fixed. My friend and I left, cus we couldnt wait. He came downstairs from the shop and told me that he never told me Id have to wait, that hed take me right away... okay. Go back in and nicely apologized and explained that Im probably being picky but its going to be on my body FOREVER. He pretty much slammed my arm on the table, told me I was being picky and was extremely nasty the whole time he touched up the tattoo HE MESSED UP. This isnt my first tattoo, and I waited until the tattoo was completely healed before writing a review on him. I never write reviews but I had to say something because this guy was a total jerk. I will have to go to another artist to fix it. I will NEVER go back to this place again, my friend got a tattoo there at the same time. The other artists seem like they do good work.. Not Lil Chris best work & his attitude sucks. To respond to the owner who replied- I was aware he was in the middle of a client but I was unable to wait. He first told me I had to wait 40 minutes, and then changed the story when he got me and told me he told me he would take me right away- I apologized for the misunderstanding. I dont deny that he tried to correct the mistakes he made in the tattoo- my issue was with his general attitude towards me. I know he does great work, hes tattooed my friend twice and his pieces on her are great. I agree we did not click but I thought Id shared my experience & I still stand by it wasnt his best work. Thank you for your response

I have several tattoos from New York, and California but did not have from NJ....Everyone that had good ink i would ask where they got it...Neptune Tattooville was always mentioned....So i checked it out, talked to the artists, and worked up some concepts for what i wanted. worked with Dave on the initial concept for one piece, and Dan for another. Dan did the ink on both. this shop has it all -great artists who are creative and like doing interesting stuff, artists with personality and who actually like to work with the client and get into the process of creating the piece with you, and then actually execute with great work at fair prices. My wife worked with Eric and loved him too... The whole shop rocks, and as far as I am concerned i dont need to search any further....i just got both arms done and am already thinking about what to do next...Tattooville = the best shop in NJ

Unreal place....went in about two weeks ago and called to see if they can take walk ins. The guy on the phone was mad chill and said no problem come on in. When I walked in I showed them what I was lookin for....within 20 min I was in the room and gettin it done...Erik was my artist who hooked it up...he was an awesome dude and did sucha good job...this was only my second tattoo and the whole experience at this place blew away the first place I went to. Only thing I regret was I did not have cash and only had a credit card...I thought I could leave tip on the card but they only take cash...I felt super bad but Erik was really chill about it.....next time I come in which will be very soon after my experience and the way my tattoo healed Im definitely going to bring in cash and hook Erik up from las time and for my third tattoo...cant wait

My husband and I got tattoos here by Bryan. He did a great job and was honest about what was going to look good without coming off as rude. This is the first time we both found a tattoo artist we both like. Those people looking for something that isnt the "traditional American" style, dont be scared off because my tattoos are not that style and he did an EXCELLENT job! My husband even returned to see Bryan for a memorial piece for his military working dog, and is planning on visiting again when he is home on leave in August. The shop itself is clean and well decorated. The staff has always been friendly and welcoming. My ONLY complaint would be for more comfortable seating in the waiting area, but that is being picky its a tattoo shop not a movie theater.

I have been getting tattooed at Tattooville for almost 5 years now. I recently moved around the country and visited a lot of shops. None of them really compared to Tattooville as far as the professionalism, friendliness, good vibes, and overall welcome to their shop. The shop is full of some of the most talented guys in New Jersey, and all of them have their own style which provides a broad range of tattooing to suit almost anyone. The shop is kept extremely clean, and all work areas are very sanitary. I recommend this shop to everyone, you can not go wrong with any artist in this establishment. Thank you guys, for all the good times, and great tattoos over the years. It truly is appreciated.

PETE WAS VERY RUDE AND WHEN I CALLED AND ASKED FOR THE OWNER HE TOLD ME IT WILL BE A WASTED PHONE CALL BECAUSE THEY WILL AGREE WITH HIS BAD ATTITUDE! BAD BUSINESS.MY DAUGHTER GOT NERVOUS AND WANTED TO WAIT A DAY AND PETE TREATED HER BADLY.SHE GAVE HIM 20 DOLLARS FOR THE 5 MINUTES TIME HE SPENT AND HE DIDNT EVEN SAY THANK YOU ! I HAVE BEEN IN RETAIL FOR 40 YEARS AND NEVER TREATED MY CUSTOMERS THIS WAY. ITS A SHAME BECAUSE I KNOW PEOPLE THAT GO THERE AND I EXPECTED A GOOD EXPERIENCE.SOME PEOPLE LET THINGS GO TO THEIR HEAD AND FORGET THEIR MANNERS.HE ALSO SAID HE WANTED TO GO HOME AND EAT DINNER AND HE WASNT HAPPY HE WORKED A 12 HOUR SHIFT.MAYBE IT IS TIME FOR A CAREER CHANGE PETE!

Horrible service. These people are condescending, rude, and outright insulting for no reason whatsoever. I called to ask some basic questions and I was insulted before being hung up on. I called again and the same as before, insulted right before being hung up on. I guarantee 90% of the positive reviews on here are from the owner and his employees trying to boost their reputation to try and mask their poor service and the various justified and truthful bad reviews. I also guarantee the owner, or one of his cronies will respond to this review in their usual condescending tone. You want a tattoo? Go somewhere else. Youre bound to have a better experience.

Based off reviews on here and recommendations from friends, I decided to go to Tattooville for one of the artists to try and clean up some shotty work done in the past, a half sleeve to be exact. I was able to get a walk-in with Chuck (only because he had a cancellation), and Im glad I did. He was polite and had some really good ideas on how to fix up my arm. It took 2 sessions about 2 hours each and he got a ton of work done and performed it above my expectations. His lines are clean and his shading really brought out the images even though my tattoo is only black and grey. Ill be recommending him and using him for my future tattoos. Thanks Chuck!
