I went in today as a walk in, just hoping there'd be availability. No one scoffed at me for not having an appointment and I got to sit with Niko, who did a great job. He was fast, did a perfect tattoo and even touched up an old tattoo that needed some serious help.  Super friendly peeps! I'll go there again. Read Less

I will never go to any other tattoo shop other than Hidden City ever again. The staff was super chill and professional. All of the artists there are great at what they do. However, the piece Juan Torres did for me last night is absolutely amazing. I can't wait to go back to get more work done. Quit looking around and go to Hidden City Tattoo...you won't regret it!

My daughter and I just had Randy do a little work today I must say I'm quite impressed I absolutely love my arm. Not only is he a great artist and professional, but the shop is extremely clean and work area is very sterile, thats just a part of it. I have to say I am quite impressed with the work. The other artist in there too are very down to earth and the work I saw today from them was amazing! They definantly have skills! truly can't wait to get more, they put their heart in it. Thanks again Randy. If you want work done definitely check them out❣️Christine Read Less

If you're looking for a professional artist to stick with for years, come check this place out they will not disappoint! Always a clean atmosphere and professional friendly artists. I would give them 20 stars if that was an option!! Read Less

HORRIBLE experiences at this shop. Went in with my boyfriend to get a tattoo and an industrial piercing. Piercer did a HORRENDOUS job aligning the two piercings on my ear and my boyfriends tattoo ended up fading after only ONE month. When trying to get what we originally had done touched up and fixed, the owner of the shop refused service for the tattoo and piercing. He told us that the piercer isn't apart of their department and we should come back to talk to him about a refund. As for the tattoo, many of the shops we both have been to will do free touch ups on the tattoos that were done within that store. We expected shop owner Juan Torres to keep the standards of touch ups that any other shop holds but NOPE! He was trying to charge us almost just as much as we had originally paid. We both ended up going to a much friendlier/professional shop to get what we had done at hidden city fixed and they did it for FREE. Do NOT go to this shop if you want a good experience, it's honestly not worth it. Read Less

Juan is very talented, not only in old school but in any genre really. He is also pretty amazing at cover ups, and I know all too well. He has not only fixed, added to, but has also given great insight to my sleeve that has a lot of meaning. His pricing can't be beat and the other guys are just great to be around! The atmosphere is very laid back and overall the place you want to go to get inked! Read Less

So I usually go to Juan, but he wasn't available so he said he can get me in with a different guy. I was hesitant at first but I said okay... anyways I went with Andy. Super chill dude! He did an awesome job. Took his time and did super clean work. Definitely check him out!! I'm sure all the other guys are as good, but I will only go to Juan and Andy! Read Less

This tattoo shop is amazing for any kind of work done, when you walk in there they acknowledge you right away, they are professional, courteous and so talented and skilled with there art, when your there you fell like you are at home and they take there time with there art they don't rush it to get to the next person because they want your art to be and well be the finest. I my self have had tattoos done in other places and its turned out to be the opposite of what I wanted so money down the drain, Hidden City Tattoo well give you what you want with even higher expectations that you well be like WOW, I myself have been tattoed by PIKIN and Juan and dam they get down, I have seen the other guys Gerardo and speedys work and there awesome as well, I have never gotten so many complaments as I have with there work and I tell them hit up Hidden City no other place like it in all of San Diego. I am so happy I finally after so many years I have found the perfect place, and am more then excited about the art on me, all post pics as soon as am done with it all, Go to Hidden City you well have no regrets and they are so clean , there compliant with all OSHA regulations and you don't have to worry about there ink or equipment its all clean and there inks are good inks.

Stopped in by accident. I was shopping around for a place with a reasonable price for the simple tattoo I wanted. I was on my way to another place when I drove into the parking lot and saw hidden city. I decided to get a quote. I walked in and it was a bit intimidating at first. This is my first tattoo. Speedy was very sweet and quoted me a very fair price. So, I decided to go for it. The tattoo turned out perfect! I was ok all the way through but got woozy at the end. I did not feel well at all but speedy was very nice and made me feel better. Anyway, GREAT experience. I will def use him again if I get another tattoo. I will also send my friends there.FYI- went to the following places before I found Hidden City: Frontline tattoo, Tracy's in oside. BOTH were well overpriced. Wanted to charge me double and triple what I paid. RIP off! Read Less

Found out about Speedyink Gonzalez through a friend of mine.  Looked at his work and decided to make an appointment to start on my sleeves!  I have to say im very impressed with the studio and his work.  He will be the only one doing black and gray work on my arm! Read Less
