Got my first tattoo here, the staff was very accommodating and easy to work with. The price was also not as high as other places. Definitely coming back for another tattoo!

Great clean shop, Keeli is an awesome artist. 4 hours for round 1 of my sleeve went by well in a comfortable atomosphere

Excellent tatoo work and good people. Mike Espinosa is a very talented and practiced artist. The facility is clean but stil has character (not sterile and bland.)

Black Pearl is an awesome place. Allyssa did a great job on my first tattoo. It was a loving tribute to my son Andrew. And I appreciate her professionalism and light touch! Thanks again Allyssa!

I love their work, they took what looks like an old turd and turned it into a new masterpiece. I am definitely coming back to get the rest of my s*** all covered up.

Over a year ago, I walked into the Black Pearl wanting a small rose tattoo. Due to the professionalism, atmosphere, and overall amazing artwork, I now have a piece spanning from my thigh to ribs. I highly recommend this shop and especially tattoo artist and owner, Mike Espinosa. I've given Mike rough explanations of my tattoo ideas, and he is able to transpose those into tattoos that are dead on to what I was imagining and wanting. My tattoo contains somewhat dark imagery, y...et Mike has created it to be beautiful and feminine, following the contours of my body. I have received numerous compliments on my tattoo with emphasis on the variant shades of grey that tie the entire piece together. If you want someone who will create a work of art using your body as the canvas, I would 100% suggest this shop. You will most definitely be a happy customer. I recommend making an appointment and get ready to listen to music or watch a movie while you get tattooed with pure talent. I feel very fortunate having a tattoo by such a phenomenal artist. Enjoy!!
