Michael Alatorre is not reliable.  He was supposed to work the Tattoo Expo in San Jose, CA. He failed to show and keep an appointment, he did not answer phone calls, texts or DMs.   Unreliable aptly describes this individual.  If I could give zero stars I would.  Stay away from this guy.   To Mr Alatorre, if you didn't want to or couldn't do the simple piece I wanted then communicate that to your customer.  Don't ghost them, be a man and business professional.UPDATE:  To address Mario V, business owner:  Mr Alatorre is your employee and he totally disrespected this customer.  The way he conducts himself if a reflection of the quality of artist that he really is, being completely crappy with customer service should be of concern for any of his future customers at your business.  The way you behave outside of your work place has always had a direct affect on your work place!

This is by far the most unprofessional business I have ever experienced. When you call, they give you some dudes phone number to text to make an appointment and when you do text the number, he either never gets back to you and when he does he says "i'll just let you know when im at the shop." and then never tells you when he's there. They'll say they're open, so you go and they're closed. So unprofessional and give you the run around. Would not recommend if it saved my life.to reply to the owner: the last time i texted the man he told me he would get back to me when he got to the shop and NEVER got back to me. thanks for your (incorrect) input, though.

Dude was rude and sketch as hell. I came in to ask about the jewelry available and he was very vague and rude, like he was in a hurry/didn't want to bother. No one else was in the store so, I see no reason as to why he was unnecessarily rude. I asked for a curved barbell for my vertical labret piercing and he just insisted on a half inch size when I wasn't sure. As a tattoo artist myself, if I see any client unsure about anything, I make sure I try to provide any clarification or options they need in order to help them feel secure about their choice, even if it seems insignificant BUT that's just me. He goes to the back and then comes back with a barbell jewelry in his hands and just says "5 bucks." Didn't even offer a little baggie to keep it in, I don't even know if it was properly sanitized or if he just found it somewhere in the back lol, I was over the whole interaction, so I just decided to buy it to get the fuck out of there, looking back I should've just kept my 5 bucks lol. If you wanna get rude treatment, this is your place. Read Less

So I didn't want to write this review but I MUST because it's bothering me so much. I came in on Monday July 9th, 2018 to get my inverse vertical labret (Ashley piercing). I believe his name was Mario. I came w my sister so she can watch the whole thing and he hesitated to let her in, and that was already fishy to me because I mean I've got serval piercings before from other shops and never cared for someone to come in and watch.  but anyway he ended up letting her watch, as I'm sitting there about to get my piercing he had marked it too high (I believe) so I told him a little more centered on my lip... as he was about to pierce my lip he didn't use the clamp, he then tried to put the piercing in and the needle came out before the piercing went all the way through because "I moved" when I really just flinched...so I just felt him tugging on my lip for a cool while I was literally about to pass out, and he saw me get pale and told me to lay back for a sec until I felt better, so since he couldn't get the piercing to go through he had to get the needle again and pierce it AGAIN. (MIND THE FACT I WAS ABOUT TO PASS OUT) I let him do his thing again, this time using the clamp and he got the piercing through. So I walk out without even looking at it because of how shitty I felt. Get home to it being TOO low and it's crooked it's not even straight.  the bar he put was too short and it's been sinking into my lip because how SWOLLEN my lip got. Texted and called today to see if I can come in to get it changed out to a longer bar and he couldn't even msg me when he got to the shop. So I got it changed out myself!!!! Such a bad experience I should've done a little more research, I'm extremely unsatisfied w my experience. Especially bcz I paid $50 wish I could've have a 5 Star. ‍ Read Less

Came to Modern Ink as a last minute thing to do on a Sunday. Lucky for me, Israel aka Silent, was available to take me as a last minute walk-in. After explaining to him what I really wanted I waited about 15 mins. He came back and the writing was perfect! He was able to capture my vision. I requested to have it done on my left rib. This definitely will NOT be the last time I get work done by him. It's so hard to find or trust good artists. The pain was not what people mentioned it to be, it was tolerable. His customer service was exceptional and exceeded my expectations all around. Read Less

These ink matters are the best. I initially had my tat done by Isreal. He replicated my father's brand perfectly. I then went back one month later for touch up done by Robert and he did a magnificent job, at no additional charge. I absolutely love my tattoo and I plan on going back and having tattoo rejuvenation done on one of my older tattoos that has faded (from a different shop.) I definitely will have Robert do the tat  work because he has a very light hand and it hardly feels like you're getting the needles put inside you. He was very nice and pleasant to talk to and quick in his work. In addition I healed up quite nicely. My daughter got her nose pierced as well, she is very pleased and the price was half the cost what I paid in another state. So thank you guys for the great work and we love ya. Read Less

I've been here 3 times within the last month trying to get a piercing and each time I'm told that the piercer isn't there. The first time I showed up, I was promptly greeted and was asked what it was that I needed- the guy was great and apologized for the piercer not being there. He took my name and number down and told me I'd be contacted so I could come in and get my piercing. I walked out expecting to get a call within the first 2 days but that never happened. Fast forward to the next week and that time I called ahead and asked if the piercer would be in that day; again, I was told that he wasn't there, but that he'd be in after 5 PM and that if I wanted to give my name and number, I'd be contacted when he was in. I declined to leave my number this time since I didn't get a call back last time, but did say I'd show up later that day. I show up in the evening after 5 and guess what! The piercer wasn't there, but I still decided to give the shop another try the following week.I called the shop again today ready to get my piercing and was told that the piercer would be in 5PM to close. I was stoked I'd finally be able to get my piercing this week! Well, I show up after 5 and once again, the piercer isn't there! The guy that helped me in the front apologized and asked if I wanted to leave my name and number. I told him I had already been there 3 times and had left my name and number and had never gotten a call back. Once again, he apologized for the inconvenience. I told him it was okay and that I'd find another shop to go to. I was really looking forward to trying this shop out after having it recommended to me by a couple of friends! 2 stars for the awesome guy in the front for being so nice and doing what he could to give me great customer service.

It's so chill there. The piercer makes you feel so comfortable. He's also straight forward with switching out piercings and maintenance as well as after care. The shop is so clean and well organized. The piercer Mario also gives you a complimentary mouth wash to start you off on the right foot. I thought that was pretty thoughtful, haven't gone to one place that takes the time or cares enough to do that. I recommend the shop and Mario. I'll be going there from now on for my piercings, that says a lot about the shop. Read Less

Michael Alatorre is not reliable.  He was supposed to work the Tattoo Expo in San Jose, CA. He failed to show and keep an appointment, he did not answer phone calls, texts or DMs.   Unreliable aptly describes this individual.  If I could give zero stars I would.  Stay away from this guy.   To Mr Alatorre, if you didn't want to or couldn't do the simple piece I wanted then communicate that to your customer.  Don't ghost them, be a man and business professional.UPDATE:  To address Mario V, business owner:  Mr Alatorre is your employee and he totally disrespected this customer.  The way he conducts himself if a reflection of the quality of artist that he really is, being completely crappy with customer service should be of concern for any of his future customers at your business.  The way you behave outside of your work place has always had a direct affect on your work place!

This is by far the most unprofessional business I have ever experienced. When you call, they give you some dudes phone number to text to make an appointment and when you do text the number, he either never gets back to you and when he does he says "i'll just let you know when im at the shop." and then never tells you when he's there. They'll say they're open, so you go and they're closed. So unprofessional and give you the run around.

Dude was rude and sketch as hell. I came in to ask about the jewelry available and he was very vague and rude, like he was in a hurry/didn't want to bother. No one else was in the store so, I see no reason as to why he was unnecessarily rude. I asked for a curved barbell for my vertical labret piercing and he just insisted on a half inch size when I wasn't sure. As a tattoo artist myself, if I see any client unsure about anything, I make sure I try to provide any clarification or options they need in order to help them feel secure about their choice, even if it seems insignificant BUT that's just me. He goes to the back and then comes back with a barbell jewelry in his hands and just says "5 bucks." Didn't even offer a little baggie to keep it in, I don't even know if it was properly sanitized or if he just found it somewhere in the back lol, I was over the whole interaction, so I just decided to buy it to get the fuck out of there, looking back I should've just kept my 5 bucks lol. If you wanna get rude treatment, this is your place. Read Less

So I didn't want to write this review but I MUST because it's bothering me so much. I came in on Monday July 9th, 2018 to get my inverse vertical labret (Ashley piercing). I believe his name was Mario. I came w my sister so she can watch the whole thing and he hesitated to let her in, and that was already fishy to me because I mean I've got serval piercings before from other shops and never cared for someone to come in and watch.  but anyway he ended up letting her watch, as I'm sitting there about to get my piercing he had marked it too high (I believe) so I told him a little more centered on my lip... as he was about to pierce my lip he didn't use the clamp, he then tried to put the piercing in and the needle came out before the piercing went all the way through because "I moved" when I really just flinched...so I just felt him tugging on my lip for a cool while I was literally about to pass out, and he saw me get pale and told me to lay back for a sec until I felt better, so since he couldn't get the piercing to go through he had to get the needle again and pierce it AGAIN. (MIND THE FACT I WAS ABOUT TO PASS OUT) I let him do his thing again, this time using the clamp and he got the piercing through. So I walk out without even looking at it because of how shitty I felt. Get home to it being TOO low and it's crooked it's not even straight.  the bar he put was too short and it's been sinking into my lip because how SWOLLEN my lip got. Texted and called today to see if I can come in to get it changed out to a longer bar and he couldn't even msg me when he got to the shop. So I got it changed out myself!!!! Such a bad experience I should've done a little more research, I'm extremely unsatisfied w my experience. Especially bcz I paid $50 wish I could've have a 5 Star. ‍ Read Less

These ink matters are the best. I initially had my tat done by Isreal. He replicated my father's brand perfectly. I then went back one month later for touch up done by Robert and he did a magnificent job, at no additional charge. I absolutely love my tattoo and I plan on going back and having tattoo rejuvenation done on one of my older tattoos that has faded (from a different shop.) I definitely will have Robert do the tat  work because he has a very light hand and it hardly feels like you're getting the needles put inside you. He was very nice and pleasant to talk to and quick in his work. In addition I healed up quite nicely. My daughter got her nose pierced as well, she is very pleased and the price was half the cost what I paid in another state. So thank you guys for the great work and we love ya. Read Less

I've been here 3 times within the last month trying to get a piercing and each time I'm told that the piercer isn't there. The first time I showed up, I was promptly greeted and was asked what it was that I needed- the guy was great and apologized for the piercer not being there. He took my name and number down and told me I'd be contacted so I could come in and get my piercing. I walked out expecting to get a call within the first 2 days but that never happened. Fast forward to the next week and that time I called ahead and asked if the piercer would be in that day; again, I was told that he wasn't there, but that he'd be in after 5 PM and that if I wanted to give my name and number, I'd be contacted when he was in. I declined to leave my number this time since I didn't get a call back last time, but did say I'd show up later that day. I show up in the evening after 5 and guess what! The piercer wasn't there, but I still decided to give the shop another try the following week.I called the shop again today ready to get my piercing and was told that the piercer would be in 5PM to close. I was stoked I'd finally be able to get my piercing this week! Well, I show up after 5 and once again, the piercer isn't there! The guy that helped me in the front apologized and asked if I wanted to leave my name and number. I told him I had already been there 3 times and had left my name and number and had never gotten a call back. Once again, he apologized for the inconvenience. I told him it was okay and that I'd find another shop to go to. I was really looking forward to trying this shop out after having it recommended to me by a couple of friends! 2 stars for the awesome guy in the front for being so nice and doing what he could to give me great customer service.

My mom and I have gotten a lot of tattoos and have been to a lot of tattoo shops and out of all of them I think we found our new place. Highly recommend!!! Read Less

I went here to get my venom piercings and they were very nice. My piercer was the owner Mario. He said some weird sexual puns that I know where meant to be funny, but it still made me a little uncomfortable. Other than that, the shop was clean, he was nice. Told me all the aftercare instructions, and answered all my questions Read Less

Mario pierced my nose. He was fast and super chill. He carefully explained how to care for the piercing. After that he pierced my nose and I was out of there in less than 5 minutes.

I loved this place. They have individual section for each artist so it's more private which was awesome and tvs to watch during for each section, it was super clean. They were really nice. Had music playing but not loud like some places so we could still talk. I would definitely recommend this place. And will go back for future tattoos. Read Less

It's so chill there. The piercer makes you feel so comfortable. He's also straight forward with switching out piercings and maintenance as well as after care. The shop is so clean and well organized. The piercer Mario also gives you a complimentary mouth wash to start you off on the right foot. I thought that was pretty thoughtful, haven't gone to one place that takes the time or cares enough to do that. I recommend the shop and Mario. I'll be going there from now on for my piercings, that says a lot about the shop. Read Less
