BEST TATTOO PARLOR AROUND!Craig is the greatest !! Extremely friendly staff that made my entire experience comfortable. I got four separate tattoos and each of them seemed like Craig pulled the image from my brain — it looked exactly like I wanted!! Super great prices! 11/10 definitely recommend Crave Tattoo.

I walked in and was able to get a tattoo with no appointment! Rudy free-handed my sons name on my hand and I absolutely love it! In the past, I had a piece done by Craig and is still one of my favorite tattoos! I will be returning for sure!!

Craig is absolutely incredible. He did my brothers memorial tattoo for me and got me an amazing price. Chris did my keep fighting suicide awareness tattoo and it came out beautifully. The place is clean, organized and craig and all of his employees are extremely professional. Love them! WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK FOR MORE

How could anyone give this place a good review? I guess some people dont mine low end work on their bodys. Good tattoos arent cheap and cheap tattoos arent good. Craig might raise his price to hide the cheap quality. I left scared and was pouring out blood after his apprentice dug his needle in my arm several times. I had to go elsewhere to have it finished, repaired and mostly covered up. The scares will always be raised up though. Do your self a favor and go elsewhere. I have both sleeves chest and back done. I have a lot of hours in the chair but definitely not his.

Craig the owner was a cool dude to deal with over the phone! After my wife and I arrived after closing time posted Craig said no problem and took us right in. Claire is a phenomenal artist and did my wife’s and I’s tats just how we wanted them after changing the font and size a couple times after laying them out on our desired spots. Claire showed the up most respect and had no problem working with us! In the end she did a fantastic job, and we couldn’t be happier with the work she did! Thanks and if we r ever back in town we will be sure to see you guys again!

Craig, the owner and an artist at Crave, not only does a fantastic job with his art he also makes you feel like his new friend. He is a genuine person with Amazing Art Skills. He can design 100% Original Ink with you, that you will be proud to make a permanent part of your body. Crave Tatto and Art Gallery will not disappoint you.

Very very sweet artist. He was so kind and understanding. Unfortunately my tattoo is already 50% faded and it’s been less than 6 months. My tattoo is mostly blown out lines and most of the people who see it can’t read what it says. It was a tribute tattoo and meant the world to me but the final product makes me cry when I look at it (and not in a good way). The tattoo unfortunately doesn’t look anything like the stencil that was on my body. Needless to say i am so so sad.

The first piercer they had was great, the new one isn’t so great. She said she’s been doing it for years, but the way she did my piercings you could tell she was new. She didn’t even do it correctly. She says smart comments, idk if she’s trying to be funny or not but i dont Recommend.

I am amazed at all the positive reviews Im seeing considering Craig, the owner, did not do a good job on my tattoo at all. Im not sure how it is to put a triangle on someones side, but he sure made it a chore. This was my fourth tattoo so I went in expecting someone who knew what they were doing.During the prep and creation of the stencil he said, You know, I think all artists are a little autistic. Personally, I dont think that is very good talk coming from someone you dont know anything about. Maybe Im being too sensitive, or maybe Im just picking out selective things to further prove my point about my bad experience, but I still dont think he should be saying things like that. To each their own.While I was on the chair and actually getting the tattoo, he did not listen to me at all. Of course I was reacting to the pain, but when I would ask him to give me a minute so I could get a drink of water or just breathe for a second he would ignore me completely. He said, Sorry. I just go into a zone. Thatd be okay if you werent literally causing me severe pain (dont get a tattoo on your ribs if you cant handle the pain on your inner arm or somewhere simple like that). He would start up again when I was clearly not prepared for it, and he just didnt seem to care about my readiness or comfort.He drew up the stencil, which looked great on paper, but its like he began free-handing it when he was actually doing the tattooing part. The lines are not straight, they are different thicknesses and the colors are not at all how they are meant to look. I had to tell him the order of the colors of a rainbow... like the color wheel. There is no excuse to not know the color wheel if you call yourself an artist.Now, to be fair, he was very accommodating. He was supposed to close at 11, but we did not finish until 11:45. I walked in at 9:45. The time was not bad considering I didnt have any kind of appointment. He also gave very good direction on how to clean the tattoo including some tips Ive never heard before.I had a bad feeling in my gut as soon as this guy started talking to me, and I regret not listening to it.Thankfully, I went to a place I trust a whole lot more to see if they can fix it, and it can be fixed. I regret giving this man $80 for a simple triangle with some colors in it.
