7 Seas Tattoo

I wish I could give a better review. I had a really good experience in the shop. Dan, the owner, was very friendly, and did a nice job interpreting what I wanted. The next day after I got my tattoo l noticed a lot of uneven ink-​bleed. When I emailed the shop to ask about it they didn’t respond. I waited another two weeks and emailed the shop again to get Dan’s feedback and ask his opinion about ways of fixing it, but with no response. Disappointed.

Can’t say enough good things about this place. Walked in yesterday for a small piece left with a sleeve outline. Dan was amazing, so easy to work with and I’m looking forward to going in again next week for color. I totally trust him and the shop has an awesome laid back vibe, no drama at all. This was just a really good experience and I can thank Unilocal for directing me here. Another hidden gem I would have never found without Unilocal

Great service, best tattoos, clean shop… Always a pleasure. Friendly staff and you’re guarantee to leave with a solid tattoo.

Brian is the shit!!! I go to him for all my stuff he is funny and entertaining and does really clean work !!!

I recently got my first tattoo! Alfie was nothing but patient and friendly, he made sure I was comfortable and everything was clean. They were super quick too! I would recommend him to anyone.

I got a simple small black tattoo, the work was clean, and fast. They did however took 50 min to get to me after my appointment time, i was bored out of my mind sitting there. The artist there are talented so it was worth it.

Thor knows how to get down! He’s done all of my tattoos and I always get so many compliments in the street. I always make sure to give him the credit and I always send people his way. He specializes in traditional tattoos.

Dan is tha MAN!!! He took care of my first tattoo it was bigger than what I expected at first but the design he drew up for me was to much to resist. He walked me through the steps without any confusion since it was my first one and I am very pleased with the results. The colors are bright, healing time was nothing 7 days plus every detail of the tat looks sharp!!! I’ll be back for my next one (which am itching bad to go get)!!!

Dan was absolutely amazing! This place has some really cool people, awesome vibe and very talented workers! Dan my friend, you guys have earned yourself a loyal customer!

Dan and the guys at 7 Seas are Awesome! I wanted an Asian style snake with cherry blossoms around it. When I first walked it I had no appointment and the first guy comes up and ask what I want. When I said the word Asian, the guy says let me get Dan he is the best at Asian work. For an artist to pass the business along for the better of the customer was shocking. Dan free handed the work and he is unbelievable. Pricing was good and the work was even better. Class act!

People always ask you, «hey did that tattoo hurt?» Let’s be honest everyone, a tattoo hurts or at least feels unpleasant. You’re getting stabbed with a little needle a thousand times so don’t try to act tough and pretend that getting a tattoo feels better than getting a back massage while eating the world’s best pastrami sandwich.
Everyone gets a tattoo for a different reason and I think the artist is there to bring out the message you want. Dan did not disappoint in the slightest.
Been wanting a tattoo for years and researched a dozen different shops to find the most reputable artists and see some of their amazing pieces and see what all you Unilocalers liked. Came here on my day off with no appointment and told Dan the script I wanted. Chit chatted for a little bit and he ran to the back to make a sketch. Took about 30 mins and came back with something a little bigger but I’m glad we went with his recommendation.
Took about an hour to finish and I thought the shading and script looks great. Dan’s not only a talented artist but a really cool guy and definitely put me at ease. I get compliments all the time for the tattoo and if I ever live in SD or visit again, I’d go to him in a heartbeat.

I wanted to make another review based on my 2^nd visit here.
If you read my reviews of other businesses, then you can probably tell that the two most important things to me are cleanliness/​sanitation and customer service. 7 Seas continues to excel in both respects.
Last Tuesday, my wife and I came in to get a couple’s tattoo that we (okay, she) came up with. We met with the artist Brian and told him what the tattoos were and that my wife wanted hers on the arch of her foot. Brian explained that that particular location was not the best due to the fact that it would basically look like shit in 6 months. That is pretty awesome if you think about it. Brian would rather us decide to not get the tattoos and walk out than to take our money and give us tattoos that we will later regret. Most people would just take the money and let buyer remorse be our problem! He offered an alternate location for her tattoo (top of her foot) and explained, in great detail, why it was a much better location. Naturally, we agreed.
After my wife’s tattoo was finished, she began to get kind of lightheaded and pale. The pain from the tattoo and her empty stomach made a very bad combination. The other guy in the studio (I never got his name) noticed her getting dizzy and took off to a nearby restaurant and got her a can of coke to try to get her blood sugar up. I tried to pay him for it, but he wouldn’t hear of it. This was a huge act of kindness!!! These guys are simply amazing professionals in every way!
The cleanliness and sanitation of the shop is still superb, especially for a germaphobe like me.
All in all, this shop and its employees are second to none. I will really miss this place when we move. Thank you, Seven Seas, for taking such pride in what you do!

Absolutely amazing! Walked in here at 7:30 on a Saturday with no appointment… they were about to close but said they would stay and take me anyway. I was freaking out as it was my first tattoo and they made me sooo comfortable. Brian was in front he talked me through all of it while Carlos (Thor) was drawing up my tattoo.
He brought my design to life in the most perfect way and calmed me down completely. To my surprise, the tattoo didn’t even hurt! Thor was super quick and it came out better than I expected.
They are so personable and friendly and really care about your experience. The entire experience could not have been better!

Small parlor, but I enjoyed getting my first tattoo here. They were very personable enjoyed telling story’s about tattoo and all types of meaning behind them.

I got my very first tattoo from Sergio at 7 Seas Tattoo, and had a great experience. I brought in a design that I had seen in a movie, and Sergio sketched out a design that was very true to the original, yet also enhanced it considerably. The finished product looks great — I couldn’t be happier.
The process was smooth, no hassles or unexpected surprises. I’d work with Sergio again without hesitation!

Got the privilege of getting my first tattoo by the owner Dan. Besides the amazing quality of work i was already expecting he answered all my questions and was just simply a nice person to sit with for an hour or two. He always made sure i was comfortable and gave me a heads up when he was moving on to the next step of the tattoo to make sure I knew what he was doing. Dan even made sure i liked the music that he was playing. Overall, exactly what i wanted. Need a tattoo? Just go here.

Had a really great experience with Sergio as my tattoo artist. He was so patient with me as I underestimated how much it would hurt and had to reposition occasionally. We sat for maybe 2 – 3 hours? He did the outline only so I have to come back for shading but seriously he was just amazing. The tattoo is his design and I’m just so grateful to have had a talented artist working on me!
Only thing is that this place is tricky to find the first time. It’s not any neon lights screaming tattoo shop at you and google maps directs you down a block or two.
But if you’re going to go anywhere, go here! All the artists are fantastic!

My very first tattoo was done once the shop opened. I was greeted by Dan and he was the person that did my tattoo. I told him it was my first time, and he made me feel comfortable the moment I walked in. «You’re at the right place.» Whenever someone is going to get something placed on their body that is supposed to last a lifetime, you want to make sure you’re at a location that makes you feel calm and re-​assured that you’ll be okay.& that’s exactly how I felt. I got a simple treble clef on my wrist, and he was able to accommodate the size I wanted and placement. His input was greatly appreciated because like I said, it was my first time receiving one. He’s been an artist for 20+ years and did a fantastic job. As far as pain, it hurt– but it was bearable. He did a great job and I recommend him to anybody! Dan is the man :)

I have a decent amount of tattoos and have been to several shops in San Diego but this is by far my favorite mostly because Alfy did such an amazing job. He did a beautiful Ganesh head on my leg, I am truly in love with it, the colors are beautiful and the lines are very clean.
I initially wanted the entire Ganesh but he recommend I just do the head and it came out so beautiful. I want to wear shorts in the winter just so I can show it off. I’m glad he tweaked my idea because I think it came out better that way. He is an artist that takes pride in his work and if he doesn’t think something will look good he will tell you, and I totally respect that.
I’m so happy with Alfy’s work it’s my favorite tattoo.
