GREAT EXPERIENCE!
I was so lucky to get my first tattoo with Josh at Island Tat. I flew from Colorado after I noticed his art and loved every tattoo I saw.
The studio is beautiful, modern, clean, with a little museum of Polynesian artifacts. They welcome you warmly and show you their snacks and water. Yumm. Good start.
Then, Josh spent quite a bit of time getting to know me and taking notes to create the PERFECT tattoo for me. He's a great artist, very pleasant to be around, patient! He was able to bring to reality a vague tattoo I had been dreaming of for many years, but I never had the courage to actually try to get it done. When I met Josh, I understood immediately I made a good choice and that I was in great hands. Just to share an idea of his remarkable achievements, Josh is the official tattoo artist of a Polynesian king!
After a 4-hour long session with Josh, I feel more myself, and so proud to carry this piece of art on my skin.
Mahalo, Josh!

Drove all the way to San Diego from Utah to get tatted by Kiti and it was well worth the drive! I got tatted by an amazing artist and got to explore San Diego for the very first time!! I honestly didn't want to leave! Island Tat thank you for your amazing customer service and your great communication skills. This is definitely one for the books!
@Kiti thank you again for the beautiful artwork it's simple but so meaningful. I can't wait to head back for part two. If you want amazing artwork done don't take my word for it book your appointment with @Island TAT and I promise you won't be disappointed! Malo 'aupito.✊🇹🇴

I used Kiti to get my first tattoo. I was very pleased with his patience with working with me to get the designed figured out and I was also very happy with the end result. Kiti is a very skilled artist.

Loved everything about this shop. Don't be fooled by the simple outside appearance because the inside was amazing! Suni was my artist and he was so patient and ensured that I got the design i wanted. I'm pretty sure the drawing took longer then the tattoo itself! This was my 1st tattoo and Suni made the experience as comfortable as possible. I was even offered Netflix with headphones, water and snacks. He gave me exact instructions on aftercare and when i had questions the next day, he responded not with a text response, but with a phone call. That level of customer service means a lot. I don't like pain and it took me 3 years to work myself up to this tattoo. I waited 2 months for my appointment and it was totally worth the wait! I highly recommend.

Kiti is the real deal, poly work unmatched from what I've seen in my travels. There's a reason why he's booked until nearly next year.
