Rob is the best. They treat you more like a close friend or family than as a customer. The overall experience is a relaxing and enjoyable one. I highly recommend to everyone.
Wonderful experience! I got a inner lip tattoo here and it was very well done. Although, as any artist will tell you, they are not guaranteed to stay and will fade away. I was informed of this and understood completely! Part of my lip tattoo was a little thinner on one side than the other and I got it redone for free!! Just for having a good attitude when I first came in to get it done and understood that it was not the artist or my fault if the tattoo wouldn't fully stay! The inner lip is not guaranteed to stay for anyone no matter where you go!! Overall good experience!

My review is long overdue. I am coming back soon for my second tattoo. My first tattoo was done her with Chris and it was better than I could have ever hoped for. He took everything into account and my tattoo came out better than I had even imagined. This place is fantastic, the artists are all masters and wonderful people. Chris even stayed with me after the shop closed to finish my tattoo all in one long sitting. Would recommend MIDTOWN to anyone!
My first tattoo, and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Professional, amazing artists who are respectful and awesome to talk to. Clean and welcoming and cool shop itself, friendly staff. And on top of all of that, I got an amazing quality tattoo for a very reasonable price. 10/10 would recommend. Will be coming back!

This was my first tattoo and I cannot believe how amazing Josh is. I am so glad I waited for a true artist to give me a beautiful old school tattoo that means the world to me! I've received so many compliments in just a few weeks. The studio is immaculate and the one on one attention was great, Semper Fi
I took my son for his first tattoo and Josh was great. The studio was clean, neat, inviting and laid back. Josh was friendly, professional and made my son feel at ease. His artwork was awesome and the tattoo came out incredible. It was well worth the drive from Buffalo. I would highly recommend and would definitely go back.

The shop offers true American artistry in the industry of tattooing. They are well conversant with all styles of tattooing such as traditional American, cover ups, black and gray, and Japanese. They also welcome walk- ins and thrive in giving their best knowledge and experience in tattooing to their clients.
Steadfast was a WONDERFUL choice for my first tattoo. My friend and I went together today and we were both super nervous. Our artist Rachel, though relatively new at the job, was so incredible. She was super nice, relatable, calming, and professional. Although we both got quite simple, small tattoos, we both got EXACTLY what we wanted. I could not be happier with the experience! Most importantly, I felt as though everything was very clean and sterile, and I felt incredibly safe. Can't wait to go back for more!
This place was great! My friend and I walked in around 6 pm to get a tattoo. They could not fit us until 8pm because they had scheduled appointments, but they were willing to work after hours! The price was fair, the parlour was very clean, safe industrial grade ink (No metallic), licenses are up to date, and very kind, talented artist. Would totally recommend for anyone looking to get a tattoo!
