  • “⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My experience at this tattoo studio was simply amazing! The atmosphere is welcoming and pleasant, making you feel comfortable and well taken care of from the very first moment. What impressed me the most was Bárbara, a trained fine artist who is not only incredibly kind and empathetic but also holds herself to the highest artistic standards. She dedicated an exceptional amount of time to both the design and execution of my tattoos—spending a total of two days and around eight hours. Both tattoos, one on each arm, were created entirely freehand. Every line and every stroke was carefully considered, with nothing left to chance. Her attention to detail and artistic perfectionism truly impressed me. I traveled all the way from Germany specifically for this artistic work—and it was absolutely worth it! The result exceeded my expectations, and I can wholeheartedly recommend this studio. If you value unique designs, top-notch precision, and a great atmosphere, this is the place to be.”

  • “Me and my friend decided to get a tattoo last minute and we found this shop online. The shop and artists were everything we hoped for: the communication went very smoothly and pleasantly; we were warmly welcomed by all the staff. The design idea was executed perfectly—better than we could have hoped for. I wanted a fine line, and my friend wanted a more defined line, and both tattoos were executed perfectly. Highly recommended!”

The price is really affordable. Thank you Carmen and Chris!!”

  • “The whole team really made me feel like at home. I just walked in and they accepted me open arms helping me deciding what was best for two tattoos. Clark was the one tattooing me and he's such a caring and perfectionist artist. He was making sure that I was always ok and really brought life to the experience. We also made a shot together after all since they have a selection of alcohol free for guests. Thank you sooo much, I'll forever bring this amazing experience on my skin 🙏🏻”

  • “Clark is AMAZING! We went to his studio and my wife saw his work but I didn’t so I mistakenly passed on getting a tattoo until I actually looked at his work and demanded to go back. Thankfully he had an opening. Clark’s skill is very noticeable. There was pain but very minimal. When Clark was finished with the tattoo I was so amazed. It looks like a decal. Kelly did my wife’s tattoo. She also is very skillful. Talent runs in the family. This tattoo studio is amazing. Thank you!”

  • “It was a super great experience at Portrait Tattoo Ink. Staff is super friendly, helpful and smiling ! They helped me choose the design, gave me advices and so. I was tattooed by Emmanuel. Wanted to do initially one tattoo but ended up doing two, thanks to him ! Emmanuel did a super clean and meticulous job, highly recommended. He even explained to me carefully after care treatment. Very professional !”

  • “We are absolutely speechless with the quality of work Kazoid gave us. He was very flexible and fit us into his schedule just a day before our scheduled session. Similarly he gave us very fair pricing for his talented services. On top of the wonderful art he gave us, the whole shop just felt very welcoming. I personally enjoyed Kazoid’s fun loving personality and him singing along to the music while he worked. If you’re looking for incredible work at a fair price, look no further!”

  • “Nick and Leticia are absolutely incredible 🩷🩷🩷 10/10 must visit when in Porto!!! Myself, my mother and my aunty wanted a matching tattoo to symbolise our bond and our time in Porto. It being my auntie's first ever tattoo, Nick made sure she was relaxed, laughing and at ease. Nick was highly professional, hygienic, enthusiastic and friendly. He took his time figuring out sizes for us, locations on the body for the tattoos, and any differences we wanted between ourselves. My mother and I got a small extra tattoo because we liked the studio and it's owners so much. The studio itself was tidy and aesthetic, warm and inviting. The whole experience was amazing, comfortable and relaxed. The prices are very reasonable for the artistry involved. Thank you 💛”
