Adrian is my go-to artist and never fails to make me feel welcome and as comfortable as possible throughout the entire process. Plus, the establishment is clean and everything is done with proper sanitation. All of the tattoos he's done for me are gorgeous, timeless works of art. I cant recommend this place enough. :)

Good experience. Fit me in the same day and same hour that I showed up. Drew exactly what I described. Clean studio. Adheres well to COVID guidelines, and has one of the best COVID forms to fill out before getting your tattoo. Prices are about the same as other studios I've been to. Can't pay with card though, cash only. Thinking about coming back to touch up an older tattoo I have! :-)

Can’t say enough good things about this place! Jon was extremely helpful with helping me decide what direction to go with my cover-up, and absolutely KILLED (in a good way) the final product. I’ll never go to another artist or studio. Gator was super hospitable and accommodating, and Scott and Adrian are great guys as well, and they all made me feel right at home. If you’re looking for the best group of guys to hook you up with an awesome piece of forever-art, look no further than Acme! 5 stars all day, err day!!

Jay Fish has been my good friend for many years, and this is probably the best run shop in Kentucky. They keep it clean and professional at all times. Plus they're all really talented artist, can't go wrong at Acme.

I got tattooed today by Steve, and it was a great experience!! I can’t speak for the whole shop because it was done at an event at another shop, but Steve himself was very easy to work with, he took his time even though there were several people there on the waiting list, which meant a lot, and he produced a beautiful piece. I’m extremely happy with it, and I’m sure he’ll be seeing me again for more work.

VERY lengthy and frustrating. Artist immediately didn't like the picture I brought in because it "looked like a white graphic designer did it". Had to haggle over every detail to get him to do what I liked vs. the style he thought was best. He would disappear and come out over an hour later with another sketch that wasn't what we agreed on. Was there literally over 5 hours for a tattoo that took him an hour of work. It felt more like buying a car than getting a tattoo. This was a simple lotus with black lines. Nothing intricate or detailed, so I don't know why the sketches took so long. On one of the rejected drawings he drew half of it and just copied and mirrored it on a copy machine. He brought that out after telling me he was going to do my drawing exactly. It was a naturally assymetrical drawing of a flower and we never agreed on the mirror image. Unsure why he tried to slide that past me, but that was why he had to sketch it up a 3rd time. It was the shop owner doing the work. End result is fine since I finally got him to do the design I wanted. And the quality is good. But it was just not a good time. They've been around forever and have good reviews, so I wanted to check them out. Maybe it was just an off day. But it was so drawn out and like pulling teeth to get the tattoo I wanted, wouldn't risk that experience again.

John was fantastic. Comforting and artistic. Excellent shop.

If ever there was a shop that makes you feel like family, it's this one. I was referred by a family member, and I was not disappointed. Scott did my tattoo, and he made me feel super comfortable. Made sure that I was okay throughout the whole session. I'll definitely be back soon!

Went to three other shops as a walk-in to no avail. Finally, asked around and got multiple suggestions to head here. Josh at reception was flexible and personable; Jon, the tattooist was friendly and talented! Shop was clean (and smelled of incense), aesthetic was interesting and very indicative of the artists’ talents. Will only ever get tatted up here. Also, I was in and out in like 40 minutes (mind you, my tattoo was mega minimal). Would highly recommend.
