The Hidden Gem Private Tattoo Studio

If you’re looking for a tattoo, THIS is the place to go. I sent an inquiry through the website in March when they were accepting new appointments and received a response I believe early May, maybe a bit earlier. (aka he’s busy because he’s amazing!!). Antonio is so professional and does an AMAZING job with his tattooing. I got two small tattoos (one on my ribs/torso and one on the back of my forearm. Pics are from 5 days after getting them done) on Tuesday and they’re healing very well. His studio is clean and he shows you all the brand new needles and ink he’ll be using on you, and answers any and all questions you may have. Also super reasonable pricing! You can tell he loves what he does and he does it so well. He works with you to create the tattoo you want and he was so great about my little last minute changes to make sure I was happy with what will be on my body forever. Every time I look at my tattoos I can’t help but smile. Thank you times a million Antonio!!!!! :)

Antonio is awesome. Great tattoo artist with a fair price. One of the best in Worcester!. He books you for the day and is focused on each individual client

Honestly, amazing amazing work! Tony is super kind, down to earth, respectful and patient! Made my first tattoo experience amazing! The vibes are calm and he makes sure you're okay with everything before he starts. He opens everything up in front of you to make you feel more at ease. All needles are packaged and clean. Can't stress this enough, AMAZING! Recommend 110%. I was so nervous, but I couldn't be more happy with his work and my new realistic black and white tiger!

Awesome dude, nicest guy in the world. Couldn't be happier with my tattoo. He's knowledgeable and extremely talented. He was friendly and funny through my entire tattoo. Believe me, anyone that can put up with me for hours on end and still be friendly and funny is a saint. Place was clean and professional. Communication over email was easy, relaxed and constructive. I gave him some ideas for my tattoo, and he was able to create something that was really unique and attractive. I have been recommending him to everyone I talk to. If you're considering getting a tattoo from him I would definitely recommend you do it. I think you'll be extremely happy. Good luck dude!

Update, 8/2021: Got my second tattoo from Antonio. I stand by everything I said in my original review. Antonio is still a stand up dude. Wicked awesome guy. If anything he's gotten even better, but he's still wicked humble. I wish him all the success in the world. Oh, and I love my tattoo. If I get any more money and my wife will let me, I'll be back again.

Antonio is an amazing tattoo artist and an even better person. His studio is extremely clean and professional. I got my first tattoo done and he made me feel extremely comfortable and was constantly checking in with me while doing it. Antonio is a down to earth person that takes passion in his craft, I couldn't have picked a better person/artist.

Had a really good session with Antonio today. Anytime I get a tattoo by him he is very attentive to my comfort level. I love talking to him because he’s very open and mindful. Every session is different, there are new topic conversations as a distraction to the tattoo gun or the background music. You can’t always get this at a regular shop. I’m pleased to be a consistent client and I’m looking forward to seeing more creative tattoo pieces. See you next time ✌🏽

Antonio is an amazing artist and all-around wicked nice guy! He always made sure I was comfortable and happy with his work through the whole appointment. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be going back for my next tattoo!

Beyond content with my experience at Hidden Gem. Antonio created the most perfect design based off what I showed/told him I was looking for. Extremely outgoing, great vibes and very clean and professional studio. I am absolutely in LOVE with my piece. I will most certainly be back and anyone who’s been considering Tone as an artist? BOOK NOW!! Thanks again Antonio! Can’t wait for our next session 💎

Honestly if you’re in Worcester, or even in the surrounding cities/states, this is the only shop you’re going to want to look at. You get the quality of a traveling artist for local prices. Grab your tattoos before he escapes Worcester!!! Not only do you get an amazing piece of art; it is accompanied by a professional, relaxed environment. Not to mention my guy gives mentally stimulating banter while tattooing. I almost didn’t feel any pain for an hour, because I was so into the conversation. There’s no way you can possibly feel like leaving less than a 5 star review after getting tatted here. Just remember it’s a private studio, so email first and be patient; he’s the only person that works there. You can’t just show up and expect him to drop what he’s doing. All you gotta do is email, consult, then become a walking canvas of art!!!!
Infinite stars

Antonio exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds. I waited a long time to get a tattoo that had a special meaning to me, and that also incorporated my heritage.

Antonio is really chill and laid back, which makes it very comfortable for newbies like me! He is also very clean and asked you to leave the room so he can clean and prep it while you watch from the doorway.

I get compliments all the time on my tattoo and I am absolutely obsessed with it. If I could walk around with my shoulder blades exposed 24/7 I would.

I highly recommend Antonio and the Hidden Gem Tattoo Studio. Antonio FYI As the Terminator says, I’ll be back!

THANKS ANTONIO!
