From the business
"831 INK is Monterey's Custom Tattoo studio. Keep in mind we are not the average tattoo shop in which you pick your tattoo off a wall. Our process usually starts with a consultation. After ideas and concepts are shared, we then begin the process of creating your one-of-kind custom tattoo. When coming to 831 INK please come with an open mind. Allowing us to have some artistic liberty and a little bit of time will yield the our best tattoo pieces. Feel free to walk in to discuss any ideas you may have without any commitment. Feel free to browse the tattoo work of others in the area. We are certain that your decision to put your trust in our hands will be confirmed. Due to demand the typical wait time for our tattoos is one to two months."

Gabe took time away from his family on a Sunday to give me my first ink at age 62. I wanted a lighthouse on my lower leg to honor a dear friend who passed away in September 2022. He was very professional in his technique and cleanliness and really put me at ease. He did beautiful art in capturing the look of the building structure and his shading really made the design pop. I highly recommend Gabe and 831Ink for your body art! Thank you so much!!

I contacted Angie yesterday in the afternoon and she was able to get me in the next day. She designed two little tattoos that were better than expected. She's really kind and professional. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks a bunch!

Junior Garcia is the best artist there! He has done three of my tattoos which are pretty good size pieces and is currently working on a good size cover up for me. He is flexible and easy to work with, as well as his work is rock solid! You won't be disappointed!

Gabe is a champ. From the first time I called in, he was excited to work with me. I was nervous about getting my first tattoo, but I put my trust here and it paid off. I appreciate it Gabe! The ink looks sick

The owner is very professional! The price for my tattoo was very reasonable and he uses newer equipment that makes the tattooing and healing process much nicer. A great place for a first tattoo!

I stopped by on a whim to see if I could get a consultation. Although they were very booked, they made the time for a consultation and squeezed me in to get it done faster than I expected. Junior did a great job, was very professional, clean, and personable. Would go back!

Amazing artists with great vision. I did a 6 hour session and will be going back for two more to complete a chest plate by Ram.Navarro. The artists are friendly and comfortable to work with. They put on music and/or a Netflix show to help keep my mind busy. I am an extremely picky person when it comes to tattoo artists, and for this location it was no contest when deciding what shop was the best to trust with such an important decision.
