Memento Tattoo and Gallery

Not good. Japanese symbol brush stroke not defined as single stroke, but broken. Outside of top single stroke curves in on itself and is not a smooth arch where it meets at crossing stroke. Also, tattoo outline clearly shows as darker then inside black, but Im sure they could fix that. Little disappointed. Had such high hopes and was expecting so much more because of it being a personal recommendation to use them. Sorry Memento

Cary is one of the best tattooers in all of Columbus. Shop is super clean and priced fairly for very good work. I will definitely be back to get more work done by Cary. I can't speak on the other tattooers in the shop, but I would imagine Cary only hires artists he thinks highly of. Check out their portfolios online, some sick art.

I wish I could give this place a hundred stars. We came in as walks ins and we already went to another place and they quoted our tattoos to be the minimum of 150. We were baffled. So we decided to come here and we were welcomed in and was given a great price quote. We agreed to get the tattoos and they called us early to come get it done. The customer service is great and I felt relaxed! I wasn’t anxious. Rob did mine and Dave did my friend. They both did great!

Big Meas and the whole crew We're absolutely amazing. Absolutely love my tattoo and the atmosphere there. Definitely make every client feel at home an like family. If you're in Columbus and go anywhere else you're DUMB!

I received my first tattoo at Memento after waiting 38yrs. Glad I did it. I gave Cary a few ideas and he came up with something unique. The tattoo turned out great. sharp lines no blow outs. Price was fair. The shop was very clean and inviting. I will be back as I am already coming up with ideas for my next one.

I had a great first tattoo experience at Memento. I visited on a Monday and met with Ryan Campbell. I wanted to get a replica of my kitten's pawprint since I had to euthanize her after only having her for a week. He was able to get me in two days later. The tattoo is beautiful and almost exactly like her ink pawprint, including stamp-like detail, which was so important to me. The shop was clean, the atmosphere was nice, and Ryan was so friendly and caring. I would recommend Memento to anyone.

I got a tattoo after my sister passed away and was very anxious about it. However, Jeremy was so warm and friendly and made me feel comfortable when I was nervous. The tattoo came out better than I imagined. Very satisfied with my experience at Memento!

Was lucky enough to have a piece done by Cary The shop owner. Discovered this place by word of mouth and did research via Instagram and was blown away by the consistent talent of every artist. Cary was a magician and my tattoo was almost healed by the end of our session. No scabbing, beautiful, quick work. Thanks Cary!

I've been getting tattooed by multiple artists at Memento for a few years now and they have never failed to impress. Along with having an arsenal of the best artists in the city, the shop is extremely clean and the staff is very laid back and friendly. I can't recommend them enough.

The only reason I didnt give one star is I had a good experience with my first tattoo here. Today however I had a appointment scheduled from about a month ago. After what I thought was giving him plenty of time to draw a sketch I still didnt have a clue what the design would look like until I showed up today. It was nothing like what I had described or what I wanted. He went back to fix some things which was fine but then his conversation carried over from the back room and I heard him and another artist talking about how its hard to make a tattoo out of such a terrible idea and disrespecting what I wanted to have done. I got up and walked out with no plans on ever going back.
