Aztec Graphics

Barbra has done many custom jobs for me all of which turned out amazing. Aztec Graphics has the mom and pop feel right in the heart of PB. In addition to doing custom matting, and framing they have a large selection of posters, and framed artwork (often from local artists). I love supporting places like this, and when the quality matches the customer service your guaranteed a great experience.
Aztec graphics is worth a north county drive; I continue to use them after moving from PB, they are the best!

This place is great, Tim took amazing care of us on our latest project this week-​matting and framing my grandpas old movie poster. He helped suggest matting and made everything perfect. We are from PB and we take all of our framing needs to Aztec. Family run and totally reliable. Fair pricing and very professional.
So psyched on our latest pieces-​thanks Tim!

really beautiful store! Loved all the posters & tapestries. Owners were very friendly. Definitely going back :-)
reasonably priced, parking in front of the store is free as well. Had a huge selection.

This place is the best and Barbra is one of the sweetest ladies I have had the opportunity to work with! They have a million and one options for you to choose from and have a wonderful eye for helping you decide the right choice.
Thanks so much for all your good work Aztec Graphics and crew!

This is the place for your «finishing touch». Great selections of posters and many were on my sons wall at college. It’s on a main avenue and I happened to walk in passing by to see what the pricing was like and what they had to offer. So it started with the posters but then I brought in some work and I had no idea of matte color or frame selection and they were sooo helpful. The work is beautiful and even custom. My favorite was a shadow box frame that I have with some collectables. Pricing was better than the «box» stores and your work is unique. It’s a framing store that definitely deserves a visit.

Barbara helped me custom frame 3 watercolor pieces I had bought on Etsy. She helped me choose mat colors that really brought out the pieces and directed me to frames that fit my budget. It was about a 2 week turn around time and I’m so happy with the results. They look really great! I feel the prices are certainly cheaper than other places like Michael’s or Aaron Brothers.

I’ve been using Aztec Graphics for over a decade. Barbara and her team have helped me frame a bulletin board, tiny art pieces, enormous prints and even a couple of signed NBA jerseys. Their customer service is fabulous, they really spend as much time as it takes to make a piece look perfect. But beyond great customer service, Barbara really has an eye for putting mats and frames together to create the look that you want.

I have been using a small independent framer in the Hillcrest area for YEARS. Although the pricing was right, the quality and time needed to complete my project was getting worse and longer every time I would go in.
I purchased a print on
for a housewarming gift and decided, like all men do, to wait until the day to find a frame. On the orange and park website they listed Aztec Graphics as a place to get your framing done so I thought I would check it out.
I walked in and was greeted by Barbara. Although she was with another customer she pointed me to the premade frames for my 12×12 print. The were a black simple frame with glass for $ 18. A great price though I was looking for something a little more custom. She suggested a whitewashed wood frame that looked awesome. So here it comes right!!! The bait and switch!!! Not even close… she did it for $ 20. $ 20? For a custom frame? I couldn’t believe it! Next she said she would have it done the next day, which compared to my last framer I used, was incredible. I said very meekly «Any chance you can do it today?». She said «Let me check and went into the back. She returned a few seconds later and said «Sure we can»! I was shocked!
Great Service ~
Great Price ~
Great turnaround ~
How does it get any better than that???
My extended family frames A LOT and I promise we will all be using Barbara and her team from here forward!

We recently had occasion to go to this place looking for a poster to be framed for our wall. The owner was helpful in letting us browse and letting us know which area to look in. Once we chose a poster she told us that we could use a ready made frame for it. She then helped us pick one she had in stock and proceeded to frame the poster right then and there at no extra charge and even gave us hardware to hang it on our wall.
We were so glad that we hadn’t gone to one of the chains that invariably ends up charging us much more than we want to pay.
Total customer satisfaction

Stopped in after seeing a great panorama of the La Jolla Cove in their window. The lady at the shop was very friendly, suggested a nice frame and framed it for me. Very helpful friendly service with a great selection of local scenic prints.

Tim helped frame two prints. In an age when customer service is hard to come by, I felt he went above and beyond to help me pick, try out frames, and then assembled the hangers an the frames I chose. He also offered to help me to my car. Not to mention I was very pleased with the frames.

Went here over the weekend to find some décor to spruce up my dining area/​poker room. Barbara and the staff set me right up with picture suggestions, and framing options! It’s a good idea to have a general idea of what u want before entering, that way the staff doesn’t have to spend time showing every available print to you.
The coolest part is they actually have a lot of standard size frames right there in the store to fit the prints they sell, so you don’t have to pay a custom frame charge. But if a custom-​size frame is what u want, they’re on it. I also ended up finding some awesome hip panoramas for the living room as well! Key word here is selection. There’s a little something for everyone at Aztec. I was framed and out the door in minutes at a total cost of around $ 48. Totally worth the drive.
Best part is you can walk across the street to Luna Empanadas and get lunch w the $ you just saved.

I have gone here a few times. The staff have been knowledgeable about their inventory and great with color suggestions. I feel like my art is in good hands while it is framed.

Hands down the best place to get your stuff framed, it took me forever to even pick up my stuff when they were finished and they STILL held it for me which was so awesome because I personally would have given up! Highly Highly recommended as they are super friendly as well.

I recently had my first print framed here, and they did an excellent job. They have a great selection of prints on hand, from a wide selection of genres, a decent amount of frame choices, prompt and responsive staff, not to mention great prices.
The gentleman listened to my framing idea and provided great recommendations. Their time frame was spot on (I love that). The finished product was stellar. I’m 100% going back for sure.

I have been coming to Aztec Graphics for all of my art and framing needs since 1996. They have always been courteous and professional, and my art always comes out much better than I had imagined. It is the only place I trust with my framing needs and will continue to be a loyal patron.

I’m still a firm believer in great customer service even if your business offers a good product and reasonable prices.
Aztec Graphics offers a vast variety of prints from just about every genre. They also have a modest selection of frames but do specialize in custom framing as well. It was like a little treasure trove for me as I love art and interior design. I was given about two dozen cherry wood frames from an estate sale and needed prints to fill them with. My budget was around 250.00 and I figured this place would deliver.
Little things irk me to no end and in all honesty, maybe more then the average person. But if I spend 30 minutes at any business and no one says hello or asks me if I need any assistance then it’s a total deal breaker for me and I leave. That’s exactly what happened here. I was completely ignored by the middle-​aged woman and a 20-​something male employee. So, me and my paltry 250.00 left and headed for a big-​box retailer to get what I needed.
So much for supporting your local business.

I am so impressed with Aztec Graphics!
Husband bought me a print (from Orange & Park – google them!) for Christmas and we needed a 24×24 frame. Not your typical size and we looked everywhere locally for one. Orange & Park recommended Aztec Graphics for framing options, as they carry this coveted size.
The employees were super friendly and helpful. They showed us the frame options and even framed our print for us. We actually purchased another print and frame combo and they switched out the print we already had for one of a different color, so both prints match.
The service here is top notch and the prices are fair! I’d definitely make the drive from OC again if we needed something specific. Thanks Aztec!

Simply amazing service. They know what kind of frame will look best with your art and they are willing to spend as much time as is needed with their customers. Prices aren’t bad and they have a wide selection of customizable frames.

Aztec is better than Aaron Brothers, hands down.
Great customer service and overall experience, much cheaper than Aaron Brothers as well. Would highly recommend!
