Customer Reviews
The best tattoo shop. The shop is kept clean with nice flash sheets, furniture, and an easy to navigate layout. I specifically get my work done by Josh Blumberg who does amazing color and black work. Can’t recommend this shop enough, anything from traditional to blackwork and beyond, someone will make sure you get the perfect tattoo.
