"If you want to be stopped and complimented on your tattoos/art on a daily basis then this is the perfect place to go. Eddie’s work is phenomenal — so creative & beautifully done! He’s so professional as well. I’ve bounced around from shop to shop because I’ve never found anybody that checks all the boxes for me but I think I found my new home lol."

"Well me and my friend have visited this place a couple of times and have always had a great time till i went the last time. I decided I wanted to get a soldiers cross and put my drivers name to it, he died of gulf war syndrome a basically rotted from the inside out. It . Certain parts of it weren't finished and one of the boots if you look didnt have any outline where as the other boot does the helmet looks jacked up. My artist walked away from doing my ink and went out back with some guy for maybe 15 mins. That day I spent almost 1000.00 dollars and wasn't pleased mine looked like a 100.00 tatt my friends turned out good. I'm going elsewhere to get it reworked. The lighter one is while I was still there and the darker one was after it was healed."

"Lefty was the artist that did my tattoo and I'm far beyond impressed and satisfied. Lefty gave me 110% and ensured that I was taken care of all the way to the time I stepped out of the shop. I was on a short time frame and I requested Lefty to draw and finish this piece as soon as possible. I went in on Saturday and Lefty stayed late to draw my piece after we had talked about it and I returned the next day and was able to finish the tattoo (Sundays are usually Lefty's days off). Lefty is not only an amazing artist, but he will take the time to explain to you what he sees in your ideas and make suggestions to guide you to your perfect tattoo. Thank you very much for your time Lefty and the best of luck your freakn awesome!"

"Best experience I've ever had. My tattoo artist was Nate. He did an amazing job not only on my tattoo but on his ability to make me feel comfortable and confident in his work/ abilities. Tattoo quality was amazing, NO scarring, healed quickly, color is vibrant and bright. He has a very light touch, he made it as painless as possible. Definitely plan on going beck next month to have more done. Thank you Nate"

"Lefty brought my 13 year old tattoo back to life-and better than before! The staff here are top notch artists, friendly and professional. I would definitely return for any future work. =]"
