    Danny gave me my first tattoo ever and it’s sick, I love it. I thought for years about it. His calm demeanor and clear proficiency at his artistry made it such an enjoyable experience. We bantered a bit about the shape and where to put it—totally chill. Now I’m addicted and want more.

    This is the quintessential tattoo shop... Tons of flash, cash only, great artists. Ross was amazing - walked away with a great tattoo and has an awesome conversation while getting it. Definitely stop here.

    worked with beau on this custom snake piece (less than 1 week out from getting it and it is healing well). without a doubt a premier studio for american traditional. high pricing but the quality of work justified it in my eyes. i will be back for more
