If you're in the Oakland area and itching for new ink then get in touch with Empire Tattoo. The staff is friendly and I will without a doubt be returning to the shop in the near future. Huge shout out to Lew Sommerville for my doing my latest piece, it was a real pleasure! Can't express enough how satisfied I was with the results and my experience at the shop!

Came there for the first time on Saturday. A friend of mine told me this was his go to place. I worked with Angel who was great! She was able to squeeze me in earlier than expected, and I was really impressed with her work and her ability to work with my custom drawings I had. Looking forward to work with her again.
Great atmosphere as well. The other artists were friendly and that made for a relaxing experience
Thanks again Angel and Empire Tattoo!

I got my tattoo done by Lew and I’m not exaggerating when I say that was the best artist experience I’ve ever had. He was super nice. He was very efficient and he didn’t make me feel stupid if I wanted to change the placement or change the detail.
