“Great friendly professional service. I got a tattoo with Christina, one with Mégane and a nose piercing with a Ely.
I'm definitely coming back!! You walk in and you're welcomed with warmth and a smile (shoutout to Éloïse's kindness!).
Everyone is welcome there.
& what a nice vibe ?“

“Alin was wonderful for tattooing me and my dad! She took some time before our appointment to draw a couple of designs for us to choose on the day we were getting tattooed, was very patient with us, answered our questions, and gave us an overall very enjoyable experience. We were both very satisfied with the final result.
Was also very nice of her giving us a very detailed list of aftercare for our tattoos. Thank you again Alin!“

“I went for a nose piercing, a first time piercing experience may I add, so I was kind of terrified and anxious. The piercer was very sweet, and gave me water and a candy because I was feeling light headed afterwards. We talked about random stuff and laughed a lot. Sadly I don't know their name.
Other than that, instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I went there with a friend (lobe piercing) and had to pay for the both of us which was very pricey.“

“Liz did a jewelry switch for me today and was super gentle while doing it ! She was also extremely patient as I chose new jewelry (I took my sweet time lol). I would like to mention that they do switches free of charge if the jewelry is purchased at their store and the prices and jewelry variety are very reasonable.“

“From the moment you walk in the door to leaving, the experience is just amazing. Everyone is so incredibly nice and polite and my tattoo artist Mike Najjar ( @justink.it) he was so incredibly understanding and down to earth really worked with me on my half sleeve to make sure it was perfect.I will definitely suggest this place to everyone I know that wants to get inked“

“Great little place for a haircut and to get inked.. Arun did a great job on my hair and Antonin hooked me up with a small rose tattoo, inspired by the eponymous song by Dropkick Murphy that morning.“

“I cannot tell you how lucky I feel to have met Awesome Alex master tattoo artist. Very talented, a lovely person.“

“Had two tattoos done with Angus, amazing quality, detailed and great guy to chat with, highly recommended“

“Excellent service! Lex, the piercer is amazing. Takes the time to explain everything and very good at her craft. Mauve does follow-ups to make sure you are healing well and to answer any questions along the way. They also have high-quality, beautiful, jewelry. If healing properly to get a beautiful result is important to you, this is the place go!“

“Ali is a wonderful piercer and is very clean and organized. She did a great job and Id 100% have her do other piercings in the future.“

“Jack did my tattoos. He’s so nice and extremely talented! One of the best tattoo places in mtl so far. Totally worth it. ✨“

“It started with wanting to cover up a scar. I went looking for a tattoo artist who could do that type of work. I was introduced to Julie. We talked, she took photos of the area I wanted inked. Working with her felt right. I have never looked back. Julie covered my scar with some incredible art but it wasn’t enough. I wanted more of her amazing work. She has inked my entire torso to mid thigh. She translated my thoughts and ideas into a beautiful fluid design. Her incredible talent made it so much more than I had imagined. Her work healed me outside and inside as well. She is magic!!“

“Super expérience de perçage, rapide et professionnel. ?? Elle s'est assurée de bien m'expliquer les soins“

“My 2 piercing experiences more than 10 years ago were already a success with Alex, today I can add Fred the tattooist who did exactly what I wanted, his fine lines are perfect, the details careful, his experience is evident! Always a friendly atmosphere that makes you feel good, very professional, really wow! Thanks Fred!

Requested style: It was exactly what I wanted!

“Abby was lovely! Helped us with a group tattoo, was great at helping us modify the design day-of, and was surprisingly efficient. She was also very accommodating when we had to reschedule cause someone was sick“

“Got inked by Linus and I am so thrilled! Linus was absolutely amazing and made me feel at ease throughout the whole process. I've always wanted to cover up a mistake I made when I was younger with a beautiful lotus flower, and lately, I've been fascinated by Korean tigers. I explained the meaning behind my tattoo to him, and he designed exactly what I had in mind. On the day of the appointment, I decided to go for color instead of black, and he was more than happy to accommodate my choice. I gave him the freedom to choose the colors, and he truly exceeded my expectations. Two things that really stood out for me was the shading and some of lines (at the right places) legit look like brush strokes. It’s all about the details. It's evident that he is passionate about his craft and takes great pride in it. I rarely write reviews, but this place is absolutely dope!Thanks Linus. Ill definitely be back ? “

“What started as a walk-in last year for a leg tattoo with Sam turned into almost 2 full arm sleeves with pieces from both Sam and Florian. This shop is the real deal for any and all American Traditional work, and I will proudly recommend this place to anyone looking for something that will stand the test of time and look absolutely BALLER!“

“I have plan for my first tattoo for almost 3 years but for some reasons, I’ve never done it. So this year, I decided to do it. Lucky, I found Loulou from a friend. I am happy with my first tattoo. He is professional, respect and serious with his job.

The day of my rendezvous, I imagined the worst pain that I’ll get. Fortunately, Loulou explained to me how it works and how to take care of the tattoo after. So I believe him and it is not that bad. He knows how scared people feel for the first tattoo so he makes me feel comfortable by making a small talk with random topic to avoid those pains.

He is The best. You should meet him if you have plans for the first tattoo or your tattoo in general.

Thanks you Loulou.“

“It’s been four years since I had this incredible piece done at Imperial Tattoo in Montreal, and to this day, I’m still absolutely in love with it. Created by the exceptionally talented Charles Saucier, this portrait tattoo is not just ink — it’s timeless art that continues to impress everyone who sees it. The detail, depth, and emotional expression captured in the work have truly stood the test of time.

Even after all these years, the tattoo has aged beautifully, which speaks volumes about the quality of both the ink and the technique. Charles is a remarkable artist — focused, precise, and deeply respectful of his craft. He made the entire experience unforgettable from start to finish.

If you’re looking for a tattoo artist who can bring your vision to life with integrity and artistic mastery, Imperial Tattoo is the place to go. I’m beyond grateful for what Charles created for me, and I’ll always recommend him to anyone who wants world-class ink. ♥️“
