A group of four of us contacted Emerald Buddha to get tattoos on Friday after they posted about having cancellations. We worked with Ava, who was so patient with us as we ran certain designs by her, made changes, additions, asked about touch up work, etc. She did excellent work on all of us and we were all super happy with our tattoos. Not only only did she do excellent work, she was a joy to be around. The shop itself is super clean and sanitary. We will definitely be back!

I went in for an appointment for a quick touch up with Ava which did amazing as usual! I then decided I wanted some more done and asked if they had any openings which thankfully they did and Moon was able to do both of the ones I wanted and did an amazing job! She was very friendly even though I messed up on the dates a few times! Thanks again to both artists and we absolutely love Emerald Buddha !

Ben did such a great job with my tattoo. I decided to make an appointment while we were in Galena for the weekend and they were super responsive and did exactly what I was hoping for. Very clean and professional shop. We will be coming back to see Ben again!

Lexx was amazing. She designed a tattoo even better than what I had envisioned. She was extremely friendly and made sure I was comfortable at all times. Highly recommend.

My wife has gotten 3 tattoos here, two of them cover up work. J Pro did all three and he is stellar. Perfect work every time and the detail is amazing. Super professional, laid back, and kind. The atmosphere is awesome too and everyone working their is helpful and knowledgeable. Definitely a fun place to go for a tattoo. I highly recommend the Emerald Buddha.
