Benchmark Tattoo

I have been coming to Benchmark for about a year and a half now. I currently have 21 tattoos all by Mark, and I plan on getting many more. Everyone who works here is beyond kind and welcoming. The shop is clean and comfortable. Very impressed with this place. I always recommend it to people, and will continue to!

Mike Rosendahl does an amazing job. Very easy going guy to work with. Works with you, budget wise, and with your design, without sugarcoating what he is able to accomplish within a certain time. Has great artistic ability of his own. Will definitely be back, and soon, for another beautiful work of body art.

I chose to have my first tattoo done at Benchmark because I have heard nothing but positive things about this shop. My tattoo artist, MIke, did a great job with the initial consultation about my tattoo. When I showed up for my appointment a few weeks later, he walked through my design, tweaked a few things to my liking, worked meticulously to place the stencil just right, answered all of my questions very professionally and patiently and executed the design exactly how I had pictured it. While doing the work, he and I had great conversations about a wide variety of topics and I enjoyed every aspect of my experience with Benchmark. I highly recommend this studio and should another tattoo be on the horizon, I will go back to Benchmark without question.

2/10/2020: Update. Benchmark is still 5 stars, I sat this time with Kyle Grover for my second tattoo at Benchmark. He killed it. He took my ideas and executed them in a way that exceeded my expectations. I gave him a general direction, but I felt like I couldn't quite articulate the style that I envisioned, but he took the time and designed an amazing piece.that, in the end was exactly what I had pictured and wanted. Very professional, very personable, and one heck of an artist. I will again, go back to Benchmark without question.

7/8/2021: Update. Still 5 stars! I just sat with Kyle James for my third tattoo and he nailed it! I came in with a pretty solid idea of what I wanted, and Kyle took that idea and made something even better. Kyle James is one hell of an artist with a sweet spin on traditional style tattoos. He designed something that fit my leg well, laid it out so that it looked the best, and then went to town. I signed over all creative freedom to him and he did not disappoint. He's professional, personable, full of fun stories, and we are already planning the rest of the pieces that will go on this leg.

I won't go anywhere else. Benchmark is the place to go, no matter who you sit with. Find the artist who works in the style you want and you won't regret it. 3 different tattoos. Three different artists. All 5 stars.

Mike Rosendahl did an AMAZING job helping to customize and adapt my tattoo ideas into something that complimented the location on my body while blending in to existing work. He was exceptionally professional the entire time, checking in for feedback before each step, adjusting as requested, and did an excellent job walking me through the process. The shop was very clean, staff were great to work with, and I would HIGHLY recommend Mike and Benchmark Tattoo to anyone looking for quality work. His technical skills were spot on, and his artistic flavor drove me to booking with him specifically. I have over 70 hours of time in the seat getting tattoos and am very particular about who I work with. Mike is one of the few artists that I will continue to go back to for future work. Additionally, the prices were very reasonable and initial estimates were on point. THANK YOU MIKE!

Couldn't be happier! The overall experience was great, from the time I first contacted Kyle with my tattoo idea to the after care instructions. The shop was clean, friendly, and had some rockin' music. My tattoo has healed wonderfully and is better than what I had pictured in my head. I was hesitant to get my tattoo done because it is a portrait of my dog and I would've been mortified if I ended up with a half sleeve of a big colorful blob of something that sort of resembles a dog. Instead, Kyle gave me a fantastic portrait that is without a doubt my dog. I get compliments on this piece on a daily basis. I can't wait to go back for more.

Kyle Grover's skillful talent and artistic intuition always result in incomparable originality. The shop is welcoming, bright and a work of art itself. The artists and manager are all friendly and eager to make your tattoo a positive experience from design through to fruition.

I have been a regular customer here for years. I am into the traditional american tattoo style and they never disappoint me.
Great atmosphere and chill vibes all around. Professional and clean. Ask for Jeremy. He is great!

Kyle Grover has done 5 tattoos for me and I wouldn't go anywhere else. He's the best and I love all his work. This place is great and you should for sure get your next tattoo done at Benchmark.

Great shop, clean and artists are very knowledgeable

I’ve worked at this shop since almost its beginning. I’m not even being biased when I say this is the nicest tattoo shop I’ve ever been in. I myself have got several tattoos from the talented crew I work with and these guys are all world class artists. It’s an honor to work with them and the clients we attract are all great people.
