Love the environment. Very friendly and very clean. Had a butterfly tattoo and wasn't happy with one part, Brett had touched up that part with no questions asked and was happy to do so. He cares about what you want and how you feel. Would have him do all my tattoos in the future.

Great people, awesome artists, most excellent geeky decor. Very professional. This was my third tattoo, and I came in with the art drawn out already. Just a simple flag and banner design for my heritage, and he nailed it. Love my tattoo, and already planning to go back there for all my future art.

Shout out to Waldo's dark side tattoo parlor! I decided on a tattoo and 4 days later I had an appointment with the most talented Brett Murdock for a session! I'm absolutely in love with my new tattoo and would highly recommend them! #inklocal #local #tattoo

These guys are great. Always super professional and reasonably priced. I've got 5 tattoos from Brett and refuse to go to anyone else now. JP is an amazing artist as well. Great atmosphere.

Excellent service and professionalism that I experienced at this tattoo shop! My artwork was finished that day I came in no hesitation! I will definitely be returning back to John Paul for another tattoo. I was truly impressed!

Nice and friendly...however I do NOT recommend getting your tattoo done in a place with COCKROACHES! They don't appear to over run the place but I saw at least two in just a 20 min time frame...that says to me they are NOT a very sanitary establishment.
Their work seems nice though if you're willing to risk it..we aren't.

Waldo's Darkside is one of the best places you can go. They have really awesome geeky decor. I got my nose pierced by Jenn, she is the most awesome person ever. She really made me feel safe and calm when I got pierced. The atmosphere is great and the service.

I first went to Waldo Darkside in March of this year. I needed a tattoo from another shop touched up. The first person I talked to was Pat (Patrick Sears). I told him what I needed done and said he could hook me up. He brought the tattoo back to life and did it on the cheap (price wise). Since that day I have gotten 21 different tatts from Pat. I have zero complaints about his work. I get compliments all the time on how great my tatts look (they are all on my arms).
My girlfriend has gotten 6 tatts from Pat as well and she is very happy with his work. We will continue to go to Pat for all of our future tatts and we have plenty of skin left to cover! I would highly recommend Pat at Waldo Darkside.
The shop itself is very clean with a lot really cool and interesting decor. JP, the owner, is an absolute freak about anything Star Wars! Its pretty cool. Speaking of JP, I have not had any work done by him yet, but I have seen some of his completed work first hand. He is legit...he does solid work.
Check it out, you wont be disappointed.
