I recently had a tattoo done with an amazing artist named, Katie of Pacific Ave Tattoo. She did an amazing job on my tattoo. This was my first piece, and I trusted her with her creativity. Not only she, but the other artists there made sure I was doing well and kept me comfortable throughout the 2 and half hour session. It also helped a lot, being a fellow dog parent, the owner brings his beloved bulldog to the shop. She also help calmed my nerves. She even greeted me at the door. The tattoo came out greater than what I had expected in my head. I HIGHLY recommend this shop to others! My wife also has two pieces of artwork done there. There are many artists there to select from, each have his/her own specialties. It depends on what you are looking for. I am already planning my next tattoo with them! Tell them I sent you, you will. not. be. disappointed! 🙏🏻

I love this place. Haven’t had anything but good experience with them! I’ve had 3 different artists do my tattoos and each time they did a good job. Good experience and I’ve gotten my boyfriend and other friends to go in and get tattoos here. Very clean and they take the time to hear what you want.

The front desk girls killed it! Busy Friday they rocked getting everyone though. As someone who values excellent customer service skills I was impressed by the way they handled everyone.
Bella- my tattooist was also phenomenal. She took her time with placements and did a beautiful job with my design. She also went above and beyond to make sure my friend who was getting her first tattoo was comfortable as possible.
Thanks for a lovely experience Pacific Ave Tattoo! I'll be back again for sure!

Spidey did a great job on a small script finger tattoo for me. Very professional, clean shop. I would totally get more work done here.

I got a thigh piece done by Mr. Tops, and I absolutely love it! It only took a few hours and because it was my first tattoo I was a bit nervous, but he kept checking in with me to see if I was okay. I loved the atmosphere and I can’t wait to visit the shop again!

I have to say, $40 friday is an absolute godsend. Extremely cheap for a 2×2 design from some highly talented artists. The overall vibe of the shop is chill, laid back, and cool. Definitely the place to get your first tattoo. Staff is really friendly, and adds to the overall chill, comfortable atmosphere. 100% recommend this place over some of the other shops I've been to in Tacoma.
*SIDE NOTE* I overheard someone wanting a bigger piece for $40, and was shaking my head. I'm just gonna put it out there, the artists are professionals. Respect their craft, and the other people coming in for smaller tattoos. Haven't ever said anything like this before, but felt the need to because the shop and the people inside have earned my respect and patronage.

Mike was an amazing and skilled tattoo artist. He created a design that was very thoughtful and made sure I was satisfied with it. He has great communication skills and is very professional. Also got humor. Would totally recommend

people are very friendly and professional. I got 2 tattoos from this place, and both artists who worked on me did a great job. I got what I exactly wanted and left very satisfied ! I am definitely coming back for more tattoos.

Loved my tattoos we got them done on Sat July 25th 2020. My artist was Kate, she was super good, you can tell she takes pride on her work. She paid a lot of attention to detail. She gave me and my husband exactly what we wanted. Love the atmosphere in the place. Its very welcoming and the artists and staff are super chill and cool. I will be telling people to go here for a great experience. Thank you Kate for our amazing tattoos. 😊
