Pricey but worth it, was a walk-in appointment and Cole took my concept and elevated it. Would come back here again

Tattoo was ok, I was very amendable with the secretary about the reference I provided when I put my name on the waitlist, and since it was meant to be a small reminder of my time in Seattle and nothing too meaningful I was feeling ok with the result.
What bothered me most and what left a bad taste in my mouth was the use of a non refundable deposit. Which would be fine if properly deducted from total amount, but after my friend finished paying for her tattoo she realized that they did not deduct the deposit from the total amount so she ended up paying double for her tattoo, so we went back to see what could be done about it since we figured it was an honest mistake on their part. We were told that nothing could be done unless she wanted to buy $150 (deposit amount) worth of merchandise/tshirts. Of course we thought this was ridiculous, but the secretary would not budge on the non refundable rule and with a deadeye stare and no sympathy whatsoever told us that the easiest thing would just be to ‘eat the double charge’. And when we asked if we could involve the card company and cancel the charge, the secretary said that doing so would end up messing up the visiting tattoo artist that did her tattoo, and who I might add did a much better job on creating her tattoo than anyone else at the store seemed to be doing. So we had to ask someone that was waiting in line for a tattoo if they wanted to buy the deposit off of us, and thankfully someone did (all with no help from either the secretary or any other senior staff).
Honestly, if you don’t want to support a shady business do not go here.

I went in to get my first tattoo there and it was a inch and a half or so big ghost (only took 5 mins to finish), which cost $170+a tip… my artist had to go back over simple lines multiple times and it’s very blown out… I would not waste your time or money here

Wonderful, friendly staff. I've had 8 tattoo's done there by all but 2 of the artists. It will be my go to place in the future. Highly recommended.

I had a hella good experience here. Had this tattoo planed for a while but it was definitely an impulsive “I’m going to get it now” kind of thing so I didn’t have an apt. I called around a few shops and in all honesty Seattle tattoo emporium was the nicest on the phone and the only place that could squeeze me in for a walk in (although I think they do take walk ins regularly). I didn’t care who tattooed me, but I’m glad Mishka was there!! I gave him the design I had which I got on the front of my upper thigh to cover up some old scars. I had him change a few things with the sketch which he did an amazing job at. He took everything I wanted into consideration; simple design, straight lines and stuff. Kind of a starter piece for an area I want to fill in more. Anyway, great experience start to finish thanks to everyone at Seattle tattoo emporium buy especially Mishka who was super nice and professional, easy to talk to and killed it on my tattoo. Thanks you guys!!!

These guys are hands down amazing. Rob did a tattoo for both my sister and I, while Jimmy worked on a piece for my dad. These guys are absolutely amazing, they worked with us super fast and were patient while we decided what to do. We told them what we wanted and all 3 pieces turned out way beyond what we expected. If your looking to get a piece done, go see this guys. You will not be disappointed.

Mishka Antonov was the artist who did my first two tattoos and did a wonderful job paying attention to little details and making sure I was comfortable the whole time. There was a moment where I was quite light headed and he made sure to give me water and a chewy candy to boost my blood sugar and allow me a minute to feel better before continuing. I very highly recommend Mishka to anyone looking for a new tattoo.

I stopped here during a long layover in Seattle. Even though I had a limited amount of time, they were really accommodating. Eric started his shift early to meet with me. He offered very thorough info as to what I should expect the tattoo to look like (due to its placement on the underside of my hand) and my color options. Super professional, relaxed, and friendly! A+
