Royal Tattoo Review: Where Cardboard Scribbles Become Masterpieces If you're looking for a tattoo shop where your wildest doodles turn into jaw-dropping body art, Royal Tattoo is it. I walked in with a "design" I sketched on the back of a piece of cardboard—honestly, it looked like a toddler drew it with their foot during an earthquake. But Dave? Dave took one look and said, "No problem!" What he handed back was not just a tattoo—it was a freakin’ masterpiece. Somehow, he transformed my kindergarten-level scribble into something worthy of a gallery wall (or at least a solid Instagram flex). My vision of something special created for my parents came to life. Dave is the real deal: professional, funny, and the kind of artist who genuinely cares about what he’s putting on your body. He made the whole experience comfortable, hilarious, and borderline magical. If you’re thinking of getting inked, do yourself a favour and let Royal Tattoo bring your cardboard chaos to life. Highly recommend. 11/10.

I got my first tattoo done by Alina and my experience was amazing! I would highly recommend this place as you get the best service possible. Everyone I dealt with was super friendly and made the whole process go smoothly. My artist Alina is so talented and was so nice to work with. She made sure that her sketches and stencil was exactly what I wanted. Her micro-realism work is unreal.

Been working with Alex and Royal Tattoo on a leg piece. He has surpassed all expectation and it has turned out amazing so far. Everyone at Royal Tattoo is great from the moment you walk through the door you are made to feel welcome. Would highly recommend whether it is your first or a veteran they have amazing artists.

We were walk ins and they were so patient with our indecisiveness on the style. Alex & Arhat did an amazing job and the shop was so clean, you could have performed heart surgery. Thank you both! We both highly recommend.

Alex has killed it. He took my idea and worked with me to put it to paper then to skin. Very professional and an amazing tattoo artist. Front end staff was always nice as well. Absolutely cannot wait to go back for my next tattoo

I walked in to royal tattoo today and was given the artist Alina. She was absolutely amazing. I got 2 black fine line birth flowers with gems. They look fantastic and I could not be happier with the work she did. I will recommend this shop 1000% to anyone that is looking for a tattoo, and will definitely be back to see Alina.

Today we had a memorial paw print of our cat Thomas whom we had for 16 years. Front of house was fabulous, friendly and witty. The artist Brandon was awesome. My husband and I love our tattoos so much, our son is going to get one as well. Highly recommend Brandon, we will be back. Thank you Christine and Lee
