Shout out to Panda who did a belly button piercing for my daughter. His eagerness to act rapidly when my daughter fainted after her piercing made me feel so ease. Panda was awesome to provide chocolate and green tea to make her coherent and come to her senses. Drink plenty of water and eat something when you are thinking about piercing your belly button and know that if you are thinking of their services of tattoo or piercing, this is the place you want to go where they can think on their feet to act quickly should a situation arise. They were professional and courteous. More so they provided the utmost excellent service and again, I can’t thank Panda enough. You rock.

The best experience I’ve ever had in a tattoo shop!! Everyone in the shop was very sweet and made it feel so comfortable, like a home. The vibes as soon as you step in are so comforting and chill. I got my belly, nose, and ears pierced by Joseph, one of the most sweetest and professional people I have ever met!! He made sure to take his time and that all of my piercings were perfectly aligned, and made sure to ask me if i liked them before piercing. He also did a Tragus piercing on my mom, and it came out perfect of course. I loved his work so much that I will be going back for more piercings. Never going to another shop, HIGHLY recommend this place!! :))

I recently visited Ambitious Tattoo to get my nose pierced, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Panda was my piercer, and he was incredible, efficient, professional, and personable. The process was quick, and he made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. We also had a great conversation, which added to the positive experience. I’m extremely satisfied with the result and will definitely be returning in the future. Highly recommend!

Best piercing place! After carefully researching many places to get my daughter’s very first piercing I came across Ambitious Tattoo & Piercings. I called and they informed me what to bring since she is still a minor (15). They were very professional and they even took care of us as a walk in. Panda was very good at providing after care information and it was super quick as well we didn’t have to wait hours. Thank you very much.

Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of the guy who does the piercings but he was amazing! He was very good at keeping me calm and telling me to just focus on my breathing when he was doing the piercing. Even tho I wasn't really nervous because I have had my tongue and belly button pierced, I still really appreciated the service he provided me with. Thank you very much and I couldn't be happier with my new piercing!!

Shout out to Pancho at Ambitious Tattoo - Thank you for my amazing tattoo! Pancho took his time, was chill, professional and gave me honest feedback when I asked him questions. I gave him my tattoo idea and he made it come to life! The shop was clean and everyone's work station was put together - even the restroom (huge +) I highly recommend Pancho as an artist and I will definitely be back soon for my next tattoo.

I highly recommend this place the artist there are professional and they make sure you are getting the quality service you deserve. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Skooby was my artist and my tattoos came out so clean I constantly get compliments on them. I’m going to continue to get the rest of my tattoos there and from Skooby and I recommend you do the same.

Jojo was amazing with both of my daughters. They had nose piercings done. He made them feel relaxed. One of my daughters fainted after the piercing, but Jojo was fast to react and provided her a soda and made her feel at ease. He was very calm and I was glad he was there to help. I will definitely go back to Jojo for any future piercings.

Just to let you all know this establishment is under new ownership as of 1 month ago. Angel Martinez is no longer part of this tattoo shop. They have solid, talented and respectful artist. Don't know why reviews of the old shop are under this new shop if it's under new ownership and different name.

Everyone in here is so welcoming and sweet! Panda is AHMAZING. Definitely recommend coming here for any piercings or tatts. He was super accommodating to my little sister getting her tragus piercing done. Thank you Panda! Bringing anyone that I know needing a piercing or tatt done to Ambitious only!

Solid place. I walked in knowing what I wanted. I was already familiar with their work. They took me in on the spot. Love my tattoo. It's a geometric wolf on my left let. About 10 inches in height. The artist was very nice, patient and informative. Kept a good conversation going with me too.

I was hesitant to come here because of mixed reviews but decided to go in to get my septum done. Everyone was super friendly and professional and informed me they were under new ownership and management now. Panda was the coolest dude and took good care of me. 10/10 will be back for more

Pancho has done my whole sleeve and there’s never been a moment where I didn’t trust his judgment. So many compliments from other tattoo artists and people who are interested. Very reasonable pricing and very efficient on timelines. Highly recommend pancho.

I have been going to Alex ever since I got my first tattoo, before he went to the new shop. Best guy you can get inked by. The shop is brand new with a new renovation and is completely clean. All the other artists and owners are friendly as well. 10/10

Needed an old piercing removed because of the angle I couldn’t get it myself. I walked in and Panda was ready to go, it was super quick and easy, and he was great to talk to! The whole shop was welcoming and friendly! Grateful for the service!

Eddie did the words “Baby Girl” in a beautiful script, I would definitely recommend them because of the wonderful service and the laughs you can’t really get anywhere else. If you’re wondering where to get fast, friendly, funny service 🫶🏻

Panda did my conch and ear lobe piercing. I appreciate how nice and comfortable he made me feel while I was getting my piercing done. Everyone was very friendly and nice in the shop. Will definitely go back for either piercing or tattoo.

Alex Kuo is amazing! His talent goes far beyond the norm and is a spiritual experience for me every time I meet with him. His Japanese style blends ancient with contemporary and he is open to custom ideas. Can’t recommend him enough! 🤙
