I came in for a cover-up of a tattoo that I hated for 20 years. And regretted for 20 years. You cant even tell there was anything there anymore. I got a tattoo for my father who always called me Peachitas. Like little peaches. He would have loved my tattoo too. I love my tattoo. It is an amazing peach tree with a purple ribbon through the branches for pancreatic cancer. I have gotten so many compliments already. The detailing is amazing. He worked hard to make sure I got something I truly wanted before he even put it into place. It is absolutely beautiful!

My friend and I took a road trip together to Arizona and decided to get matching friend tattoos to commemorate this fun time together. We walked in on Friday and they were very helpful with getting us set up for our tattoo appointment, our artist Q was even awesome enough to stay late on Halloween night to make sure we were both able to get our tattoos done before we had to leave. He was super nice, his work was extremely clean and precise. Our full color tattoos came out beautiful and exactly how we were hoping they would. Thank you guys for making our trip extra special.

Very happy with Grand Ave! Spooks did tattoos for me & my husband. He was super friendly, professional, clean, and his work is outstanding. I highly recommend him! My daughter also got her nose pierced and their piercer was wonderful. I will be back in a few days for a 3/4 sleeve and I cant wait! Thanks!

My husband and I walked in wanting 2 smaller tattoos each. Q immediately helped us and asked Spooks to help as well. Q did mine and Spooks did my husbands. They all turned out how we wanted them to and they gave us a great price. The place was easy to find, clean, and the people were friendly. Highly recommend going to these guys/gals.

Really nice clean place. The artists are incredibly talented and professional. I got to have the pleasure of having Garrett do my tattoo as a walk in. He was not judgmental at all about what I chose to get tattooed and super professional. I got a small one about 3-4 inches long and he still made sure to incorporate all his talent and skills into even a small a piece as mine. I left feeling so happy with it. It came out great! Was deff worth the money I paid for it. I recommend 10/10 service. 🙌🏼

So this place is awesome and I feel comfortable being here. Spider was my artist of choice and hands down he does great work. I’ve also had a couple piercings and they turned out amazing. I love this shop and will definitely be back thank you for your amazing work!!

Recently had a cover up started after searching long and hard for someone to do this for me. The artists and staff at Grand Avenue Tattoo & Piercing were extraordinary.I had the pleasure of having Spider start my cover up and its already looking so good.Love them. Spider is the awesomest 😁

Unlike what other posts say, I am not leaving a five star review for free aftercare, I am leaving it because it’s well deserved. I was nervous about getting my first overtly visible tattoo, so I wanted it to be perfect. Had a great experience from the start- Gray at the front desk is super personable and helpful! Andrew is everything you can ask for in a tattoo artist. He took the time to really listen to what I wanted and was totally up front about the limitations of the design and size I wanted. He worked with me to create the perfect design that had all the elements I was looking for and ensured the placement was exactly even. Every step was cleared about what we were doing. There were some really hard lines in the design that would have shown any sloppy work so it had to be dead on and Andrew freaking delivered on point. Truly impeccable and exactly what I had been wanting for so long. I couldn’t be happier with the results and am already thinking about how to make it a full sleeve! Pricing was upfront from the start and very reasonable for the quality received. I saw other artists working while I was sitting and their work and attention to detail seemed high quality as well. If you want a cheap $50 tat, pick from a flash sheet in Vegas, but if you want an awesome piece you can be proud of, go to Grand Ave. They will be getting a lot of my money from now on!

Wow! I’m writing this review because this shop and our amazing artist George 100% earned 5 stars. My little sister recently turned 18 and neither of us have ever had a tattoo. This was our first experience at a tattoo shop but something we’ve been planning for years. Neither of us knew what to expect, how to prepare, or what the experience would be like. The shop was incredibly clean, everyone was polite and friendly and the whole shop has a very welcoming vibe. Our artist George was awesome! He spent a lot of time talking with us and answering our questions. He was really friendly, very professional and clearly has an amazing passion (and talent) for what he does. We got simple small black line tattoos but he really took the time to make sure they were perfect and exactly what we wanted. He made it a very non-intimidating experience. This shop really cares about making your experience the best, which I really appreciated. Without a doubt I would recommend them to anyone looking for quality work at a great shop.

Super amazing people and very professional. Shout out Wes Norman! If you are looking to get a piercing there is no better place or person to go to. Will make the experience super quick and painless and is very informative, professional, and precise with his work so if you had any worries trust me you’ll be in good hands. You will love it!

Super great service, everyone was super kind and professional. I got my first tattoo here yesterday (done by Spooks) and would definitely recommend. Spooks made me feel super comfortable and everything went smoothly and I love the results!!!

Piercer Wes was SUPER polite and professional, talked me through the whole process and made the whole experience super comfortable and easy.

Wes was nice and quick. Made it super painless and made sure it was in a perfect spot for my nose piercing.

Very simple and easy. Very clean and friendly. Would recommend

Loved it. Tattoo artist and employees were friendly. Nice setting. Will definitely return for future tattoos.

Got my 1st Tattoo here, the artist that worked on me (Q) did an absolute phenomenal job. I couldnt be more happier with the quality and the design he made. I will absolutely be coming back for anymore additional tattoos I want.

I had an ear piercing here and it did not hurt at all. The best place to get piercing in Phoenix!!

Peace and blessings. Good vibes. Great People.

I recommend this shop. The customer service when I walked it was great. The receptionist was pleasant and understanding of what I was looking for. She paired me with an available artist who she felt best fit what I was looking for.I came in on a whim as it was the day after my deceased sons birthday and I wanted something small to honor him. I fully expected to be sent away with an appointment instead I walked out with a beautiful reminder of my son.Andrew knocked it out of the park. He took the time to listen to me about what I wanted and why it meant so much. He even found a way to add extra personalization to my tattoo. He was honest with me about cost, as well as if adding color was even worth it. I appreciated that as he could have easily pushed the color,that he knew would fade out with my skin tone and placement of the tattoo, for that extra buck but he didnt.The shop was clean, people friendly and location is easy to get too.I will definitely be returning for more work in the future.

They are super friendly, informative and professional. Was a super easy and convenient process. Definitely would recommend anyone to come here if they want piercings

Got a tattoo and I love it, definitely would come again.

Great place! Gina was super kind and very professional. Customer service was also great! Will definitely be returning if I decide to get another tattoo :)

Second time in the shop. Great atmosphere and awesome staff. My wife and I came in to get tattooed for our anniversary. Gotta say Q hit it out of the ball park. Very detailed literally what each of us had envisioned!!! Today we brought our daughter in for a piercing and that went awesome as well. Already planning our next tats!

I HATE PAIN. There is no zen state for me when i get ink, so if i am going to put myself through the process then the tatoo has to mean something. This one does. Gina at Grand Avenue did a great job making this a reality. The shop is clean and professional, and Gina was patient and kind. I have gotten at least a hundred compliments online and its been less than 24 hours! Thank you Gina! Will be reccommending Gina and Grand Ave Tatoo to anyone who will listen!

I came here for my first tattoo and honestly, I was not disappointed. I was initially going to get it done on my ribs but they advised against it and I’m grateful for that. They were professional and the artist was also very friendly. I made it through my session (about an hour and a half) without needing any breaks, and I don’t think I have a high pain tolerance. I don’t even stay in AZ but I’m thinking about coming back for my future tattoos; GO FOR IT!!!

I was a Saturday walk in after just losing my pup. I was concerned the artist would be aggravated with such a simple tattoo but Spider made me feel so comfortable. This is my first tattoo (3 previous) that didn’t turn red. He was very conscientious and kind. I’m already planning to return to have Spider do my 5th tattoo. He was awesome.

I was a Saturday walk-in after suddenly losing my pup. I was concerned the artist would be aggravated with doing such a simple tattoo but Spider made me feel very comfortable. This is the first tattoo (3 previous) that didn’t turn red. He was so gentle and kind. I’m already planning to go back to Spider for my fifth tattoo.

Super kind and professional workers, i got my medusa pierced today and my piercer clearly knew what he was doing. He made sure the placement was perfect and the piercing itself took less than a minute to do, barely felt it at all. Everyone there was super kind to me and i would definitely recommend coming here!

Grey was a great informant about made the instructions clear. My piercer was really calm and made me feel safe about the whole thing.

Definitely recommend this place. I will be coming back forsure!! Q is an amazing artist.

Showed up 3 hours before closing and had a perfect sketch from he artist Sely in less than 15 minutes. Very inviting environment, would highly recommend getting a tattoo here.

Loved everything about this place. Super comfy place, the vibe and the people are friendly and super amazing. Definitely coming back for future piercings. 🙌

Wes was so good with my love piercings! He was very reassuring and made sure I was comfortable and knew everything I needed. The staff is all very friendly and professional. I would definitely come back!

Garrett was my artist and he did an amazing job for me and my sisters tattoos! He was professional and efficient. Made me feel comfortable because I was a little tense because it’s been years since I got a tattoo. We traveled from Detroit,MI and we will definitely be back next year to get another one

I was just in shp getting a tatoo and was attended by Gina. She is great. I was very satisfied with the service . I will definitely go back best place around here. The place is very clean and the people are very nice. And my tatoo was the best thank you very much Gina for you service.

This tattoo and piercing shop is amazing! Artists are very nice and honest with their work! I only got a septum piercing and it was done perfectly! Will definitely come back for more work!

Knowledgeable and nice. Did a great and thorough job. The piercer was awesome. Highly recommended!

Payed $700 for a thigh piece of a Phoenix last year thats pretty terrible. Half of the lines are wobbly and connect at the wrong places and the color is patchy and overlapping in places it shouldnt be. I didnt realize how bad it was until I got 4/5 more tattoos that were actual good quality. Got my work done by spider, but Im not going to say his work reflects the quality of everybodys in the shop.

It was my first time getting my ears pierced and honestly it went so good. Everyone was so nice and patient. I definitely recommend this place to anymore who’s looking for a tattoo place or a piercing.

I received a nose piercing from Melly, she talked me through the process the whole time, executed the piercing without incident. Great placement and and aftercare instruction. Thanks Melly

I was greeted nicely, asked what i would like and given price and other details, They were very fast and efficient with the process, and the piercer was very kind and talked and explained the process. The whole experience was very nice :)

My friend and I walked into this place and immediately felt uncomfortable. The guy that gave me my tattoo was rude right off the bat. I felt extremely judged by every worker inside this shop. The tattoo artists never gave us their names either...all of the workers there are RUDE! When I was finished getting my tattoo, the artist put plastic and DUCT TAPE on my fresh tattoo which led to me getting blood all over my clothes. The artist that did my friend’s tattoo forced us to give him a good review...that’s the only reason why this place has five stars. Totally unacceptable. Any tattoo shop is better than this place.

I highly recommend this shop just got my second big piece done by Gina she’s super chill awesome personality great to work with makes you feel very comfortable all-around good vibes!

I walked in and got a simple tattoo by Isaiah. He was very professional and answered all of my questions as a first time tattoo getter. I love the outcome and would definitely recommend him as an artist especially for script tattoos.

I’ve gone to Halo Precision Piercing in Phoenix for 90% of the piercings I’ve gotten, but I wanted to switch things up a bit (not because of anything having to do with Halo—I just wanted to try something new, you know?).I have to say that of all the times I’ve been pierced, this time at Grand Avenue was probably the best. I’d never gotten an oral piercing and was a little nervous, but I kid you not when I say it barely hurt (I mean, it’s a needle stabbing your face, but on the grand spectrum of piercing pain, this lip piercing was a mosquito bite).Wes was super professional, quick (but I never felt that my walk-in appointment was rushed), and clean. I really appreciated his attention to placement and angle—I’ve had piercings before that were placed well, but the angle was skewed into the high heavens, and have had to have them redone immediately (ow) or removed. Wes explained the whole process both before and during the piercing, was gentle, and gave clear aftercare instructions.Good conversation and music, too (unless, for some reason, you don’t like 80s new wave music). Looking forward to this piercing being healed so I can put a ring in it. Good stuff—I’ll be going back, no doubt.

First time getting a tattoo! And I’m glad I came to this location! Gina, did such an amazing job!

This place was rude. Lady said “sorry I’m an artist!!” in a rude tone. Located in a sketchy area

This tattoo shop has my heart, I got a quick response and got an amazing tattoo artist George. Everyone that works here is so nice and welcoming. He made me feel comfortable and made sure my needs were met. I got a beautiful tattoo of my grandparents names in Cambodian writing. It’s just perfect. You won’t regret coming here. This won’t be my last. Thank you!!

Great experience. It was quick and easy. Everyone was professional and made me feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

They were able to get my mom, sister and me in for mother daughter tattoos same day walk-in. Q is who tattooed us and he did such a great job. Super happy with the end result. Will definitely recommend this place to friends.

I absolutely LOVE this place, and will definitely be returning.I sent Spider a few pictures i liked and let him design something based on those images, and he ran with it and hit the mark better than I anticipated. The design he had set up for me was BEAUTIFUL, and when he finished it looks like he just slapped the picture straight onto my arm. I cant wait to come back and get more ink done here.Also, since i was getting tatted most of the day, I was able to observe other people in the shop and I gotta say every one there is AWESOME. They all keep everything super clean, they listen to the requests being made, theyre thorough with instructions on how to keep your tattoo and piercings clean and what to expect. This is going to be my place to go for all my tattoos and piercings while i live in Phoenix, and i HIGHLY recommend going in.Thanks again Spider!!!!!

I came in to get tattooed by Matt, he went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure I was happy with the design of the tattoo. His workspace was clean, he was very meticulous while tattooing me, ensuring that I was comfortable and happy the entire time! The entire staff here are awesome and super friendly too. I HIGHLY recommend coming in to grand avenue tattoo for any of your future tattoos! Thank you Matt and thank you Grand Ave!

Literally had the best time here! The people were so nice and a lot of fun. Made my tattoo experience even better. Would definitely recommend coming here to anyone!

Just got my second piercing done and Wes did a great job. He was very patient and knowledgeable. He answered all of my questions and walked me through the process before he started. Would definitely recommend.

Wes was cool, I appreciated his attentiveness in ensuring my satisfaction with my piercing. He answered all the questions I had any concerns about. The service I received was professional and respectful.I left satisfied with three new piercings. Just a heads up they accept cash only but they do have a couple of ATM machines inside. The atmosphere and background music was nothing but good vibes bruh.

Absolutely brilliant service. The staff were very friendly and professional. I felt like I was in excellent hands. Will definitely be coming back here!

Avery is the best. Friendly, talented, creative and very good attention to detail.Ive reached Avery over on instagram and scheduled the appointment right away. Avery helped me with developing the design idea I had in my mind. Added his expertise and intusion. The result is such an impeccable tattoo. Thanks a ton Avery, appreciate it brother.The place is very good, clean and friendly. Following the safe distancing and covid compatible cleaning.

Chris did an amazing job with my kids hand tattoed on me . very clean and professional. Def recommend chris to anyone!

Got my fox tattoo by Chris he hooked me up with a nice tat.

Isaiah was amazing! We tweaked my tattoo and he made it just right. I walked in late and they were still willing to make sure I had a quality tattoo and didn’t mind the time. I recommend this place to anyone!!!

Wes did a killer job!! He pierced my helix and nostril very quickly and walked me through each step he was doing and that was pretty freaking awesome! 10/10 having him do my next piercings!

I literally never leave reviews for places but I felt like I needed to. Both my husband and I are from the east coast and while he’s out here working, we wanted to get matching tattoos. I emailed a few places hoping to get an appointment since they were very simple quotes and this was the first place to get back to me. While a few other places did reach out, Georgie made me immediately feel like this was the right place. He was super helpful and flexible about scheduling the tattoo since I had a limited time frame. Skip to the day of and I absolutely love this shop. Everyone in there is awesome and friendly (not to mention the shop just looks dope) Georgie was super understanding and eased my husband into getting his very first tattoo. He’s an awesome artist as well as everyone else there. If you’re even considering going here, just do it!

Amazing experience here! Highly recommend. Chris did a fantastic job and was super patient with the design but it turned out even better than I expected! Sully was also great and helped me start to design another tattoo I’ve been wanting. If you’re looking for a great, clean,safe place with awesome staff, this is it!

Got matching tattoos here🥰 the artists were amazing. garret was an mvp, the music hit, will be coming back again !!:)

Sely was great! He designed exactly what I asked for and it turned out beautiful!!

Was on vacation and last minute decided we wanted tattoos! We went for a walk in and got in in less than a half hour! I got mine done with Gina and she did such an amazing job! I wanted a super small dainty line tattoo and she got me done in 10 minutes making me feel safe, clean, and quick! Would highly recommend coming here if you’re looking for any sort of new ink 😉 (insert tattoo lingo)

Wes and Melly created the best piercing experience Ive ever had! The space was safe, clean, down to earth, and my piercings turned out gorgeous due to Wess 20+ years experience. He cares about the quality of his work and it shows. Far surpassed my expectations!🤘❤️

Had a great experience at grand ave tattoo. Wes did my piercing and he was very nice and professional . Would definitely recommend this place.

Great experience. Got my Tragus done and it was quick and easy. Wes & Melly walked me through the whole process. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

George was very professional and made sure everything was clean and ready to go for my first tattoo!

First time at the shop and couldnt be more pleased with the service and my bad a$$ tattoos done by Gina. Shes professional and answered my questions throughly. I could tell by watching her she loves what shes doing and her work showed it. Really nice lady. I will be a returning customer. Even had the opportunity to meet the owner, nice guy. The place has a welcoming atmosphere and you feel at ease right away.

Got my first piercing with Wes, very professional and fully explained everything and eased my nerves! Will definitely be back!

Great service! Would 100% recommend!!

Had such a good experience piercing my helix here. They are very precise, careful and professional. Definitely recommend!

Wes was really good and kept me calm throughout the whole process. It was a great first time experience will definitely be coming back soon💯

DON’T come here! My sister and I came for a walk in after reading so many positive reviews. Turns out that they give you free aftercare if you leave a five star review — most of these reviews aren’t genuine. The line work in my tattoo is wavy, varies in thickness, and overall looks terrible. Me and my sister got the same design and they look totally different. Save yourself a huge mistake and don’t come here.

The tattoo I got was one I’ve been wanting to get for a long time, it means so much to me, I came to AZ from Chicago and came to Grand Avenue and they are the definition of a pro tattoo shop. Gina was incredible and gave me the best tat I’ve ever got!! HIGHLY recommend!!

Went in and showed Spider my idea and what i wanted. He put it all together and i ended up wanting it changed. He completely changed it and did it all the same day. It was super intricate and detailed. He was super nice and fun to hang with. The tattoo turned out phenomenal!

From the outside I wouldnt think very much of this place however the reviews are what brought me here. My friend and I went in to get tattoos and we were greeted instantly. We told them what we wanted, and they found the perfect way to put it together. Very clean shop and huge on the inside. George did such a beautiful job on my piece and made me feel very welcomed and comfortable. Thanks guys. Ill be back soon!

I went there twice they did amazing job both of my tattoos Im obsessed of both of them I really recommend going there.

Just used this shop today and Its super dope. I had Isaiah who did my “1996” on my neck. He was very chill and professional. Made me seem like I was in control of everything and I was comfortable the whole time. I recommend him for sure!

It was a very amazing environment and our artist Spider did a phenomenal job on my tattoo and my bsfs tattoo. Will 100% be coming back to the amazing place in the future!!!

Went to get my septum pierced and had a great experience here! I was so nervous but Wes was great at explaining everything and making me feel at ease. Super clean and quick! Will be back!!

Spooks was AWESOME! He was friendly and professional! Great work!

Prices were way to high! I have one guy I almost always go to and this was twice as much for half the work. I walked out. It is amazing how they get to be little people who tell it how it is. Dirty place, I could have said way more. Talk about weak. And if you would like we can bring in a real tattoo artist and see what you think😁. No wonder you are in the ghetto.

Chris was awesome! Im super happy with my tattoo. I appreciate him taking me as a walk in! I recommend visiting this shop- good people and atmosphere, as well as customer service.

Got my left nostril pierced. The piercer walked me through the entire process. Answered all my silly questions. He made two marks, one that was aesthetic to my facial features and the other to the new trend of the small hoop. I went with the first aesthetic placement. I love it!!

It was quick and easy. The piercer warned me and helped what to do in order to keep it clean. Thank you, will return soon.

Super welcoming shop! Everybody there was very nice and seemed to all be extremely talented artist. I was surprised to see how big the shop actually was! and for how clean they keep it is even more impressive!! Me personally first impression walking in determines the entire experience and everyone there made me feel right at home. The quality of worked that I received by the Artist Chris Rump was out standing. He pulled clean consistent lines and smacked the shade work out exactly how I wanted it! He had a super steady flow and didnt dig into my skin once. Highly recommend shop and Artist. Will definitely be back to see Chris very soon! 10/10!! GrandAveTattoo is definitely the shop to stop at!

My wife and I walked in with some ideas... we were greeting awesomely and Sely was great with working with us and helping guide our wants. Would for sure recommend.

It is great good treatment very friendly, hygiene a lot a very excellent place 👌

GREAT experience. Garrett BG was my artist and I was impressed. Professional and clean. I will be back again.

Gina Noyce is an incredible upcoming artist. She just did a beautiful neo-traditional “all seeing eye” hand tattoo and it’s absolutely incredible. She was prompt, friendly and easy to work with in addition to being very professional. The shop was very clean, sterile and the entire staff was friendly, down to earth and all around a great crew. Definitely will be referring Gina Noyce and the shop to others! Thank you for an awesome experience. #StayRad

West and Mely did a Great Job with my nipple piercing, the process was fast and they keep me informed about every details they did, i will come back for my next work!! They are already great! Incliding the front desk girl .. great place !

I had Santos draw my first real piece a week or so ago and sat for 7 hrs while he patiently worked in it. Super cool guy and shop. I have plans to go back for many more. I would absolutely recommend. Even down to great after care instructions. Thanks Santos see ya again soon. Start working on the next piece!

Grey and Wes were accommodating and awesome to work with!

Awesome service! Friendly people who give great care! Will for sure return soon :)

Okay so I just got a tattoo done by Chris aka Spider, and I was super anxious at first but he made the environment comfortable and easy going for me and it ended up being a really great experience!! I highly recommend him :)

Got a vertical labret lip piercing by Wes and it turned out amazing. Wes is an experienced, professional, sanitary, and comforting piercer and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I called the shop and was able to come in that day and the atmosphere was great! Would come back 100%

THE BEST IN ARIZONA!! Amazing!! My fiancé and I came here for a few tattoos. Q did an unbelievable job, especially on the sleeve. Will be back very soon! @artworkbyQ
