My husband and I put together have had 4 done with Tony. We refer him to anyone who asks and we keep going back. He has gone outside of his typical style at our request, I can give him an idea and he will run with it. We are always happy with the finished product. Mine are always in provocative spots, (I still want to be perceived as a square at work) and he always makes me feel more than comfortable. read more

Tony is amazing, he's my go to whenever I want a tattoo. Give him your ideas and he'll bring that art to life. It's been nothing but great working with him, he's laidback and easy to talk to - Excited and grateful to continue future sessions with him! read more

I was looking around for tattoo artists for my first tattoo and I came across Irezumi which was close by. His IG showed a lot of finished work which was reassuring and when I contacted them they accommodated me with my schedule. Quoc was super nice and a great conversationalist that it distracted me from the whole process of actually getting my tattoo. Overall a great experience and will be going back to him for the rest of my arm. read more

Tony is an amazing and humble artist! He puts a lot of his feel into his art. If you ask me, he does the most coolest dragon tattoos in the Bay Area. His style is a splendid blend of neo-Asian and traditional Japanese tattoos, bold linings and clean lighting/shading. He's my guy to go, and I'm glad to happy to have him to work on my body suit. Looking forward to future sessions! P.S. I highly suggest you get big pieces such as sleeves with background from him, that's how you see him go at his high potential Thanks always, anh Tony!! read more

I had an amazing time getting tattooed with Tony! He pays such close attention to detail and is super understanding and flexible with making sure my tattoo is perfect! The linework and shading is incredible and he tattoos very lightly and gently so getting my shoulder / collarbone area hurt less than other experiences I had before. I definitely plan on returning here, he is genuinely such a friendly guy and I loved that I got to watch netflix during the tattoo and make conversation. I overall had a great, welcoming, and understanding experience coming here and came out with a sick tattoo. read more

I can't say enough great things about Tony! My very first tattoo ever meant a lot to me, and I decided to get it from here. I'm so happy I did :). Tony's studio is clean and quiet and private, and I always felt comfortable coming here. Fast forward to now, I have several tattoos from different artists, but I can't wait to come back here so I can give him the rest of the space on my arm to complete a full sleeve one day. I got a half sleeve done here because I love Japanese art, and Tony does an amazing job of creating that art as a tattoo. Thank you! I'll be back again! read more

Long overdue, but better late than never! I came to Tony after seeing he was in the area and I am so glad I picked him to be my artist. He has done an amazing job putting my vision into reality doing my chest and working on my back tattoo slowly! He's super accomodating in the clean, private studio that he tattoos at. Honestly, if you want a big or small tattoo, Tony is ya man! He's super versatile to any style, though specializing in irezumi, but don't let that deter you from meeting a great artist like Tony! read more

I was looking to get some letters done on my hand and upon seeing other reviews of Tony's delicate and intricate work, I visited his shop. I was really pleased with the finger tattoos and came back to finish up my hand and add other tattoos. I was nervous about hand tattoos as the sensitive skin is highly susceptible to blow outs.. Tony did a great job, going deep enough where there is good retention without putting so much ink there were any blowouts. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to get a tattoo! read more

I've been meaning to get my final tattoo (I say for now as tatts are addicting) for at least 10 years now. A few days ago on my birthday I decided to get it done at the last minute. I found Tony on Yelp and with the little amount of reviews he had they were all amazing reviews. I contacted him early in the morning via Yelp and maybe within 10-15 minutes he responded just as stated on Yelp. He was available to meet and managed to work his schedule out with another client so I could meet with him earlier as I could not meet him at the time he was available. I have my own design and texted it to Tony as he requested. I asked him to make some changes to my lotus as I drew it in straight lines so it looks kind of weird. When I arrived, he shared his ideas to make some minor changes to my design and I was comfortable with his suggestions. The inking took 1.5 hrs for my design. As mentioned by a couple of Yelp reviewers the tattoo was a little pricey but I believe it's worth is. Everyone that has seen my tattoo since has mentioned how clean and precise the tatt is. Three days later and the area looks clean not red or swollen. Very nice. The studio is very clean and simplistic just enough for you to know he's a tatt artist and he doesn't over do on the decor. He has a table tray which reminds me of the dentist with everything prepped. The needles were individually packed and sealed. As others has mentioned, Tony had a movie on during the whole process if you need a distraction. The Environmental health permit and blood borne pathogen training certificate is posted on the wall by the front visible for all. Overall, I'm happy with this gift I gifted myself. Tony is very sociable and professional. I will definitely return if I decide to change my mind on not having this be my final tattoo. I would recommend Tony to anyone seeking an artist for their tattoo, whether it is their first or last. read more

I've been going to Tony for over 6 years and will be going as long as he is still in business. read more

Today I went in to get a tattoo at Irezumi Tattoo Studio. Even though I have a few tattoos already, I came in and was a little nervous. However once I sat down and started talking with Tony I felt completely at ease. He was professional but still easy to talk to. He discussed with me my options and gave his artistic opinion on the placement and level of shading needed to make tattoo really stand out. I have visited a few different tattoo shops trying to find the spot that I feel would be my go-to spot. I think I found it today. Thank you Tony for the work you put in today. Looking forward to our next session. read more

Tony (the tattoo artist and owner) is such a great host. Each visit and session I have a great fun time, always looking forward to the next one. Meeting tony and discussing about our tattoo off the bat you become close friends with him and makes sure you're comfortable at the same time making sure you get exactly what you ask. I recommended him to my friends and they all could say the same. read more

Tony (the owner) will go the extra mile for you. I came to him with an extremely simple concept on a word document, and about 30 minutes later he had a fully designed tattoo for me. 2 years later, i came back with a chinese character (he doesn't read or speak), and he was able to add on to his previous design within a few minutes. I have an erratic schedule, but he was willing to open 2 hours early to squeeze me in! He's also incredibly clean, he has all of his licenses and certifications posted on the wall, cleans everything with alcohol, THEN saran wraps it for extra cleanliness. He also uses fresh needles for every single patient and frequently cleans the area and applies lotion while working The biggest selling point is probably tony himself. He's an incredible conversationalist and a great person overall, or if you just want to watch netflix he's got that too! His work is incredibly detailed and clean and its obvious that he cares about his artwork and customers. When he was working on my wrist piece, he even took the effort to use less pressure over the tendons to reduce my discomfort! read more

Fast response time, really friendly, patient, art is also top notch, over all great experience :)) read more

I love this studio! Tony is incredible. He contacts you right away. Asks great questions. Very patient. Extremely funny. His shop is very clean! And with all of that!!! The reason why I'm writing this review and NEED everyone to go to his shop is because he genuinely cares about you and the pieces he creates. Here's my experience with Tony & his extraordinary shop: My husband passed away a few months ago of cancer. I wanted something beautiful and with meaning to not only represent my husband but also me and my children. With Tony's help and ideas we came up with my five doves. Of all my tattoos, my doves bring me the most joy and peace. As soon as it was complete, And looked at my arm I knew that my husband was there with me. He would of loved it. The detail in this piece is what I get complimented on. And when people as ask about it. I'm proud to say it came from my friend Tony. read more

Tony is an absolute amazing tattoo artist. He's beyond professional, talented, and understanding. I communicated with him what I wanted showed him some ideas and he free draw something even more beautiful I could have ever imagined. Each session of mine was 3-3 & half hrs. Around $400-480 per session. I've had 5 sessions. You can honestly get a sleeve done with him pretty fast. He's also very reasonable in terms of price. Love my tattoo and how detailed it is. Honestly I only recommend him and would go him read more

I will be direct and honest: Tony is the most accurate tattoo artist I've ever had. Not only is he creative and will show you your tattoo idea exactly how you want it, he gives good suggestions on how to make it better. Then he will make it exactly how you want it on you. He is fast and has a great price. Tony has done my chest, back, a whole arm sleeve, my entire leg. Never been disappointed. read more

Thank you for the artwork Tony, you gave me a beautiful piece to show love for my daughter! read more

Both me and my friend came to get it and both took about an hour which was great seeing how good it looks! We both gave him drawings we drew for the tattoos and he did EXACTLY how its drawn! It was our first tattoo so it was exciting and the pain wasn't bad at all. His studio is sort of hidden inside of a building so you'll have to go up the stairs and down a few doors to find it but once you go in , the place is very clean and bright! Will definitely be going back! read more
