My husband saw a flyer for this place for their black Friday special. Having no knowledge of this place, I looked them up on here. The bad reviews here, didn't scare me a bit, but decided to go in and get it done. And I am very happy that I did! My only compliant was the music was a bit loud. But every bad review I had read, did not happen to me. I got a very friendly experience, my tattoo has turned out wonderful. And we were walk ins. Would seriously consider coming back and getting another tattoo from them. read more

Extremely happy! Very professional and very knowledgeable. No pain or any discomfort. Julio you did exactly what I wanted. Thank you. read more

Pachuco Tattoo - Extremely happy with Julio's work! He didn't exactly what I wanted. Pain free and very professional. - Piercing Near Me - Orange, California

Been getting tattooed here for years & have always received great customer service & experience. The owner is kind , professional , appreciates his clients & it shows. Highly recommend. read more

My brother and I got a very meaningful tattoo here. He came first and brought me thereafter but everyone is so nice and welcoming! The whole process was extremely sanitary while getting tattooed and my healing process was so smooth. Highly highly recommend! I will for sure be coming back for more!! read more

First off I want to start off by saying the tattoo came out perfect the artist that I'm not gonna mention did a great job only reason I'm not giving them a five stars is for the fact that my artist informed me that he would need a hundred dollar deposit to buck my appointment, not knowing that those hundred dollars would not go towards the tattoo so basically if they ask for a deposit that's more like a tip to them you won't get the credit to the tattoo I feel like this is a shady way to conduct business and I will never come back to this tattoo shop if that's the way they run business. read more

I've gotten a few tattoos done here from different artist. Everyone has their own talent and certain things they're particular great at. Look into that before you decide who you want to tattoo you, duh. 3 people I recommend from seeing their work are Hershel- tattoo shop owner, super professional has his own style of tattooing. Been in the business as a tattooer for a while now. Super great at script and he did my favorite piece on my body which are the roses on my shoulder. Look forward to getting more work done from him. He has in own clean style and I personally dig it. Daniel- even though that other girl wrote bad things, don't let that fool you. It's ridiculous how she felt obligated to talk down on him when she never even got tattooed ! Anyway He is very talented and I always see great work coming from him. Robert- I've never gotten work from him before but I plan too eventually. If you want portraits or realism tattoos, he's your guy. You can tell in his work , he's been tattooing for a very long time now. Overall I strongly recommend this shop to my friends and my fellow yelpers! Always good to set up an appointment to carefully choose you artist. Thank you pachuco tattoo keep up your high standards!! read more

I was so nervous to get my first tattoo, but everyone there made me feel so welcome as soon as I walked in. My tattoo artist , Julio, was so professional and creative. I know how intimidating getting your first tattoo could be, but it was definitely a pleasant and super fun experience. Plus all the artists here have tons of experience which is a PLUS! read more

Pachuco's tattoo was a bad experience, they treated me badly, one of the workers was very aggressive, just because he didn't want to use my English, they were very bad in their service, blessings. El tatuaje de Pachuco fue una mala experiencia, me trataron mal, uno de los trabajadores fue muy agresivo, solo porque no quería usar mi inglés, fueron muy malos en su servicio, gracias, bendiciones. read more

I first went in for a consultation with Jorge he understood what I wanted. Love the outcome of my tattoo. Friendly staff and service. Overall loved the service read more

Pachuco Tattoo - Sunflower with names - Piercing Near Me - Orange, California

Honestly this shop is way to hyped up. The tattoo artist was unprofessional. The artist thought it was cool to vape in front of me while we took breaks in between the session. Line work was terrible. I loved the tattoo when he was done but as it was healing I noticed the areas in where he messed up. I got a pretty big tattoo so it was pricey. I expected exceptional work but was very disappointed. I even left a generous tip that I then regretted after examining the tattoo in its healing process. read more

This was the first time visiting this shop. I have always heard really good thing from people that have been here. I follow their Instagram page and really like quality of work that the tattoo artist create. I came in for a very small tattoo and Fili was my tattoo artist. I am very satisfied with how it came out as well as the customer service. Fili was very clean through the whole process. He was also very professional and out going!The environment is super cool and laid back. read more

Went and got a small tatt four words ran me $80 bucks after it was finished healing two of the words were faded pretty bad. Reached out to the artist to see if I can get a touch up and he told me it would be $60. $60 for two words when the tatt was $80 is crazy. Money hungry for real Juan. read more

I've been coming to Pachuco tattoo to see Danny for about 3 years now and I've gotten a total of 5 tattoos. I only trust Danny and he takes his time and is truly a perfectionist when it comes to his work. His work is always on point and no matter what I want tattooed he gets them perfect. I always get compliments on my tattoos and have recommended so many of my friends to Danny and they all have loved his work. Pachuco is a clean shop and everyone there is super friendly. Every time I go in there's always a good vibe. I definitely recommend making an appointment. You won't regret it! read more

I got a tattoo done by Herchell and he did an amazing job. Good prices, Amazing work, Nice guy and a good environment to be in. I plan on getting my full sleeve done by Herchell. read more

Unfortunately I wrote this review way too soon. My tat healed HORRIBLY; in fact, 4 diff shops say they have never seen scarring so bad. I followed Herchell's instructions to a tee. I have 2 other tats with color from the past w/ absolutely No Scarring ...other artists believe he overworked the tat (all scarring is in the areas he did the shadowing.) this is my main issue: his lack of professionalism w/ following up & his desire to fix his own work. I would text him questions about the tat, send pictures etc. & he RARELY responded - sad, especially with him knowing how bad it healed & all the scarring. I was soooo stressed about this tat (it's huge & ugly) and he would respond to my texts WEEKS later. Or, I would have to text 3-4x just to get a response. Every time I called he never answered, so I tried making an appointment just to talk and that didn't even work. I finally gave up and just as I expected he never followed up. He initially offered a free retouch but clearly he did not mean it. Finally he tried to blame his unprofessionalism on some stomach health issue he had, but so interesting that he stayed posting on Instagram multiple times a day but couldn't respond to a paying client's text message. I DO NOT recommend Herchell, biggest mistake of my life literally. I have a huge ugly faded PERMANENT blue blob on my shoulder with MAD scarring. read more

Don't be fooled by the pretty pictures. That won't be the finished result once the tattoo is healed. I had my tattoo done by Herchell, a cover up, and I am beyond disappointed. It was done 3 months ago and it already looks faded, and it's not what I asked for even though I showed him what I wanted was his own work and you can see the entire old tattoo. There's no depth in the tattoo, it's flat. I strongly suggest for anyone wanting to get a tattoo by someone in this shop to ask for references and take a good look at the finishing result. Save yourself the grief. read more

I went in a couple of nights ago to talk to Daniel & ended up talking to rusty, who was very polite & helpful, because Daniel wasn't there after he told me he would be. He then told me to come in at 5 on Sunday to get my tattoo done & didn't even show up, no text or anything. I waited around for 30 minutes before I got upset & left. The place seemed unprofessional overall with guys yelling at the football game & drinking beer in the waiting area. I'm actually glad Daniel didn't show up because I'd rather find somewhere else to get my tattoo done anyway. read more

Came here once,Was recommended by my tattooed family Most of the guys are professional & are talented artists My ONLY complaint was having to sit thru almost my whole tat session hearing one of the artist talk nonsense about baseball. annoying dodger fan who ironically i think is named Ångel. PATHETIC ! Besides that nuisance, I was treated well. ( was even offered a CHICKEN SANDWICH ) & was invited to shoot pool & play fifa on the 360 Slick Vick did a sweet Tat on me, came out killer !!! I think I've found my new Tattoo temple, keep up the awesome work Herchell!! read more

Out of the the few tattoo shops I've been to Herchel and his team at pachuco were fantastic. From the minute I walked in I knew I found my permanent spot. Would recommend to anyone who might be looking to get work done. Herchel took an idea that was floating around my head for an entire year, and put it to paper. read more

I highly recommend Herchell @rockrollg for tattoos , I have gotten about 5 big tattoos on my body, I drive from The Valley all they way to OC ! I have gone with different artists and was hesitating , I finally met Herchell and was comfortable with him and his work, his roses are on point, he pays attention to detail and hooks you up with free gear! I'm definitely not going with anyone else even if they offer me a cheaper price, I get treated like a family member with this guy, the environment is dope, and his coworkers are always cracking jokes ! read more

Placed an appointment a week in advance with a friend of an "artist". The week comes just to find out there's another appointment scheduled and that my appointment is being dissolved. Not very professional if you ask me. You know who you are, thank you. read more

Don't waste your time w this lame ass foo named Juan lmao thinking he all cute and all that lmaoooo. First, he confirms my appointment and his ass doesn't show up or answer his phone. Had to come back to a shop again and he rushed my tattoo and I didn't even get it how I wanted. Told me he had another client that popped up and he needs to work on her design lol wtf. Told me to come back next time to get my shit done. Wasted $300 for some small ass shit that needs a retouch but homie said he doesn't do touch up for free even though he told me he does his touch up for free if it's his own work. Lol I have never heard of anyone not touching their shit up for free to go over shit they might've missed especially if all the lines ain't symmetrical from the first session. Some lines were thick and curvy, hella parts are faded, and shading is not even. This ain't the first review about this dumb f* doing this lame shit lol. You are money hungry lmao people would tip your ass and would actually go back to you if you don't charge people for touching up your lame work, idiot read more

This is one the best shop around .they are really professional with their work and make you feel really comfortable. Very great artist in that shop. I would recommend everyone I know to go here . Herchell fix my tattoo that was mess up and it came out really epic ! read more

Pachuco Tattoo - Before on top After on bottom Came out great !!I love it - Piercing Near Me - Orange, California

(PHOTO INCLUDED) Probably the worst tattoo shop I've been to. I went here with my boyfriend and his friend and they both got beautiful pieces, once it was my turn (with the same guy) i sat down and the guy proceeded to tell me he needed a break and left for an hour. Once he came back I showed him my artwork (a very basic, clean diamond) and then he sat me down to start. He didn't even clean or sanitize my arm!? gross. Anyways once the tattoo was done it was super super swollen so it looked all dark and crisp as I wanted. Once finished he didn't wrap it or apply any aquaphor/ointment. Mind you, I have full sleeves so I know how to properly take care of a tattoo so it heals perfectly so the outcome of this tattoo was not on my part. I can't explain how much I hate this thing it literally looks like it was drawn on with pencil by a half-blind 3 year old. Can't wait to get this thing covered up. Unfortunately I can't even remember the guy's name but beware of this place. read more

Pachuco Tattoo - half the lines don't even match and most aren't even connected - Piercing Near Me - Orange, California

I recently went to go get a tattoo with RICO. He did an amazing job. Me and my sisters got a matching tattoo we had an idea of what we wanted and he made it so much better. Before starting he printed out a lot of sizes to see what size we exactly wanted. He was very patient and attentive. Here and there he would ask us if we were okay while in the process of getting it done . Not an awkward moment . I really recommend him . I would totally be going back . Thank you Rico. read more

I had the best experience here. Not only was their customer service great but my tattoo was above and beyond what I imagined it would be. I had Herchell do my tattoo and he made sure we were on the same page as far as our ideas and what I wanted in the end. He was very informative, professional, creative and patient to make sure I got exactly what I wanted. If you're looking for a place to go that has friendly people, great customer service and even better skill work, I highly recommend you come to Pachuco Tattoo! read more

Went in for the $20 tattoo on Friday the 13th. My artist was flexible and easy going. The tattoo is a bit crooked but it's tiny so barely noticeable. Plus it was $20! The guy taking down names was cool and even gave everyone free donuts. The wait time was about 1 hr and 10 mns even though it was really busy. read more

Got my first tattoo done here and my artist Jorge was amazing!! I love my tattoo! Much love to the team as well!! Amazing service

I have been coming here for some time now. I was looking around for an artist and was recommended Rick(Rixta) through a mutual friend. Since i have been going i had multiple pieces done and still plan on going back to eventually finish off a sleeve. All the artist are incredible at what they do. read more

My friend recommended this place, so we booked an appt to come see Jake. I wasnt nervous at all, in fact, I was relaxed. I went first. Jake helped me calm down by having me take deep breathes. Well...that kind of helped, and by midway outline, I was making all kinds of weird sounds, cussing, and making weird faces. Jake took it, lol and he kept on trucking. By the time the coloring part came, I was doing good. He totally knew what he was doing, so professional, calming demeanor, and overall AWESOME!!!! I will be coming back for another tattoo from Jake! go see Jake!!! read more

This is my fourth time coming to Pachuco Tattoo Shop , each and everytime the vibes have been good , the first two times I was tattooed by Andy ( doesn't work here anymore ) my tattoos looked dope , the third time I came in with my cousin and Jake came to talk to us , She got hers done by him and I talked to Andrew and he did my lipstick, both of the guys were super nice, this time I came into their new location and met Ramiro , who did one behind my ear pain free and everything , I'm loving it , he was super quick and really easy going, my aunt came in and got hers done by Rico and he was also really nice and his work was done nicely , point being , I have found my tattoo shop , each and every artist is dope and the shop in general is really welcoming , most definitely recommend coming here . read more
