The California Dream

I’ve wanted a tattoo from Romeo Lacoste since I was little (10 to be exact). I finally got matching ones yesterday with my husband! It was an awesome experience. He was so friendly and genuine, the shop was very clean and friendly with everyone! I highly recommend this tattoo shop as it has exceeded my expectations! Romeo fan for life!🩵

Don’t get a tattoo from this guy.Terrible experience. Terrible tattoo, lots of germs didn’t switch gloves when texting type of stuff.Unfortunate other tattooers do good work

Outstanding work. Romeo really pays attention to detail. I was so impressed with how everything turned out. Shop was clean as well.Don’t let just anyone do a portrait tattoo. You get what you pay for.

Romeo was one of the nicests guys I have ever met, the other staff member in the studio was also very friendly. The studio was such a nice atmosphere and area having music playing, bottles of water and things to do while you wait. Romeo was quick to write up what I wanted and made sure that everything was right before making it permanent. Romeo was easy to talk to and great when it came to making sure I knew how to take care of my tattoo. Would 100% recommend to anyone who is looking for a great place to get a tattoo

Ive been in for tattoos 3 times already , and I love this shop. It has such a clean environment, it really makes you feel comfortable, I have no complaints with the tattoos Ive got from Romeo he isnt only a great tattoo artist but hes genuinely a nice cool guy. You really do get what you pay for when you come into his shop, and he actually puts his own opinions and ideas into your art , hes very creative and helpful, he just makes the whole experience better. Ill be coming back for my 4th appointment in a couple weeks Im definitely stocked !

If you’re like me and you want a tattoo, but you’re terrified of needles, this place should be your go to! Ive been following Romeo’s work for a long time now, and when you’re putting someone’s art on your body you obviously want it to be absolutely 1st class, industry leading, perfection. Perfection is exactly what I got! Not only was Romeo’s work and artistry amazing, but the shop is really chill with a totally calming atmosphere. Completely worth the flight from Denver! Will absolutely be back!

I got tattooed by Romeo and the experience was great. The tattoo is healing perfect so far and I couldn’t be happier. You really do pay for what you get. He has a light hand and really is a master at his craft. I would recommend to anyone!Update: tattoo is fully healed now and looks just as fresh as the day i left. thank you

Got both arm sleeves done here by Romeo, Awesome experience every time. Everyone is professional and great at what they do! Would recommend you go here for your next tattoo for sure.

Romeo is so nice!!! He has a great heart and truly cares about the guests experience through each small detail in his shop. He puts hard work into everything he does. As the ink from my marker tattoos wear off my experience with Romeo will last forever.

Great tattoo parlor! Ignacio did an amazing job on my tattoo. I will definitely be back for more tattoos

I’ve been wanting to get a tattoo for years. I finally decided to go for it and drove 5-6 hours to get my first tattoo done by Vince. I am obsessed with it and its absolutely perfect. He truly takes pride in his work. The California Dream is by far the best tattoo shop I’ve ever seen. Great atmosphere, extremely clean, and even better vibes and I felt so comfortable. This is the ONLY place to go! I’ll be coming back for sure! Thank you again, Vince!!!

I got my first tattoo here with Andrew Arteaga and I couldnt be happier. I had a rough idea of a design and photos to show him, and he transferred it into an actual design and image that was insanely perfect. He made sure I was stoked about it and made sure I knew how to take care of it after I left since it was my first one. Great experience and Ill be back. Lamar the manager is awesome too and super helpful! Everyone here was really cool.

Great experience with Romeo. Got realistic pieces of pets and a diamond symbol. Romeos attention to detail and experience with art in general sets him apart from the rest.

Just finished healing. Wow!! The detail is insane. No one does it like Romeo and all of the new artists at The California Dream. Highly recommend if you want world class service and options of the most talented artists.

Romeo was awesome! One of the cleanest shops I’ve been to. Staff was very friendly and made sure we were accommodated while waiting. One week later and the tattoo looks just as good as when I got it done!

I had been wanting to have a tattoo done by Cacho (Ignacio) and was so excited when i heard he was going to be in NYC. I booked my appointment only to discover through IG that he left NYC before tattooing me. He never contacted me to cancel, and when I asked about it he said he would reimburse my deposit but never did. Very unprofessional. I missed the red flags... only contacts clients via IG and uses Zelle for payment (which can’t be disputed). After reading everything about Romeo I’d stay away from this place.ETA: 10 weeks later he reimbursed my money. Doesn’t make up for the fact that his cancellation cost me my time and the money I paid for a hotel. :(

Went for the first time and had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere is welcoming and clean. Romeo is amazing and a talented artists. I will definitely be coming back for my future tattoos.

Amazing place!! Very clean and welcoming! I got my tattoos done with Romeo and he was amazing!! He literally took his time with everything and he was very very nice!! Would definitely go back!! :)

Best guy ever, honestly! Super friendly and humble. He does great work and its a clean and nice tattoo studio. The best tattoo experience Ive had and Im fully covered in tattoos. He did my whole neck and back!

Awesome tattoo studio, great setup and staff. Josh helped me outwith some geometric line art done on my shoulder, came out better than expected, definitely going back in the future. Highly recommend them, thanks again!

Vibe in the shop was great, Romeo, great job brother. Location is clean and quiet.

Romeo is so talented and his work is outstanding and unique. Thank you for the amazing piece on my arm brother. I will be back for another tattoo soon.

Great clean place, everyone was super cool, Joshua did my piece and I couldnt be happier! He was super nice, kept checking if I was okay since it was my first tattoo and he did an AMAZING job.

Very pleasant atmosphere. Everyone is professional and friendly. Went in for permanent make up by Prince Rad. He has an eye for details and perfection. The results are amazing!

Profesional and very very good tattoos!Romeo and everybody helped me so much from the area of the tattoo to the design to the process!Booking was easy even though I wasnt in the country at the moment of booking

Everyone there is so nice the shop is spotless clean i got tattooed by vince he’s such a nice guy he makes you feel comfortable & he has such a light hand I didn’t feel anything! Definitely getting another one with him.

Romeo was very nice and made the tattoo experience really great! The shop is always clean and the staff there are very helpful and kind.

This was my first time getting a tattoo and Vince was very nice. I loved the atmosphere of the shop and I was immediately welcomed. My tattoo looks great and I would love to go there again.

I just want to show some love and appreciation to my cousin DrEW ARTEAGA. You went from working out of ur moms garage to living the CALIFORNIA DREAM up in North Hollywood 😎 I stopped by a few weeks ago and I forgot to mention that I am so super proud of you, you have came a long way and u have much more to grow. Keep up the amazing work I love you Pri!!!!!

Left a stunning piece of art on my chest that took a couple days to complete. I could clearly see the talent and effort put into the tattoo and despite being a celebrity, he maintained professionalism throughout the whole process.

Great atmosphere, staff was super friendly, gave great tattoo advice and was amazing overall. Definitely coming back!

Hes a amazing person along with Vince Im glad I met them because They have been there for me since day one when I was in a bad world they were there to help me fight it to be happy again thank you guys

Extremely talanted work, concerned and work with clientele to make sure they get exactly what they want and more. My son who gets the tats has told me this is the only place he will trust with his ink art.

I flew half way across the country to specifically get a tattoo and I was immediately rejected. I walked in and one of the employees told me the shop was closed even though I came an hour after opening. Never again am I supporting Romeo or the shop.

The owner talks about kids which is creepy. I got a tattoo there and was very disappointed by the work. I felt like my kids were in danger being near the owner

Ive never been I live in Houston Texas but I wanna get my first tattoo there, the way people talk about it, and Romeo just sounds really cool

My daughter and son in law went there and had work done from what I can see the work is terrible and multiple tattooist told me as well and they are way over charged for terrible work my son in law got a bear above his knee and it doesnt even look like a bear very poor work

Nice great guy and he has a nice clean studio and he does amazing tattoos!!

Best iv ever had he was nice and I will four come back for my next tattoo
