Adam was awesome from start to finish. This was my first session of two with him and I had never been to him before. Im new to the area and he came highly recommended from a friend. My friend was right! The shop environment was friendly and laid back, but Adam took every precaution to make sure I had a great experience. They were super clean and professional, while being fun and easy going. 10/10 would recommend this shop!

My friend got her nose pierced and I got my ears pierced here. Janessa was AMAZING!! The best piercer I’ve ever had - talked us through it and addressed every concern we had. She made us feel very comfortable and it was overall an amazing experience. 100% recommend!

Had an amazing experience! Called and had a same day appointment for both my husband and I. We were greeted right away with a big smile from a blonde haired beauty 💛 Brittney came over and helped me customize my tattoo with a variety of pictures that I had. She was wonderful and so sweet. My artist was Houston, and he did outstanding work. Super chill, and very detailed oriented. Precision at its finest. Very clean, relaxed environment and I will definitely be going back to them for my next tattoo. 10/10 Recommend!

I went to this tattoo shop for the first time 10 years ago after going to a different shop in town for my first tattoo and I never looked back. Empire is the ONLY shop I will go to now and it will continue. They make you feel at home and loved all while getting the best pieces of art on your body that you can imagine. I’ve had probably a dozen session with Adam in the past two years we’ve been back in town. I now refuse to go anywhere else and Empire is my second home. Anytime I need anything I go in and get exactly what I need all while I feel like I’m hanging out with family. Honestly the best tattoo shop I’ve ever been to.

Kelsey was an absolute pleasure! She helped my daughter design a tattoo and made her feel right at home! My daughter just turned 18 and this was her first tattoo and she is so happy with it! Adam also walked in and chatted it up with us, just a genuinely friendly interaction! I was really impressed with them so much that I too am going to get my 1st tattoo there! Thanks Kelsey for a great tattoo! I look forward to working with you in the future.

I saw Kelsey for my first ever tattoo on Wednesday. Not only is she an amazing artist, but she made me feel comfortable and talked to me as though we had been friends for years! The other staff members were also incredibly friendly and Ive NEVER felt like this in a business. Kelsey made me feel safe and comfortable during our session and Ive already recommended her to multiple people in the area.

I’ve been going to Empire since I was 18! I’ve gotten 4 of my tattoos done here. 2 by Adam 2 by other artists and have never been disappointed. Adam and Hali are absolutely amazing and their shop is such a great environment they treat everyone like family and it’s always a good time around them. Anytime someone asks what’s the best tattoo shop in town I always tell them Empire Tattoo is the best hands down not only do they make you feel extremely comfortable, you’ll always have good laughs and they do amazing work!

I have never been to a better tattoo shop. Adam took the time to consult with me and brainstorm ideas. He created this gorgeous addition and fixed my mother’s remembrance tattoo. I am beyond grateful to have experienced this great service, but they make you feel like family! Lovely, talented staff and all around good people!!

I knew this was the right place as soon as I walked in the door. This was my first tattoo. I needed artistic input and someone who was confident giving it. Adam did the work. He is so talented. I watched him and was in awe. I gave him the idea and he customized to make it my own. I couldn’t be happier. The business was a wonderful mix of very creative people, a hairless cat and a sprinkling of well behaved, intelligent children. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

I absolutely love this Tattoo shop and all of the Artists that work there!!!

First off this was Hands down best tattoo work I’ve had done! Great atmosphere you’re comfortable and have a good time which is pretty hard to do while getting jabbed with ink all over the ribs for hours, but empire tattoo pulls it off effortlessly. Adam is overly talented and professional, all the work I’ve seen from his other artists is amazing as well. I will be back, I’ve actually already booked my next appt.

Review №37

My friend and I came to this shop to get a new piercing, after talking with Janessa, who was a great help in selecting the right piercing for me due to size constraints on what I originally wanted, I was able to get a highly recommended piercing that I enjoy and feel looks great! From start to finish the whole process was enjoyable and had less pain than I expected due to the skills and knowledge of Janessa! The environment in the store was comfortable and fun! I would gladly recommend checking this place out for almost anything needed when it comes to Tattoos and piercing

This place is great!! Super clean with some talented individuals. I recently got a piercing done by Janessa and hands down, she’s the best I’ve been to yet. By the time we started I was no longer nervous and she talked me through the entire process. She made sure I was comfortable from start to finish. I’d recommend her and Empire Tattoo to anyone who asks. Super excited to get some more work done here soon!

I went in for a Blue Jay in honor of my cousin who I just lost. I also asked for a cover up and extension of my current tattoo. Houston was phenomenal. He exceeded my expectations and I’m completely in love with his work.The entire staff is warm and funny, I was laughing the whole time and felt at home. I can’t say enough good things about everyone there. Autumn was incredibly sweet and down to earth! Adam is a perfect mix of funny and professional. Adams wife (who I only heard called Mama so not sure of her name) was so funny warm and real. Houston was just so nice to me, funny, an incredibly talented artist. The best part is he actually listened to me and gave me everything I asked for and so much more! The price was also beyond reasonable! I can not wait to go back. If you need a tattoo this is the spot! I’ll be back!!! Thank you so much Houston! And everyone at Empire!!!!

Review №43

Super nice and friendly people. The shop is nice and light and airy. Family run and they will make you feel like family. While I was getting my tattoo done the owner and his wife went around separately to check on the artists to see if they needed anything and to compliment their work and also chit chatted with my friend and me for a bit. It was so nice. The little conversations can make people feel so welcome and invited. I cant say enough good things about this place. We have a small family business here in Upstate NY (Stump City Brewing (shameless plug LOL)..Come see us!) and Im so happy I was able to support another family owned small business. If Im ever down visiting again and looking to get a tattoo Ill def be going here again. All the luck to the new-ish artist my friend and I had (owners sister) she was super nice and professional and we are very pleased with our new tattoos.

I started using Adam for my tattoos in 2016 after a friend told me about him. I have watched Adams business really grow over the years and he is still just as humble as he was the first day I met him. Not only will you walk away with a great piece of art work on your body, but you walk away feeling like you are part of the family.

Adam is a great artist! Hands down one of the best I’ve seen! It was hard finding a black and grey realism person around here. He did a cover up for me and it’s more amazing than I could have asked for! Also Hali is amazing! Super friendly and so organized! This is definitely the tattoo shop to go to!!

Janessa was AMAZING! I went in to get both my nostrils pierced (well, one repierced since it had closed recently & the other side pierced) and she was fantastic! It was quick also. She sanitized everything in front of me including her hands which was a huge bonus & she ensured my piercings aligned! Overall, great experience! I’ll be back!

Review №51

I’ve had multiple tattoos done here and will continue to stay here for future tattoos! What started as a spontaneous thigh tattoo turned into 5 sessions later that ended up covering from my thigh to my ribs! I’m OBSESSED! When you have a session at empire, you feel like family when you leave. They are full of real and genuine artists/piercers! I highly recommend this business if you are looking for a tattoo artist and/or piercer!

Loved the shop and the people in it! I had a beautiful butterfly done and cannot wait to finish it. While its been healing there was a spot I was worried about. I messaged them about it and they got back with me within a few minutes to answer any questions I had about the healing process. Definitely will be going to them again.

I’ve been going back and forth about getting my nose pierced. Well I had a little time to kill so I decided to just go for it. Janessa Did my piercing. I was worried about the pain. Well Janessa explained everything she was going to do. I felt very comfortable with her. I like the fact she was very friendly and carried on a conversation not just about the piecing. Anyone looking to have a nose piercing I would definitely go to her.

This was my first time visiting this shop. Since Im fairly new to the area I read the reviews for a couple of other shops. The previous reviews from many satisfied customers got my attention and sealed my decision to come to Empire Tattoo. I immediately felt comfortable, everything was very clean, and Adam was very gentle while he was doing my piece. I plan on coming back. This was my eleventh tattoo and I can honestly say that it was probably the best experience Ive had so far. Thank you for putting your personal touches on my semicolon Adam, its beautiful!

Adam is a truly wonderful artist! He has done amazing tattoos for me and is great with cover ups. The atmosphere is so friendly and makes you very comfortable. He is very easy going and light handed he is already working on my 3rd tattoo and he will be my only tattoo artist from now on!

Review №61

Adam is an awesome dude. He interacts with you and try’s to get to know his clients. By far the best tattoo artist I have ever been to. To some he may be a little on the pricy side but to me he is priced really well. He also has another guy that’s really good as well. So if Adam is busy and the other dude is free don’t hesitate for him to give you some new ink as well. He is booked out until December 2020 if that tells you anything.

Review №62

Honestly, the very best shop if you are looking to get a tattoo. Adam, Hali, and their team make you feel comfortable and listen to your wants. The atmosphere is amazing and you just feel overall accepted no matter what. Adam explains the tattoo before he starts- but his free hand is my favorite! He is just amazingly talented period and uses your body to make the tattoo instead of just putting a tattoo on you. I love his passion to have true artistry and his willingness to just be authentic. I’m excited to finish my tattoo after these babies get here and to start my collaboration tattoo with all of the artists in his shop.

Review №64

I have nothing but genuinely kind and wonderful things to say about this business and the family that runs it.Adam, the artist who owns and operates the shop, is an incredibly talented and open minded professional who makes each and every one of his customers feel welcome and at home as soon as they enter through the door. During my time in GA I got around 10 tattoos, and I havent regretted choosing Adams shop once. I love my tattoos, and I love the bond that was formed over the many many visits between him, his family, and myself.This shop brings only the greatest memories and my only regret is not supporting them more while I was there. I highly, fully, and wholeheartedly recommend this shop to anyone in the area who is looking to have work done.- Chris

Adam did my first tattoo and made me feel super comfortable. I was kinda nervous, but him and his wife are so chill that they made the experience super comfortable. I got a Harry Potter tattoo. A Phoenix outstretching it’s wings from a deathly hallows. Great price. Just went back today because I finally had the time. Joe (Adam’s apprentice) did mine and my best friends today. Was super chill, did a good job and I’m really pleased with the store as well as the quality of the tattoos.

Adam Herrera at Empire Tattoo is hands down the best artist I’ve ever encountered! Not only is his talent rare and distinguished, he is the most professional and friendly person I’ve ever met! Him and his wife, Hali, made me feel immediately comfortable and my whole time there was so enjoyable! They will be so successful in the way they are running their business and the new artists they are welcoming into their studio! I have found a forever gem in this small town ~Jolene

I went into this wonderful shop just to get a quote on a Tattoo that my husband & I had been wanting to get for a while. I was greeted by Hali, Adam & Joe as soon as I walked in the door. Right at that moment Joe sketched the tattoo within a couple of minutes & My husband & I left the shop with the Tattoos we had wanted a quote for. A couple days Later I went back for another Tattoo. And about a week later I got another piece. All in a month I got 3 tattoos from this shop, because of their wonderful customer service and I was extremely pleased with the outcomes of the work that Joe did for me. Now here it is January & I will be getting a bigger piece for my Birthday. I highly recommend this shop.Thank you again Guys 😊

Went to Janessa with a friend to get our noses pierced. I have 12 other piercings but was still nervous! Janessa recognized this and was extremely reassuring. It was quick, painless, and looked perfect! She is extremely skilled and knows what shes doing. The place was clean and they took extra precautions to make sure everything was extra sterilized. A week later and my nose was healing perfectly. The atmosphere in the shop was light and fun. 10/10 would recommend! Thank you!!

Adam is an awesome artist and takes the time to make sure he does the best work possible for you.

This place is awesome. Its not a super well known place, I found it by Googleing and I saw the sign when I passed by. Ive only seen Adam but he is amazing. Very skilled at what he does. His FB page has lots of pictures that prove it. Im so happy with my piece and he did a wonderful job putting all of the things I wanted together. Everyone was very nice. Theyre in it to give you the best quality so theyll make sure to put you with the artist that will give the best work. We will be back for more because I really want all my work done here before we leave the area!

I’ve heard nothing but great things about Adam and Empire. When I was visiting Camden, my family and I went to get Friday the 13th tattoos from Empire due to their reputation. We were not disappointed. My MIL came on break at work and they were able to get her in and out so quickly with amazing quality. I was unsure of what I wanted, so Adam and his staff helped me generate ideas based off my interests and other tattoos. I received the perfect one from Rose! I highly recommend booking an appointment here. I will be back.

Got my daughters foot prints on me as my second tattoo and it didnt hurt as much as my first. Considering I hate needles. I plan on going again to get another tattoo soon. The environment is very comfortable. Very family friendly. My husband was able to hold my daughter in the shop while I got my tattoo. I absolutely loved it!!! The owner and his wife are very cool people. I definitely didnt feel like I was getting the cold shoulder like most shops and Adam helped come up with the idea of my tattoo since Im not creative whats so ever. I have been recommending him to anyone down here that I know

Empire tattoo is by far my favorite shop. Adam is my favorite artist I have ever been to. Family owned and operated. No disrespect like some shops.

Adam is an amazing artist. He created a beautiful sleeve for my wife and an awesome nautical theme on my calf. Between his and Hali’s amazing personalities, and out of this world artistic expression, I won’t go to anyone else.

My daughter got her first tattoo by Adam this week and she could not be any happier. She was so nervous and Adam talked her through it and made her feel like family. She already wants another one!! It’s beautiful and we can’t wait to have the next one done. Thank you Adam!!!

My daughter and I came here for my first tattoo and her sixth or ?. I am a bit around the bend so no viable apprehensions ! I enjoyed the experience as much as bonding with my beautiful daughter !Whether its your first or the next one, I recommend these talented folks for tattoos done well.

I first came across this shop through a friend, who highly recommended this to me. So I came in, gotten a few tattoos from Adam, and was very pleased. Ive been to a few shops in kingsland, out of all of them only 1 was rude. The staff here, made me feel welcomed, listened to my wants and needs, who where Ive given him free range to do the type of ink that suited me. My last tattoo was lil over 3 years, time to get a few more. Plz, definitely check out Empire Tattoo in Kingsland, Ga

By far one of the best atmospheres I’ve experienced at a shop, super chill & relaxed, hella laughter & fun. I’m OBSESSED with how well Adam did the line work in my tattoo & how caring he was with it because it covers scars. Definitely going to be a regular.

Everyone at Empire is incredible! However, I was referred to Houston. He created a cover-up that did everything I was hoping for. I go back in 3 weeks to get it completed, Ill upload pics once its a finished piece. But service, and prices are on point and affordable.

Very personal not the average tattoo artist Adam is easy to talk to and a great guy. He is appreciative of the fact you came to him for a tattoo, and doesnt have the you owe him something for him giving you a tattoo. He has a light hand when tattooing and heals fast. He did a great job with a coverup, and I look forward to getting more work done from him. The shop is also family oriented.

I first met Adam from Empire Tattoo in 2016. He was kind enough to do free temporary tattoos for all survivors at Camden County GA Relay For Life. His work that evening was amazing so of course I made an appointment for a permanent tattoo. I super love my “Graycie Mae” memorial tat!

Best tattoo artist around. My tattoos heal very fast. Don’t lose color. Lines are perfect. Listens to what you want but also advises if they think it would be better another way. If they had 10 stars they would definitely get 10 ! Can’t wait til I get another !

Never been in a tattoo parlor before today. I had to get some new daith piercings put in, as I had to remove my others for an m.r.i. Janessa was such a doll to work with. She is kind, knowledgeable and compassionate.The parlor is clean and kid friendly; as the owners had their adorable little man there. If I ever get something done, Empire will be the place and Janessa will be my person.
