Stunning shop, professional and clean. Brenden H has done 90% of my tattoos and they’ve all come out beautiful! He’s the most talented artist I know. 10/10 would recommend.

My wife and I both got our 20 yr anniversary tattoos done here by Cam. Not only was he amazing but every artist in the shop is beyond legit. The work they do is amazing and you can’t beat the pricing.

What do reviews say about the shop itself?

The building at 2735 E Main St gets its own mentions. Cleanliness shows up in 11 of the 83 reviews we exported on September 29, 2026 without anyone asking, and a few clients spent more of their review on the room and the food than on the tattoo.

If you want to see the room they are describing, have a look at our tattoo studio in Mesa.

The average is not a perfect five

A couple of the reviews are not five stars; they are public, so read them too. We answer our reviews rather than letting them sit.

Quotes on this page stay exactly as written, typos included.

How to actually use these reviews

Skip the star totals and read the ones that name an artist. A review that says AG did my full sleeve tells you who to ask for and what kind of piece that artist handled. Match the reviewer's project to yours, then request that artist at your free consult.

Dates matter too. Recent reviews reflect the current crew at 2735 E Main St, just past Lindsay Rd. The quotes on this page all come from our current run in Mesa, and the newest ones sit at the top of the Google listing.

What clients say about Tagz Tattoo in Mesa

4.9★ average from 88 Google reviews

Just had my upper arm done with AG at TAGZ!!! It was an incredible experience. AG is an incredible artist, and was absolutely amazing. I am so happy with my piece. The shop is clean, and well layed out. TAGZ has thought of everything. Amazing experience. I will never go anywhere else for my future work.
Sherrod MartinUpper arm piece by AGGoogle review
Couldn’t say enough good things about this shop. From the environment to the artist, this shop is great. My artist was Eddy and he gave me a tattoo I’ve been waiting to get cause I needed the right person and the right Shop to do it since this piece was very important to me. It came out perfect. Couldn’t ask for a better experience.
Issac BencomoGoogle review
This shop is top notch and full of amazing Artists and you will not be disappointed! ! Yesterday was my 3rd Session with Pricilla to finish my three quarter outdoor arm sleeve. This project a year and half ago and all I had was an idea in my mind and she put it to skin!
Matthew HarveyThree quarter outdoor arm sleeveGoogle review
Best tattoo shop in AZ ! The quality, style and art work is immaculate! I had the pleasure of meeting AG (owner) and his style of work is magnificent. All the artist in shop have their own style so if you looking for talent, go to TAGZ TATTOO. I also noticed AG has a barbershop on the opposite side of the building and the haircuts are very professional and stylish. I would say this tattoo/Barbershop is A1! I highly recommend getting a tattoo from AG or any of the artists in house. Be a part of the family and join AGs movements.

Finding the shop in Mesa, and what we work with

We are at 2735 E Main St, Suite 9, Mesa, AZ 85213, in Maricopa County. The suite sits on the East Main corridor a short block west of Lindsay Road, with Val Vista Drive about a mile further east. The door faces Main and parking is out front.

If you are not driving, the Valley Metro light rail runs the length of Main Street and ends at the Gilbert Road station, roughly a mile west of the door, so the last stretch is a short ride or walk east along Main.

  • Aftercare we actually stock. Mad Rabbit foam wash, glide, soothing gel and patches are sold at the front counter, so you can walk out with the same aftercare your artist tells you to use.
  • Shop Pay. The Get Tatted Now, Pay Later plans run on Shop Pay at checkout, which is why the payment split happens on the product page rather than through a separate lender in the shop.
  • Arizona age law. A.R.S. §13-3721 is the statute that governs tattooing anyone under eighteen in this state. We go further than the statute does: eighteen and over with a valid photo ID, no exceptions.
  • Valley Metro. Route and station times for the Main Street line are on the Valley Metro maps and schedules page at valleymetro.org if you are planning the trip in from Tempe or west Mesa.
