When looking for a great place to get a tattoo or a piercing....I would have to say Tattoo Mafia is the best place to meet your needs. They have two amazing, phenomenal tattoo artists, Lisa and Chris, one incredible piercer/office assistant, Codi and two great friendly apprentices, Emily and Steve. From the first time I was tattooed by Lisa at Tattoo Mafia three years ago until my most recent appointment this year (2016), I have been treated with the utmost respect and was always made to feel comfortable. The tattoo shop is the cleanest shop Ive ever been in (which I have been in several in Delaware). From the moment you walk in you are greeted by one of the most amazing people that I have ever met. Codi has always been appropriate and professional. I have set many appointments with Codi and she has always made me feel comfortable. Having had the opportunity to sit for several full day tattoo sessions with Lisa, I have also been able to observe Codi interacting with many clients and potential clients which she has always been completely professional. I was reading through the Google reviews for Tattoo Mafia and one recent review has disheartened me. I feel the need to address this individual because I believe that you should never put slanderous and inaccurate information out for the public to read. The bell Bells review is most likely fake. I also believe that this individual has never set foot in the Tattoo Mafia shop because their description of the shop is inaccurate and the inappropriate and benighted comments made toward Codi where inhuman. Please when reading the Google reviews, please take note that all but one review shows an adequate depiction of the staff and tattoo shop.

I cannot say enough good things about Tattoo Mafia, Chis, Lisa, Codi, and their apprentice. As soon as you walk into the shop it is clean and smells similar to a hospital which I very much appreciate given the type of business. Work space is open so you do not feel cramped or all up in someone elses tattoo, the tables where individuals are placed to get their tattoos are sanitized and have protectant paper for you to lay so you feel clean. Chris is very light handed and the tattoo guns are of the newest technology so the tattoo itself did not hurt at all and my tattoo was on the ribcage and side. I gave Chris drawings of ideas that I wanted put together into one tattoo and he as true artists due, took the pictures and drew up my tattoo with all elements in which I requested. Chris sent me the picture to look at prior to my appointment so that I could make tweets if I needed or wanted to. While tattooing Chris was very honed into the tattoo and details, making sure everything was perfect. He only took breaks when I requested them as he is very conscious of peoples time and their money; he is not out to prolong a tattoo to make more. I will always go to Tattoo Mafia for my tattoos and this is where I will refer all of my family and friends. Cant wait to see you soon with my daughter and niece. And of course I have always loved Codi. I have never had a piercing by her but she is known to be the best around and with her personality you cannot help but love her.

I absolutely love Tattoo Mafia, the atmosphere, the people, the shop. The people are super friendly in there and make you feel like family. All of the artists are amazing, and I love all of their work. The shop is so clean and well kept which is super important for shops. And Codi!! I absolutely love her, in all my years of being pierced i have never found a piercer that i truly like and appreciate until now. Codi is an amazing person and you can tell that she really loves her job. She talks you through the process of the piercing, gives you all the information that you need to take care of your piercings. And always has a wide variety of jewelry on hand, and she really cares about her clients. And the migraine piercing is such an amazing thing, i got my piercing almost 6 months ago and have had only 1 migraine in those 6 months (: Its amazing. She is always wanting to learn new things and help out all her clients. And I love that! I ALWAYS recommend her to everyone when it comes to piercings. I would not send them anywhere else. Tattoo Mafia is the place to be. Worth every penny! <3

A week ago was my first time going to Tattoo Mafia. Ill first start off by talking about the shop. WOW. Talk about a nice, clean and professional shop. I felt absolutely no worries going into the shop. Which is a pretty big deal for me and most people. So clean and organized. It was a breath of fresh air to walk into this shop compared to most in the Dover area. The staff was friendly and awesome. I went in for a specific piercing, so I didnt talk to everyone, but they all greeted me when I walked in. I came to this shop to get pierced by Codi. ANYONE who needs a piercing, Codi is the girl to go to. SUPER friendly and professional. She not only has exceptional customer service, but she is incredibly knowledgeable about what she is doing. My piercings came out SO MUCH better than I had ever expected. The whole process was enjoyable. I wouldnt have wanted it any other way. No lie.. I had no other option than to rate my experience with Codi and the shop with a full 5 stars. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommended!

I went to Tattoo mafia to get my first tattoo done. They were able to get me in quickly and the price was better than several places that I had been too. I was very satisfied with the service I got. They were extremely clean and careful about how they worked. I was extremely thrilled with my tattoo. I had waited 12 years to get my first because I was worried about it not looking good, but it was better than I expected. When I was done I decided to get my nose pierced. Codi took great care of me. She sat me down and walked through the whole process of what she was going to do. Her work area is extremely clean and sanitary. All her instruments were sterilized and new in the package. The Septum is the most painful piercing I have had and it wasnt that bad. It was fairly quick. When she as done it looked great. It was through straight and I had have no issues with it afterwards. I have been back for two additional piercings and plan on several more along with more tattoos.

I went to Will to get a tattoo at the Philly Tattoo Convention yesterday and everyone from this shop was amazing. They were all extremely welcoming and friendly. They were so helpful and I loved chatting to them. My tattoo artist Will was a great guy and he kept checking in on how I was doing while he was tattooing me. It was very reassuring that he genuinely cared and wanted to know if I was ok. Every step of the process was great. Will is really good at what he does and I love my new tattoo. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get a piercing or tattoo. Everyone I dealt with was lovely and down to earth. Will was also extremely efficient in making sure everything was of the utmost hygienic standard. Will cut no corners whatsoever in hygiene despite being on a tight schedule at the convention. His level of professionalism was above and beyond. And his artwork is beautiful. Thanks again Will! :)
