Eli was absolutely amazing! He took his time explaining everything and made my first tattoo experience so incredibly easy and comfortable. Highly recommend him - you cannot ask for a better artist!

Awesome place. I’ve gotten tattoos from Eli twice and it’s been a positive experience both times. I’ve even recommended friends and family to him. They all have loved his work.

I had my first tattoo done here & I am beyond thrilled with the result. The establishment was so clean & organized, & to make it even better, Eli was so so kind & made me feel comfortable & confident with my first ever tattoo. Thankful for this experience!!

Came in to see Eli for the first time and am very satisfied with my experience!! He touched up as well as covered up parts of an old tattoo of mine and I am super pleased with the result. Will be coming back to him soon for more tattoos! 😊

I love the outcome of my tattoo and Eli did a great job helping me get exactly what I wanted and helping me feel more relaxed while getting my first tattoo.

Great place for a tattoo! I got my first tattoo from Eli Scott, it was an overall positive and easy experience.

Went to Downers Grove tattoo for my first tattoo and recently for my second. This place is top notch for tattoo quality and customer service! I had Eli for both of my tattoos, and he is the best! Very helpful/informative with the whole process and for any questions you may have. It’s fun and interesting to talk to Eli during the tattooing. His designs are so detailed and look incredible. The place is very sanitary also, which was great to see. Don’t go anywhere else if you’re looking for a tattoo.

I’m new to town and felt like getting new ink. I just had a 4 hour session with Eli and he was awesome! Will definitely come back and recommend more people to come get tatted by him. Thank you Eli!

Amazing shop, and amazing artists! Eli has done all my tattoos and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! He is always efficient and his work is phenomenal. He always shows how much he cares about the work you’re getting done, and always delivers.

I saw Eli a few days ago for a few different piercings. Right off the bat he was nothing but genuinely nice, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. He made my experience comfortable and as painless as possible. I also loved the measures they took to make the shop covid friendly.Ive been to numerous piercing/tattoo shops, but this one was by far my most positive experience yet! Will be back in the near future!

Was rescheduled several times and was not made aware that I had to come alone. Also, was not provided a pic or drawing of what I was going to have done after asking. Disappointed and will continue to shop around. I did ask to donate my deposit to someone who can’t afford one.

I wanted to give Jessica the amazing review she deserves! I went in Saturday, February 6th to get a portrait tattoo done of my puppy who has past. I gave her the picture and ideas that I wanted. She went into amazing detail. Color came out amazing. Tattoo is healing great! Her work is just absolutely amazing. She was fast, professional and very clean. You can tell she loves what she does by the effort she puts in. Very happy with how my tattoo turned out. & again, thank so much Jessica! Will most definitely go back to her for any future tattoos.

Got some great ink from Eli today! 😁 Was nervous about trying out a new place but Im glad I did. Definitely recommend. Definitely going back for more.

The artists here do a fantastic job. I will definitely go back here for my next tattoo.

I got a tattoo on my left forearm from Eli Scott. He was quick with a high quality final product. When I arrived for the appointment, the design was already completed. Very happy with my overall experience.

A bit brusque on the customer service aspect, once my son and I were in for the actual tattoos, Jessica did a great job. Not sure what the secret is, but neither my son nor I had any issues with our tattoos: no itching, no peeling, no problems. Highly recommended.

I got my first tattoo here with Jessica. I absolutely LOVED it. I texted her beforehand to schedule and appointment and discuss prices. When I got to the shop, she already had my design prepared exactly the way I wanted. The price is reasonable, and you pay beforehand—my price was determined by design and not hours. (and i love that they don’t hold a deposit unlike the other tattoo places). It only took about 10 min for her to set up everything and the tattoo process wasn’t bad at all! My tattoo took about an hour for a 3in design, and it came out nicely! She got it bandaged with a saniderm, which i really love. Would definitely come back to Jessica for more tattoos!

Eli did a rat holding a flower tattoo on me. It turned out amazing!! He was so sweet and listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions

I came in yesterday for a piercing from Eli Scott and it was an overall great experience. He was super friendly and made sure I was comfortable with everything and answered all my questions, which I had a lot of. Eli made sure that my markings were aligned right and did not rush through as he let me make sure I liked the placement. He fully explained the after care process and what products I should use and gave me a few things to make sure I could keep my piercings clean so they could heal properly.

Love my new piece. Had a good time while getting it. Jessica hooked me up.

Eli is the best! Very professional, knowledgeable and informative not to mention hes super nice, friendly and incredibly easy to spill your tea too! My tattoo and piercings flew by! Been many years since I went to DG tattoo and Im super glad I went back!!Edit: I was back within a week for a 2nd tattoo by eli and a 3rd is in the works!Edit! I got a 3rd one done by him this past week!! Hes extremely talented!

What an amazing artist Eli was and is. From beginning to end, not one minor grievance. On short notice, came up with a custom piece for my back. Amazingly fast work and great conversation while giving me the tattoo. Cannot wait to go back for more and more. Highly recommend. Not enough stars or kind words can do it justice.

I got my first earring yesterday. Jessica was great. She was very careful and quick. Great place!

My wife recently got a tattoo from this place. The tattoo came out fine. She paid Eli and left without thinking much about it. It was a small tattoo and it only took the artist 15 minutes to complete. After showing the tattoo to some of her friends, she realized that she was extremely overcharged for this work. If anyone is thinking about getting a tattoo from Downers Grove tattoo CO, just be aware that you will be price gouged.

Went in for a tattoo on my right bicep. I have one on my left bicep already. Eli did my tat. It turned out better than I even expected! Hes very talented. Eli gave me Tatu-Derm to put on the tat after he was done and it healed up so fast. My other tattoo took 2 weeks to fully heal and this one healed totally in 4 days! Overall awesome experience. Ill definitely be going back there for my next tats!

Eli has always done an amazing job with my ink. His designs are immaculate and his work is so precise. He makes me feel very comfortable during our sessions, and we always have great conversation! Highly recommend if you’re looking for some new art.

Its good place but the price its so high, if you councdr its on sales tawon

Eli did a great job. First tattoos and they are amazing love them so much. Quick and efficient!!

I had Jess! She did my earrings! I had past problems with my ears and she took really good care of them and told me exactly how to clean them! She was super nice and was patient with me! I totally recommend her!

I came across Downers Grove Tattoo online after having a not so positive experience with a different tattoo parlor. I phoned and was given a time to come in that same day. Eli was my tattoo artist and I was super pleased with his work. He was gentle, explained everything in detail and was a pleasure to converse with during the tattoo process. He is quite talented and knowledgable. He worked with me to make sure I got the tattoo I wanted and gave great aftercare instructions. I highly recommend getting your tattoo done by Eli.

I went to the shop because I thought I had a infection in one of my piercings. The piercer, Eli S., was very professional and super nice. He offered great advice about how to help with my piercing, and I really appreciated it! Super great and clean environment.

Shout out to Eli!!! What a great establishment and great artist! I’m so happy with the outcome of my tattoo and the great customer service! Eli thank you so much for my awesome dove. I appreciate it so much!!!!!

Eli is awesome. I went in with an idea for a tattoo and he seemed to know exactly what I wanted. He even made some suggestions that were absolutely perfect. Friendly, courteous, professional and most importantly clean. I trusted him with a tattoo that holds a lot of meaning to me and he did not let me down, in fact he surpassed what I had pictured in my mind. He is a great artist and has a great eye. Some have commented that the prices are high. This is my first tattoo in over a decade, so I dont know much about what the market dictates. But even if his price is a little higher than most, Ill gladly pay it to ensure a job well done since it will be on my body for the rest of my life. Thanks again, Eli!

Went here for my first tattoo and was pretty nervous about it. Eli was awesome and super helpful through the whole process. I was probably pretty annoying with all my questions but he was very patient with me. Highly recommend him as an artist and this place!

Jessica Bone is great with kids’ earlobe piercings. She has a nice assortment of titanium posts so your daughter isn’t stuck with something blah during the healing. Very easy. She’s very knowledgeable and helpful. Two separate, favorable experiences.

Ive gotten a few tattoos from there and Eli Scott does a great job. He is super friendly and makes you feel welcome but also has very good skills and does a great job to the very detail of his tattoos. He makes the experience even better by how friendly he is and has you leaving with Great ink. I cant imagine having someone else do my tattoos now besides him. Even the most difficult tattoos and locations he has done phenomenal on. I definitely recommend this tattoo shop and ask for Eli Scott he is the best!!!!!

Hell yeah ! Eli is the man !! Im so happy and proud of my new tattoo. Super relaxed and chill, he explains everything in a understanding way. Ill highly recommend him to everyone that wants a tattoo.Thanks man !

Good family place.

Eli did some piercings for me. I called before hand with various questions and he was so patient with me and very informative. When I got there he told me what to expect during the process and educated me on all the after care steps. I would recommend him to anyone. He will make you feel comfortable with the whole experience.

Called in and asked for an email address to send pictures for a quote. I was informed that Id have to come into the shop (40 mins away) to book another future appointment in order to get a quote. After the second visit, Id come in a third time for my first sitting.I stated that I wanted three pieces done and didnt want to discuss them in small format (ie. cellphone).A friend recommended this shop, but it doesnt make sense that I wouldnt be able to sit until my third visit.The artist I spoke to was Jen Bone. I also asked for Eli Scott but was told that had to reached out to him through Instagram, which I dont have.

Jessica handled my daughters piercing very professionally, thanks.

Eli was amazing! great artist, so comfortable, easy to talk and just a blast while doing my tattoo. He was very professional just all around great experience honestly.

Jessica did a great job on my tattoo and was so patient with all my questions, thank you so much!!

I went here last month to get my nose pierced. Eli Scott did my piercing. First of all, I need to say that beyond the professionalism, obvious expertise, courteousness, and patience he displayed (this was my first piercing in over 30 years), he did an amazing job! He explained everything to me thoroughly beforehand, helped me understand the process, and overall made it a great experience. He was clear about after care, gave me paperwork that reiterated everything, and made himself available to answer questions anytime after (I needed that, since I managed to accidentally pull out my piercing only days later - long story, lol). Hes a gem, and an amazing artist! I wouldnt go to anyone else for piercings or tattoos!

Great people !

Eli does amazing work and runs a first class shop. I will be back many more times

Eli is the man. Gave me a sick tattoo and couldn’t be happier. I will definitely be dropping by again soon. He runs a great business and is very talented.

I just got my belly button Peirced by Eli and he does so well he walked me through everything and told me what was happening. It was a really good experience. I have no complaints!

Ive had 4 tattoos done here and the experience was great, the tattoos healed really well and had perfect saturation even still to this day...5+ years later. Everyone was very patient with me. Fair prices. The only thing I wish they did is finger tattoos. Always my 1st choice!!!

Eli did a clean, well measured job on a friends lobes and my navel. A very professional and skilled piercer.If you get your piercing done at Downers Grove Tattoo, speak to Eli. Jessica is sloppy and measures poorly but Eli does good work!The business takes reviews and customer satisfaction seriously.

I’ve gotten two tattoos done by Eli and though his work is good he overcharged me tremendously. I paid $250 each for two tattoos that should have been no more than $100 each considering the size and time. Great work but mindful he rips you off nicely.

Always happy after leaving here! Jessica Bone has done 3 of my tattoos and 1 on my wife. Her watercolor skills are beyond exceptional!!!

Eli just did an amazing cover up for me. He took the time to do 2 ideas for me and the designs were awesome. Such great detail as well as shading and colors. The tattoo looks fantastic and he takes the time to make sure every detail is perfect!!!!!! This is the 2nd done by him for me and I will continue to go back to him for all my other future tattoos!!!!

ELI IS AWESOME!but for the record, its a great quality

If I could give it no stars I would. Im not going into detail and I didnt get the dudes name ( I say dude because men dont act like he did) but myself, my daughter, and a friend was treated with the utmost disrespect Ive ever experienced in a supposedly professional business. And the only thing I could chalk it up to is the dude was racist. Dude, my skin might be brown but my money is just as green. After we were very rudely dismissed unnecessarily by this dude we went right up the street and got the most professional and courteous service ever. I wouldnt recommend this place to a dog.

Jessica is fantastic!!!! Highly recommend!

John did an absolutely fantastic job on my tattoo. It was my first tattoo, and he did a great job of making me feel really comfortable about what I was committing to, and he let my mom and best friend be in the room while he worked on me. I got this tattoo two weeks after I turned eighteen, and I had the word Love tattooed in my dads handwriting as a tribute to him. It looks EXACTLY like his handwriting, I am so grateful for it. The down payment is a little higher than most places, but well worth it. It says on here that John is rude but I found him quite pleasant. And Im an eighteen year old girl, so you have to be pretty annoying to have him be rude to you. Great work, Im very happy.

Extremely disappointed with the results of my tattoo! Johnny performed the work on both myself and my wife. We had a tribute tattoo done that was supposed to match. During our first visit, Johnny was very optimistic about the artwork to be done, however, after all was said and done his demeanor changed. He was full of excuses and continually talked down to us. My wife and myself paid $400 for our two tattoos and have since learned we could have had better work done for nearly half this amount. Of the portraits done on both my wife and myself, her tattoo was missing an eyebrow and my matching tattoo was missing a portion of the eye wear. We have now decided to have Johnnys work covered up and the original artwork re-done by someone else. If you are looking for an old-school tat with a simple design, perhaps Downers Grove Tattoo Co. might work for you. Make sure you inspect your tattoo carefully for missing content before you leave though. Johnny seems to overlook a lot, except for his payment.

Eli was awesome and very professional. Great Experience will be coming back.

Eli did an amazing job for the first tattoo and he is a great person to talk to

I came in town just to visit my mother and did expect to get a new tattoo but my wife and I decided we should. The service was amazing very professional and clean. Couldnt of asked for a better shop. I have over 30 tattoos and I can honestly say that I will be coming back here for more

First tattoo I ever got. Was easy and reasonable price. GOT a cute pink flamingo and palm tree. Want to get tigger and pooh or rigger and a sunflower. The first tattoo was my 60th birthday present.

This place is a complete dump. If you care about professionalism and cleanliness then avoid this place at all cost. I cant speak for the other employees who work here but Jessica Bone is a complete idiot. I brought my 15 year old daughter here for a second piercing and the results were disasterous. The holes Jessica made were completely uneven. When I suggested that she use a ruler to confirm that the holes would be placed perfectly she looked at me with the dumbest look on her face like she never heard of a ruler. Which is probably the case given the results of her work. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this place. Its run down and totally not worth the money you are going to spend here. Seek a better more professional establishment.

I am amazed with Jessicas work, and the professionalism shown by the staff at Downers Grove Tattoo. I will never go anywhere else for my tattoos. Hands down the best tattoo experience! beyond pleased!

Eli is a great guy and great artist. Had nice experience here! Highly recommended place.

Eli did a great job. It was a great expirience and my tattoo looks great! Thanks again!

Jess did a great job with my watercolor tattoo. Everything was very neat, clean and professional. Definitely would choose them again.

Great place. Got my first tattoo here from Jessica and she did an amazing job. Deffinetly my go to place for future tattoos

Jessica Bone is beyond amazing this shop is lucky to have her. I have been blessed to have her do most of the ink on my body. Since I have found her I refuse to go anywhere else

Had a nose piercing done a few weeks ago. I love it! Very professional. I would recommend them.

Jessica was great changing some of my piercings for me....very gentle and courteous....i highly recommend downers grove tattoo! Thank you!

Jessica is the best artist ever. Very professional, talented, helpful. And so so much more.

So, I am a clean/ neat freak and this place defiantly is one of the nicest shops I have been in. Jimmy was my guy when I got an industrial piercing, very much impressed! It happened so fast and it wasnt even painful (I know everyones pain is different) but I was prepared to feel something haha. Super nice guys, highly recommend!!!

Jessica is the best!! Has done a lot of work for me and everything always looks amazing!!! The place is clean and professional. Will definitely be going back again!!

If I can give zero stars, I would. I called in ahead of time to check the availability and on the phone he was okay, got to the shop within ten minutes, walked in and right away he was rude. Saying that he had someone coming in and it will take him all night, he had no customers so I wanted to Google another place or book an appointment with him....he says, we need to leave because he doesnt want to baby sit us, very rude and will never go back.

Clean, safe experienced staff

Eli was fantastic, offered lots of great suggestions for my first tattoo. I will be coming back for more

Eli Scott is very talented and extremely professional. Highly recommend.

Eli did a great job on my owl, brought ideas to the table to give me a tattoo that is perfect for me.

Said what I wanted and went to work to draw it up

Got my first tattoo done here, Jessica did an amazing job!

Eli Scott was super cool and helpful for my first tattooI would definetly go again

Was my first time getting a tattoo, and I loved my experience! Love my tattoo to pieces.

Jessy does the best tattoos ever! Cant wait to get my next one!

Eli did a great job I was super freaked out about getting my nose pierced and it was quick fast and painless

Got my industrial and the chick put it in really weirdly and the bar is so tight against my ear where the bar touching my ear my ear is gone there is like a melted in impression of the bar I was wondering why two weeks later my ear is still throbbing

Great experience, beautiful art work, I came into shop just from googling it and they knew actually what I had wanted

Where to start ive had botth eli and Jessica do work i had 2 tattoos from both of them and Jessica knocked out the first one and the 2nd one i felt like she dropped the ball and did not try so hard and as far as eli he knocked both of my peaces out of the water the experience i had with both of the artists where night and day eli took exta care to walk me through every detail on what was going happen as far as free hand shadeing or details he made my experience amazing and definitely going to have him do more work

My go to tat place. Super awesome.

Rude and arrogant! Would recommend never going there.......EverSmall man syndrome to the 10th power

Great staff with amazing skill! And they do piercings now!

Thanks ray, thanks john and every one else that I know lurks here ..... the inks holden open And I hope to get to the new shop in cali to finish this bull up

Extremely rude service. Was talked down to and treated as if customers come second best.

Eli is very talented and fun to work with.

Great artist, great convo, great tattoo

Great work, clean and friendly staff!

Beautiful tattoo done here

Great tattoo artist

Awesome work

Eli Scott was my tattoo artist and I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience! He exceeded my expectations and was kind through the process! 10/10!
