Amir was awesome to work with. Very laid back and flexible. Would definitely go to him again!
Amir was professional, fast, friendly and tattoo was on point
I was on a short vacation in PB and decided to get a tattoo, it was a little complicated and when I walked into Side Show tattoo, Amir was willing and as it turned out very able.. he did a great job… I was a walk in on a Sunday…. Thank you Amir
Love it!!! Got my first tattoo here from Sake and could not be happier with the results :)
Really fun spot! I like the vibe of the place and my tattoo artist was really nice :)
My experience with Kipper at Side Show Tattoo and piercing was top tier. I had a tattoo idea on a whim and walked in with no appointment and Kipper was happy to help. He was quick and efficient with the drawing and the results were excellent first try. The next challenge that Kipper very easily and happily over come…
Very nice people and fun experience!
Love my tattoo. Looks so good and detailed!! This photo is day three and it’s perfect.
Me and a friend came in as walk ins Sunday night and had kipper he was super nice and chill, our tattoos turned out great!
Matt has been my go-to artists for all of my tattoos. They have healed beautifully and the actual process of getting them was quick and easy. He’s also very easygoing!
I walked in for a tattoo, and Matt was able to take care of me within about 5 minutes! His work was fast and clean, and he was very helpful with placement, size and after care instructions. Highly recommend!
JEDI IS A TRUE SKILLFUL INDIVIDUAL.
Matt is epic in his artistic skills!!! I’ve used him several times now and will continue to do so. He is professional, clean, and sticks you with a piece you will be proud of! I recommend him to anyone and everyone!
Super professional, very reasonably priced. He listened to what we wanted and made it happen. Had a group of 4 girls each with a different small tattoo. Got us all taken care of and we were able to all watch each other. We all had fun time! Thank you!
Came in for a walk in appointment for a simple basic fine line wave tattoo that I have been excited to get while visiting California. Jedi was able to see me right away and was so kind and thorough with details and placement. He also took a lot of time to go over the healing process and after care instructions. I…
Very gentle handed and respectful and reassuring. Will be coming back :)
Jedi was so awesome I love my tattoo so much! It was done so quickly and professionally!!
Matt did my tattoo and the whole process was so smooth. Barely felt a thing and he was extremely nice and accommodating towards me and my friends. Will absolutely get another tattoo from him the next time I’m in San Diego!
I’ve gotten a bunch of tattoos from Jedi and they are always on point. I got a few tattoos of different animal skulls and some 90s tv show references and it’s never a question of if he's up for the challenge. I will definitely be a repeat customer. 🤘🏼

Sideshow is awesome. I didn’t have an appointment but walked in with two tattoo ideas in mind and not exactly sure how I wanted to execute them. Nick helped me immediately, drew up ideas played around with sizing and helped consult with me to figure out exactly what I wanted. Both tattoos turned out amazing and I…
Was my first tattoo he was very good about helping figure out the design that was in my head. His line work was very good very sharp and bold. Good conversation, his artwork very good.

Everyone was so friendly & supportive!
Matt was awesome! Quick and efficient with beautiful line art, a very personable, sweet guy, 5 stars!
I had a great experience at Sideshow. They took me as a walk in and I had originally asked for flash, because I didn’t know how much time they would have. The front desk said if I had something specific in mind, that it was better. I met Jedi and showed him some saved photos of the design I wanted. I described the…
Matt did a fantastic job! My friends and I were taken care of quickly and efficiently. Everyone was extremely friendly :)
Isaac Neece and David Rene were both awesome and if I could give them 10 stars I would!
I had my hand tattoo done by Nick and he did an amazing job. The piece came out super detailed and better than I expected. His attention to fine lines and shading really made the tattoo stand out. Not only is he talented, but he was also professional and made the whole experience comfortable. Highly recommend Nick if you’re looking for quality work!
Great place to get a tattoo!
Love my fine-line tattoo by David! He was professional and set up was clean. This picture is of the tattoo fresh with saniderm on top.
Nick was professional and delivered an excellent product. Would definitely reccomend him for fine line tattoos.
We were in San Diego on vacation and decided to get a spontaneous tattoo. Looked up the best tattoo shops and ended up at Sideshow. So glad we did. Damon was amazing, professional and his work was beautiful. I’d definitely come back to San Diego just for another tattoo!
Damon is absolutely an amazing artist! He did an incredible job on mine and my friend’s tattoos! We both love them to much! He was so funny and great to work with! It was a pleasure having him do my tattoo! He did this fine line shell on my arm and it turned out better than I could have imagined! :)

They made sure to show us everything was sanitized and clean. My mom and I got tattoos and it was probably the best experience i’ve had at a tattoo shop! David is extremely…
I got my tattoo done with Nick who was very patient with all the resketching we had to do to get the tattoo perfect. He was also beyond kind and calmed my nerves as it was my first tattoo. In the end the tattoo was exactly what I hoped for. Going back to him for more work, piercings or otherwise :)
Had a really good time getting my first tattoo. Process was quick and easy and my artist Matt was really dope
It was quick and easy and the artist was sweet! I’m not from San Diego but I know that was probably the best tattoo experience I’ve had.
It was my first tattoo and I’m obsessed with the thought of going back for another. I enjoyed the atmosphere it was super welcoming and My artist Matt was extremely welcoming I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for some good ink
I can’t say enough great things about this shop - it was clean, everybody was friendly and professional, and they got us in quickly as walk-ins. Jedi did my tattoo and it’s exactly what I wanted - I couldn’t be happier.
Jedi did my tattoo. It’s my first one so needless to say I was very nervous. He did an amazing job with making my dream a reality. Matthew did my sister’s tattoo and it was also her first one and we tell each other how much we are amazed by their job. Very clean and they give you their information so if you have any…
10/10 recommend. Decided to walk in & get a forward helix from Isaac & 3 little fine line tattoos from Matt. Both were very welcoming, friendly, & thorough.
I came in for a small tattoo and Matt did a great job of making my vision come to life! I even requested a small tweak after the first sketch and he nailed it. I am so happy with it. :)
Look no further. Beth has a steady hand and made this an amazing experience we won’t forget! We’ll be back next time we visit San Diego.
Jedi was an amazing artist and super friendly. Really enjoyed my experience and Side Show.

I was in SD for a mini vacation and my friend and I decided to get tattoos! This was my first tattoo ever and I have always wanted to get something to honor my brother that passed away. Bethany did such an amazing job. I was very nervous but she made me feel at ease. Came up with a beautiful design that I fell in…
I was a walk in at Sideshow on Easter Sunday and my friend and I were still accommodated swiftly and kindly. It was my first tattoo and they walked me through everything. Jedi was very attentive to my feedback on my design inspiration and preference for fine lines. The whole process in the chair took maybe 30min but…
I dad an excellent experience at Sideshow. I wanted something small that represents my favorite hobby. Jedi was the artist that performed my tattoo. Jedi was very professional and did an excellent job. I highly recommend Jedi and the team at Sideshow.
I got my first tattoo from Damon and he made it an excellent experience! He was professional and friendly and brought my tattoo to life!
Came in as a walk in and got my tattoo done by Nick and I couldn’t be happier! He was super nice, made me feel comfortable right away, and worked quickly without sacrificing quality. It came out clean and exactly how I pictured it. The shop itself was chill and professional—definitely recommend if you’re looking…
We just walked in and they took us right away. It took about 5-10 mins to do paperwork and for Nick to get the stencil ready and the tattoo itself was done very well and exactly the way I wanted it!
Isaac was very professional and made me feel comfortable when getting my nips pierced! highly recommend this place for tattoos and piercings!!
Matt did a great job on my palm tattoo! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an artist.
Nicks great with line work. I was a walk in and I brought a note my Dad sent me and wanted it copied in his handwriting to my forearm and Nick did it perfectly and quick too. I love it.
It was quick and simple. Very fast considering I was a walk in. Chance did some amazing work and I am very happy with the finished product.
Damon was great! He was funny and kept the mood light with stories the whole time. I also kept changing my mind on what I wanted and he happily fixed it and told me not to apologize. He gave me a great price too - I would highly recommend!!!
Great service and line work. Walked in and was super efficient. Art was amazing.
Walked in for tattoos and brought reference photos! They were very accommodating and drew up designs for us. Overall great experience and amazing artists!
I walked in and ask to get a tattoo, and they got me in super quickly! Mat was my tattoo artist and he was super accommodating and was able to do exactly what I wanted! Super happy with my tattoo and would definitely recommend!
I came in with a few friends as a walk-in to get a tattoo on vacation and Damon was super helpful and friendly when it came to figuring out exactly what I wanted. I would totally come back to this shop on my next visit and I highly recommend them!
My experience was positive. Every single individual was so professional and friendly. I felt so comfortable. 10/10 recommend!!! Isaac and Bethany are amazing. If you are trying to determine where to go; this is your sign to check out Sideshow.
Everyone we spoke to was so nice! My sister and I made a spontaneous decision to get new tats together (it’s become something of a tradition with us since we’re so far away from each other geographically) and to get my nose pierced! My tattoo is AMAZING it is a tribute to one of my three grandchildren! And it looks…
Super clean shop and great staff!! amazing service
They were very nice and prices were not bad definitely will go back for another tattoo and piercing!!
Matching tattoos with my step dad, such good vibes in the shop and beautiful art!
Cool guys, awesome vibes and atmosphere :)
We were walk ins from North Dakota hoping to get a tattoo. We were promptly greeted and booked and in and out within an hour. Jedi was a great listener and brought my vision to life with his talent and I am so happy with the service and price. Highly recommend Sideshow Tattoo and Piercing!
I had an amazing experience here. The tattoo artist Matt Manroe gave me a raccoon on a tree branch on the side of my stomach and ribs. The lines were extremely even and I am super happy with how it turned out. I would recommend this place and Matt to everyone
He did a great job and was so friendly!
Right to the point, knew exactly what he was doing, good vibes and felt comfortable with him. Also the work was perfect.
The staff are super friendly and waited only about an hour even without an appointment. Matt answered all my questions and the tattoo came out exactly like I had hoped. 5/5
Beth is a fantastic artist! I was a walk in with just a glimmer of a simple idea and she created something that I was so happy with! The shop has such a great vibe, super clean and spacious, too!
Damon was very friendly and took the time to understand and give feedback with the tattoo idea my best friend and I envisioned. He did great work, fine lines and detail.
Very friendly and made my first tattoo experience great
Amazing shop amazing artists!!😁😁
LOVE LOVE LOVE my new tattoo! Me and my daughter came in as walk ins and we were both SO happy with the experience. Matt gave me EXACTLY what I wanted. I couldn’t be happier.
Damon was great! He was very patient and helpful in the decision process of where to put my tattoo and the sizing as well. He worked very efficiently and was friendly the entire time! He made sure I was happy with the design before beginning and had me double check everything. I went in for a walk in appointment and had an overall great experience.
Went in as a group of 3 for matching line tattoos. We had a specific drawing that we wanted tattooed and they executed it perfectly. It took only about 2 hours for the three of us. The tattoo artists were very friendly and did awesome work. We were all very happy with our tattoos and I would definitely come back for another tattoo!
Matt was awesome! Everything was very clean and high quality. Would definitely recommend.
Beth was amazing and so professional!! She listened to all of my requests and the tattoo looks amazing, I barely felt anything. Will 100% be coming back to this place for both tattoos and piercings! Thank you Sideshow for an amazing first experience
love my tattoo came out so good and he did it in a good amount of time me and my bestie were out in no time very nice staff
I came in, and got seated quickly. My tattoo artist Chance did an excellent job. He was very thorough and very detailed oriented! Definitely will be going back.
Matt executed a design for flowers i had made elsewhere. Lines are well defined and black came out deep. Healed extremely quickly. Ill be back for more This is 1 week post
Chance did great work, good price, the arts spectacular. Can’t even put into words how happy I am with this tat
I got my first tattoo with Damon. He helped me pick the font and size. He did a great job, it didn't hurt. The tattoo came out great and my wife loves it. If I ever get another one I will come back. Thanks Damon!
Great experience, walked in with my daughter and we each got two fine line tattoos. Beautiful work, great customer service! Very satisfied, will get more tattoos in the future for sure!
Great Experience! Love my tattoos so much. It was quick and didn’t really hurt. Also not too expensive. Very reasonable price. And the artists were extremely nice and comforting. These were also my first tattoos and so glad I got them here.
Very clean and wonderful staff. Chance hooked me up with my newest two additions to my collection. Would definitely recommend if your out in the San Diego area!
Awesome experience at Sideshow Tattoo! I went in as a walk in with a friend and we both loved our artist and love our new tattoos. Great vibes and definitely going back again.
Went to Sideshow a couple of days ago with a friend as a walk in. The atmosphere and the customer service we received was incredible. Matthew Monroe was the one to assist me - My tattoo is beautiful! Highly recommend.
Really great service! The artist took a lot of time to make our wishes for the tattoo sketch reality. The line work was done amazingly and the designs look wonderful on our skin! Thank u!
Walked in and left with a great tattoo 45 mins later. Chance did an amazing job
I was visiting my bestfriend in San Diego a few weeks ago and we were looking for a local tattoo shop that provides both tattoos and piercings. We came across Sideshow Tattoo online! We were pleased to find out they provide both services. I was also very pleased with the quick and efficient process, especially being…
This was my first walk-in tattoo experience and Damon was able to give me exactly what I was looking for. Everyone was kind and the shop was clean and efficient. I was in and out in just an hour.

I love my tattoo from Chance, it took barely any time and it came out so cute!
Obsessed with my new tattoo done by artist Damon at Sideshow! The shop was super inviting and made me feel very comfortable. Damon was so kind and friendly and I am so happy with how it turned out!
Amazing work
Thanks Matt for fitting all of us in and doing such an amazing job.
My first tattoo and a great experience!!!
Great tattoo artist, super cool and laid back. Perfect…
I got my first tattoo here with a walk-in. It was very quick and fast. I love the outcome of it!
absolutely obsessed with this beautiful tattoo!! Damon did a fantastic job! Definitely would recommend Sideshow Tattoo and Piercing, and I will definitely be back for another one.
Friendly staff. Great environment. Clean Studio. Bethany was great! Absolutely love my tattoo!
My husband and I were lucky enough to walk in to see Matt to get a couple small tattoos each. He was friendly, easy to work with, and we left with awesome tattoos. We’ll go visit him again next time we are in the area!
I went in as a walk-in and the process was very fast and professional. Chance was extremely friendly and made sure I was super comfortable with the size of the design and the design itself. Great experience overall :)
Beth did a fantastic job with my tattoo, was expedient getting me in, and is an incredible artist with a great eye for detail and placement!
Damon was AMAZING!!! Absolutely thrilled with how my tattoo came out. He has incredible attention to detail and got the design exactly right. He was very friendly and professional. We walked right into the shop with no appointment, got our tattoos done at super high quality and a fair price, and walked out in under an hour. 10/10 stars ❤️
I walked in kinda later and they got me in pretty quick. Damon did a really good job. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone in the area
Great place, it was clean, and all of the artists were amazing and professional!
Kipper was fast, light handed, talented and fairly priced. Not sure what else you could ask for!
Chance is the best! His line work is incredible and i feel I will only let HIM tattoo me. He’s 400 miles away and worth the trip.
Beth was phenomenal from start to finish. Had 3 tattoo ideas in mind and settled on one which she brought to life for me. She was patient and not pushy at all with me getting it done and that’s why I ultimately decided to move forward with her. Best decision I made
Walked in without an appointment and Matt welcomed me promptly at the door. We discussed what I wanted done and within 10 mins I was getting my work done. Great pricing and excellent work. Been getting a lot of compliments on the line work and attention to detail. Will be coming back to get my sleeve here.
Thank you so much Beth for the amazing tattoo! It was so nice talking and working with you! I absolutely LOVE my new tattoo! ❤️
Flew down to San Diego for the day + impulsively decided to get a tattoo id been wanting for a while. Heard from multiple friends Sideshow was the place to go - was so happy to have been able to be seen by Damon. He was able to so quickly understand my vision + execute the perfect small tattoo. From nailing the font…
I'm SO obsessed with my tattoos I got last Thursday. I was welcomed so warmly and the experience I had was great. Everyone was so friendly and funny. I'd definitely go back when I'm in the area.
Matt was excellent. Would highly recommend.
We got mother/daughter tattoos done by Damon, great place, super friendly and clean. Damon is such a lovely person, highly recommend, we will be back
The artist did an amazing job on my tattoo. He was very quick with his work but very precise on the placement and line work. I was a walk-in and they were very fast at getting me and my friend checked in and tattooed. I would highly recommend this place to my friends and family. Will definitely be coming back here again.
While in the area with some girlfriends, I randomly wanted to get a tattoo and one recommended Sideshow! The process was super easy and chance was able to help me right away. He made sure I loved my tattoo and placement, and was very patient when I kept changing the placement and size. Fairly priced tat as well.…
Matt did my tattoo, I was a walk in. Super accommodating and very talented guy! I know there’s tons of tattoo shops to choose from on this strip, this is the one to go with!
Matt at Sideshow Tattoo listened to what I wanted and was so easy to work with to get just the right sketch for my tattoo! He made sure I was comfortable. The whole process took 45 minutes, from sketch to finished tattoo, and the final product makes me so happy!
Easy drama free experience! I walked in, described my vision, and a minute later the perfect artist (Matt) was assigned to the work. I walked out 30 minutes later with my new tattoo- it was exactly how I envisioned, Matt was kind and capable, and the price was reasonable.
I got a tattoo from Beth and she was absolutely incredible. I didn’t have the proper references for what I wanted but just from what I described, she was able to come up with exactly what I envisioned! I couldn’t be more happy. She also took the time to make the changes I wanted and had really good opinions on what she thought would look best.
Got my first tattoo here w Damon, I just walked in and they were able to set everything up for me pretty quick, good experience! He was really nice and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. Definitely check this place out 🙏

I’ve been wanting to get dainty back tattoos for sometime and I’m so happy I found Bethany at Sideshow ! She was friendly and patient. Her attention to detail got us to exactly how I wanted mine to look. She brought out the thinnest needle possible making me very happy because it was exactly how I envisioned it to be. Thank you for my tattoo Beth !
Excellent, clean and friendly! Beth did an amazing job with my tattoo!
Really enjoy coming here. Everyone always seems down to earth and chill. Good place for piercings and tattoos. Would definitely recommend.

Great prices and great people!
Sideshow is my one and only. Jedi has done all of my tattoos and has always done exactly what I wanted and never disappointed. Everyone is kind, professional, responsive, and have great energy.

It was a fantastic experience at sideshow tattoo. I got the tattoo done by Jadd, he was great guy and I'm glad to know him now. It's definitely the most incredible looking tattoo I've ever gotten.

My friend and I were in town for a girls trip and decided to get a small tattoo. We walked into Sideshow without an appointment, and Beth was able to help us right away, no wait.

Beth did the tattoo for me and she was amazing, very nice and her work is great! Highly recommend coming to Sideshow Tattoo!
My artist, Matt, was very kind and did a great job at communicating with me throughout the process and adjusting my tattoo design to my liking. This was my first tattoo and I will 100% be back for my next one. Right now I am still waiting to take off the second skin that’s covering my tattoo since I just got it two days ago, but I love it!
Jadd did an awesome job making a fine-line tattoo of a personal piece of art. Very fine work by a master craftsman. So happy with it!
Jedi was amazing! Would go back.
Jadd never misses! He always does a great job! Also very fun to talk to
My wife and I stopped by for a walk in appointment for tattoos. Staff was super friendly, and Matt did an awesome job putting together our designs and doing our tats. We’d go back here in a heartbeat, AWESOME shop!!!
Had Isaac for my most recent piercing at this place. I’ve gone to this business twice before for tattoos and have always had a good experience with the workers and with the results!
Jadd did a beautiful job on my tattoo, it’s exactly what I wanted and the line work is so delicate! He was fun to talk to and I had a great experience
We had a FABULOUS experience! Jadd is an amazing artist. We are so very happy with our couple tattoo and will definitely return for more!
I LOVED THIS PLACE! My tattoo was amazing and we walked in and only waited like 20 min.
We had the most incredible experience at Sideshow. Not only did they take 8 girls (Bach Trip) in within a moments notice but the hospitality and vibes were unmatched. Jedi and Damon did our tattoos and Coach and David were involved the entire time, helping make the whole experience so fun and special for my…
First Tat and Matt killed it
