Moon was responsive, knowledgeable, full of Hawai'i lore and made my experience enjoyable. He is a very traditional tattoo artist and has a ton of experience- I trusted his opinions and vision for my project.

Solid work by a solid guy. I am already planning another piece with Mario. Not to mention the history of this shop and guys. Great place for sure! read more

RD is freaking amazing! My friends and I decided we wanted to get some tattoos, even though we had very little time, and RD made it happen.

I waited until my tattoo was almost fully healed before leaving this review, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The studio was spotless and incredibly well-maintained, which made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. Moon has clearly been in the tattoo world for a long time and knows his craft inside and out. He was professional, patient, and took the time to ensure every detail was perfect. If you're looking for a studio that prioritizes cleanliness and professionalism, I highly recommend this place. My tattoo came out beautifully, and I'll definitely be back for more! Mahalo! read more

Where to begin? If I could give Moon 10 stars I would. He was kind enough to fit my daughter and myself in today as we are leaving tomorrow. Sent him our artwork and he was on it right away. When we got to the shop it was so clean and professional. Moon greeted us right away. Moon was so patient with us and any changes we may have had. I have a few tattoos and I have never had so little pain when being worked on. Moon's work is stunning and more than what I could have ever wanted. Thank you Moon!! read more

We were on vacation and all wanted to get tattoos that represented Hawaii since we love it here. Kamu did an excellent job on all 3 of our tattoos!

Location is great in Kapaa and surrounded by shops/restaurants so there's plenty to do too if you're waiting for a friend to finish their tattoo. HIGHLY recommend!! read more

Great place! My boyfriend and his Dad had Moon do all of our tattoos, he has a large variety of art.

Moon was fantastic! I communicated with him before we came down for our vacation. My son and I both had small tattoos we wanted as memories. He was able to get us in without any problems. He talked us through sizing and placement. He was quick and detailed with his work for both of us. After my husband saw the work, Moon was even able to get him in the next day for his first tattoo! Can't wait to come back for our next trip! read more

I cannot say how much I absolutely love my tattoo!!! Justin did such a beautiful and detailed piece of art, completely freestyle drawing. The shading and detail in the flowers is just gorgeous! It came out so much better than the pic I brought. You could tell he's an artist first and not just a tattoo guy. Very conscientious about his work, he is passionate about what he's putting on your body and wants it to be as perfect as you do. Honestly I'm SO GLAD I found him and when I go back to Kauai I will definitely be getting more work by him. Absolutely recommend him - ask for Justin and you will not be disappointed!! read more

Kukui Street Tattoo - Moon tattooing my partner - Tattoo Near Me - Kapaa, Hawaii

What an exceptional shop with exceptional artists! It was an absolute pleasure to meet Moon and Mario and to witness the beautiful soul they put into their art and Kukui Street Tattoo. Moon was great at communicating through the yelp app with us, and when we met him, we knew this was the shop for us. I showed him a sketch we wanted for my husband's tattoo and he worked with me to make it into a completely original work that blended his unique perspective and the heart and motion, strength and fluidity we wanted to portray. The result is a gorgeous tribal shark -- with Maori / Polynesian influences. The whole experience with Moon was wonderful. A favorite memory to treasure! Also, one thing that greatly influenced our decision was the client education they show on their site, as well as in person. They are knowledgeable, incredible artists, and fiercely dedicated to creating original art for each personalized client. And their shop is lovely! -- super clean, with a relaxing peace that permeates and welcomes. Moon, thank you. We are grateful for you. You and Mario have quickly become Ohana to us. You shared more than just business excellence. You shared the heart of who you are. Aloha nui loa... read more

I am a lover of ink. I already have a full sleeve and starting on the other. All of my ink tells a story. I was honored to meet an amazing g artist (Moon) who bent over backwards to help my wife and I out at the end of our vacation in Kaua'I. He was able to incorporate a very meaningful traditional piece into what i already had (as you can see). I cannot wait to go back and get more done. This is truly a family. You are Ohana when you walk through that door. Moon, thank you so much, uso. Much love and Mahalo. read more

While on vacay, my partner decided that a tattoo would be a great souvenir. I researched shops using yelp (personally, I wouldn't go to a shop without a personal recommendation, but...). Based on the great reviews, I called Pedro and was able to get my friend in that same day. We went in, showed him an inspiration photo and he drew something right on the spot. A few little tweaks later, and she was satisfied with the drawing. She immediately felt that Pedro was the right guy. He is confident and very warm...just the kinda guy you want poking needles in you for about 90 minutes. She was super happy with the end result and would recommend the shop and Pedro to anyone looking to get a sweet tat! read more
