Congratulations To Salvation Tattoo, Mammu Zu, and L’Opposum

Posted on May 26, 2015 by Scott

Style magazine‘s annual ‘Best of Richmond’ issue is out this week, and in it is a recommendation for Salvation Tattoo Gallery (on W. Cary Street) as “Readers’ Choice” for the area’s “Best Tattoo Parlor”.

In almost 11 years of operation, husband-and-wife team Katie Davis and Fred Pinckard have become known as much for their bod style as their reputation for consistent work. The couple now works with there additional artists who play off each others’ strengths. David adds that their manager, Philip Armstrong, makes a point to remember every client’s name. “You’re going to have something on you permanently,” Davis says, “and you’re going to remember where you were and what the feeling was like when you got that done.”

Mamma Zu (corner of Spring and S. Pine) also received mention as the “Reader’s Choice” for the “Best Italian Restaurant” (though Style could not resist adding a snooty comment about its Oregon Hill locale), while L’Opposum (corner of China and S. Pine) has a small article on its “Most Entertaining Interior”.
