They do a healthy carryout business. The menu is loaded with goodness. Everything sounded like something you'd love to sample. The young man at the register could not have been more helpful and told us what the most popular item was... the cheesesteak sub. He said his personal favorite was the MD Crab Grilled Cheese. It has a blend of 4 cheeses, lump crab meat, and Old Bay Aioli. I knew I had to try it. They are generous with the crabmeat! I got it with a mixed whole grain bread. Out of this world delicious. I could only finish half. In the past, I have had versions of this that were greasy, not so with this 1. My husband opted for the large size Mobtown Classic sub. It was enormous, well stuffed. And when they say well stuffed, they mean it in the truest sense of the word. The sub roll was nice and fresh. He had them brown it, so it would be less wet. Half of that went home. All in all, it was delightful. Really good food and plenty to enjoy later. Dine in is limited, only 3 tables. Cold Coke beverages are available. We will be back.

Tropical Smoothie Cafe in Rosedale is absolutely exceptional! Everything about this place is top-notch. The food and smoothies are consistently fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. My personal favorites are the Banana Flatbread sandwich, Mango Smoothie, and the Acai Bowl - they never disappoint! The staff is always cheerful, friendly, and provide excellent service. Whether you're stopping by for a quick snack or a meal, the atmosphere is welcoming, and you always leave with a smile.

He was a sweetie pie, too. Man, I miss the East Coast! Nothing but cool peeps like me just living their lives. After learning that I had a 4 hour layover, I was STOKED. Saw my girl, Khadijah for my returning flight to LA!! I was ECSTATIC! YOU HAVE NO IDEA. It's not the drink but the great vibes and company at Martini's. In fact, I noticed that when she's working, she's always got a full bar. It's her excellent attitude and vibe! I showed up and she had everyone up at the bar so I sat to the right of the bar so I can charge my phone! Even better, she remembered me! She told me that you can grab a drink if you have family, and sit across the way, if need be because those under 21 cannot sit at the bar. 2025.11-05/WED_1400: Just finished a long flight from LAX and had a two hour layover at BWI. I found the only bar between Concourse A and B. Originally, I was trying to stay close to gate A8. Had no idea my gates had changed to gate B. Martini is located at the top of the escalator on the way to Concourse B and the food court. The airport is under construction but you'll see it when you look for the escalator. There was a good amount of customers that looked like they were also on a layover having a great time. The bartender was a gorgeous lady by the name of Khadijah. It's so wonderful to see her beautiful smile and wonderful attitude. I don't know how she does it dealing with some grumpy and idiotic people! She's incredible just knocking everyone out with her wonderful customer service, attitude and SMILE. This changed her from beautiful to gorgeous or gorgeous to stunning. Whichever is top notch! Hospitality is 200%! Some customers feel so entitled and she handled everyone like a champ. No fuss, just a lovely attitude and she let stuff roll off her like waterproof wood stain. She also made me a drink called a Sexy Mule which had muttled blueberries, a flower of some sort (can't remember which flower liquor she told me) and extra ginger (it looked like pink lemonade garnished with blueberries). It hit the spot! Great suggestion! It was nothing like those bland Moscow Mules. If you are wondering where to go after a long flight and you're stuck at BWI for a long layover, I would suggest you see Khadijah at Martini because you won't receive stellar hospitality at any other bar at BWI like this! I'll be returning to BWI next week so I hope I see her again for my insane layover! #hospitality #martini #bar #baratBWI #BWI #mortimerthebear # travellingbear #everywherebear #ConcourseA
