“Had to make a stop at Quality Snowballs on 36th Street! At first glance, I wasn’t sure if I having a snowball or eating a salad! Watermelon Basil and Lime Snowball! Perfectly cut up watermelon on top to ensure that there are pieces in every scoop! Watermelon and Lime snowball flavors with a slice of lime. The fresh basil was good but it seemed to overpower the snowball a little. I would’ve preferred fresh mint instead but overall, it was worth me cheating on my Louv-vah!“

“Always great crabs 🦀 at B&B !“

“I can’t talk enough about the Charmery and how they’re the best ice cream in Baltimore. The mint mountain is fabulous and unlike any other mint chocolate chip flavor you have ever had. The Friday flavor drops are always unique and delicious. And don’t sleep on the ice cream pies!! They’re great for any special occasion.“

“Delish and huge portions!“

“Anil is very kind and he makes a great milkshake! Got to talk with him briefly. Praying he is able to follow his dreams. Grab a milkshake or ice cream after a movie or just for walking around the mall.

Pros: The milkshake is really good!
Cons: Chocolate chips and extra toppings will naturally go to the bottom. Please get bigger straws! I went back to get a long spoon and that helped.“

“Delicious vanilla yogurt with fudge is the best“

“excelente sabor para disfrutar en tiempo caliente“

“As with all airport versions, it's more expensive than its regular counterpart.
But they were quickly, friendly, and they didn't skimp on the serving size.

Danyelle was friendly and helpful at the register.
The guy who made my Sunday, Von, was an artist. He did a fantastic job.“

I love that they change things up periodically so there’s always something new to try. The team does a great job engaging with kids and making the experience fun for everyone. Highly recommend!“

“Baltimore in a Box Ice Cream Parlor is such a fun spot! They offer so many different flavors to taste, which makes the experience exciting. I especially enjoyed the Po-canut flavor — it was delicious, and I loved being able to taste real coconut in it. The variety and quality make this place worth visiting, and I’d definitely go back again.“

“Pho One has been my go-to and #1 pho place for the past 5 years!! I first tried their Chicken Pho back in January of 2022, and let me tell you—it is still the BEST pho I have ever had. I’ve tried so many other places, but nothing compares to Pho One!

From the customer service to the food itself, everything is amazing. You can never go wrong with a classic Chicken Pho! 🍜

They recently changed their plates so the broth stays warmer throughout the entire meal, which makes the experience even better. The atmosphere is amazing, and the employees are always so kind and welcoming.

I also highly recommend their Honey Sriracha wings—they are SO tasty! 🤤The prices are also very reasonable. I’ve been to places that charge $16+ for small portions, but Pho One gives you a delicious, satisfying bowl of pho at a great price.

I love, love, LOVE this place and have been a loyal customer for years. If you’re looking for a great pho spot, trust me, you can never go wrong with Pho One! ❤🍜“

“I love the snowballs. The customer service can be good some days but today 7/01/25 @6pm. It was apparent she didn’t want to be there. I’ve always purchased the XL even after the price went to $7.90. But I will not pay $8.80 because they charge $.90 for using cash app. $9.00 for a snowball is ridiculous. Back to Jamba Juice I go.“

“Our first time ever being there. The Manager, Nina….. absolutely amazing!! She helped us from beginning to end with our order. She made sure everything was hot and fresh! Her customer service is above and beyond! The food was really good!! I haven’t had a shake in years.BABY the shakes were so good!!! Don’t cheat yourself treat yourself!!“

“A friend brought us a sample pack of four cupcakes. What a treat! Moist and delicious cupcakes with unbelievable toppings. I'm not a fan of overly sweet toppings so I was pleased to see that these were not. Just right!“

“Best ice cream I had. Sorry it isn’t open all year“

“Very tasty, healthy, sweet treat. My favorite is the island blend.“

“I have been coming to this Tutti Frutti for the past 6 years. Within the past 3, I have started coming significantly more often. I only ever get boba, and every time I come by, the service is always wonderful. All employees have been very kind, and respectful. A few of them are familiar with me, as I am a regular, and I can say that they are all very polite individuals.
Would absolutely recommend this place! They have great boba.“

“This was a great restaurant to stop by during my layover in Baltimore! I was quite starving, but I didn’t want a big meal or junk food because of my upcoming flight.
This place offered an excellent strawberry banana smoothie that helped quench my hunger. A small was 7 dollars.
It was nice getting to watch them peel the banana, which helped ensure its freshness.
The smoothie itself was delicious and sweet with the two flavors popping out every couple sips.
Overall, great place, and if I’m ever stuck in Baltimore with a growling stomach again, I will be sure to return.

*I took a picture halfway through drinking it because I realized it was so good. They did not give it to me half empty.“

“Great cheesesteaks and wedges, and the pizza’s good, too. The people here are really friendly, and you can get dang near any flavor of shake that you want.“
