Love Rita’s, they have a nice selection of flavors and combinations. This place is VERY popular when it’s hot out and can sometimes form a bit of a line due to low staff but other than that I love this place.

Discovered the joy of water ice in the east coast, so glad there’s a spot in the west.

Stopped by at 8:55 PM and was told by the young lady they're closed, why have 'open' hours if you're not actually gonna stay open for them? The doors were still open, so I am just a bit confused. Lost my business going forward unfortunately.

It was our first time trying this and we loved it. Josie was really nice to us and patient taking our order. I love that it’s fresh and it’s an enjoyable place to eat Italian ice. ??

The girls wanted to come back here again. I noticed a yelp treat so I didn't mind coming back just days after too.I wanted to try strawberry Italian ice with the ice cream but no strawberry still.I was lucky to find street parking right in front but a lot of parking is available in the back.I would say this place is never without a customer but the times we came wasn't crazy busy just busy enough to know there would always be someone looking for a treat.

People are great workers. Girls r little bit rude most days. the owner and all the other gentleman there are really sweet. All their Italian ice and Frozen cold drinks all great to have on a hot day.

This place is our goto spot after my daughter gets out of school at CVE. Love to support our local eateries and invite all locals to visit and enough their tasty ice cream treats
First time ever coming into one of these establishments & was definitely enjoyable!Sampled the sour patch kid red & blue ocean flavors which were very sweet, but mixed with their old fashioned frozen custard it was the perfect blend. Love the old school look & feel of the place - will definitely recommend to a friend & will absolutely try again!

So good, cold, creamy goodness. The consistency of the custard was thick and so smooth
Laura Duchossois
My guilty pleasure! So good!

If you haven't experienced frozen custard and Italian ice, you are missing out. The frozen yogurt is not quite ice cream and not frozen yogurt, kinda like the two came together and had a baby. It is the creamiest non sour "frozen yogurt"... Mixed with what they are calling Italian ice, (it's frozen flavored sugar juice slushy) and you have yourself a perfect treat.Staff was friendly enough and this place is getting super popular even during the winter. when it gets hot and you know Castro Valley will get hot, this place will have lines out the door

0 if possible for this visit. The cashier had told us that we'd be last after an order she finished because we came 3 mins before 7. There wasn't any mention of why they should be closing up 2 hours earlier than normal and very passive aggressive actions when performing her job. Lots of slamming of the handles and just pushing things towards customers faces as well as not filling the cup enough. I also feel that the party in the store were associated with the cahsier and is the reason for wanting to close up early. It's okay though I will find a different Rita's to go to or better yet a different gelato/ custard place entirely.
