Manager was very nice and helpful.
Being from Philly we were overjoyed to find a somewhat local Rita's.
Lots of flavor choices, clean and welcoming, some outside seating would be great if allowed.

Today was our first visit at Ritas. I want to say our ice cream was delicious. We got one cookies and cream shake, one vanilla shake, and a mint custard. I was really impressed to see they made the shakes by hand (with milk, syrup, etc). This is the only place I know of that sells a mint custard!

The only thing I would recommend for the owner is places to sit. When you think about going to an ice cream shop, you think about going and sitting down to enjoy it.. not bringing it back to your car. There’s one bench outside but it was taken. Other than that, great ice cream ?

I’ve visited this Rita’s numerous times since they have opened, every time the staff and service have been very accommodating and extremely friendly and welcoming. They seem to always have a flavor for everyone. Just overall glad to have other options in this town than Jeremiah’s!

It was okay, but I think Jeremiah's is ALOT better.

Wow..... the custard is smoothhhhh. It was so rich I gave up halfway through the concrete. The prices are very reasonable, especially if you have a large family. The prices remind me of what you would see in better times between 2016 and 2020. The employees are the best. They are friendly and patient with Rita's newbies.

Several trips in - All staff (day or evening) have been super nice and approachable if anyone was unsure of what to get, or not aware of the potential combinations of custard and Italian ice. Prices are reasonable and the servings are what I expected to get. The fun 1980s music completes a great experience. Nothing to change here - stay the course.

Finally a ritas has opened in my area:). This place is absolutely amazing! Every time I come in the owners are always welcoming. All the employees are also very friendly.They always offer me samples and talk about all the delicious things they have. All together this place is most definitely a 10/10. Can’t wait to go back:)

I recently had the pleasure of trying Rita's Italian Ice, and it was an absolute delight! The variety of flavors offered is impressive, each one bursting with authentic taste. The staff was friendly and helpful, adding to the overall positive experience. Rita's has earned its place as my go-to spot for a delicious and satisfying Italian ice treat. Five stars without a doubt!
