Rita's Italian Ice & Frozen Custard is a welcoming establishment known for its exceptional customer service. The staff are described as kind and attentive, with veterans like Anita and Julia, and newcomers such as Tanner and Olivia, providing service that is second to none. They work diligently to fulfill orders with patience and remember the nuances of regular customers' off-menu requests, even offering scrumptious suggestions.
The ice cream is creamy, and the Italian ice is flavorful, with the gelati being particularly praised. New and innovative flavors are regularly introduced, keeping customers coming back for more. The family-run business creates an inviting atmosphere, and the owner, Julia, is recognized for her friendly and helpful demeanor. While the small interior can make it challenging for wheelchair users to navigate, the business is well-maintained and operated.
Customers have consistently positive dining experiences, often mentioning the perfect treats to cool down and indulge after a workout at the nearby Basecamp Fitness-Apple Valley. The anticipation for the spring opening grows each year, as lines become longer. October's closing for winter is always sad, but it builds up excitement for the next season. Many express gratitude for having this Rita's location in their neighborhood, highlighting that while the treats are worth going for, it is the amazing people that make them want to return again and again.
