“Beth at DQ in Rio Grande NJ had great customer service.. Went above and beyond for the group of kids I had and never seemed annoyed and also had the kids laughing as she worked to get our orders done.. I just want to thank you for going above and beyond and making this experience a great one.. We all need a Beth that works that hard and smiles through it all..“

“My family and I went to Rita's in Rio Grande this past Sunday for Sundae Sunday Night were all Sundae's were half price. Nearly all of the parking lot was full and there were about 7-8 people ahead of us, but we got to the cashier to place our orders in about 10 minutes. The cashier was very friendly while taking our orders and ringing us up. We each had sundaes and as always, the custard was absolutely delicious. All of the toppings were great as well with the exception of the gummy bears which were pretty rock hard. They were almost the consistency of JuJuBees. We will definitely be back for another round of Sundaes on Sunday in the future.“

“The worker was so nice. She showed us ingredients and was "invested" in us. She even treated us well. Service was LOVELY! Definitely recommend. The food itself was soo good. I mean, for the price, this kills. I really loved it. SO MUCH! I just wished this was in my location. Thank you for this pleasant memory.

Vegetarian options: Limited options.

Kid-friendliness: Worker was sweet.“

“These are the best things ever!! In the summer you can’t get near the place because it’s so busy. The like is worth the wait! They have mail order and we have ordered three times! The more u order the better the price. This last time we ordered 24! The owner of this store is super nice and treats his employees so good! Def MUST HAVE!!“

“BEST ICECREAM! I'll choose this place over any other place, glad to see you guys back from over a year. only thing I'm confused about is why no one answers calls, and it would be super cool to have a working live truck tracker in 2024 near cape may area nj :) love the milkshakes sooo much ^_^ keeping 5 stars because I want ya guys to stay“

“I'm a big fan of boba tea, so I've tried it from several places on the Wildwood boardwalk. In my opinion, theirs has the best taste and is actually served cold unlike a lot of other places on the boards. I asked for a medium and was literally $0.50 short. Most places would have told me not to worry about 50 cents, but it's a business, so I understand.“

“Our family LOVES going to the Hershey's Ice Cream Wildwood shop! They not only serve the BEST ice cream treats but their crepes and funnel cakes are out of this world! They also serve up smiles with a friendly staff! Our children love going there every day! well and night, too! Enjoy!“

“Awesome family owned and operated business“

“amazing ice cream i personally love the peanut butter sundae“

“Delicious gelato! It made me feel as if I were visiting Italy again!“

“Food was amazing and service was outstanding... Death by Chocolate Brownie Sundae was out of this world!!“

“My favorite spot on the boardwalk to get ice cream!! Nothing beats DQ (especially this location!)! Staff is always very friendly, and they all work hard and efficiently to get through the long line that’s always out front! My son had dropped his blizzard, and without even asking, the young girl working kindly offered to make him a new one :) Would 100% recommend to anyone staying in the area who wants some good ole DQ ice cream for a treat!!“

“Kings is my go-to spot for ice cream in Cape May! This time I tried the Lavender Bliss, Vanilla ice cream infused with lavender, topped with granola and a honey drizzle. It was absolutely sublime! The portion was generous too, so big I couldn’t finish it and ended up sharing with my group. There were seven of us plus a baby, and everyone gave Kings a solid five stars!“

“Tremendous, never had a bad bowl from this place. Great service too. It’s not a fast food junk hut so you’ll wait a few extra minutes but well worth it.“

“Great ice cream! Kids had a blast. On certain days they have a balloon entertainer (free! tips welcomed). Staff super friendly.“

“Great place!! We went on a hot day, they have fans running and even bug spray available (we didn’t need it) Very fun for my 14yo son and i, clean and staff super friendly! The water ice at the end was amazing and refreshing Thank you!“

“Overall was really good. It's at the bottom of a hotel which I didn't know however that really didn't matter. The food was good a little expensive but it's Cape May so you should expect that. But overall good experience.“

“I’ve eaten at the Cafe Villa Nova multiple times over the years when I’m staying in Wildwood Crest. The menu has a lot of variety and I’ve never had a bad meal there because the food has always been delicious and very filling at a great price point.

Whenever we go there for breakfast we’re always fortunate to have Natalie as our server. She’s always pleasant, friendly and most importantly, she’s always hustling and attentive in serving her customers.

As for the atmosphere, the place is a bit outdated but that’s ok, because the food and waitress service is wonderful. All the condiments on the table are Walmart brand, which isn’t the best quality. They could do better if they used Heinz products and had better table napkins. Though I do believe it has changed owners or management several times in the last few years which may have led to the lower quality condiments etc.

Overall, I’d recommend Cafe Villa Nova if you’re staying in the Wildwoods. The great service and the delicious food make this place a hidden gem.“
