The ice itself is fantastic, just can't give the ephrata Rita's 5 stars because the vibes are bad. They need some music playing or something to bring a little life to the place. Customer service was excellent 👌

I’ve been reading these reviews and the people just simply don’t understand that the flavors change everyday and run out sometimes. Ritas can’t guarantee the flavor you want will be there. Treat the workers will respect and maybe they will be nice back.

OH MY G_D! Why did I have to wait until I was over 50 to try a Gelati? Amaz-balls! I got the cherry ice and chocolate custard version. So good I wished I hadn't gotten the smallest size!
