No seating anywhere but Rita's is great just standing around eating on a hot day.

I always get the gelati. Normally it's 50% italian ice and 50% frozen custard but I treat the ice like a topping and ask for 80% custard and only 20% ice. It's awesome they always get the ratio right. Mango is the best ice flavor. Can't go wrong with it.

Parking is rough here. Always have to park 3 streets away. Just be prepared to walk a little.

Awesome atmosphere, and the Ice & custards are amazing. Great store with great workers.

I went there with some friends and I got a Margarita frozen ice. It was delicious, there was a line but it only took 5 minutes for us to reach the order window.

Kid-friendliness: Great place to take your kids to get a snack.

I never have had Italian ice, so I had no clue what to expect going in. I got the cherry one because I like cherry flavour in general. I got a medium size and still it was too much for me. Basically, it is shaped Ice with cherry flavouring. I guess it is an acquired taste, because to be honest, I did not like it very much. The cherry flavouring seemed way too artificial and chemical like for me, and the sweetness was again way too high for my liking. But I can see why some people enjoy this. It’s just not my thing.

Amazing ice cream and better service! I had the chocolate and the coffee custard. The coffee flavor was a little too sweet to my liking but the chocolate custard was so rich and flavorful.The staff was incredibly helpful. I’d go back again just to have a conversation with them. Owners, give the young woman and man working the evening of October 8, 2022 raises please and thank you! ???Sincerely,A satisfied customer
