★★★★★ 5.0 Parker Shearer · Dec 2025

I have visited this location several times and have always had quick and friendly service. The drive-through often does not have a long wait and is a nice, convenient option. Prices are reasonable and they have a great, rotating selections of ice & custards. Defiantly recommend.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rita’s is hands down our favorite summer treat spot! The staff is always so friendly and helpful, which makes the experience even better. I had the s’mores Italian ice with salted caramel custard — the perfect combo of sweet and creamy. The kids loved their gummy bear ice with a mix of strawberry, vanilla, and cotton candy custards. Everything was delicious! Bonus: they even gave our pup a pup cup. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun and refreshing stop on a hot day!

★★★★★ 5.0 Jessica Gianelloni · Jul 2025

Absolutely delicious treats! If you haven't tried them yet, you need to! The Italian Ice is so refreshing. I've tried the Italian Ice in Lemon (pictured), Dr. Pepper, and Strawberry so far and I love them all. The custard is really delicious too. Also they have pup cups! My little chi gives 2 paws up and 10/10 licks on both the whipped cream and custard pup cups.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kelly Miller · May 2024

Custard is creamy and delicious but melts fast. There were 6 people working who were more interested in filling drive-thru and online orders than helping the line full of people at the counter. We waited a long time to be served. It was $15 for two blizzard type small desserts. Tasty, expensive - not sure we’ll return

★★★★★ 5.0 Kaleb ! · May 2024

Very good service and selection of menu items!! For the frozen ice you are able to taste test as many flavors as you wish which is very nice! The manager was very friendly as well! I will definitely be coming back for more frozen ice because the cotton candy was delicious!! 10/10 service & 10/10 experience. I hope this place stays!!
