Italian ice and basic custard squirrels, it's a formula used across the chain and they do it OK. Don't expect miracles or great taste. You can expect a good dose of artificial colors and plenty of sweeteners. If you want something healthier, a few blocks north is a high-end supermarket with prepared foods and they have natural and organic frozen treats

I have been going to Rita’s a lot lately with the heat slowly rising! I always enjoy the sugar free choice of the day and get whipped cream added. It’s always delicious and the staff is so sweet. I’ve been several afternoons lately and look forward to going back soon.

Rita's Ice is one of several places I go for a cool treat especially living in Florida. I'm a Gelati girl, so it's usually my go to. Italian Ice topped with vanilla custard. Although they rotate flavors at times. My favorite flavors are coconut cream, island fusion, mango, pina colada, and cherry. All of them taste great with custard on top. The staff has been nice each time I have went.

We were excited to find this historic treat spot. Before eating the treat we grabbed a bite. Unfortunately we got more than we bargained for 🙁 We parked (at Rita’s) and then walked 60ft to Biggies Pizza (never heard of them) turned out to be the BEST pizza ever. Service was great, store very clean. The manager at Rita’s rushed to my 16 old son after we went in for pizza, to tell him to leave. My husband 100% disabled veteran with a handicapped sticker was also asked to move behind a building down the road somewhere. There were at least 10 additional parking spots available, and we were having dessert at Rita’s. We explained that we wanted to get a bite before getting dessert. The manager said to tell that to the Rita staff. We were hesitant to eat dessert there because of the treatment. Ho

Been coming to Rita’s for 20+ years, I grew up in the area and now bring my children here. Absolutely delicious and worth every penny. The lady who served us was lovely and engaging. Lots of parking and places to sit. Until next time!
