Rita’s is the best Italian ice! I love their Swedish Fish flavor. For a large, it was just over $4 which is a really good price. The people working were amazing. I got my item within seconds of ordering it, and there was a small line when I went so it was very impressive that they cranked out the items so quickly. They have all sorts of items on their menu that are refreshing and delicious. Highly recommend trying if you have not already!

I’m a local in Erma , and Rita’s never disappoints! Leonor waits on me , and my grandchildren the majority of the time! She is so welcoming with that beautiful smile she has great energy! Favorite flavor is sugar-free cherry! I wish there was a sugar-free custard! Maybe one day Rites 💫
