Rita's Italian Ice & Frozen Custard

This place smells like childhood dreams and tastes even better. The only complaint I have is that I can’t get it in the winter.

Real good soft serve .

This was my first time in life trying Rita's, and I had heard great things about the chain. I ordered the strawberry watermelon ice and it was super refreshing. It's a little sweeter than the things I would normally care to eat but the flavor was good overall. My BF ordered the custard. It was also my first time trying any custard. It's too thick for my preference (and I know it's meant to be), but I mixed some custard with a bite of my ice and actually really enjoyed it. Apparently, there's a menu item that I missed that's Italian ice with a dollop of custard so I'll make sure I get that next time. Not sure if their Italian ice flavors rotate, but I hope so. Would love to see different flavors on there since strawberry watermelon was the only one that caught my eye.

The salted caramel ice cream sandwich was yummy. But I felt like it had a little freezer burn sorta taste. Anyways, the toffee coffee shake was like $6 and it was soooo NOT worth it. It was above average for the quality of the shake but as for the taste and price relevance it is not on each others level. The venue itself has 1 restroom. And there is seating inside and outside. However the seating inside is very limited and tight so get someone to grab your seat while you wait in line. Parking is across the street. Luckily its free. LOL. Anyways I will definitely try to order another ice cream sandwich next time and I will try to order the blue velvet cake. I would say that this place is like a... try at least once in your life type place lol.

A weekly stop after dinner at work.
