One of the cleanest Ralph’s I’ve ever been to! Every time I stop by, the store smells so fresh and inviting. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming, and I’ve even had the pleasure of meeting the owners a few times — they’re wonderful! My go-to order is a tropical blend smoothie, and lately I’ve been adding the new pomegranate Dole Whip (SO good!). I just wish they were open year-round, but I love supporting a locally owned business when they are in season. Highly recommend!

This place has quickly become my go-to spot for a sweet treat, and it never disappoints. My absolute favorites are the Peanut Butter Crunch Sundae and the Cake Shake with extra sprinkles! What really sets Ralph's apart is the amazing service. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, and they go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. The store is always spotless too, which gives off such a nice, inviting vibe. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick treat or just enjoying the atmosphere, I always leave with a smile on my face. If you’re in the area, Ralph's Oceanside is a must-visit—everything from the desserts to the service is top-notch!

Delicious! Great customer service. Nice location with parking on the side and back. Fair pricing $5 a cup, make sure you tip cash!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Dr.Anju Nair · Jul 2024

Tried Ralph's ice cream for the first time and yes Iagree the flavors are great but not exceptional and the service sucked.The ladies at the counter work at a snail's place and kept clarifying for the orders over and over again.No place to sit and dine.Parking is skim too.The area is pretty shady.We tried banana fudge,blueberry cheesecake and coconut ice-cream Nothing out of this world,just enough to cool one down during hot summers!

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Kristine Romero · Sep 2025

Don't get me wrong the ice cream and such is good here at ralphs on Merrick rd in Oceanside. BUTTTT The boss seems to care more about the job than the actual people working there.. don't hire students if its an issue. The girls who work here can come off a bit snotty but its whatever, I also heard the blenders are only cleaned with water? Which doesn't seem to be sanitary.
