They were kind enough to bring their flavors to our job and what a refreshing treat. I copped out and got the lemon but it was so good and reminded of those childhood trips to the waterfront. Excellent choice for a refreshing summer treat

The lady is quick to cut you off. I asked to sample two flavors and she rolled her eyes and gave me a disgusted look. She gave all my friends napkins with their icees but I had to ask for one. It felt racially motivated because I was the only black person there.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Derek Ramirez · Mar 2018

Just your classic Rita's! They got all the classics like ice and custard and gelati and more! Not as many flavors as other Rita's but that's alright, still around 9 flavors.

I asked for a blendini with vanilla custard and root beer ice. Before I could even ask for my toppings, they cut me off, charged me, and started serving the next person. They gave me my blendini after waiting approximately 20 minutes, which is fine I guess, even though they weren't busy. I asked for the toppings, and they refused, saying that blendinis dont come with toppings. Total waste of money and a drive all the way out here. Terrible service.

★★★★★ 5.0 Elizabeth Eisenhauer · Apr 2023

This is the only place I have found vanilla water ice which is my absolute favorite flavor. It was truly an amazing experience
