Rita's Italian Ice & Frozen Custard — Restaurant in Bayonne

I am not one to leave reviews. But I just came from this place, to order a small regular brownie Sundae. I was the only customer there and it took 15 mins. The cashier was new and didn’t know what she was doing so I don’t blame her for anything, she was sweet.

But the staff didn’t know where the brownies were. My ice cream sat out in a cup for over 10 mins melting, while searching for brownies. The sundae was almost $10 for a small cup…

When they finally found the browies…. It was in a plastic bag. They just poured it on top of my melted ice cream….. and sprayed from whole cream on it and threw on a cherry. The presentation was horrid.

When I started eating the sundae, the taste of the brownie was like it was found in a plastic bag hidden upstairs in an attic for over a year. No taste of chocolate whatsoever, it tasted so so stale. I couldn’t even eat it.

My experience was terrible....

I scream!

Right on the border of Jersey City and Bayonne Rita's is serving up Italian Ices. Located in the strip mall are several stores like Wonder Bagel, a dollar store and a filipino grocery. Spacious parking lot for all to park. Rita's also shares there space with Chester Chicken.

Rita's has been a favorite since they started popping up in New Jersey years ago. I especially go to Rita's now because they offer some sugar free options which are still plenty sweet.

You can bring home larger sizes like a quart or gallon to freeze up for later. They aso do some catering which is nice for a childrens birthday party on a hot summer day.

Staff is very nice and patient with indecisive customers.

Will definitely return for more Rita's...

Anytime you come to this place after 9, they always want to say they are out of custard when they are not. Or they say they already turned the blender off. If you close at 10 all menu items should be available up until 10. If you still decide to get something that requires the blender they will say you have to wait 10 mins for it to be made when in reality they are cleaning the back of the house during those 10 mins to leave at 10. Serving the customer should be first then cleaning up the store for closing afterwards. I got here at 9:20 & they close at 10. Making a small concrete shouldn't take more than 5 mins which will be done before the...
