Rita's Italian Ice & Frozen Custard — Restaurant in Deerfield Beach

Came here after an encounter with a rare opportunity as a celebration. As fortuitous as it should be, my sons birthday coincided with the Blue Moon in Pisces. We had an incredible day together, which are becoming more common as his mother is allowing to see him more often. Johnathan requested Italian ice as the capstone for our day together and off we went. This Rita’s location had recently opened near where I am currently living, and after a negative experience of disallowing astral projection at another unnamed Italian Ice Peddler, we came here. I ordered a Gelati with Chocolate ice and Vanilla Gelato, and Johnathan ordered a Mango Italian ice in the size of Medium. As we sat on the pictured bench and enjoyed this special moment together, Johnathan told me about his dreams and visions of the future. I love my son and I am thankful to Rita’s for being a sweet ending to our...

I was in visiting from Southern California where most of our locations closed, and craving Rita's! I searched for the closest and found this location not far from where we were. The owner and his employee were so kind, greeting us right away. Asked if we had been in before (my friend had not), gave her the full rundown of what to expect, options, samples, etc. - you could tell he was super passionate about the product and experience. Store was super clean and inviting. Guided us to his favorite flavor which quickly became mine, some friendly conversation, and off we were. Honestly, the experience was top notch and not what you would expect from a small chain custard spot. I believe he owns one other location and deserves all the best. I wish they would open more in San Diego again, but for now I'll have to visit this one every time I'm in town. GO...

Andre (the manager) is the bomb!! My partner and I are from Arizona and are visiting family, but we spent Christmas Day sick at home. We wanted a little ice cream pick-me-up, so I called about 4 Rita's in the area, and this was the only location that answered the phone. After making the 25min drive, we were greeted kindly by Andre. In Phoenix, the only custard flavors are vanilla & chocolate; we were FLOORED to see that there were like 7 other custard options including cheesecake and caramel macchiato! We asked Andre for his recommendation and he broke it all down for us and let us sample as many as we liked. The ice and custard was delicious, and now we are super envious that our Phoenix Rita's does not have these custard offerings! Thanks to Andre for making our Christmas night!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Guy...
