Rita's Italian Ice - Galveston

Escape the heat with a delightful gelato treat! This place offers the creamiest custard in classic flavors like vanilla and chocolate, as well as refreshing Italian ice. Don’t miss their milkshakes, called "concretes," which are packed with delicious ingredients. The staff is friendly and efficient, ensuring a quick service. You can grab a chilly treat at the walk-up window or step inside to enjoy the cool air conditioning. Conveniently located right on the Seawall, they also provide outdoor seating that's perfect for your furry friend.

Rita consistently offers excellent custard and ice cream. You can personalize your order, and the customer service is always outstanding. They also adhere well to the new safety measures implemented due to Covid-19. I highly recommend this spot as a must-visit when you're in Galveston.

If you’re in town, you definitely need to check out this place. It’s especially great after a day at the beach. I always go for the mango misto!

Love it. Tried out the Blood Drink for Halloween season. It's to die for. I was worried it might had strawberry because I'm allergic to them, but no. It had cherry instead. Definitely worth the time to grab a ice cream and gelati here when you come.

Had seen this place before but wasn't sure about the parking situation; today we happened to park in the Seawall nearby, so we came here. The Florida Orange gelati with vanilla ice cream was a great and tasty treat after being out in the sun. Service was fast and friendly. Glad we came here!
