• 7/28/23Amazing. Best "Ice Cream" (even though it's custard) around. Always brightens up a bad day of dealing with headgaskets

• 7/13/25Mr. Ritter would be proud of how GREAT his company has become. I ordered the turtle sundae. That's what they call it. A turtle. Chocolate, caramel, and walnuts. They are doing a FANTASTIC JOB of making sweets. I like sweet. I said, "Wow! This is the right amount of sweet!" They had a special deal. Buy one get one free. I don't know their business model, but I hope they make lots of money

• 1/17/25BBQ was tasteless, shredded chicken tasted like it was soaked in water, brisket was just okay not really seasoned and the ribs were pretty good. baked beans tasteless and Mac was edible. definitely not a BBQ spot. won't waste anymore money here.

• 8/20/25For one,the ice cream contrainers were open, and I ordered mine with two scoops of caramel just for the caramel to only have the slightest amount and it wasn't even at the bottom or the top. It was barely even on the sides, so might as well call it a regular vanilla ice cream. The guys were in a rush so much that they missed a couple different toppings like m&m's on the other ice cream I bought, and the shake was strawberry instead of chocolate.

• 5/11/25First time trying Ritter's. Super good. Very happy with the portion size. Hit the spot for a late night craving and I had so much left over that I ate on it later that week. Yum!
