This place is the kind of neighborhood ice cream shop that feels like summer…read more Walking in was like stepping back into my childhood. The bright hand-painted walls, bubbly lettering, colorful sprinkles, gravel parking lot, picnic tables outside, and even the old pay phone all give it a wonderfully nostalgic, old-school charm. Nothing feels manufactured. It just feels authentic. Everyone working there was so welcoming and friendly. I especially loved sitting outside. It's simple, relaxed, and family-friendly. Kids can run around while everyone enjoys their ice cream. It's comfortable, relaxing, and refreshingly unpretentious. The ice cream was delicious, and the prices were another pleasant surprise. We paid about six dollars for a serving that easily could have cost twice as much somewhere trendier. Scoop to my Lou has character, heart, and a timeless charm that's becoming harder to find. I'll definitely be back.

They also have a pretty extensive topping bar. My go-to is the toasted coconut, which is usually in stock. My only complaint is that at some point they changed the cheesecake bites, which were not as good as the original ones. The atmosphere of this place is pretty fun -- they have cute seating. Sometimes it can be hard to get seating on busy nights, but there's also places to sit outside. One thing I appreciate about this location is that they always honor app promotions and coupons. Solid place for frozen yogurt!

There is limited service as the frozen yogurt is a self serve situation. You're able to pick your flavors and toppings and then pay by weight. Seating is variable depending on when you go. If it's during peak hours during the school year then it may be hard to find a spot to sit inside and eat. But overall great spot to satisfy your sweet tooth!

As a connoisseur of fine ice creams, I recently indulged in the Rum & Raisin flavor, a personal…read morefavorite. The experience was nothing short of impressive. The rich, creamy texture combined with the robust flavor of rum and the sweet, chewy raisins created a delightful symphony of taste and texture. My companion opted for a strawberry ice cream shake. While it was well-prepared, the flavor didn't quite resonate with me, as strawberry isn't my preferred choice. However, for those who enjoy a classic strawberry shake, it would likely be a satisfying option. I am eager to return for another serving of the Rum & Raisin ice cream. Next time, I plan to enhance the experience by adding a sprinkle of walnuts or hazelnuts, introducing a delightful crunch that would complement the smooth, rich base. Great service and they have few outdoor benches as well to enjoy your ice cream.

Best soft serve I have ever had!!!…read more Honestly... I can't say enough good things about this place. To say I was pleasantly surprised I'd an understatement. I got a soft serve swirl with cookie dough bites and it was delicious. The ice cream is perfectly creamy, and the vanilla had an almost marshmallow-y taste to it. It also sort of reminded me of the cream inside an Oreo. Perfectly balanced between creamy and cold- it didn't taste watered down or too "Icy". My mom and my 16 month old also agreed. (Ok, my mom agreed. My son was a fan but he doesn't quite understand just how good it was yet.) My son didn't finish his, so we brought it back with us to upstate NY. Yes, it was good enough to save in the freezer at our hotel and then to shlep back home so I could enjoy one more time. And also so my husband could try it since I couldn't stop raving about it. Also worth noting- I'm very impressed at their variety. They have lots of soft serve and hard ice cream flavors. I hope I have another work trip that brings me back, cause I will be dreaming of this ice cream until then!

New to the area but we've been invited to two birthday parties where they purchased the birthday…read morecake from here. One of my kids' birthdays is coming up so I decided to keep that going. I haven't tried too many cakes in the area so I can't truly compare to give it a full 5 star rating BUT the comments I hear a lot of is they use fresh fruit in their cakes. I usually get birthday cakes from Asian bakeries where fresh fruit is expected so that was an interesting comment to make from my POV. The fruit birthday cakes I've had from here are pretty good. Not too sweet and the most interesting fruit fillings I've had in cake - banana! Among other fruits. The cake isn't as light/airy as I'm used to but not bad at all. The buttercream is on the sweeter side for me but okay if you eat it with the cake and don't leave it until the end. It's not a terribly thick layer. But the cakes were super colorful and it's a lot of food coloring with how saturated the colors are. Your mouth and tongue will be stained if you're not careful. Having said that, I ordered an Oreo cake because that's why my kid wants. BUT I did request that instead of buttercream on the outside, it'll be whipped cream. Still buttercream on the inside though. I'll update this review after the party as it hasn't happened yet. This is a shop that sort of takes you back when you walk in. It's located in a corner shopping center of sorts and they have a shared parking lot so no need to hunt for parking. It has a nostalgic feel with display cases along much of the length, refrigerated sections for drinks (some were Asian which surprised me) and ice cream cake. Plus a wall of candles and birthday cake decorations because they do take a lot of orders for special occasions. No extra frills and nothing for decor's sake. There was a steady line when I went on Sunday morning. Two doors, one designed to be the entrance and the other the exit (but there isn't a police so use whichever door, but the line starts at the entrance door). As you walk up to the counter, someone will help you out. They've got all sorts of things from pastries to cookies, cakes, cupcakes, cannoli's, pies... even a tres leches section that was woefully empty. The only thing is for some odd reason, there are signs of what the items were, but absolutely no prices were posted in the display cases. At least none that I was aware of. I was passed onto the manager to take my order. It took a little time because I'm pretty sure she also decorates cakes and some people were waiting on them but I eventually got my order in. A 9" Oreo cake (for up to 16 people) with whipped cream exterior and birthday message is about $75. I added on a tres leches on a whim - they sold out early but a new batch just finished so I got one straight from the kitchen - was roughly $10. Receipts are old school, orders taken on a paper pad with a carbon copy given to you. I've had a number of tres leches cakes before and this is one of a kind! Deliciously moist, whipped topping - and the cake is halved. In between, they put fruit in there! Plus a maraschino cherry on top and cinnamon dusted over it. It was nowhere near "too sweet" and I rather enjoyed it. A lot. In fact, I'm thinking of calling in to see if I can get some for the party for the adults. My picky daughter loved it. Overall, I have a pretty good impression of this bakery and I'm looking to trying more items over time.

We had the tandoori momos, papdi chaat, and paneer tacos for appetizers. The tandoori momos were simple on the inside - just paneer, but the tandoori coating was highly flavorful! The papdi chaat hit the spot on a hot day - you know they're doing it right when the potato to papdi ratio is just perfect. Our favorite was the tacos - the paneer was packed with flavor. It was one of those apps where you take one bite and you're just amazed - crunchy, soft, zesty perfection. For entree we shared the paneer tikka baked in the clay oven. This came hot in a sizzler with onions, green peppers on a bed of charred cabbage (who knew but - woah!). We paired this with some cilantro and tamarind chutney and butter naan - absolutely delightful. The kids also had a cheesy naan with fries (kids meal) which they enjoyed! Lastly, for dessert we had to try one of their unique sweet treats and opt for the date wontons with ice cream. It was a cool concept but not something I'd get again. There are many other desserts on the menu that look great though! Cherry on top of the appetizing food was the kind service. With 3 little ones, I'm always stressed going out to eat at these types of restaurants, but they were very accommodating and welcoming of my family... made my experience that much better. Will definitely be back!

I've ordered twice from this Rita's franchise, once with the Rita's app and once without, and had…read morepleasant experiences during both. This location occupies the space where a Weichert Realtors used to be, and shares a parking lot with a neighboring deli and BBQ restaurant. It has the same parking lot storefront as the Piscataway location with no seating. This franchise run by Tastee Treats LLC opened sometime earlier this year but with very little fanfare. I didn't even notice it until I saw a Rita's trailer parked at the corner of Central and 27. What surprises me is that the franchise owner chose a location diagonally across the street from the Luigi's Italian Ice which shuttered less than a year ago due to volatile seasonal demand. Rita's outdoor locations typically only operate half of the year during warm weather months, so this location will probably be no different. Although accessible by crosswalk, the food service businesses on this side of Middlesex Avenue have been historically prone to short lifespans: none of the original/previous tenants (La Rosa Chicken, Bigby Coffee, Burgerim) lasted for more than two years, and their replacements have yet to remain in operation for more than two years.
