Ralph’s Italian Ices of Dix Hills

This was a horrible experience. Before I ordered I made sure that they had clear ice for my dog which they assured me that they did. I then ordered what they recommended «cookie craze.» They went to get my order and another employee told me they only had flavored ice for my puppy so I asked for a small cup of water. They told me they didn’t have any unless I purchased a bottle (with a sink right behind them). I then purchased a bottle and as I walked away they cursed at me which they did in front of my daughter. I have never written a bad review before and I will never go back here!

So many choices! ices, ice cream, cream ices, no sugar added choices, shakes just so good and addicting and what makes it worse it that it’s a drive thru. Getting ice cream is so easy… too easy and so delicious. Drive up and someone comes out to your car to ask what you would like. Within minutes a bag of amazingness is brought out to your car and you’re on your way. Thank god this place is open seasonally or else, well, you know what I’m saying.

Can’t go wrong. Great selection of ices. Gotta try the soft serve ice cream. As good as Carvel at a fraction of the price.

I went there this past weekend for something refreshing because it was hot. In terms of menu the shake and ice selectiond was quite typical.
Really, the once cool thing about this place though was that it has a drivethru. I’ve lived near this place my entire life and no idea it had a one.
Overall not much to Unilocal about here, typical ice spot. Go here on a hot summers day and enjoy…

Ralph’s ices are in a league of their own. After a BBQ with some friends, we stopped at Ralph’s on our way out to the bars. They have two different kinds of ices: water and cream. The water is your typical Italian ice. The cream is similar in consistency to a Starbucks crème frappucino. I prefer the cream ices because they are a little icier and lighter than regular ice cream or gelato and thus make me feel less guilty (not that I feel very guilty to begin with). They have about a zillion and one creative flavors of the cream ice. Last night, I managed to sample the following cream ices: pistachio (don’t let the shocking green color fool you– this tastes pure and nutty with big chunks of pistachios), peanut butter and jelly (creamy PB with swirls of jelly), cake batter (bright yellow with chunks of cake and pink frosting, uhhhhh), peanut butter cookie dough (creamy PB with huge chunks of chips and cookie dough), cannoli (oddly minty with chunks of cannoli shell), and chocolate fudge brownie (creamy chocolate with HUGE chunks of brownie). We were (I was) in heaven. $ 2 for a small with 2 flavors.
