They have a really nice caramel sauce and the pecans are salted, so you get that nice sweet and salty flavor and a good crunch. They often have a line, so be aware that you'll probably need to wait a little bit for your ice cream. They have a good amount of seating.

I've had great experiences before, however this experience the worker didn't want to be there. She gave a very audible sigh when I placed my order of a shake. Then she said audibly after blending it and spilling some "this is why I hate making this drink". The milkshake was the cold brew coffee shake. When I got the shake it seemed different, it seems she didn't put nearly enough ice cream. The shake was a cold brew coffee drink with creamer basically. Based on this experience I don't think we'll be coming back.

We had wanted to come here once before when we were out for dinner in McHenry once before, but when we left the restaurant it was raining. We thought, heck, a little rain ain't gonna stop us. But as we started to wend our way through these dark, unlit side streets, the rain became torrential and we turned around to look for main road and lights. So here we were on a beautiful Sunday and came across Rita's and even though we just had a filling lunch, we stopped in. And crazily enough, we got a parking spot right out front. Though the road is very busy and I don't suggest parking on it with kids in the car. Just drive around the corner and park. I had no idea about other parking because we were in an area that we were unfamiliar with. My wife got the black raspberry flavor and I got chocolate banana mixed with campfire marshmallow. Wow!!! So freakin' good, and creamy and delicious. Can I explain how good it was? It was so good that I don't need to compare it. It's packed with flavor but not overly so. The chocolate banana was like eating a chocolate covered banana. The campfire marshmallow tasted like I was at that bonfire. I was in heaven. I'm still in heaven. Why? Because I'm typing this up months later and my mouth is watering as I reminisce about it. Now I want Rita's and there isn't a close location. Dammit. I'll have to go tomorrow and get some. That's how good it was!

They serve the fantastic Chocolate Shoppe ice cream and rotate flavors. In my opinion, this is the best scoopable ice cream out there so I'm so happy they carry it. I love their flavor selection, I believe it's about 31 flavors that rotate so there's something for everyone. What can be improved upon: Mark ice cream as dairy free, GF, soy, etc. to help with dietary restrictions and offer more sundae toppings. I'm hoping this comes in time, since they're still fairly new, they are off to a great start. I look forward to reviewing the Ice Box again when they are more established.

I visited to get a little something sweet after dinner. They have a dozen or so ice cream flavors, plus fudge and chocolates and other candies. I chose to get a milk chocolate caramel and a marzipan fruit. Both of them were great, but I especially loved the marzipan. I rarely eat marzipan, but when I do, I'm always reminded of how much I love almond paste. Yum yum. The people who I was with who got ice cream said that their ice cream was good. I took their word for it because I'm not a big ice cream fan! The people behind the counter were very patient, as some of the people in my group were indecisive. There are just so many great goodies, and it can be difficult to decide what to get! The people at Kilwins get it, though.

This location, in the heart of downtown Lake Geneva, looks similar in many ways, but I felt like it was more spacious. When we were there, they were making several batches of fresh fudge, and the smell was overwhelming and delicious. It took me a few minutes to decide, but the staff were friendly and patient. I ended up with a few different cones: Kilwins Track, Salted Caramel, and Cherry. My biggest complaint? They gave me way too much -- it looked like at any second it was going to topple off the top of the cone. :) All three cones were excellent, and I'd be happy to stop by again.
