Ralph's Italian Ices Moves Into New Hazlet Location

HAZLET, NJ — Ralph's Italian Ice's moved into their new location in Hazlet.

The popular Italian ice shop moved right next door from their old location, moving from 1729 Union Avenue to 1731 Union Avenue, according to the Asbury Park Press. They decided to move because a road-widening project made parking too difficult at the old location, according to the report.

Owners Gary and Donna Dorsi bought the land next door and built a new store, according to the APP. This new location has more parking and outdoor seating - just in time for summer!

They will have a ribbon-cutting this Saturday at 11 a.m. at their new location in Hazlet and will have giveaways and a visit from Mickey and Minnie Mouse!

Ralph's Italian Ice started on Port Richmond Avenue in Staten Island. The Dorsis also own the locations in Aberdeen and in Lincroft. This is a beloved local Italian ice chain, featuring unique flavors such as pancake ice cream, rocky road, strawberry margarita for Cinco de Mayo, honeydew melon, cake batter and pistachio. They also have cream ices.
