La Michoacana is a popular chain of ice cream shops and paleterías (popsicle shops) that originated in Mexico and has since expanded to various locations in the United States. ### Positive Aspects: 1. **Variety of Flavors**: a wide range of flavors available, including traditional Mexican flavors like mango, tamarind, and horchata, and Cookie Monster 2. **Quality Ingredients**: fresh, high-quality ingredients, which contribute to the rich and authentic taste of the ice creams and paletas. 3. **Authentic Experience**: offers a taste of home for those with Mexican heritage. 4. **Affordability**: it's pretty pricey for ice cream but so are other ice cream places. It was $6.50 for a small Cookie Monster or single scoop. I'll get the $3.99 paleta next time! 5. ** Service**: hit or miss Other michocanas have fresh churros. I wish they had the prices on their items! And it's hard to know what things are not being Mexican read more

Clean and fast paced, rarely have to wait in line which is convenient! I loveee the tostilocos!

I've found an inch long hair in my acai bowl. This place is disgusting and overpriced too! Never coming here again!

First time at La Michoacana in San Pedro after months of driving by - so glad we finally made it in! It's a chain Mexican ice cream shop with so many menu items to choose from - ice cream in a variety of flavors, paletas, elote, juices, nachos and more! I came to leave a review since I noticed the shop wasn't very full and I'm a bit surprised by the negative reviews. Maybe the owners paid attention and made changes, maybe they have new staff. We had a great experience - we were helped almost immediately (a family before us was being helped when we walked in), the employee was kind. We noticed the shop itself was clean and all the unused tables had been wiped down. The ice cream itself was delicious - I had the Ferraro rocher and strawberry cheesecake. My Fiance had the Dubai chocolate and mango with chamoy. It is a bit pricey (but so are a lot of ice cream shops nowadays) - we paid $20 for two orders of a double scoop. I also noticed the posted sign inspection sign was a B, so maybe room for improvement. But I'm so glad to know another local spot and we'll definitely be back for a treat! read more

Lots of yummy choices. Sometimes it's so hard to choose. Kid friendly choices! Very tasty and a good place to return to.

So good always hits the spot! Fruit is always fresh and the staff is super nice! Great on a cold day!

I came in here for an agua Fresca I walked in and waited Didn't see anyone I poked my head to see if I can see anyone in the kitchen There was a lady She turned and looked at me Didn't say anything So I left lol I waited 3 minutes Wouldn't come here Valen verga read more

The service was great ! The ice cream and corn was so good, mouth watering for sure . Will be returning soon. read more

They asked me $8.90 for one scoop of Dubai Chocolate. The attendant changed the price of the icecream 3 times. They do not even know what they sell. There were a couple of fly going around the icecream. Disgusting! read more

Nachos were cold and stale and costumed service was horrible. 10/10 would not recommend even if I was starving.

I've never been here before, but it's supposedly a chain. HUGE selection of ice cream flavors, and the server was sweet. There's also lots of street food here too that I've seen in Mexico (hot Cheetos elote etc) I ordered the mangonada, and it was made with love. Delish!! read more

Large selection of ice creams and paletas to satisfy your heart's desire! Plenty of savory treats too! Parking lot and street parking makes for easy access. Service was quick and helpful! They just celebrated their 1 year anniversary too! Go show them some love! read more

Las muchachas trabajando hoy 07/01/25 a las 8:pm nomás chismeando se la pasan. No paraban de platicar. Por supuesto no tuviera ningún problema con eso si el servicio estuviera bien. Pedí una crepa Dubai chocolate i me hicieron una regular i ya después le agregaron los demás ingredientes ya teniendo Nutella. Cuando nos cobró una muchacha pero ansiosa de regresar el chisme no nos entregó una orden de pepinos locos. Cuando intentamos de hablarle no nos podía escuchar porque la otra no paraba de platicar. Yo tuve que alcanzarlo del otro lado del mostrador si no ahí estuviera. read more

Ordered the fererro rocher ice cream. Absolutely delicious and flavorful. This place has so many flavors of ice cream and other delights such as funnel cake, drinks, elotes, etc. it's like a carnival in a store. Highly recommend this place to others read more

I was just here earlier today 6/4, ALL the employees have horrible attitude and smart answers. This is not the first time I deal with this type of service but today was by far the worse customer service. The snack options and ice cream flavors are usually good but after having to argue with someone about what you're paying for, your appetite goes away. The place could've been a little cleaner but I guess over all it was alright. Maybe management should reconsider hiring friendlier people to work there! read more

Sooo glad we have one of these in San Pedro. I love fresas con crema. Really need to try the ice creams and so many other treats

This was my first time and probably my last. I ordered the esquites. I opened my order, took a bite, and immediately tasted expired dairy. The smell immediately hit my face. I went back to get a new one and I was given expired dairy again in my cup. I told the girl and was given a refund (thank you.) but it was still disappointing. read more

There are so many flavors , too many to name. I don't know why I'm not giving this a five star because everything I've had has been delicious. The one that will bring me back again and again is the coconut ice cream. Dangerously good. If your looking for a few other goodies they have smoothies, Aguas frescas corn, fruit cups, nachos, prepackaged Mexican candies too. Service was good that's how I sampled so many flavors. It's right across from Starbucks so I say support them before "them" we need more small shops for our community's growth ..five stars it is. It really is worth it. read more

This place is so good. There are a variety of different ice creams and paletas to choose from. There are also other snacks to satisfy the salty side too. The person behind the counter was helpful and let me try different flavors. Parking is in a busy shopping center and limited but there is street parking. read more

Haven't been to a Michoacana in a long time. Everything is still how I remembered it. The strawberry drink was delicious! Gotta be my new favorite drink. This spot definitely gets busy but to have a line out the door at 6:30pm is kinda crazy. I figured it gotta be that good. It is but with only three people working? Definitely needs more staffing during rush hour. read more

Yummy! I am so happy my home town got a La Michoacana! We went on the weekend which it was really packed since it was about 80 degrees outside. It was kind of a long wait but not really. I just feel really bad for the workers because the line went out the door and they are dealing with Uber Eats order and customers and there was only 2 of them helping orders while the another worker was at the register. Saw what seen like the manager on duty with blonde hair but she wasn't even helping them which made me a bit sad because they were getting slammed and some people do not have patience. They should hire more people personally because it is really busy here but everything is delicious. I'll be back read more

I love this place! There are so many great and interesting flavors of ice cream, Paletas as far as the eye can see, delicious flans... just awesome. Today was my third time going there, and I tried the Sandia ice cream. So good. I also tried the pistacios ice cream. Not my favorite. I'll double down on the watermelon flavor next time. So far my favorite paleta flavor is the Jamaica, which makes sense. I love Jamaica tea. Super good. They have half a dozen different flavors of flan, and the regular cheese flan is really good, but I've also tried the rompope flan, which is great too with a eggnog flavor. They also have a number of interesting savory snacks like tostadas, hot cheeto esquite, tositi esquite, diabolitos, elote, and the list continues. One of the tostadas on the menu looked like it had pickled chicarones. The afternoons and evenings can be busy, but they worj pretty fast, and it's definitely worth the wait. read more

So far I've been super impressed. I absolutely love their Paletas!! I've tried about 10 flavors, half fruit style, and half desert style. The chunks of real fruit are so delicious. They are sweet without being overly done, still nice and refreshing. The desserty (milk based) Paletas are just as good. The texture is perfect and the flavors are on point, definitely sweeter, but nothing artificial tasting. A friend grabbed an elote, which I snuck a few bites of, and it was buttery, cheesy, spicy perfection. The corn was crisp, sweet, and came right off the cob. Not going to lie, I can't wait to go back so I can get my own. read more

If you can't find the raspado man in ur area then you should just head on over there. I should warn you every time I go there it's always bumping full of people so try to pick up or delivery. I recommend their esquites, mangonadas ,and choco bananas. They have a lot of variety of flavors for the popsicles it's hard to choose just one. They also have churros but every time I have gone they say it's a 8-10 minute wait soooo that's the only downside other than that perfection! read more

I will never go to La Michoacana in San Pedro again. All the tables and seats were dirty, trash on the floor. The staff were not friendly. There are better places to get ice cream. Good luck to the owners and customer. read more

Go here people! This place is really good. The palletas are so fresh and delicious. They have tons of options and everything looks so good. The staff is super friendly read more

This play is an amazing ice cream shop 10/10 would highly recommend. The service was great and nothing went wrong.

Can't get anyone to even acknowledge you because they are to busy talking to customers, or friends. Young 4-5 year olds jumping up & down off of the bench seats, then running through the place, bumping into customers and each other, screaming & yelling at the parents, how they want ice cream ! Yikes, we took that for 10 minutes and we were 2nd in line. Then another person came in and got somehow between myself and the person in front of me ! DONE!! We looked at each other, turned and left. I said "Hadel's Ice Creme" he said Yep! Even though there was a line (8-9 people) They had 3 windows working, we had our ice cream in 15 minutes and 4 quarts to go. By the way, we always spend a minimum of 60-75 dollars because we get a lot to go home with us. To the Owner of this establishment: Please do better training and have a responsible Manager on duty at all times. I was concerned about the kids running around, & that someone might get hurt, & you need either a ticket system or someone paying attention to who's next in line. We Love your Ice Creme, Please do better so Everyone can enjoy it! read more

The girl that over the counter instead of helping out the customers she rather attend their friends that just come in without waiting on line read more

This place is amazing! Every flavor and dish we've tried is outstanding. The fruit flavored ice creams and sorbets taste like fresh fruit. Lots of really unique flavors. Prices are very reasonable--much better than the typical chain ice cream places. Definitely a local gem! read more

The ice cream was actually okay. The girl that helped was the rudest person ever. She interrogated me as soon as I walked in . Then she got mad for ordering only one scoop of ice cream . Then she refused to give me utensils. read more

I've visited this location three times and have walked out without buying anything on two of those occasions. The service is unbelievably bad at this particular location. I've been totally ignored and left standing at the counter with nobody else in the store. Also, handwritten signs are posted inside the store, which advertise various specials, but they are written only in Spanish. I will definitely never go back! read more

The staff here rude asf.. We walked in an the lady was already rushing us to order like Hol on give us a min. She had a nasty lil attitude the whole time she was taking our order like if you don't like yo job don't take it out on us. read more

1 star, I almost never review based on service, but today is different. We walked into the empty store, the lady looked at me and walked off, other lady did the same and had their backs to my husband and I the whole time. They looked and saw we were waiting and STILL didn't help. So no, you don't get my business or any good reviews. RUDE. read more

Too busy for the amount of employees! They tried their best but it's not enough to keep up with the demand. Waited in line for 35 minutes just for ice cream. read more

I come here once a week and I order hot Cheetos with cheese all the time and when I come in they don't overdue it on cheese they put the perfect amount where you still get a crunch out of the Cheetos but today I don't know why but this big lady In a blue shirt she put hellla cheese like too the point it was just a mushy and soggy you don't even want to eat it , I was like whatever ima still eat it because ima feel bad making her redo it but once I leave and on my way home eating the chips the cheese tasted funny it tasted sour and I instantly knew something was off because I come where once a week to get the same thing . I'm already assuming that cheese was from last night and wasn't good and then they just reheated it for the next day , that's why the lady gave me so much cheese , she wanted to get rid of it , but that's disgusting who wants sour cheese. Anyways the point is next time don't play with my food! read more

Horrible service. Not worth the money. Paid with coins, and the attendance was upset. Mentioned I was not coming back and she said I am glad. Just disrespectful and rude. Will not spend my hard earned money there. Will go somewhere else. What kind of business is this? read more
