It was a nice stop after a big meal. We were craving some ice cream and saw this place. We got four flavors. They are all wonderful. I got blueberry yogurt and dark chocolate. My partner got strawberry and coffee. They are all good. The person here is quick. The place has a lot to offer. If you crave something sweet on the road, you should come and give it a try.
A local favorite for anyone wanting a delicious dessert after a long day or after a meal. The homemade flavor is one to savor. The two girls working behind the counter were in great spirits, making our experience feel special. The sweet scent of freshly made ice cream made me want to try every flavor. I settled on the rose petal and caramel. From my picture, I couldn't wait to try the caramel scoop haha. If you're not looking for ice cream, I also recommend the esquite or chicharrones.
This place is a really cute and colorful ice cream shop, with a lot of variety to choose from. I enjoy their Agua Frescas and recently got a root beer float that really hit the spot. The whipped cream on top was slightly coconut flavored which was a nice surprise. The staff who work there are pleasant and helpful. Overall this is the perfect spot for a sweet treat on a hot day!
I was out to grab a toothbrush since I'd forgotten mine on a recent trip to the area and this provided the perfect opportunity to check out La Michoacana. I'd spotted them on a previous visit and knew I wanted to check them out. My fav dessert in this wine region is the rice pudding at Bistro Jenty in Yountville, so I knew I would try the rice pudding paleta here. It did not disappoint. Perf little summer treat on a warm night. Highly recommend! Service was fast and friendly!
Just moved here and I am so glad I found this place. I'm originally from Southern California and this is the only place that has snacks like from back home. Takis esquite was sooo good, usually Takis con queso is mt favorite but this might be my new favorite
This place is across from a fruit stand. The store inside looks cold and institutional and has a bad smell. There was only one worker there and no other customers. They have a ton of flavors but many of them are too exotic to understand and there were no descriptions of the flavors. The lady behind the counter couldn't articulate the flavors so she allowed us samples. After trying two or three flavors, I felt obligated to buy something so I purchased a passion fruit bar which had nice crunchy seeds but tasted very similar to orange juice. My husband enjoyed their custard ice cream bar that tasted to me like condensed milk. It was too sweet. Most of the items are very sweet for anyone who is trying to control their sugar levels. I was hoping to find something that wasn't too sweet but this place is not shy about adding sugar. The prices are 3.50 each bar which is not cheap for a small bar of juice. The popsicle sticks are too short and we almost dropped one. If you want something cold and sweet and love very sweet treats, then this is a decent place but it does have a bad smell inside the shop. Outside are some wooden benches where you can enjoy your sweets.
Paletas are basically just really amazing popsicles but that's just one of many wonderful things you can get here. Those are what I however come for and one paleta in particular.... Rice pudding! I know, I know, that's so random and strange but the flavor is just absolutely incredible and the texture is amazing. As soon as I eat it I wish I had more but I'm really glad that they are not super close to me otherwise I would be here all the time. Hubby always gets their lime paletas and raves about them, and both of us have tried their ice creams which were delicious as well. Service is always friendly and fast and prices are excellent. Parking is a little iffy in the front but there's a wonderful parking lot on the side that makes access really easy. I love this place!
My first time here. Such a beautiful day. The service was excellent. The ice cream sundae with banana.
Best spot in Sonoma for authentic Mexican ice cream. They're also open until 10, which is a big plus for me, I often get late night sweet cravings. My favorite ice cream is the guayaba one, soooo yummy! I was craving some esquites & was excited to see they sold them, my cravings were 100% satisfied. Service is always extremely friendly, love this place!
Passed by this ice cream shop Thursday afternoon on the way back from wine tasting and my friend said Mexican ice cream was good so we had to make a stop. The shop has a plaza of parking so it was super easy to find parking as it was not busy. The outside of place was really colorful and probably what caught our eyes when driving by. Inside the shop there were a few tables for seating and one worker. She was super nice, patient, and served customers very quickly. Samples were allowed and they had many unique flavors!! I tried gansito, cajeta caramel, coffee, strawberry cheesecake, and chongos custard and decided to get a double scoop of the first two! The gansito was like a chocopie and Twinkie mix and caramel was super creamy and rich. Double scoop was $5.50
Maybe I didn't order the right thing, but the ice cream was just okay. My friend told me this place is popular, but she did tell me that she doesn't go here for their ice cream. Instead, she orders one of their other snacks which I probably should've gotten. I got the coffee almond and pistachio ice cream and it was just okay. Maybe I need to make a revisit and try one of their snacks.
I love this place! I love coming into an ice cream place with bright colors and great decor. It is inviting and very aesthetically appealing. I usually go for their banana split. But choosing different flavors each time. You must try their pistachio ice cream, it's unique and different from any other place. Their service is fast and friendly. I love that they are family friend and tend to our needs. Although some workers don't speak English, we try are best to communicate to get what we need. This time we got a banana split with pistachio, strawberry, and cheesecake. We topped it with coconut flakes and peanuts. Yum! Definitely a place to go with the kids! read more

Located in the old part of Sonoma, this local ice cream shop serves a wide variety of delicious ice cream and other fabulous treats. For freshly made ice cream, their prices are very reasonable and the portions are generous. The shop is small so seating is very limited so keep that in mind when you visit. read more
The perfect late night sweet treat! Strawberries and cream and nutella ice cream in a waffle cone! I passed by this ice cream shop a few times and was intrigued by the cute exterior paint and lights outside. The server was nice and provided samples of the soft and flavorful ice cream. There's a great variety of chocolatey and fruity flavors as well as May ice cream bars and agua frescas. read more

Located in a small shopping center w/ free parking. There are so many options for popsicles or ice cream. The popsicle have sliced fruit in them and taste so refreshing. The ice cream is creamy and smooth. Both options are refreshing for a hot day in Santa Rosa. They let you try different ice cream flavors. Great customer service. read more
Very friendly staff and have tons of variety of ice creams to choose from. Their paletas are so refreshing and you can tell they are made with fresh fruit. I love all ice cream but some of my favorites are strawberry cheesecake, walnut & their cappucino. My husband prefers their Mangonadas that are also delicious and love that they had little chunks of mango on top. Open late in the summer which is great since it's so hot. Prices are a little high but expected since everything is getting more expensive plus it's worth it since you can tell the ingredients they use are fresh. read more

My family and I visited this ice cream parlor last week. The ice cream was FABULOUS! I had a scoop of the mango sorbet and the rose ice cream. The mango was perfect. The rose was a bit on the sweet side, but was very unique and went well with the mango. My husband had cookies and cream and mint-chocolate chip ice cream... they tasted extremely fresh, like they had been freshly churned. The reason I'm giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 is because when my husband asked about ingredients the woman behind the counter simply told him that there were no ingredients. Either she didn't want to find the ingredients or they really don't carry ingredients, either way that's not okay. I have an allergy and really needed to know about ingredients -- I decided to risk it. Overall, the ice cream was very good, the place was very clean, and the girl was very nice (not helpful, but nice). read more
Friggin' DEEEELICIOUS Mexican ice cream and the perfect after dinner stop while out in Sonoma!!! I came here after having some very unimpressive Mexican food. Luckily, this ice cream was SUPER impressive though! You can't miss their colorful little shop as you drive down the Sonoma Highway. The building is painted in very bright colors and it has an extremely welcoming atmosphere. They have tons of delicious Mexican ice cream flavors as well as some traditional favorites. The staff is courteous and quick. I sampled a few of the goodies until my heart finally settled on their scrumptious rum raisin. It's nothing but sweet and creamy things going on in here, folks (and yes, I'm talking about ice cream!). Prices are extremely reasonable and the scoopage game is on POINT! Massive scoops are given. That was one hell of a scoop that they blessed your girl with, and you best believe that I devoured that thang all the way 'til the last drop (STILL talking about ice cream... damnit!!!). They also have fresh fruit bars, ice cream bars , and agua frescas. They even have a specialities menu available! So many choices at La Michoacana. I will DEF be back to indulge in more of their goodies soon. read more

After wine tasting, my group of three wanted dessert before heading back to the city. Peter L mentioned La Michoacana, so we headed here on Saturday, March 11th around 5:30pm. *3 Scoops: Mexican Vanilla, Pistachio, Tequila *Mango Fruit Bar *Horchata *Mangonada ($5.50) I got the mango fruit bar. Way too sweet for me. I wanted to taste more fruit than sugar. The ice cream was pretty good. I actually liked the mexican vanilla the best. It was creamy and had great vanilla flavor. I'm a functioning alcohol (at times), but I thought the tequila consistency was too runny. I'm not a big pistachio fan, so I thought that flavor was all right. Peter liked it though as I think that's one of his favorite ice creams. I didn't really try the drinks, but everyone seemed to enjoy them. A fun stop on the way back home. I'd stick to the ice cream and avoid the fruit bars. Especially the mexican vanilla. Great flavor and consistency. read more

After leaving the campgrounds, we decided to grab some ice cream in Sonoma. I had the tequila and pine nut flavors. Really liked the variety of flavors that were available and the taste of the ice cream. Not as sold on the texture, maybe a little soft for my liking but glad it wasn't full of ice chips like I've encountered at other ice cream shops. Also liked that it wasn't overly sweet. Nice and refreshing on a hot day. read more
I have always wanted to visit this place because of how beautifully the outside is painted. Such a well crafted ice cream shop. It's reflection in my opinion represents a Spanish style culture which gives visitors coming into Sonoma a lot of our heritage of Sonoma county and California. I work at the fairmont quite often as a nanny especially during summers! I don't work as often with older kids so when I showed up to a 12, 9 and 4 year old I had to get a little more creative of coming up with a fun activity for them. Fortunately their parents were pretty much up for any form of entertainment for them. I decided to walk to the ice cream shop with them since it's quite close...about less than a half of a mile..so .03 miles. So close and such a great thing to do with a group of kids! The only downfall to this cute little joint is it's right by the highway which makes me a little nervous sitting with kids outside because cars can pass by pretty fast. I had one of the "exotic" flavors and omg it was absolutely delicious. Nutella is one of my favorites and this place has the best Nutella ice cream! I topped mine with caramel and rainbow sprinkles on a waffle cone. It was delicious! The other ice creams (all in waffle cones as well) were coconut and mint chip. They finished every bite! Such a cute little joint! read more

If you're an ice cream lover like you then this needs to be under your ice cream destination list! They have interesting ice cream flavors, Mexican Popsicles, and Agua Frescas. I highly recommend trying the Mamey. read more
Yummy ice cream shop! They even had mangonada but I opted in for ice cream since it was so hot. They're very good with making sure only a few people were in the store for safety measures and everyone wore a mask. I really enjoyed their mango and strawberry cream ice cream! Delicious fruit flavor with real bits of fruit in it! Also, loveddd the custard flavor one! I'll be back for you :) read more
