First of all, you cannot beat the price! Everything here is homemade. They have popsicles, fruit drinks, Mexican specialties and more Every time I've been by, there are always a line of folks, but it moves quickly. I've onlyhave their ice cream, so that's all I can speak for... But knowing there's always a line means they are doing a great job. The shopping center is a little sketch, so I suggest you go during daylight hours. Definitely don't pass this place up, it's a hidden gem!! Trust me! read more

Just left from trying for the first time. OMG this Mixed Fruit Agua Fresca is sooooo refreshing!! Mango, Watermelon, and Strawberry.... YUMMY!! Both ladies were super nice and welcoming. Even though there was a slight language barrier, we figured things out together, and she had a bright smile the entire time. The other lady told me she's still learning English, I told her no worries and no rush, she'll definitely get it in no time. Both ladies were full of smiles. I can't wait to go back and try more things! read more

La Monarca Michoacana - Agua Fresca - Watermelon, Mango, Strawberry - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Houston, Texas

The fiancé was looking for a Mexican ice cream place that landed us at La Monarca Michoacana! They have ice cream bars with fresh fruit frozen in them, home made ice cream, and Mangonadas!!! Some of the ladies didn't speak English but they always have someone there who does! I believe they also serve hot foods like elotes, etc. But let's backtrack to that mangonada.. it's all we come here for now. It's frozen in little cups and when you order it, they run a knife through it, add some chamoy and fresh lime juice and it is absolutely delicious and refreshing. You get the sweetness of the mangos, there's definitely frozen mango chunks in it, the salt of the chamoy and a little bit of spice! So so good! Come get one and thank me later! read more

Came here for mangonada and it did not disappoint. Came on a Saturday and there was a long line of people who wanted something sweet and cold for the hot summer day. Mangonadas were $3.75 and very refreshing with tons of flavor. We got 2 palletas - the strawberry and cream and the assorted fruit - both were amazing! All of the desserts are super affordable and will definitely return. I also can't believe there was one so close to where I grew up and I never knew about it! read more

Good popsicles! They are reasonably priced. I am glad I live close by. I am looking for to going back again. Of course, I am taking my ice bag. read more

My friends have picked up ice creams for me from this place earlier. They usually have a deal where you buy 10 paletas and get 2 free. This is also very affordable place where the Paletas are of $2-3 each. I ordered cookies and cream this time and got 2 whole Oreos in my paletas. It tasted awesome. My friend got strawberry and cream and it literally had strawberry pieces in it. I surely recommend. read more

Hidden gem in the area for mangonadas and homemade ice cream. I've stopped here once before and decided to stop again. I purchased two mangonadas especial that came with salsaghetti and gummi worms/bears for $5.50 each. I couldn't resist their arroz con leche paletas, so I picked up two of those as well. Upon entering, the place was extremely clean looking. They lost one star though due to customer service - an employee noticed me as I walked in and left the area for a good two to three minutes before returning without saying a word to me. Overall, the mangonadas were very tasty. They are previously frozen, so it takes a bit of the Houston heat to soften them up. Their paletas are delicious too, but a bit pricey at $2 a pop. read more

This is right next door to our favorite Peruvian restaurant so I had to try it. I always measure a new ice cream place by their coffee scoop. They measure up very well with their almond coffee scoop. I'll be back for more. read more

Excelente servicio, variedad de productos y muy deliciosos... fácil de encontrar y atienden super rápido!

I've been to a few specialty ice cream shops and also a couple of paleta spots. I personally used to go to el Pibe by Crosstimbers area and buy the coconut flavor La Brisa brand. I tried this spot because we had Peruvian food next door and wanted something sweet. I decided to try the mexican cheese flavor, eggnog and regular chocolate. The tongue coatness level is over 100%. It's like eating custardy frozen milk! The flavors for the 3 that we got are on point. I would prefer no raisins in the eggnog but it didnt ruin the flavor at all. I will be back and try their paletas when I am not so full! read more

This place is a gem! Ever since moving to Houston I've been looking for a place to find my paleta fix and I found it here. Each paleta is $2, and if you buy 10 you get 2 for free. They have a mix of fruit ones with ice and others with a mix of cream. Absolutely delicious. I love the fresh strawberry with cream and the icy strawberry. read more

Me & my boyfriend got a Large Elote & Nachos. All for $7.80. The elote was so yummy and flavorful, the nachos hit the spot. The lady in the front was super sweet and helpful. Make sure to know some Spanish :) We will be back to try the mangonada and paletas, they looked good and fresh. read more

I used to go here a lot and every time I had out of town guests I would take them to La Monarca. NEVER AGAIN!!! Rude, rude, rude! The lady working Sunday morning 4/2 was extremely rude, I'm never going back. If you don't like working with people or you are not a friendly person, you should not be behind the counter. Food is ok, but there's better places closer to home. read more

Don't even try coming. I don't understand why people work here if they don't even want to serve people. And don't bother calling to order ahead they have the phone next to the register and don't even bother to pick it up. I thought they might of been busy but I drive up and not a single person in line. Honestly has gone down in service. It's sad. This used to be one of my fav ice cream shops. read more

Easy the best mangonada in town. The flavor of lime and real mango really come through in this one. Their assortment of pops are also amazing. My gf and I love anything fruit-related for the pop flavors! read more

I came here specifically for the mangonada. Anything that looks colorful. I want to try. While waiting for mangonada to be prepared, i was looking at the many ice cream and frozen fruit bars. I got the fruit, cheesecake and butter pecan...the butter pecan was my favorite. The cheesecake mostly tasted like vanilla, and i would have enjoyed the fruit if it wasn't so sweet. Now, back to the mangonada. At first taste, I was not really crazy about it--too spicy. All I tasted was the tajin and chamoy. So I did not eat but a very little, amd put the rest in the freezer. When i finally returned to it, let it thaw out some, it tasted a little better, and I was thinking that I might buy again, but with less tajin and chamoy. But then it hit me: as the mango, tajin, and chamoy melded more together, I was like, Wow! This is delicious! Before, I really could not taste the mango. But the second go round, I tasted all the flavors. I definitely will get again, but will still get with less seasonings. read more

If you're looking for a sweet treat, this is the place! Hands down the best ice cream in the area. I believe it's all natural, and the texture is perfect, just the right amount of cream. read more

Excellent ice cream! Had Red Velvet and Cookies n' Cream which were both amazing. Small is plenty and medium (2scoops) is A LOT.

I loved this place! So much variety and customizable options. You see a lot of mainstream places offering the trendiness of what this authentic ice cream place provides. Clean, great customer service and some indoor seating. At the time we went in all the seating was occupied, but that was just validation that the treats must be delicious. And it was! My little one loved his bubble gum flavored cream pop and o enjoyed my scoop of red velvet ice cream. I plan on returning with my family again! read more

Me encantó el producto, definitivamente lo recomendaría a mis amigos. El personal fue amable y atento en todo momento. Lo recomiendo:)

Super tasty popsicles! Reminded me of my childhood. There are so many different flavors and you can't beat a homemade paleta. The woman behind the counter made sure to tell us about the buy 10, get 2 free deal so we tried as many flavors as we could. The mango and guava flavors are my favorite so far. read more

Best place to satisfy almost any craving (especially those late night ones), plus everything is very reasonable! Can't really go wrong with anything on the menu! read more

La Monarca Michoacana - Elote, strawberry pop, & hot cheetos con queso! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is a true hidden gem!!! All of their ice creams are hand crafted. Small & clean interior, with nice staffs. Reasonable pricing (mine was $2 something) Pistachio cream popsicle - a BIG hit, wasn't too sweet and had chunks of fresh pistachios in there for a kick, very creamy It was a hot summer day so I wanted to try the popsicle first, definitely going back here many times. Update: It's been over a year and I've tried everything on their menu. Mfavorites would be oreo, mango & nuts for the popsicle but their iced ones are good too. Overall you will be more than satisfied with any flavor!! read more

Friendly service, homemade ice cream with wide range of standard and creative flavors like Gansito (after the Mexican chocolate-covered treat), and great aguas frescas! The staffer recommended their Agua de Frutas and offered a sample. It's delicious! (And the place is impeccably clean.) We'll be back often! read more

The ice cream here is stellar! I got the Gansito ice cream and it was amazing! Definitely a throwback to when I was a kid. We got the corn in a cup, but the white corn tasted a bit undercooked. Other than that, it was still pretty good. I want to give it another try, so I'll be back!! read more

Love this place!!! Elotes, nachos, paletas so so deli! Awesome service too and the place is always clean. read more

I was just told by a worker that she doesnt have time to prepare tostios why hire people that cant help customers smh

Went to the Peruvian restaurant next door and popped-in just to see what they offered. I couldn't believe my eyes. Fruit flavors generally not seen north of the border. For the acid test, I tried a coconut ice cream cone. It was good. Next time, will go for mamey. My wife got the pine nut ice cream and that was good too. This flavor concept was beyond my comfort zone and delightfully challenged another one of my self imposed limitations. read more

Perfection at its best. I love this place. Hot Cheetos con queso my mouth is watering.

Not pet friendly. Slow service . Understaffed Unfriendly staff overall Very small location read more

These are Mexican refreshments at their finest from all natural fruit Popsicles with flavors like coconut or avocado to the more traditional cold treats like Tamarindo and horchata, smoothies and fruits in a cup sprinkled withe chili powder. They also serve nachos and every kids dream, an open bag of hot cheetos drowned in hot queso. So if you're looking for the best and most delicious way to cool down in this hot weather, I strongly suggest you try it out. read more

The best snack place in Houston! They have the tastiest apples with chamoy & candy goodies. Delicious! Also the mangonadas have amazing flavor and real chunks of mango. The elote is delicious but BEWARE the sauce to put in it is actually SUPER spicy. I was warned but didn't think it would be too bad. It definitely was! Great place though. Definitely recommend!! read more
