From the sweet or savory treats to the staff, I had a great experience. I sampled a few ice cream flavors and everything was so good it made it hard to decide. They have so many choices for everyone! I do wish they had the prices listed. read more

This place is super cute! If you are looking for authenticity, this is where you want to be! This little shopping center is full of authenticity. It seemed like Mexico's version of a "China Town" or "Little Italy" in Hoover. I have not seen anything like this around here. My friend Tina and I tried Mexican sweets here, and I also had a snack of the Crazy Doritos. This place is very whimsical and cute. Perfect for kiddos and families. There is a ton of space too. They have ice creams galore here. It was hard for me to choose! I went for the prettiest one I saw and that turned out to be the Birthday Cake flavor. It was delicious! Tina had the mangonada that looked very good. I was wanting a salty snack too, so when I saw the Dori-Lokos or "Crazy Doritos" I knew I wanted to try it. The lady working there asked me twice if pork skins was okay for her to top onto them. I said sure. Little did I know what I was about to experience! They were actual pork skins that were like a cartilage or jello like texture. I assumed they would be like the crispy bagged variety you see in stores. It was an experience for sure! I liked it, but I probably would not order it again. The Crazy Doritos were also topped with a sort of nut that I liked, cucumber, and hot sauce. I just can't believe I was not in Mexico when I came here. I'm really glad we have places like this that can make some people feel like home and allow other to just have a different experience. It sure was memorable! read more

wonderful hospitality and amazing ice cream / prices. highly recommend going here............

My daughter and I loved La Sobresita! This place is a hidden gem. We had many questions and the sweet girl behind the counter patiently answered them all. Yes, their popsicles are made with real fruit--you can see the chunks of fruit and it was hard to choose just one. In the end I picked a water based coconut (there are also cream based varieties). It was fabulous! I also wanted to try the strawberry Agua Fresca, which was refreshing and delicious. My daughter and I tasted several flavors of their delicious ice cream as well. The server was patient even though my daughter couldn't decide what to pick because there was a big variety. She also let her taste the boba beads to see which flavor she wanted for her drink. We can't wait to go back! read more

Such a cool place. I have a thing for chili mango and not a lot of places have them for obvious reasons.....but I can always satisfy my craving here! Lots of varieties of ice cream and popsicles. Probably a lot of other good stuff too....I just don't know about them! I do wish they have a menu with more details on them.....and seeing some prices really wouldn't hurt either, ha. For example, I would love to know what people are eating that's in that Dorito bag.....Dorito chips and..... what?? That's okay. If nothing else, I will stick with my chili mango and be plenty happy! read more

Great treat at an amazing price. Service was fast and helpful. Lots of dairy-free options.

Great place to grab some ice cream or popsicle. Seating is very limited inside and out. My daughter got the bubblegum flavored Popsicles I think it was a bit too much for her because she really didn't need it.. read more

This place is too cute and amazingly authentic. I came here with my family as we had gone out to spend some quality time shopping and eating. We came here after the mall to try it out and we were so pleased! The ladies working there are so sweet and patient. I was able to try the ice cream flavors if I wanted too but just picked some that sounded good to me. We ended up getting an esquito, ice cream, pudding, and coconut chunks. It was all great and a really good price. The decor in there is loud but so cute and fitting for the place. I loved seeing that other locals were there with family enjoying the spot. Overall it has such a good atmosphere and brought a lot of emotion to me. I definitely think you should support this spot and try some authentic Mexican treats they serve. They have savory and sweet treats for anyone out there. Please support them! :) read more

What a cool place... pun intended. Fellow Yelper Paul took me here. It can best described as a Mexican Baskin Robbins except instead of 31 flavors they have more like 62. It is located in Hoover across Lorna Rd from Best Buy. It's a little hard to find since they don't have a very large sign out front but once you find it, you won't forget the bright paint outside. There is ample room inside with bright colors and lighting. Their paintings and decorations remind me of a kid's fun playroom. There are traditional large coolers that contain a myriad of popsicles. But what makes this place unique is that in addition to their large selection (think Steel City Pops) of ice cream flavors, they also have popsicles like chocolate banana and guava! Oh they also have shaved ice (think Bahama Bucks) and banana splits. The picture of chocolate covered banana split on the wall was really enticing. If you're not in the mood for anything cold, you can just get a traditional Mexican soda and order some nachos or fresh cooked churros. Paul tried the shaved ice with tamarind. It wasn't my cup of tea. I love tamarind as a spice in cooking but it was a little too strong for me as a flavor in shaved ice. They also added chille to it so it had a really good kick. I wasn't as adventurous and just tried their guava popsice. It was surprisingly good... seeds and all! If you're the adventurous type, this is the place for you. If not for anything else, just check this place out and see all the different "flavors" available. read more

Love this place! They offer a wide variety of unique sweets and snacks. The popsicle options are amazing. One freezer is filled with popsicles that are made with cream and another has popsicles made with water. Each freezer had about a dozen different flavors. Some of the more unique flavors are the pine nut popsicle and the raisin popsicle. All of the popsicles are made on site. I tried the lime popsicle with chili sauce in the center. It was the most unusual combination of flavors that I have ever tasted! The lime was super tangy and the chili had a mild spice to it. It caused me to make some crazy faces. I was on the fence on whether I liked it or not, but by the end I couldn't get enough. It was great, and I'm ready to explore other flavors. La Sabrosita is rooted in it's Mexican heritage. Some of the traditional Mexican desserts include Churros Rellenos (fried dough rolled in sugar and cinnamon), Diablitoes (shaved ice with tamarino sauce) and Mangonada (fresh mango with chili seasoning). This place is legit! read more

This is truly a hidden gem in Birmingham. I got the elote prepared in a cup and their homemade strawberry drink. Both were incredible and I would encourage anyone in the area to try it out! read more

It's a bit overwhelming when you walk in. The menu board has all types of flavors and items,but you have to go in knowing exactly what you want. The popsicles are delicious and they have them categorized by creamy textures or as a water ice. We did try their mango and strawberry sorbets. My gosh, they were delicious. We also ordered fresas con cream which is strawberries in a sweet cream, but they were out. I wish that they would give some descriptions as to what their menu items are. I'm Hispanic, but their menu is geared towards the Mexican palate and you pretty much have to know exactly what you're ordering otherwise you end up asking the person behind the counter what each item is. It would also help if they had items prices so that you don't get sticker shock when you go to pay. read more

This my favorite quick stop for popsicles. They are BETTER than Steel City to me. People are sleeping on La Sabrosita . Go check them out. They are right across the street from Best Buy in a bright pink building. My favorite is the strawberry cheesecake ice-cream & the strawberry & mango popsicles. Everything is fresh & homemade. They even have nachos & Mexican corn. They also have the chilli spiced fruit. The signs and menu can be a little overwhelming bc it's in Spanish, but they are really nice at explaining whats what for you. read more

La Sabrosita is hands down best ice cream in Hoover. This was my first time to La Sabrosita in a while and it was just as good as always. They usually have a small line, but your order is taken in a minute or two. Their ice cream flavors are always different. I got the banana split today with snickers, birthday cake, and strawberry cheesecake flavored ice cream. I love that there are actual chunks of the flavor in them. It's a little pricy, but you pay for what you get. read more

This Mexican Ice Cream and treat shop is amazing! Pine Nut ice cream may be the best thing I've ever put in my mouth! My husband and good friend disagree, and say that the Tres Leches is the standout. They also offer Mexican candies and snacks, chiccaronne "nachos," fresh fruits, bubble teas, and popsicles. Whether you decide to come for a grown up snack or an outing with the kiddos, this place is sure to please everyone. The friendly staff is accommodating, answered all of our questions, and let us sample several ice creams before we decided on a favorite! read more

They have a treat for everyone here! I don't usually have dairy and was so excited to try their non dairy popsicles. They also have creamy popsicles and icecream. Their popsicles have real fruit which I love and the price is much more reasonable than other similar popsicles chains. I tried the Mango chili which I was told was popular. It was the right mix of spicy, salty and sweet imo but was tired it of 3/4 way through. They also have some Mexican dishes and desserts available. You can also find packaged candy if you're in the mood for that instead. Note that, for the most part, they want cash if you're under $5. read more

So freakishly good. I am hooked on the banana split roll up. Can't wait to try other sweet concoctions. The popsicles and bubble tea look great too. A sweet treat for any time of the year. I wished they delivered! read more

I want to be in a relationship with the treats served at this fine establishment. Get anything. It doesn't matter. It will be twice as good as that other garbage option you were considering.

If you're looking for a variety of items that are all great tasting, this is the place to visit. I have yet to try all of the flavors of ice cream that they offer but the ones i've had are amazing. Also they have different types of freshly made vegetable and fruit juices. read more

Delicious. So much fun to try new flavors and they always seem to have something new. Don't go by the menu. Ask them. They have much more than what's pictured. And they can do some awesome combinations. They have a small kid section as well with a tv that's kind of closed off. It's just a fun place to visit! read more

First time trying this place and was really looking forward to the bubble tea. I ordered the mocha one off waiter and when it arrived the ice and whipped cream was melted which is fine because of the traveling. The problem however was that the boba wasn't even cooked. It was hard and I couldn't even drink my tea. Plus I found a hair at the top of the drink read more

This place has delicious authentic snacks and desserts. Best Esquites (Mexican Street Corn) I have found in metro area.

Everything here is delicious! The people are super nice. It's a great place to have dessert or even lunch. The elotes are great! In my opinion, the coffee is the best flavor of icecream. If you can't make up your mind, order the Tres Marias. You get three scoops, and they can be any flavors! read more

Such a treat to have mexican paletas right next to some of the best mexican food in town (taqueria mexico). My girlfriend and I stopped by after dinner and took home a few pops. Most of them are also served as ice cream as well. We really liked the pinion sp? flavor, it was described as a fruit from a tree. I tried to look it up and it seems like it might be pine nuts, not sure though. We saw another person getting a sundae and it looked awesome. They had it loaded up with fruit like diced mango and banana, definitely had a Mexican flair to it. I was also told they serve sliced coconut with chili powder and something else that slips my mind. They serve savory food as well, although I didn't look too close at the options which were written in spanish. The man working the counter was as nice as you could hope for, basically forcing samples on us. Another plus is the popsicle prices are $2-$2.50 ..compared to $3 at the more well known places in town. I will be back read more

If you are wanting to try some authentic Mexican ice cream you have come to the right place. I have been here once with my parents and we all were really happy with our experience and will return. I think we all got popsicles on this trip (I really dug the strawberries and cream) but we were intrigued by the many interesting ice cream flavors and vast array of options. I took my time and watched what some of the other customers were getting before I decided on what I got. I definitely agree with other reviewers about the friendliness of the employees and the opportunity to sample something before you buy. Give this place a try! read more

I am a fan of Mexican foods! As a native Texan, I long for the authentic foods of my culture. When I get a chance to go somewhere new, I jump at the chance. So, when my birthday weekend rolled around I dragged my friends out to dinner and dessert. The dessert location we chose is La Sabrosita and it didn't disappoint. There were 6 of us and we all ordered ice cream. There were other items that I wanted to try, but I went with the crowd. Looking around, I see a bunch of people with a fruit cup with a chili spice. Looks to be a favorite. I loved the Tres Leche ice cream...it will not disappoint. We also got some churros and they were also amazing. Come here and get something. You will not be disappointed. read more

Friendly, family owned atmosphere. Excellent drop in for a sweet treat. Will return for other items

The chicharrón preparado was ok not the best, I ask one of the workers what kind of flavor was the ice cream I was pointing at, and he start to giggle like if I was asking a stupid question. Just because I'm Mexican doesn't mean i will know all the flavors, in other words.. he had a smart mouth! read more
