Diablito con nieve de mango:)

Their diablito's are literally the best I have every had. Great authentic mexican snacks and ice cream you should definitely check it out!!:))

Estella S.

Yelped a raspados place near my location and this business popped up. I'm glad it did! We enjoyed bionicos and a raspados. The portions were generous and fruit fresh. New experience for me with raspados though.....it was more like a fresh strawberry juice over crushed ice rather than syrups. It was tasty but not what I'm use too. Both very refreshing.

Respados

This is the hole in the wall spot that I wish I could keep secret but today made me realize they deserve all the credit. Perfect for a hot day or even a first date conversation starter. Don't sleep on their paletas & tostilocos. But definitely get a customized respado and you will not be disappointed

I used to come here years ago when I was in middle school and I would always get a diablito, more than 5 years later I finally decided to come back. To my surprise, it tastes exactly how it did back then. I love when the quality of places doesn't go down and if anything just gets better. The señora who helps you is a sweetheart and makes sure she gets your order done exactly how you like it. Definitely recommend!

Cucumber and lime water here it's super refreshing and not to sweet, they also got a lot of variety on ice cream and Mexican candies. Defiantly recommend this place

Mango con chile for $1. Did not disappoint my tummy or wallet.
Cathy N.

I will be going to this hidden gem more often now that I've found it! There are a ton of flavors to choose from and you definitely can't beat the price. I got a scoop of mango con chile and I was not disappointed at all! When she told me it was a $1, I had to ask her again how much it was because its the first time I've had paleta for such a good price.

Catalina D.

Great customer service and clean. The diablito has different favor selection. My choice was diablito de limón and it was delicious. Definitely recommending it to everyone I know.

Today's treat (^_^)

Oh Yelp! You temptress you! Everytime I open my Yelp app at my parent house I see pic of yummy fruits with Chile and limon under places nearby. It only took 1, 2, OK just 1 glance for me to start looking for it. I had errands to do for my dad that day but the picture of the fruits and Diablito was in the back of my mind through the whole day. So when all was said and done I had 1 stop before dropping my Daddy off....La Monarca! The place is quite colorful welcoming us with their bright yellow sign. It is located on the corner of Bellflower and Rosecrans in the center with Royal Thai and Granny's Donut. It is nestled between the tobacco store and the massage parlor/continuously changing business in the center, The lady there is really nice. It was a bit hard to communicate at first, the 2nd time I came she had her son help us. Either way we always get our order through. They have a selection of home made paletas and ice cream de agua or de leche. There's also bionicos, raspados, nachos, chimichanga, aqua de frutas naturales and tons of other yummies that are bliss to your taste buds. PALETAS DE AGUA $1.50 Tamrind, Tamrind with Chamoy, Mango, Mango with Chile, Pepino with Chile, Pineapple, Strawberry, Coconut, Lime and Jaimica PALETAS DE LECHE $1.50 Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Caramel, Pecan, Rice, Cheese, Coffee, Cookies, Mamey, Pistachio, Prunes, Egg Nog, Fruit, Cappuccino and Strawberry with Cream ICE CREAM $1/ Scoop Diablito S$5 M$6 L$7 Mango, Tamrind, Lime, Strawberry, Vanilla, Cookies, Gansitos, Chocolate, Choco Zomarano, Strawberry with Water, Strawberry with Milk, Cheese, Pecan, Pistachio and Mamey My favorite is the Diablito with Mango and Like Ice cream if I get the small or Mango, Lime, Tamrind and Strawberry with Water Ice Cream when I get the large. Each scoop is generously covered with Chile lime sauce and a scoop of real fresh mango bits and Chamoy! Every bite is a burst full of flavor! Yummmay! (^_^) On light days I like to get the scoop of Mango/Lime/Strawberry with Water/Tamrind with Chile on top. The paletas are made fresh with fruit chunks towards the bottom. I would recommend the Mango con Chile, Pepino con Chile, Tamarind con Chamoy or Watermelon! This place is definitely worth stopping by at least once but be careful, you might get hooked on their yummies (^_^)

This is hands down the best Mexican ice cream spot around! Not only is it family owned and operated but the ice cream and other treats are truly authentic. I've been going to La Monarca since it opened a couple years ago and have never had a bad experience... And quite frankly I doubt I ever will. The staff is extremely friendly and very knowledgeable regarding their products, and when they recommend you something it's never a risk because everything they serve is delicious. I highly recommend the diablitos, I get mine with one scoop nieve de limón and one scoop nieve de mango. SO GOOD! The one thing I would probably warn yelpers about is that this place has no AC, which is pretty ironic for an ice cream place, so it gets very hot and stuffy inside but well worth dealing with for great tasting treats.

Strawberry Diablito !
Tatiana L.

My favorite place to get homemade Mexican ice cream! So yummy! I usually order a Diablito de Guayaba y Limón! SO GOOD; if you like sour, sweet, and chile ! Mm mmmm mmm! The best part about this place, in my opinion, is the fact that they make all their ice cream in house ! That's pretty special!

My diablito, I swear looks so much better in person!
Ana D.

I was in the area and looked for a paleteria and found this little place on yelp. So glad I did! Place is small, especially the parking lot, felt like a battle so be alert for any spots! Anywho, I got the diabilito and loved it! I had never had one like this anywhere! First they make their ice cream with fresh fruit. I ordered mine with mango (because I'm traditional I guess) but they let you choose whatever ice cream you want. Their ice cream is water based so it isn't too sweet which is great! Then they put little pieces of fresh mango not just on top but throughout the cup, mixed in the ice cream along with the chamoy. Overall, all really good. Went with my mom and she enjoyed a nuez raspado. I don't like nuez but that was so good! They mix the nuez ice cream with the ice which gives it a great flavor! Especially if you are a person that doesn't like things too sweet like my mom. Definitely recommend this place! I am not from the area, but might just take the drive in traffic for another diablito. If there's a place like this somewhere in the San Fernando Valley someone please let me know!

Top: Gansito Ice Cream, yes, it exists Bottom: Lime Ice Cream, it in Spanish- Nieve de Limon

Service, food and entertainment everything was great for my daughter's celebration…read more I will highly recommend this restaurant. I have more celebrations coming up and I'll definitely keep this place as #1 on my options.

Had the urge to eat some Mexican Seafood. Found this place in the city of paramount. There is…read moreplenty of parking and the restaurant looked very nice from the outside. Entered the restaurant which we were greeted and seated. The host gave us some waters and stated that our server will be here in a few minutes. A few minutes passed, our server handed us some tortilla chips and salsa. I ordered a Campechana cocktail which had a mixture of shrimp and octopus. Ordered a Lengua taco and chicken Mole. Ordered some alcoholic drinks as well. Received our food within 15 minutes. All was very good! No complaints on the taste of food. All was delicious. Pros: -Happy Hour drinks were decent -Plenty of parking -Clean Restaurant which felt old fashion -Live music is available Cons: -Had to keep calling our waitress over to assist us. -Seafood Cocktail was very expensive! Other Restaurants that tasted as good or better would average up to $16-$19. This place charges you $27 which I believe is too overpriced for some seafood cocktail. Dishes were above average pricing. Overall: Wouldn't me my first Mexican go to place due the expensive price for dishes and Seafood and it would not be the last to visit. This place had a good vibe. Ambiance was straight old fashion to the punch. A real Mexican joint without old school vibes.

Stopped here after a quick trip to Northgate Market. Surprised this place had so many reviews, so…read morehad to check it out. My husband and I came here pretty late, I would've liked to try their churros and other desserts that looks super delicious, but wasn't feeling it when we visited. We just opted to get a large horchata to share. I was not really a fan. Their horchata is super, super freaking sweet. I've definitely had better horchata elsewhere. The price and quantity is fair I think, but I'll have to try other things on their menu to see if just the horchata is not to my taste. Interior is very clean and spacious. This place is very well decorated, with art and merchandise around the store. However, it took quite a while before my order was taken even when no one was in front of me. Kind of just awkwardly stood there and took my phone out because no one came to take my order. Service was nice though when someone finally came over to take my order, and I got my drink really quick. There's a little bit of parking available, you may have an issue grabbing a spot on a typical day I think. There is a convenient drive-thru though. Will try to check this place out again whenever I'm nearby, I'm hoping other drinks will be better.
