About La Michoacana

La Michoacana is a traditional Mexican dessert shop situated in the Dollar Tree Shopping Center at the intersection of Chicago Ave and University Ave. Open late, it serves as a delightful destination for late-night dessert cravings. The menu features a wide variety of treats, including Tostilocos, Aguas Frescas, Bionicos, and Paletas, among many others. The Chicle flavored ice cream is a unique option, tasting just like bubble gum, while Fresas con Crema, a cup filled with fresh strawberries and sweet cream, remains a popular choice.

Despite the great selection of Mexican snacks and ice creams that taste good, some customers have noted that almost none of the workers speak English, which can make interaction frustrating. The shop can get quite busy, with lines that may be confusing. The popsicle line is located near the entrance, while orders for customized items like Sandia Loca or Malteadas need to be placed at the back. Although the speed of service can be slow, many agree that the wait is worth it due to the fantastic flavors available.

In addition to well-known favorites, such as pistachio and bubble gum in a waffle cone, the mangonadas with mango ice cream, topped with chamoy and chili, are also delicious. Customers often enjoy frozen bananas dipped in chocolate with peanuts as a satisfying treat. Overall, La Michoacana offers a fun and satisfying experience, making it a favorite stop for sweet treats, especially after a day at the pool.
