“The food is amazing. I'll miss it when I leave Illinois due to the state I'm going to not having one. It's cheaper than McDonald's if you're okay with spending $2 less than McDonald's for 2 people. The staff are really nice and allow you to take your time without getting annoyed. Ive gone through the drive thru twice with the same results. Food is amazing, inside is clean. You don't have to worry about them screwing up your food either. Culver's, you are on the top of my list for best fast food places.“

“This place is all about timing and what employee you get. This time around was amazing. Was it because it was cold and most people aren't trying to eat ice cream? Maybe, but anyways it worked in my favor. Also, I just learned they have horchata and let me tell you something: horchata for the win! The horchata had the winning consistency, flavor, and sweetness to it. I'm excited I have another go to horchata place. The employee we got was super friendly and funny. She didn't rush us, answered our million and one questions and joked around with us. She even suggested ice cream combos. They have so many different flavors you just have to come back because they are pretty delicious. It gives the feel of homemade ice cream. I decided on the arroz ice cream. I absolutely love this flavor. They also serve snacks and tortas. It's more than just an ice cream shop.“

La Joven Michoacana Ice Cream Shop • $
1550 Glen Rock Ave, Waukegan

“Happy to support local family owned businesses. I love that this store has everything that all the other Michoacána ice cream chain stores have, but this is a family owned and ran business not a franchise. So you’re supporting a local family by shopping here and not a large corporation that has many locations all over the country!! ❤️“

“This place is so awesome. I love taking the kids here. They have a bunch of different flavors to try. They have some ice creams that are milk/cream base and some that are water based. They also sell other foods and drinks here like walking taco in a bag and fresh fruit chamoy with tajin. They had baked goods for sale. I ordered the dragon fruit with was good and sweet. It's one of my favorites next to cucumber ice cream. I tried a new flavor that had passion fruit, mango, tropical mix. It was pretty good. The bright colors inside of the restaurant transports you to a tropical island somewhere, and makes you forget it's 40 degrees outside. The service is always so awesome here. If you see a flavor and are curious about it, they let you try it out. I would definitely recommend trying La Michoacana if you're in the area.“

“I've been hearing rumors that the 'tortas' @ Michoacana is really good! So I had to try it, ? it was alright (maybe add some refried beans would make it better ?). The "agua fresca" was delicious ? & the elote ? was kinda spicy, I'm glad I went. With great ? service!“
