“Man, this place brings me back. I was born and raised in Kuwait, where this place originates. I have fond memories of hanging out at the local Juice Time with friends or siblings after a long day of spending time together and hanging around. I'm happy to say that this place brings those nostalgically wonderful memories back to me in the form of delicious beverages and decadently sweet desserts. Let's talk a bit more about the food options. As Kuwaitis, we're known in the Arabian Peninsula for incredible cuisine and sublime dessert recipes. At this place, you can take a waffle or crepe, and add lotus, pistachio sauce, kinder, Nutella and whatever else your heart desires. You'll be sure to dig into such a deliciously sweet treat that it'd be hard not to come back for more later. The kunafa, which is a cultural food item from the greater middle east and levantine regions, is so well-perfected here. It makes me happy that my culinary culture is brought to such life and authenticity under the supervision of this location's manager, Ali. There's plenty of room to sit down and enjoy your beverages and dessert, here, but don't be afraid to get that drink to go. I remember growing up I would always pass by the local juice time and say, "hey, some Awaar Galb (drink called heartattack, its healthier than it sounds, I promise) sounds pretty good right now." and I would continue my outing with a newly acquired beverage. Do yourself and favor and try out some food and drink and from this place. They did our culinary culture a solid by bringing this place to the finest city in America.“

La Michoacana Elite Dessert • $$

“First time ever to a La Michoacana and was craving a good milkshake. Service was excellent. Guys were friendly, clean, and fast. I ordered a Strawberry Milkshake--perfect. Not too sweet, perfect texture. YUM! We also ordered a fresas con crema. Súper yummy too. See the pic!! You'll want one! Btw, the smaller cup is the extra milkshake that the guy added for us (-: So happy to come here over DQ any day! Oh! Also, the have Aguas Frescas! They gave me some to taste. Refreshing and tasty too! I'll be back for one of those too!“

“Always go to this location and get wonderful service. Today the girl at the register was kind of rude. I just let it go since every other time all members are super nice and great with kids. Unfortunately this visit wasn't like that. But the cookies are still very delicious.“

“The two persons (I believe young ladies, but wouldn't want to offend anyone not identifying as such) were amazing, composed, and fast. The line on a Sunday afternoon was out the door but they didn't flounder, panic, look rushed, or stressed...I applaud the two working today Nov 20, 22 at approx. 1630 hours. Amazing guest service skills and skill level.Thank you“
