This place is ridiculously expensive. Don't come to this Michoacana. It's a theft!!!

Simple and nostalgic! I always order the Elote corn. They use good quality corn and majority of the franchise uses the smaller sweet corn, which is what I prefer over the bigger yellow corn.

This place actually give you alot of elote and it's super delicious not like other places that are so expensive and they don't give you enough corn just water

I've been by this place a bunch of times but never had the time to walk inside until today. And now that I've tried it, I can say I will definitely be back.Their frozen fruit/other bars alone are incredible. There are so many fun and interesting flavors, and they look handmade with real pieces of fruit or other ingredients inside. My partner for the elotes which were creamy and spicy but delicious. I had the horchata which doesn't look like much in the photo but it was amazing. It was sweet, cinnamony, and creamy. They added a little bit of ice to make it perfectly chilled and refreshing. I would absolutely get the horchata again, but I would love to try the frozen bars as well. The price is great and I absolutely recommend it!

I try to avoid this place at Des Plaines, they have good Ice cream, however, this place has a very bad customer service. on 5/28/23 I had to waited 35 minutes just to get an Ice cream, the people who works there are rude maybe they don't get paid enough that's why they don't a good customers service. On top that of that, this place charge you extra if you used your debit card. From now on I will be going to Oberweis ice cream in Park Ridge, good ice cream and excellent customer service.Trato de evitar este lugar en Des Plaines, tienen buenos helados, sin embargo, este lugar tiene un muy mal servicio al cliente. el 28/05/23 tuve que esperar 35 minutos solo para obtener un helado, las personas que trabajan allí son groseras, tal vez no les paguan lo suficiente para no saber como tratar a sus clientes. Además de eso, este lugar te cobra extra si usas tu tarjeta de débito. De ahora en adelante iré a los helados Oberweis en Park Ridge, buenos helados y excelente servicio al cliente.
My husband and I were looking for frozen yogurt, and we came across La Michoacana. When we walked in, we were greeted by bright, warm colors. There were no menus available. There were three screens above the service area that were blank, so I'm guessing this is where the menus normally are. After checking out the flavors, I got two scoops of ice cream in a waffle cone. I got the chocolate chip and the mint chocolate chip ice cream flavors. These were the biggest ice cream scoops I have ever seen. They easily gave me six regular scoops of ice cream. The flavors were very rich and sweet, exactly what I was looking for. You get a value for your money. The parking lot is a pain to try and navigate. There is not enough parking for all of the businesses. When we left, we were blocked in by someone double parking to use the convenience store. The food and service are pretty good, and La Michocana comes highly recommended.

It's difficult to park here and ordering can be challenging with the number of options available, but the deliciousness of the product speaks for itself. The staff is helpful to help you narrow down your options, but there is no need to ask them what the best flavor is because they'll tell you that they're all good (which is probably true, I haven't tried a flavor I didn't like yet). In addition to the creamy delicious ice cream options that come in enormous portion sizes (I think a 2 scoop should really be considered 6 servings), the yogurt with fresh fruit that they have is really fantastic. I wish I'd discovered this many years ago as an alternative to the standard parfait that you find everywhere else. The decor is on point, themed nicely where you really feel like you're enjoying a delicious product in a brightly lit and colorfully decorated restaurant.

i tried to order for my friend and i and it felt like an uphill battle. we wanted to pay together, one elote, one hot cheeto elote, and horchata, as stated by the menu, and they could barely understand me. i understand this place is more culturally hispanic as i am hispanic myself, but i feel that there should at least be one english-speaking employee in all businesses considering we are a mainly english speaking country. once i went to check out, they made the two elotes separate orders, which i clearly stated i was paying for both and the horchata. not only that, but i did not get my horchata because at the last minute, a translating customer told me they were out of horchata. i then walked to my table out of frustration with both eltoes, and one of them clearly spilled, i asked for a new one due to half being gone, and they told me id have to pay. you'd think i'd get some generosity considering the inconvenience of this all. moral of the story, i never got my horchata.

I liked this location a lot. It was cool to see a Mexican ice cream shop, next to a Mexican convenience store, next to a Mexican restaurant all in the same parking lot. They're open until 10pm on the weekdays. Not sure about weekends. It was close to 9pm and my s/o always demands ice cream after a meal like he's my 8 year old child. Nonetheless, it satisfied the craving and very affordable pricing for two cream cones. I am a huge fan of their mangonadas, their mamey and guava ice cream. It's always fresh and very clean and tidy to each location I have been to.
