Best hidden gem in Anchorage Alaska!! This family establishment with deeply rooted origins in Western Michoacan, creates authentic ice cream, Paletas, Mangonados, Aquas Frescas, Esquites & Horchatas and a small selection of food items will pleasantly surprise you with every visit. The staff is super friendly, always smiling, and will gladly assist you in narrowing down the hardest choices, recommend options, and let you sample some of their original ice cream flavors. The store is bright with a beautiful mural, family friendly, they have games for guests to use, free Pac-man, and a large children's play area. This establishment is great after shopping, a long hike, play in the park with kids, or even skip desert at a restaurant just so you can enjoy it here at La Michoacana, the Last Frontier. read more

Perfect for all ages--loved by both our 9-year-old and 70-something-year-old alike! The kids' play area was adorable. We highly recommend!

I absolutely love this place. They have such interesting flavors. Today I tried the eggnog and raisin... I haven't seen that in decades! They make flavors that are very unique and the techniques are specific to Mexico. Some are water based and other are milk based- be sure to ask if you are unsure. This is great if you have any sensitives. Its also nice that they have both ice cream, palette, deserts and some limited meals as well. Also, the art and play area as I mentioned previously make.this place very comfortable for the entire family. And just one more thing....I take issue with the person who said these lovely people are racist towrd white people. That is absolutely not true. Anchorage is a very mixed city and the customers that go here come in all shapes in sizes. You will be treated in the manner you deserve. read more

Ok so this place surprised me with how good their ceviche was. It was very spicy, loaded, and very decently priced. There's not many food choices but loads of sweets. My favorite was that coconut drink! It was super coco-nutty flavored without the weird texture of coconut. read more

This spot opened a little over a month ago, and I was able to check it out within their opening week. Service was on point for only have been open a few days, and it seemed like all the options on their menu was available. I actually visited twice in one day to try a few things on the menu. I am excited to have something not only new, but different in town. Mexican ice parlors typically sell a variety of treats & snacks; this one is no different with a wide selection of paletas (popsicles), scooped ice cream, aquas frescas, and different snacks including esquites, mangonadas, tortas & tostadas. Pretty much everything on the menu including the paletas are made in house. I ordered an Oreo paleta, mangonada, horchata & esquites. The mangonada was the best I've found in Alaska. Loaded with chunks of mango, chamoy & tamarind candies. Their mango ice cream is also made in house, and was so flavorful. The horchata also was some of the best I've had in Alaska. A lot of the time the horchata I've had tastes watered down before the ice melts, and you can tell that once the water is added into this recipe it doesn't cut down the distinct flavor. My son loved the paleta, which he rightfully so did not let me taste. The esquites was a great sized portion. My only complaint was that I wished they drained the corn more & there was more spice to it, but I'll know to ask for it next time. The space here is absolutely gorgeous with lovely artwork, and a play area for kids. I am very excited for this new addition, and think it's a lovely spot for a treat especially for families. I will be back to try more of the savory options, and hope they plan to potentially add more food items to the list! Definitely head over to the Campbell Creek area to treat yourself to something sweet! Summer is right around the corner, and this would be a great spot to end a day outdoors! read more

Thanks to Elite Yelper: Daniella, I was reminded this Mexican ice cream parlor is finally open! They are located just past Taco Bell on Tudor (coming from midtown). Their building faces "L & L's." La Michoacana's space is bright, clean, and large. Beautiful murals and art pieces decorate their walls. They have an ample amount of table/chairs and even a pretty amazing children's area off towards the back. I most enjoyed their service which was welcoming and informative. I never had to guess what anything was. La Michoacana makes all their items fresh, to include their icecream. This visit we ordered a gazpacho, mangonada, tosti elote, and a mango paleta. We loved everything! We can't wait to be regulars! Highly recommend. read more

I'm not meaning to sound disrespectful for voicing my thoughts of being dissatisfied with pricing and such but of course I get all that pricing and know it's homemade and that the business just wants to make money but please understand from my point of view and my family I was with that I had treated that day even noted the bill being higher than usual because I hadn't even gotten the chance to input a tip, it had just told me to pay the price on the screen which I had done. I don't even want the tip back, I am just dissatisfied with this whole experience and have not and will not come back. Thank you. read more

You can find this shop in a shopping strip on Tudor with the Ghost Kitchen. Super cute and colorfully decorated little ice shop. The owner(s) of this place put a lot of thoughts and creativity into this place. You can tell by the decorations along with the murals. They do have some food you can order as well. My 7 years old got the Cookie Monster ice cream, the 5 years old got the strawberry popsicle, and I got a 16 oz horchata and a fruit cup. Came to be $30 with tip. 7 years old enjoyed his ice cream; the 5 years old was not used to the fresh ice cream and wanted me to take the seeds out of the popsicles. I took a bite of his ice cream and his older brother finished it. It was quite fresh and delicious. Horchata was delicious and fruit cup was fresh and a good size for $8.99. Kids enjoyed playing in the play area. Not many customers so the girls working at the counter were attentive and friendly. Would recommend and will come back. They have a loyal stamp card as well. read more

Finally got to go here, I've been wanting to try the strawberry Fresca drink. They don't have it when I asked if they had it. Lady said they made it fresh and it changes daily. Mentioned a horchata, hibiscus, and a strawberry with red and green apple. I asked her if she would recommend the strawberry one or the horchata one. She got all attitude towards me, "idk..." and gave me the side eye and didn't acknowledge me at all... I thought it was quite weird thinking ok maybe a bad day. So I said horchata. I can usually tell if I like the place through their horchata. She asked me what size said two sizes. To be honest, my brain doesn't work as well anymore as I've aged and I kind of have to see it so I asked to see the big one. She got angry because the way the grabbed the cups each cup I am telling you cups went flying as she grabbed the cup. She grabbed it so angrily idk what the problem was and I was so excited to try the place. I honestly when customer service isn't happen for me I usually always leave but I've tried so hard to make time to come here I wanted to try it and I figured I wouldn't be back unless the horchata was AMAZING. I noticed she didn't give me my drink but the customers next to me were given their ice creams. She walked mine to the counter. Asked me how I wanted to pay, I said card. It was from $7.95 to $8 something. I can't remember exactly but it was a BIG JUMP.... I was like nope... I'll pay cash. She asked me if I wanted a stamp card and I said no.. because I kind of knew I wasn't going to go back. Horchata isn't my style. It's okay but it's too cinnamon-y for me and too expensive for what it was. I looked at another comment and I noticed it was geared to racial issues. Now I am Filipino but I have white in me. My skin is white as day. But idk if it was racial or anything but it was enough for me to not get a stamp card because I pretty much knew I wouldn't be back. Kind of disappointed to be honest. I was excited to get to this place and I haven't been this excited to do a review on this place. Looked like my kind of place. Sad... read more

Finally a piece of Mexico that is needed for the summer! The fun colors definitely remind me of Mexico. The ice cream is said to be made in-house and the fruit tastes so sweet. There are ice creams and popsicles that are water based and milk based so there are some gluten free options. And the flavors of ice cream are very topical and fruity. The flavors of popsicles are unique and creative, perfect for a sweet tooth. (I saw a fruity pebbles flavor :O) This paleteria (ice cream parlor) is unique as it has a small kids corner where kids (probably for ages 3-10) can play connect 4, pac-man and more. I got a magonada with scoops of mango, lime, and passion fruit, and it was the best. Only thing I would have like different is more chamoy, I like it spicy. read more

Loved the food, the experience, and the ambience. Service was prompt and helpful with menu choices. Delish food! Love their queso!

Ordered mini pancakes and nachos. Both were amazing. They had amazing selections. And plenty of seating. A play area for little ones.

Adorable, clean and very yummy! We had the the jamón y queso torta plus 2 different types of ice cream. Discount for paying in cash. We will definitely return. read more

Seemed kind of racist towards white people. I was served less ice cream that even a co worker looked at her funny. They also served the people in line behind me first before me... read more

Friendly local family business and excellent ceviche. Please check it out. You will not be disappointed.

The food is SO good, I am OBSESSED with Tostilocos and was so glad that they have that on their menu. They do add pineapple, which is new to me, since California where i am from does not make it that way, but I still enjoyed it. it adds a bit of sweetness to it. I also tried their Horchata and it definitely tasted authentic. i have been thinking about their snacks ever since. I will definitely be going back. Service was good as well, i went on mothers day and they were handing all the mothers a rose. they also gave me normal tortilla chips for my tostilocos instead of the salsa verde ones and when i mentioned it to them, they were very apologetic and did not hesitate to make me a new one. read more

The service and vibe was amazing, highly reccomend it if you want a dessert/snack. Brings me memories from back home just the traditional mexican culture. They have alot of options to choose from as well. read more
