We love the original store in Homestead but my wife and I each had a cone from this location that we were so excited to discover and unfortunately we both got sick shortly after eating it. It tasted good but damn it almost did us in. We won't be going back as the place was very dirty. read more

I stopped twice at this place already and both times I walked out without purchase. The first time was because nobody was behind the counter. Myself and another customer were waiting but there was nobody there and I wasn't gonna break the law with self serve:) The second time 2(!!!) ladies were behind the counter and I was helped ASAP. I asked about their smoothies. They are ice cream mixed with whole milk:) I asked then for their natural juices. Those are fresh fruit blended with while milk. No other milk or options available. If you want to get your sugar and saturated fat on, this is the spot! The place is super cute but there will be no third time, there was just nothing I was interested in unfortunately :( read more

La Michoacana is off the beaten path, standing by itself and surrounded by tax offices and wire transfer shops, in what I would call the inner guts of the foregone Little Havana, and what has become Little Honduras/Nicaragua. This is probably not a nice area to walk around, not because it is crime full, but because there is nothing nice to look at. Only those who work around here visit La Michoacana, as well as the residents of the nearby areas. People may be puzzled to figure out how La Michoacana has survived. But if you stop by, you will figure it out right away. First, the place looks awesome, with lots of original art work depicting pop Mexican art, artwork that is also used as menus. Second, they are extremely helpful, because they are a family run business. And third, they have lots of food available. As far as foods available, this will be elaborate. This place labels itself as an ice cream shop. They sell ice creams, paletas, raspados, and some things I cannot pronounce or don't have the correct word for. Flavors include tequila, jamaica, horchata, mango, etc. Paletas (fruit/ice cream bars) come in arroz con leche, mango, etc. There are many flavors available but unfortunately I can't remember them all. But that is not all at La Michoacana. They also serve tacos, tortas, quesadillas, and something I have never seen, chicharrones, which is a large pork rind covered with all types of meats and vegetables and sauces. Interesting. Everything is made in house, fresh, and daily. But that is not all. Sorry for being redundant, but fresh juices, Mexican sodas, regular sodas are also available. And more importantly, they have a huge collection of Mexican candy. This place could also be a candy shop just by the amount of imported candy available. If you come here for Mexican candy only, you will most likely be equally satisfied. La Michoacana is definitively a look into Mexican culture. Candy, pops, drinks, food, this place is not only foodie heaven, it is also kids heaven. I see how the area has impacted the popularity of this ice cream shop, but this place is Mexico in Miami. And they have paletas. Yes, they do. read more

I lived in El Paso, Texas for 16 years. I used to cross over to Juarez, CH, Mexico when I wanted to frequent a "La Michoacana." I always have loved all their dessert, foods and other "chucherías" (nick-knacks and snacks) that they sell. So when I discovered a Michoacana here in Miami after having been living here over a year, I was ecstatic! My experience here at this location DID NOT DISAPPOINT! It was EXACTLY what I expected it to be...La Michoacana! Everything is just like in Mexico and other locations in El Paso, TX! If you don't like paletas made with milk, you can try the fruit bars without milk as well. I highly recommend the tacos, but even more specifically, the Tacos al Pastor; many places might TRY to make them, but this place gets the flavor correct and oh, so tasty! They also have Mexican Coca-Cola, which in my opinion, is the BEST TASTING COCA-COLA ON THE PLANET! Don't believe me? Try it out! read more

Such a great hole in the wall I've cream place with the best ice cream in miami. I just love this place

This place is honestly just great. It has by far the best I've cream in Miami with incredibly reasonable prices. It's so great that it is run by such caring people and the ice cream is delicious read more

They have the best ice creams, I highly recommend them. Many flavors to choose from. Their nance paletas are delicious.

This is the best ice cream shop in miami. It's located in the heart of little Havana and is small but welcoming. It reminds me a lot of a Mexican store front. It has the yummy candies, piñatas hanging and a huge variety of yummy Mexican ice cream flavors at an amazing price. They let you try flavors if you're not familiar with them. Some might seems strange like the tequila or the cheese and strawberries( one of my personal favorites) but don't be shy to try them out you might en up getting them all!! What's unbelievable are the prices. So so affordable and your supporting a family which is great everyone is super friendly and welcoming. Love how close it is to Brickell and downtown! You can enjoy the view of the sky rises with your yummy ice cream! Enjoy read more

Love the ice cream not the food. If you want real ice cream this is the place in little havena. They gave another one in homestead.

So glad we found this spot ! Me and my boyfriend went in to just get one thing but, decided to stay for food and even left the place with snacks for later. First went in for the chamoyada, they were premade(which I was a little disappointed at first) but found out they made there there and it's ALL natural. I found out they have this nanche flavored ice cream, ITS A MUST.(nanche is a common fruit in Mexico) it was so natural and homeade , the seeds were still in it! And good chunks of the fruit itself. We also tried the queso fresa and mamay flavor(both were so good) While sitting there another customer ordered fresh tacos, the tortillas are homemade, so I HAD to get an order. You don't find too many places that make homemade tacos, so we ordered 3 tacos asada. My goodness they were delicious. As a snack we also got a chicharron preparado, and left with four popsicles to go, (Wednesday's they have a special on them for 2.25) I must say, this is a hidden jem! We came from Miami Beach and we're looking for some good Mexican food, a bit of a drive from our location but it was well worth of a trip! If in the area you have to check it out ! read more

A small place with excellent ice cream. The paletas are 10/10. I really like the coconut one. It's very refreshing!

This is my first time coming here and I am very impressed!!! They have anything Mexican related such as candies and other stuff!!!! They have a wide variety of ice cream and water pops. They have over 24 homemade ice cream flavors including strawberry cheesecake,Tamarindo,cookies and cream,Lime Elote,Coffee,Piña colada ,coconut and tequila flavor....they also have quick foods such as tacos, tortas, quesadillas...etc..!!! Fucking fire!!!!!!! It's cheap and super lowkey!!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!! In my personal opinion it's better than any frozen yogurt place, matter fact even Häagen-Dazs but again that's my opinion and Häagen-Dazs is expensive as fuck too .....however the only difference is....in the frozen yogurt places you can add your own toppings and all that shit but this place is literally one of a kind!!!! FUCKING AMAZING!!!! If I can give 10 stars I would!!!!! read more

The ice cream here is absolutely incredible and a great price! I had the chocolate Oreo with strawberry on top. I ordered the small size which was 2.50 and comes w two scoops.

You feel like you're in Mexico in there ! read more

Just like any Michoacana paletería in Mexico, except somehow in the middle of Miami. Delicious selection of paletas. I just wish they also offered a bunch of aguas frescas! They have a lot of Mexican treats too, which is pretty awesome. read more

La Michoacana Joankale - The counter where you order your food. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Miami, Florida

The place was super cute, and the ice cream had a really genuine natural home-ade flavor to it. First few bites were heaven! But the ending tastes it left me with was not so good .... I told her I was preggos and I was in the mood to try but ice Cream ~ and from here. I got the 3.50 cup -3scoops... they give you a pretty fair amount I guess ... although I think those extra.50 cents is like going over board with it now ...but any way the piña-coconut was the best! Sooo good. But then the rum raisin had me tripping out because it tasted like straight LIQ. Alcohol! I was like whoah! I cal ed to ask them and they were like nervous or something ....lol oh well I guess like I always say "all in gods hands "... oh and the Mamey (my third flavor) had no taste at all... it was blah..not the taste I expected .... but any way over all I'm still coming back, cause they have a lot of stuff in their and unique natural flavors...it kind of intrigues me lol... let's see read more

This is the hidden gem that everyone dreams of stumbling upon. The building has a beautiful and colorful exterior and interior with hand painted characters that make it hard to miss. I don't speak or understand any Spanish but I was still able to get exactly what I wanted with no trouble at all. The coconut ice cream was the best I have had( and I have tried many) and the Pina Colada ice cream had real chunks of pineapple that took an already excellent flavor to another level. I absolutely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a sweet treat on a hot day. Truly the best ice cream I have ever had. read more

If you're looking for natural ice cream with Mexican flavor but don't want to head to Homestead, this is the place for you. It has all the flavors like mango con chamoy, arroz con leche, mamey, tequila, etc. Besides, it's conveniently located and you can actually park on the streets nearby with no parking meters (unheard of in Miami). read more

Terrible place, besides no parking, only cash accepted, like really who carries cash now a days. So many apps available to be able to accept cards, and the still chose to be the old style "cash only" Who expects to do business like this? Not worth the hassle. read more

Paletas just like la Michoacana in Tijuana. Super delicious . They also have ice cream....not as big of a selection as other paletterias but still offers about 10 flavors.
