Love stopping by here whenever we're in the area. The homemade ice cream is always delicious, rich, creamy, and tastes incredibly fresh. The service is consistently friendly and efficient, and they happily offer samples if you're having a hard time choosing a flavor which is always appreciated. It's a smaller shop with limited seating, but honestly, once that ice cream is in your hands, you're probably not sticking around long anyway. A sweet little spot that's definitely worth the stop. read more

This is hands down my favorite authentic Mexican ice cream shop on this side of town. I've met the owner a few times and he's very nice and so are all of his employees. They have a lot of seating so you're never cramped up waiting for a seat and it's also a big locale so it rarely gets too crowded. I've tried various menu items their fresas con crema are great, the tostilocos are pretty good, and the nachos are a solid choice. Their paletas are great and the aguas frescas are super refreshing and delicious. My go to order however is always their ice cream, cookies and cream or gansito are my go toos. It's good quality ice cream and they aren't stingy with their portions. If you haven't already, I'd recommend stopping by! read more

Acana. People think I've had work done (on my ice cream, so to speak), but I have Natural Ice Cream if you know what I mean. Definitely some of the greatest Paletas and ice cream we have ever tried, and it just takes paletas to the next level. I can't quite describe how amazing they are - it's just too good to be true. There are Mexican dessert shops and then there is this place. They kind of ruined paletas for us because we really like Mexican popsicles and we get them all the time, and a lot of places we think make them really well, but then we tried this place, and by comparison to this place there are really no good paleta shops. That's how good they are. We're talking about some of the very very best paletas that you will ever eat. The Mexicans really know how to make their fruit Popsicles with chunks of fruit and delicious fresh ingredients, and this is the perfect example of just how good they can be. They have amazing ice cream products too, but it's the fruity Paletas that are always the standout here. They're a little more expensive than you probably imagined and will cost you $3 or so for each one, but it's well worth it, and they are otherworldly in terms of taste. It's run by a very friendly family, and they're looking to expand to a couple more locations, and we can only hope that all of their locations will have these incredible amazing standards for desserts. I'm going for paletas, you can come, do you WANNA? You said you maybe would, so decide, are you GONNA? Popsicles might be fun, but Paletas are FUNNER Especially when you get them here at MICHOACANA!

Apparently all the ice cream here is made in the store. How awesome is that. The owners are super nice and cool. They had Man of steel (superman) playing in the background while we ate our ice cream which was fun. They had close to 16 different flavors - all of which were really good. It's not cheap, but seriously you can taste the quality. They also will let you try a few flavors too. They also had ice cream bars but we didn't try those. Facility is pretty darn clean which is nice. Even the restrooms - we took a visit there to wash my and my kid's hands. You won't be disappointed. Quality ice cream. Cool owners. read more

Paletas and ice cream are decent but the pricing is pretty crazy. One small scoop for $4, and one freezer burned paleta cost $4 as well. You can drive a little further down 1960 heading towards 45 and find other small Mexican ice cream spots that do the same size scoop or same paletas for $2.50 or so and they will taste better too. read more

I loved this place, their ice creams are delicious, the flavors are very original, it's super clean and the staff is great; however, I had an awkward experience with one gentleman that I believe must be one of the owners: I have been to many ice cream shops and gelaterias around the world and I have always found pride in business owners when customers try their different flavors before making a decision. When my wife and I arrived at Michoacana Auténtica, we were amazed by their selection of unusual flavors, we asked for few samples and the staff was nice in giving us tiny samples (which is common practice in gelato/ice cream shops), when I asked about another flavor, this gentleman looked at my hand, I was holding four tiny spoons from previous tastings, looked at me and said that he will only give me one more tasting. I don't know, it was very awkward, I didn't know what to say and how to react. My wife looked at me, we ordered two medium ice-creams (two flavors each), enjoyed them and left the place with a "sour taste" about the whole experience. A cultural shock? Perhaps other customers have abused him before? A company's policy different than what others do? Or was he in a bad mood that day? The tiny amounts on each sample certainly did not cut into their profits... Poor customer appreciation I think... read more

La Michoacana Auténtica receives 5 stars all around for the food/drinks, the service and the ambiance. We got a variety of items and everything tasted so fresh and flavorful! The owners were serving the food and taking orders and everything was done from scratch. One of the things I ordered was bionico and they prepared it right in front of me with fresh fruit. They keep their establishment clean and the vibe I got from the owners was very pleasant. They are very nice and were patient with all the stuff we ordered lol. We went during a busy time (holiday) and because they prepare certain items from scratch, there can be a little wait, but not too bad. I definitely recommend this place for a family outing.

La Michoacana is very Auténtica! I have tried several paletas and some ice cream, and every single bite was delicious and amazing! They make their products in the store, and you can really taste the freshness and top quality ingredients. The first time I tried their lime paleta, I thought it tasted different from what I'm used to. Then I realized that it wasn't full of artificial sweeteners and colors and chemicals like you would find on the grocery store shelf. This paleta hasn't been living in a freezer for months on end. It's made with fresh and real ingredients and sold soon after. All of the paletas I have tried have been wonderful. The fruit ones are full of fruit bits and taste like real fruit. The guava is really good, and I don't even like guava. I tried the caramel, and it was amazing. It was so creamy and smooth with a rich flavor of caramel. I can't wait to try more milky paletas. Their ice creams are also really fresh and delicious. I love this place! I try to come every time I'm shopping near here. They have so many flavors that I still want to try. Also, the people working here are super nice. This is a must try! read more

This is a true mom and pop shop! My family and I showed up 30 minutes before closing. The service was still spectacular! Showed us all the favorites and let us try some before ordering. I am typically skeptical of "homemade" ice cream because they are usually super sweet and end up not really being home made. But after tasting their ice cream.. I can confidently say they make the ice cream themselves! The mango flavor actually tasted fresh. The pistachio flavor actually had some pistachio pieces in there. The caramel macchiato was creamy and my fiance favorite. Their prices are also super affordable! I feel like they are under charging for the sizes of the scoops and quality of their desserts. 100% recommended to anyone and everyone! read more

Side note you'll need a code to use their restroom. I ordered the split cup of Strawberry Almond Cheesecake and Dulce de Horchata. I felt that the portion could've been slightly more generous than below the rim of the cup, but I suppose the price is reasonable. I guess it's hit or miss like at Marble Slab. The cheesecake flavor was okay not overpowering, which I would've preferred more than the almond and strawberry. I think I wasn't impressed with it because the server scooped more of the graham crust than ice cream. I'm pretty sure that's another reason I didn't particularly care for their cheesecake. The horchata was nice with hints of cinnamon and with the split cup made it taste even better.

How many years has TFB been bookmarked?! Tooooo long…read more But good fortune popped up in Pearland as I was returning home from work and I just had to stop by! There was no line too?! I made a bee line to get my funnel cake before the word spread that TFB was in Pearland! I went to my IG just to see what their times would be for the pop up. First post I see is that they have a featured flavor- the cookie butter funnel cake. With Biscoff cookies and pieces of cheesecake interlingled within... Yall, I'm not a big sweets person and I only bought the large to support the biz, but that dang funnel cake is no more! Gone. Disappeared. Now, not all at once. That would be crazy, but a few bites when I first got it...a few more hours later...a few more today and yeah its gone. It tasted just as good the next day too, so well worth the money for not only the portion size but the creativity. I never would have thought to put Biscoffs on a funnel cake....so glad somebody did! The food truck is very efficient as well. You place your order and they give you a buzzer. They were willing to bring the funnel cake to me but I had parked at a distance anticipating that more people would be showing up soon so didn't want to get blocked in. Very courteous people and the funnel cake - the BEST I EVER HAD. Hands dooooown! If you're looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, follow them on IG and enjoy satisfying that sweet tooth!

I walk over post workout and ordered the strawtella funnelcake. Yummy! Very very good and a large portion. I ordered the small but it had weight okay! Staff were friendly and the service was quick!

She experiments with different flavors, cultural flairs, and combinations. The location has seating inside for about 10 people and outside patio tables with chairs for another 10 people. Free parking right in front is always a bonus. See you there!

They are open until 11pm weekdays and on the weekends close at midnight. Your cone can be made to a flower shape. This became very popular and since then has remained busy. The line usually goes fast, if you see a line don't worry it won't take long. Worth the wait & price. Greta variety in flavors and cute indoor but small. The best thing to do is the grab and go walk around.

La Michoacana Autentica is our new favorite spot down the road! We've been there several times since they opened, and they never disappoint. My absolute must-try is the homemade Gansito ice cream - a unique flavor you can't find anywhere else. And my husband swears by their three-scoop banana split with strawberry, gansito, and pecan ice cream, complete with a banana split, whipped cream, strawberry and chocolate sauce, and a cherry on top. We also indulge in their refreshing agua fresca de lemon y pepino, flavorful elote in a cup con todo, and the delicious ensalada de fruta con tajin y chamoy. If you haven't been, it's a definite must-visit for ice cream and authentic treats. La Michoacana Autentica has quickly become our go-to spot for sweet and savory delights! read more

Mangonadas were apparently around $6, 1 ice cream scoop was $3.50 with 2 scoops being $5.50. I got free samples of the ice creams and decided on the coffee. It was good - had scarce bits of chocolate in it, but nothing special. The scoop was very tiny which was disappointing. My friend got coconut and it was definitely NOT coconut- it was a weird pineapple flavor that she had to throw away. I may return and try other flavors or other items, but I'd probably try other places first. Overall, still a nice place to get some desserts on a hot day. $5 minimum for credit card fyi
