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

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!

For example, with the Turkish delights and ice cream selections, only a few items are labeled. For most of them, you have to guess the flavor or ingredients. When I asked questions, there was a language barrier, and the staff member behind the counter was unable to clearly explain what the items were in English. This can be especially frustrating for customers with food allergies or dietary restrictions. In the U.S., I would expect all flavors and ingredients to be clearly labeled so customers can make informed choices. Even if staff members are not fluent in English, having accurate labels for flavors and ingredients would greatly improve the customer experience. The desserts themselves are excellent, but better product labeling would make the experience much more enjoyable and accessible for everyone.

So cute!

We were craving a late night dessert after leaving East River 9 so we stopped at milk + sugar…read more Overall, great service but not much to be impressed about. 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.

You're paying for the K-Pop Demon Hunter pop-up aesthetic, the upbeat vibes, the fast service, the themed menu. The desserts? Solid. The Pinky Up Parfait hits. One scoop of cappuccino ice cream comes generous and tasty. Nothing disappoints. But nothing revolutionizes dessert either. This is good execution in service of a limited time experience, not destination-level pastry work. And that's fine. That's exactly what a pop-up should be. The real draw is that everything works together. Vibe, music, service, and desserts that don't let the side down. It feels fun, not gimmicky. That's harder to pull off than you'd think. Bottom line. Pop-ups don't stick around. If the K-Pop theme is your thing and you want solid desserts in a fun environment, go now. If you're just looking for great desserts, permanent spots do it better.

The cupcake I got was cookies and cream but it just taste like reg store bought cake. You know the type that it's "chocolate" but there's not much choc flavor to it. The cream cheese frosting was like eating melted grease and added nothing to the rest of the cupcake. I ended up taking a bite and dumping the rest. I got one of their brownies but gave that to my husband so he could eat it at work. So can't really talk on that.

They had samples to try of the chocolate strawberries and those were super pricey otherwise I would've definitely bought a box. That was delicious. I'd come back to try other items.

She told me to go to the bakers son and make sure I go early because they do sale out and people buy in bulk. I entered with intentions of only getting the ube bread but $40 and 5 items later I went slightly overboard. They have so many items and they all look delicious. The customer service was great and prices were really good. Now to the items, the ube bread is phenomenal, soft, sweet, flavorful 10/10. I also got a biscoff bread sandwich (I'm forget the name) which had the softest and most perfect bread I've ever indulged in. Now to what the employees recommended and the absolute star. The ube Swiss roll. Omg, it was phenomenal. 20 out of 10! It was perfect in every way. I live 30 mins away but will make sure to keep The Bakers Son on a must go place weekly!

Since we were already in the area after breakfast at TJ's Filipino Cuisine, we finally got the chance to stop by and try their baked goods for ourselves. We arrived early, so the bakery wasn't too busy yet. The bakers were busy prepping more goodies in the back while my cousin and I browsed all the Filipino baked goods we really miss from back home in the Philippines. They even had suman, sapin-sapin, biko, and other kakanin, which was nice to see. I specifically looked for the chicken empanada, and my cousin wanted to try the ube white chocolate chip cookie. We also saw different kinds of siopao and planned to come back later to buy some before heading back to San Antonio. We tried the ube white chocolate chip cookie first, but honestly we weren't totally satisfied. It tasted more like a regular white chocolate chip cookie with purple coloring and didn't really have much ube flavor. I also tried the chicken empanada. My cousin didn't like it because it was sweeter than expected--we were both expecting it to be savory. There seemed to be caramelized sugar in the outside of the pastry, which probably added to the sweetness. I still like it, though it was definitely sweeter than what I'm used to. Red Ribbon's chicken empanada is still my favorite. Later that day before leaving Houston, we came back for the siopao we planned to take home. We finally decided to just buy a couple pieces for ourselves, heat them up in the bakery, and try them fresh. When we saw the price for a four-pack, we were honestly disappointed. It felt expensive for the size. The siopao wasn't huge, and while I like the dough, there wasn't much chicken filling inside. For the portion, taste, and quality, it felt overpriced. Overall, it's probably not worth making another trip back for us. We did enjoy the cassava ube suman, and I like the chicken empanada, but not enough to drive all the way to Houston just for those. If I live nearby, I might come back to try other baked goods, but based on this visit, I'm not sure the rest would impress my palate. I still give them credit for cleanliness and customer service, although we did notice fruit flies on one of the shelves and reported it. The staff was friendly, and the bakery itself was welcoming. At the end of the day, since they're a bakery, the expectation is great-tasting, quality, mouthwatering Filipino breads, pastries ", and kakanin. While some items were enjoyable, overall it just didn't quite live up to the hype for us.

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
