La Michoacana — Restaurant in Horn Lake

A nice little surprise! They had authentic Mexican treats. The ice cream wasn’t top quality, however it was good and they had a variety of flavors that aren’t “usual.” They have food items like nachos, fruit salad, and slushes and smoothies as well. I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn’t slammed busy, but the line stayed decent. The inside wasn’t the cleanest, the decor was nonexistent, but it was roomy and they had chalkboard paint on walls if you had kids you wanted to keep busy.

My daughter had the Mexican cake ice cream flavor and it was “ok.” It had little bits of gansito cake broken up throughout it with ribbons of chocolate. She let me taste hers and if I am honest, it isn’t something I would order. My son had Ferrero roche flavor (or however that is spelled) and it again was “ok.” It tasted mainly of cream and minimal chocolate flavor. After a few bites of any of the ice cream you got a thick layer of cream “film” on your tongue coating the taste buds which was a little off putting. The flavors were very mild and not pronounced, bold, or strong.

I had pistachio and pine nut which were better than ok, they were delicious. Again, once the film coated tongue it wasn’t as good, but it was ok. It had plenty of nut to cream ratio. They do allow you to taste the flavors before you order which was good. They have several sizes to choose from and they are generous with it. They actually pack the ice cream into the cup instead of just dipping and dropping.

The prices were decent for the amount of ice cream you got. We got the “medium” size cups which were $4, so yeah, it was ok serving for that price. I think if I were to go again I would try the fruit options or the strawberries and cream sounded good. I will mention this, there was someone ordering a banana split while we were there this past weekend and it was a GOOD size for that price. It looked quite scrumptious too.

This is one place I would recommend trying at least once. Pine nut or pistachio is the way to go in my opinion. The pine nut tastes nutty and fruity and is light pink, while the pistachio is...

We have been visiting this location for some 4 years. On 10/13/2024 at about 2:00 p.m. we entered for an ice cream treat. A young lady approached us from the cash register scratching her face, and asked what we wanted to eat. I asked if she could please wash her hands before serving us as she had been touching her face. She turned towards the sink, rinsed her right hand, said something to a coworker and stepped into the adjacent room. The local was busy, and so were the other employees attending to other customers. We waited for some 6:30 minutes, when this young lady stepped back towards the counter and went to another person inline. I stepped in and advised that we were next and waiting to be served. She stated that one of her coworkers would help us. I asked the person inline and others if they thought my request for her to wash her hands due to her touching her face was out of line? Most agreed that I was in the right. Especially since they have to place their hands into the ice cream buckets. She was NOT rude nor insulting, she was ofended that I requested she was her hands. Although I have her name and can describe what she looks like, I will forego these details. Hygiene is important to the safety of...

Absolutely love this place. I came across this place cause I was craving ice-cream really bad one week and this place had many options but in the new location they have way more options and a clean dining area they are constantly busy also so that says a lot. They also do not mind giving out taste test. I found my new favorite ice cream here. Also there is some missing information on here but just pop in on most days they are open. They they have over foods to try also they place is a Mexican ice cream base but the workers are knowledgeable, quick and communicate to get you in and out in a...
