This is a great place to get a snack. My favorite thing here is the blue cookie dough ice cream. Their corn is pretty good.

I finally gave in and tried the corn in a cup from La Michoacana… and wow. I don’t know why I waited so long. It’s honestly one of the best comfort snacks I’ve had in a while. The corn was hot and fresh, and the combo of chili butter, mayo, and cheese just hit perfectly. Creamy, spicy, cheesy—everything blended so well together. It’s one of those things you don’t realize you’re craving until you’re halfway through the cup and already thinking about getting another one. Super simple, but sooo satisfying. Definitely going back for more.

Great place, 13-20 ice-cream flavors to choose from not counting the popsicles they have, even have toys for sale for younger kids. Corn cups are amazing make sure to ask if you don't want too much corn juice in your cup, employees are nice and the younger employees are respectful and kind.
