So much to try - ice cream, Mexican popsicles (paletas), and many flavors of beverage (horchata, nuts, etc.) And all the Mexican street/fast food you can imagine. Be a kid again and take the family. Family owned business. Staff is friendly, recommended.
Very good food, but they say they close at 9:00 pm and I drove from perry and it was 7:50 and they were close people were inside still eating not very happy about that.
Excellent restaurant to get late night Mexican food just a tad bit pricey so expect it to be as good as the price
I love coming coming here for the mangonada and other ice cream. Sweet place for group hangout. 😁
Good food, and they have a nice variety of drinks & their ice cream is amazing!
2 things1- I got nachos the chips WHERE STALE they put no cheese on it at all.2- I got 2 steak tacos they each had like 4 pieces of meat, and barley any toppings.
All the flavors u can think off and not expensive at all
The food was great as usual but the service has not been the best lately. I’ve been coming here since I moved to Des Moines a couple years ago and I can honestly say that they have downgraded. The girls that I would always see would be polite and all about the client and they would make you feel right at home. I haven’t had the same experience recently, the girls upfront are always giving attitude, don’t really pay attention to what the customer is saying, and seem irritated when you ask them a simple question, mind you I don’t usually ask questions but I wanted to get something other than my usual. Overall the food and treats are great but the service is disappointing.
Food is amazing & I love the fact that they have a million options for Mexican snacks, aside from their amazing tacos 😋. Everyone is always friendly!
We stop here every time we are in Des Moines. Ice cream, sorbet, fresh fruit, agua frescas, and food. Great staff bilingual and will explain everything.
Aguas frescas were great, we also ordered various tacos and the carne asada fries. The meat on the tacos were good but the carne asada was chewy and tasted old.
100% amazing food and the best service
Fast and friendly, they have great selection of food and snacks.
The best antojitos and authentic Mexican food, and the paletas are yummy!!

Ice cream and drinks here is amazing 10/10, service is also great. Parking is kind of tight but this place is certainly worth a visit. Never had the food but it does look good.

ITS SOOOO GOOD you guys definitely need to go try it
I love this olace, my second time there, choices galore!! Variety of drinks and finger foods like no other. The service is really good, smiling faces all the time, but the one very importang thing is cleanliness, I think they should keep checling on it. The floor mostly. But I would definitely go back.
There is so much on the menu. Youll always find something new to try.
Friendly, helpful service. Ice cream - cafe ( coffee) and ferrero rocher very good, creamy. Prices excellent! Going bac to try food !
Love this place. its an amazing latin restaurant with great desserts. They speak English and Spanish. Would definitely recommend if your looking for latin food or desserts
Super nice people, good food. I would give 5 stars if it were a little cleaner.
This place is very authentic and the ice cream and aguas here are amazing!! girls are always nice there and patient.
Fruitas are just ok
Their tacos are amazing
I love this place. The food is great. The staff is great. There is plenty of seating.
The best icream in town home made
Cool and different
Love their Agua Fresca and home made ice creams. Mangonada🤤
If can I rate this ice cream shop 0 stars, I definitely would. I went in on a lovely sunny day, happy to get a creamy scoop of ice cream, but to my surprise I was greeted by a rude lady that was no help in explaining anything when I asked her about the different flavors, she seemed to be annoyed by my curiosity, as well as when I asked for a sample she got mad, and almost threw the spoon full of ice cream at me across the counter. To top it off, the lemon popsicle my boyfriend bought, went straight to the garbage because it was absolutely gross, and an uncomfortable level of sour. This ice cream shop really needs to pick up on its customer service and product quality.
Great ice cream. I often drive out of my way while traveling across the Des Moines area to stop here.
If you want legitimate Mexican fast food that is not Americanized, come here. You will also find a large selection of aguas frescas, Mexican ice cream treats; frozen fruit bars made with real fruit or cream, Along with Mexican candy like Tamarind or Mazapán that Mexican kids grew up with. I highly recommend you take a fellow a Mexican with you to help you figure out what’s good!
First time ever visiting this place and I am already blown away with how well the food was. Check these guys out. They definitely deserve it.
Excelente service, great food.
THE MOST AUTHENTIC PLACE IN DES MOINES. I grew up in south Texas and places like this were hard to find even down there.
Chilindrina (chicharrón preparado), fresh flavored water (agua fresca), shakes, corn on a cup ( esquites/elote en vaso) overall is good Mexican Antojito. Just a bit pricey for the quantity and quality.
Very good food. Lots to choose from. Very nice people.
Nice variety of delicious ice cream, friendly & helpful service, will be back to try the food
Love this place!!!!
Want a real mexican food experience this is the place. And although Carne Asada Fries are not necessarily mexican food still its mexican style dish that is delicious
Food was good so were the chocolate malts!
One of the best places to eat in DSM!
Im not too sure about this place but I did stop at a taco truck and that shhhh was 🔥 af... Not to sure about this place tho 😂
Had a great selection of Mexican style paletas. Great service, great quality food!
Luv their ice cream. And food yumm
Seems pretry authentic. Service is ok. They do have a lot of variety of foods. Prices seem a little high on some of the items. Overall, decent place to eat.
The best ice cream in town no questions asked.Try fruit in a cup or agua fresca. You can’t go wrong with anything. They have a great selection of food as well. Paletas, mangonadas and mucho more. If you ever been to Mexico or a big city where they sell all the Mexican snacks then you’re in heaven.
Such nice people and pricing is super goid
It is a small Mexico in the middle of the US Midwest
Awesome food great ice cream fun family place
If your looking for a plave to enjoy some mexican food, and treats this is the place to go.
