Paleterias Monarka

This business has about 30 different ice cream flavors and they all taste amazing. The workers are always polite. If they don’t have what you crave on the menu, they will make it for you. They have snacks and soft drinks and you’re always welcome to go outside to sit and enjoy what you ordered.

Amazing flavors and great atmosphere. The woman that runs it is super friendly and very kind. This place is super cute. We will be back a lot !!!

Nice little ice cream shop. Really fun choices from above and below the border. I tried the Churros Reyenos — crispy rolls with ice cream on top and some fudge. Very reasonable prices, tasty food, immaculately clean.

Cutest place. I absolutely love coming here, the few employees that there are, are always extremely polite. Very clean, place is very well decorated and it just makes you feel happy to be there. Definitely recommend!

Came across this little diamond in the rough while riding with #sweetheart. Awesome variety of ice cream, shakes, frozen drinks, and fruit. Excellent kid-​friendly atmosphere. Friendly staff, clean tables and eating spaces.
I will definitely be back!

How sweet it is!
The shop is adorable, both inside and out. First off, it’s super colorful and inviting, with plenty of outdoor seating. Plus, the shop owner is so kind and gracious. AND the ice cream is awesome!
I was surprised by how many dessert options and ice cream flavors they had to choose from. They of course had paletas (cool flavored popsicles, essentially), but they also had over 20 different ice cream flavors AND churros!
I went with a cup of dark chocolate and cinnamon sticky bun, and both were great, but man oh man the cinnamon sticky bun was a knockout! Cinnamon roll in ice cream form, for sure.
So, this place is wonderful in all aspects. One thing I’m not a huge fan of is location — I only ask that it were closer to my neck of the woods and then, Palterias Monarcha, I would be your number one fan! I happened to be in the area and upon seeing the ice cream signage, I knew I had to check the place out. I’m definitely glad I made the stop!

WE ALL SCREAM
…for ice cream! Hidden in the back of a strip mall is a colorful ice cream place. When you walk in here you feel like you are at a roadside stand. You will also notice that they love kids here. There are small mini picnic tables with umbrellas for the little ones. They also have a flat screen playing kids cartoons in Spanish. My little one was enjoying Kung Fu Panda 2, while eating an ice cream cone.
Prices are very reasonable. You can get a single scoop in a bowl or sugar cone for only a $ 1.50. What a deal! They also have a ton of flavors to choose from. You can also ask for a flavor to sample first before making your purchase. If you’re not into ice cream they also have some gelato and sorbet selections too. I saw a snow cone machine but it wasn’t up and running.
After much deliberation my little one went with a scoop of cookies and cream on a sugar cone. I had a little bite and it was really good.
We also met Elisabeth and she was very nice to us. She fielded all of our questions and answered them with a smile. She told us that they had been open for about a month.
I noticed they had some churros warming and Elisabeth showed us an amazing photo of a desert they could make with churros, ice cream & fresh fruit. We will have to save that for another day because we had an amazing big lunch next door at Papa Marcos.
I did notice various hot sauces on the counter and a nacho cheese machine. I did not have the heart to ask Elisabeth anymore questions but I did see some deep fired pork rinds, so I’m assuming it is for that. I knew it wouldn’t go good on ice cream.
I also saw a sign advertising shakes ($ 3), smoothies ($ 4) and malts ($ 5). Again we will have to save this for another visit.
So if you are in the area and looking for some ice cream from a great colorful small business then I recommend you pop in here. If you have kids they will love the kids size tables to enjoy there ice cream treats.
