" I had high expectations given all the reviews, and I am pleased to say they were met! The ice creams are artisanal and simply delightful. The strawberries with cream... wow! They have a perfect balance of sweetness and richness. My only complaint is the consistent crowd and the resulting wait time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Paletería Pelícano was a delightful experience that reminded me of summertime treats as a child. The ice creams bursting with flavor are unlike anywhere else. I had the banana split, and it was as good as it gets. Priced just right for the quality, I definitely think it’s worth every penny. Just remember, the longer lines are part of the charm; if you’re impatient, maybe opt for off-peak hours to enjoy a sweeter experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" This photoshoot took us to Monterrey, and everyone raved about Paletería Pelícano. I tried their strawberries with cream upon recommendation and can confirm you need to try them! The texture and flavor are incredible! The portions are generous, which is a big plus. Sadly, I wasn’t aware of their unpredictable schedule, so I ended up visiting on a day they were closed. I’ll have to return soon to explore more of their offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Paletería Pelícano on a warm day and enjoyed the best-tasting popsicles! The flavors are especially vibrant, and I loved how they are made fresh. However, it’s worth noting that service can be very slow, and sometimes you find yourself waiting outside for quite a while. Despite the inconvenience, I think it’s a worthwhile stop for any dessert lover looking for sweetness that feels homemade! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently discovered Paletería Pelícano and it was life-changing! Their ice creams are pure perfection, especially the classic strawberries with cream. The owners’ experience shows, and the flavors take me back to my fondest summer memories. Like a double scoop of nostalgia—absolutely recommend if you're in Monterrey. My only suggestion? Bring your patience, as the line can get lengthy! " (*Curated Review*)

" I usually don’t write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience. Paletería Pelícano has the best strawberry with cream! The portion size is very generous, ensuring you get your money's worth. You can tell they care about every detail in their preparation. Just be prepared for a wait—this place is worth it, even if you need to hunker down for a bit in line! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I love the authentic flavors at Paletería Pelícano, I've found the service to be hit or miss in terms of speed. The desserts are indeed some of the best I've had, especially their popsicles. But I can’t ignore the discomfort of waiting in a long line. Also, their random closing days can be a hassle. Still, when they’re open, the flavors are unmatched! " (*Curated Review*)
