Bites Nearby: Little Mexican Café

You could stand on a corner and look around until a restaurant sign draws you in. But we've got a better idea. Each week, New Rochelle Patch picks a great restaurant either in town or nearby that is worth checking out.

Here's this week's choice:



The Little Mexican Café is known for its fun, lively atmosphere and great selections at reasonable prices, so if you want to dine with a date or a crowd you will no doubt have a good time.

This spot offers all the Mexican cuisine favorites like tacos, guacamole and fajitas but there are also little known delights such as chorizo, ceviche and platano fritos.

Their drink options offer something for everyone, so if you want something more traditional you can order a tamarindo drink, though if you are feeling more like a beer, there is that as well.

Prices range from $3.50 for their LMC Real Deal Quesadilla to $16.95 for the Seafood Salad.

Here are some of the reviews that appeared on Yelp.com:

"They have a cool lounge area away from the restaurant with really nice ambient lighting that makes for a really nice atmosphere. Bartenders were very friendly and made us feel very welcome even though we were just ordering drinks. I came back with some friends and experienced the same casual atmosphere and friendly staff."

"I've been here a couple or three times and the food has been consistently very tasty. Tableside-made guacamole, chimichangas, chile relleno, taquitos, everything is very fresh and came out at a decent pace. Portions were large, but not overly so and the prices were OK. Most times I've been, there hasn't been a wait for a table. I'll return."

"I don't like Mexican food, but I love LMC. The food is great and well made, the drinks are great, the service is great... Are you noticing a pattern here?"
