LA CASITA MEXICAN RESTAURANT – Mexican
It began as Green Cove Springs' store for Latin snacks, spices and goods, and grew into the town's Mexican kitchen — a corner room on North Orange Avenue where chips and house salsa land before you have finished reading. The molcajete is the signature, a stone bowl arriving loud and steaming; around it sit carne asada tacos, enchiladas, chiles rellenos, burritos, tamales and fajitas. Regulars talk about plates bigger than the price suggests and a room that greets repeat faces by name. Small-town Clay County Mexican, done with conviction rather than flourish.
