First of all you have to decide how would you like to implement the mobile version of your site. Basically you have two options:

• Create separate views / controllers for your mobile pages. This solution is the most expensive but also the most flexible. (look at mobile support in MVC 4)
• Create responsive layout for your site ( http://jquerymobile.com/ ) Usually I prefer this option.

Normally i'm using 3 projects

• DAL
  • Contains Edmx, T4 templates
• Service
  • Service classes with CRUD operations (I'm not using repositories, because they are overkill)
  • View Models
• Web
  • Controllers, Views, ...
