While the who’s who of north McAllen fills this bustling spot at lunchtime, it’s also a great place for a casual dinner. Start with an order of flatbread, served hot and seared with grill marks, and a dab of one of the fresh dips, such as the lemony hummus with oven-roasted garlic and a hint of smoky paprika. Follow this with Blue’s Green Salad (hand-torn greens, tomatoes, cucumbers) or a crispy-crusted pizza, such as the Colorado, topped with roasted red bell pepper sauce, tomatoes, creamy goat cheese, and chicken or shrimp.
