"South Lane Bistro has an inviting beach shack ambience with a nice porch and gas fire that creates a warm space. The hostess is gracious and welcoming, and it seems as if all will be well. Unfortunately, the food is mostly uninspired and tasteless. The broccoli appetizer was the best--fresh and tasty but the veggie tacos contained only a few strips of red pepper and onion with little to no seasoning or herbs, all slapped on top of cold tortillas that were budget brand at best. A drizzle on top was purportedly aioli but seemed more like something from a fast food restaurant and added little. Very skimpy proportions could be accepted if prepared with some flair, but honestly, my 8 year old makes a better taco. Others ordered a burger and steak fajitas with similar complaints of tasteless food. South Lane Bistro has a wonderful location and has some lovely workers, but they need some inspiration in the kitchen. A night out should evoke happy feelings and contentment, but South Lane Bistro just made us cross it off our list of places to go to or recommend."
