"Pepe's hits all the right notes when it comes to Key lime pie: the right consistency and creamy texture, Goldilocks points (not too tart, not too sweet!), the perfect amount of whipped cream......and it's served in a bowl. And Key lime pie served in a bowl is always a good idea!"

"If a restaurant has been open for over a century, you can bet there's a reason. Their fresh and authentic Key lime pie is certainly a part of it."

Tropical Inn

"Even though it’s not a consistent award-winner, my favorite has always been the version served up at Pepe’s Cafe. The surprise note of cinnamon in the crust and the fact that they whip the egg whites before folding them into the filling set this recipe apart. The airiness of the egg whites give it a texture that compliments the delicate sweet-to-tangy balance, rendering it all “just so”. Heavenly."
