I am a "Steve's Key Lime Pie (unpaid) evangelist - meaning I just take out-of-town friends there all the time because I think the pie is absolutely 100$ Dee-licious. Anyway, I took my former post-college roommate and her husband and son here - who I havent seen in many years - and after praising it to the high heavens, the pie we got was awful! It had none of that tart and sweet flavor whatsoever. Just...no flavor. I was embarrassed. Did we just get an "off" pie, or have standards gone down? I don't know the answer to that. I am giving Steve's some stars from all my past trips there. (Before this weekend, it would have gotten 5 stars.) Will go back in September and try again (maybe Steve and his wife are on vacation)? read more

What a great spot in Red Hook right next to a beautiful park and pier. Magnificent views of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. There was no line when we arrived around noon and I treated myself to the raspberry swingle, and my girlfriend had the classic swingle. We both really enjoyed how they weren't extremely tart and the fact that they were covered with delicious chocolate was even better. They were semi-frozen when we got them but warmed up a lot with the sun and we're just down right delectable. read more

After going with my friends to the Res Hook Winery, I poked my head around the corner because I saw this on Google Maps, and I realized how super awesome this place was. The key lime pie was tart, but smooth. Definitely a great dessert and a nice, quick experience. read more

I love keylime pie and couldn't wait to try this spot. When I arrived I parked nearby. I walked up and ordered through a window with a young man. I ordered the classic swingle and it was dipped in chocolate. I never had a chocolate covered keylime pie. I paid close to $6 and left. When I got in the car, I dug in and boy was it good. The combination of the chocolate and keylime pie was great. The crust was so good also. I definitely would come back for more. read more

Steve’s Authentic Key Lime Pie - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Is it weird to have a favorite key lime pie place? Is that something people do in today's day and age? (Was it something people did in other days and ages?) Are there a lot of key lime pie places to begin with? All those questions swarming around my head quickly disapated as soon as I plunged my fork into an individual key lime pie from Steve's. Safe to say, this is my favorite Key Lime Pie place in NY, if not the entire world As opposed to other places that serve a lot of options but are known for one good dish, Steve's focuses on what's on the sign out front - Key Lime Pie. You get the option to order your pie in either individual size, or a larger size that can (but doesn't have to if you're not in a sharing mood) feed 4 or 8 people. Little picnic tables in front of the window let you dig right in and enjoy. The pie is creamy and tart highlighting the delicious Florida key limes and a crumbley graham cracker crust gives a nice taste to finish on. The only downside about eating in front of the store is that the plastic forks they provide aren't sturdy enough to really dig into the pie (that and there's never enough pie to really get your fill) read more

If you're craving Key Lime pie and can't get to Key West, Steve's is the place to come. Located off the beaten path in Red Hook, you'll need to check the map to get here but once you do, I promise you'll be rewarded with a silky creamy key lime filling and a crunchy graham cracker crust. The smallest option (around $5) is a good size for one or two people. I wish I had gotten more. They also have an individual frozen chocolate covered key lime pie. I think I'll try that next time! read more

Y'all!!!!! Key Lime Pie, frozen, on a stick, covered In chocolate ! What the what! Cute little storefront eatery. Just key lime pie, coffee, and some beverages. They have lots of picnic tables outside and a lovely waterfront park nearby where you can enjoy the view.The key lime was perfectly tart and the layer of raspberry and chocolate shell was decadent. I ordered two mini pies to go as well. Lovely little gem, stop by you'll be glad you did! read more

This little shop is soooo adorable. For plain key lime pies, they show the size of the tins at the door. For the specialty flavors, they come in a little lollipop form called a Swingle. They also offer fresh squeezed limeade or coffee. Plenty of benches right in front of the store, or you can walk over to the park/pier area. It was a special treat to see the Statue of Liberty from here! I was able to find street parking a little down the way. read more

Was excited bc of years of talk about this place from friends, sadly we got all the flavors and none really wowd us:/ sad, tear emoji. We love small businesses and will probably return but until then.... You're former key lime fans. read more

Steve’s Authentic Key Lime Pie - Chipotle - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Good key lime pie. I was wandering deep into Red Hook and found this little tiny gem next to the park. The only one shop that open alone among the factory. Key lime was a highlight. Obviously it's good but I don't feel much different from the commercial one like Costco. However, the Raspberry Blonde was a MUST. It's frozen like ice bar but has many layers inner. Key lime, Raspberry and white Chocolate. $8 hmmm $$$ They have the original one if I have a chance to visit Res Hook again, I'll definitely stop by again. Be aware, their coffee was so freaking hot and super strong. read more

Second time coming here- consistently amazing. They legit just have key lime pie, water, and coffee. My wife and I got the frozen classic and the classic in tart versions. SO good! The perfect ratios and utterly delicious. What a special and unique stop! Right next to the park and with a view of Lady Liberty herself. I'm grateful they didn't go out of business during Covid. I hope they stay open indefinitely !!! read more

This... was not so good. We got sucked in by the sign and the line. The key lime pie itself had an off-putting taste. We couldn't finish it. * Why owners draw attention to their negative reviews I have no idea... read more

I mean, they sell key lime pie and key lime pie-adjacent treats. What's not to like? Tried the regular 4 inch pie, plus a classic swingle and a raspberry swingle. I'm a bit of a purist so I preferred the regular 4 inch, but the chocolate did work well. It's nice, quality dark chocolate, too. Nice experience eating out on the picnic tables then walking near the park/water. read more

By virtue of being one of only two pie places in America (trivia might be outdated) that actually uses key limes, is reason enough to venture into the industrial wild to satisfy your novelty craving. Admittedly, this location is a bitch to get to. I'm a city boy. I don't drive. My roommate however, recently leased a car because he's originally from Staten Island and NYC rules don't apply to them, does. So after half a decade of having Steve's Pie Place bookmarked, I can finally put my Dexter fantasy to rest. And I gotta say: Yeah, it's good. What surprised me the most is the texture. I guess I'm used to good old fashioned mass produced highly processed pies, where filling is normally dense; the cream? was about two textures away from being considered a liquid... goop? Not a draw back, just taken aback. The filling tasted like limes as predicted but you don't really get a hint of key. Sorry guys. Might I suggest munching on something with a more metallic taste that has iron... possibly fishy on occasion? Anywho, I went in with the possible apprehension of sour but no, the key lime pie was possibly as close to a homemade pie made back in the day when we actually had to use fruit and our wives wore sexy aprons. I dunno, I wasn't around for the 50s. Pie Place ;) read more

Not normally in this part of the city, so had to try one of these popular pies on a late Saturday afternoon. Small kiosk up front where you place your order and bring to one of the wooden table-benches outside. Between two people, shared the 4" Tart ($5.50) - which came out within a few minutes. Pie looks good in it's small aluminum container - a crumbly crust engulfing a rich tart center. Glad this was shared as it was a lot of sweetness and tart to have the whole thing in one go. Looks like you can take several to go, as well as have delivery. Next time would want to try "the Swingle" to see if that's the better item. read more

Wow! With puckered face I declare this is THE best key lime pie I ever tasted!!! I'm no connoisseur but this much is true. I have been on somewhat of a quest to find the best key lime pie for over 20 years. I just heard about Steve's last week when I was in the neighborhood for a Latinx art exhibit. My friend told me there was a key lime spot nearby. I got my son, to ask his friend who lives in the neighborhood. Thank you to my son Ralfie and his friend Ed for guiding me to this hidden gem in Red Hook. I had the regular on a stick-dipped in dark chocolate and with raspberry sauce dipped in dark and bought a pie to take home--plain original key lime without chocolate. I was iffy about the chocolate shell in a stick but all bites were divine!! Go get your key lime pie fix. Can't believe this place was so near. Will def be back. Window service only. Wood picnic tables outside. Right by the waterfront. Goegeous view of Lady Liberty. Great weather to enjoy this!!! read more

To start- the ferry ride over is absolutely stunning, just check the schedules and plan ahead, but red hook is a great area to spend time at.

Seriously, a key lime pie shop all the way in Red Hook? YES. A pilgrimage here is required by LAW, I'm sorry I don't make the rules. Take public transit all the way here. Walk. CRAWL. I don't care, it's worth it. Steve's key lime pie, the frozen mini thing dipped in chocolate and on a stick is such a delight. Tart and textured and perfect. Try the raspberry one. Have two. You can get the pie from some bars or maybe even groceries now but you MUST come to their Red Hook spot and sit on a bench and eat the damn pie in it's truest, most authentic form. Thank you Steve. read more

Very nice friendly place, A little out of the way to get to but well worth the trip! The Key Lime Pie was DELICIOUS and my daughter Aka birthday girl just gave her input and says it's the BEST KEY LIME PIE she ever had!!! We all agree read more

I have so many regrets about not partaking in Steve's Authentic Key Lime Pie. We took the ferry to Red Hook to check out the breweries and bars in the area. Two of the bars were closed so we decided to check out Red Hook Winery. While trying to find the winery we ran into Steve's. I had some sticker shock when I arrived and wasn't in the mood for something sweet so I passed. My friend ordered a small pie and later gave me a bite- WHAT?!?! Unreal. You can literally taste the difference. read more

I've been meaning to try these key lime pies for some time after seeing it featured on some Snapchat platforms and boy I'm glad I sure did!

I'm a huge fan of key lime pie and have always had this on my bucket list to try if I was ever in Red Hook. Well, finally made the trek so here I am! We tried both an original tart and the swiggle, which is just the original tart dipped in chocolate (same size) and on a stick. Both lived up to the hype! Creamy and tart, but not too tart. Steve knocks it out of the park. read more

We passed this between eating and drinking one fine day and just HAD to stop. It is a teeny-tiny store that has various sizes in Key Lime pies. For some reason, I am always craving this so it was GREAT for me. As much as I wanted to eat a large pie by myself, I decided to get (and share) a smaller pie. Although I got less pie than I was hoping for, I was still SO HAPPY with the pie. It was so fresh and delicious. If I am in the area again, I will 100% scope out another pie, probably get some to-go if I am going straight home after. read more

Steve's Authentic Key Lime Pies was the midway stop on our Brooklyn Food Tour. We read so much about this place and decided that it was a must-try given the reviews. The business appears to be operated out of a redone storage unit; the environment is super cool and they have picnic-style seating right outside the establishment where customers can enjoy their treats. We opted for the The Raspberry Swingle and a Single Serve Key Lime Pie. Prices were very reasonable and service was quick and friendly. The Raspberry Swingle - Not sure if this was just a me thing, but I wasn't the biggest fan of this one. I felt like the raspberry overpowered the flavor of the actual pie, and the chocolate seemed unnecessary. I was a bit confused how it ended up tasting, so I guess this option just wasn't for me. I'm sure other people who prefer a mix of flavors might like this one better, but unfortunately I felt like the Swingle obscured the actual flavor of the key lime pie. Single Serve Key Lime Pie - This was mind blowing. I'm so glad I got this, else I would have left here with a mediocre impression from the Swingle. The crust was light and crumbly and the pie filling was rich. I could definitely taste the key lime flavor; it was almost the perfect bite of dessert. I could honestly come here again and again for this and never get tired of it. Overall, I think there's something for everyone here. While the Swingle was not what I was looking for, I'm sure there are some who would prefer it over the regular pie. Regardless, I'll definitely be back for some more Key Lime Pie-it's truly the best I've ever had! read more

Best key lime pie ever!!! So fresh and tastes wonderful!! Arrived cold and packaged well. We will definitely order again.

I'm a big fan of Keylime pie. So much so that I booked marked this place and told my better half that we have to get a pie before we go back home. On our last full day we got our hands on their Keylime pie. With anticipation I took a small bite just waiting to taste the tartness you would think you'd taste. So I was surprised that I didn't taste that. I told my better half to try it and watched her expression. She didn't make that face of oh my but a meh. I took another bite (btw I did like the crust of it) thinking that I may have not gotten a big enough piece, but the same thing. To me IMHO, the pie tasted more eggy rather than that tangy, tart flavor. Maybe it was a bad batch or our taste buds were off. I hate to say this, but out of our food journey to NYC this was the most disappointing thing that I've eaten. Seeing all the 5 star reviews, I'm thinking we had a bad batch. Hey it happens as everyone is human and things happen. I know this as a friend of ours is a great Baker and in one batch of cookies he forgot an ingredient and he didn't realize until someone said something and then he realized what he left out. So I'm giving this place the benefit of the doubt. Maybe we will try it again or get one of those chocolate dipped ones the next time we are in town. read more

It was quite the adventure to find this little hidden place but it was so worth it. The idea of having frozen key lime pie dipped in chocolate seemed odd at first but after trying it.. I think it might be one of the best dessert combinations. We tried the Original Swingle at first which came out a little over $6 with tax. With the every bite, you get a nice crunch from the chocolate, a simple crumbly crust inside and soft limey center. The dark chocolate was not too sweet and absolutely fantastic. After devouring it, we went back for seconds for the Raspberry Swingle which was also great. I recommend letting the raspberry defrost more before eating. If you're ever in Red Hook you MUST stop by for this delicious treat! read more

Their Keylime pies are delicious of course. When I go visit my daughter and her family in Brooklyn I try to get the opportunity to go to Steve's. The people work there are just lovely and Steve's really has a place in the community. They take part in special events and fundraisers. I was there for the Barnacle parade and it did not disappoint. It was actually a parade to commemorate hurricane Sandy coming through Redhook and causing devastation. But this was a celebration of life and rebirth. And of course Steve's contributed by giving out small sizes of Keylime pies to every person who wanted one. Thank you. read more

I had my first key lime pie in Miami back in February and have been addicted ever since- very weird. One day, I was on instagram and it was almost like they heard me talk about trying to find good key lime pies in NY- insidertravel posted something about Steve's. I could not stop talking about wanting to go there so my fiance brought me there. It is tucked in what seems like the middle of no where in the red hook area of brooklyn but that was not an issue for us haha. They are located near the water so you can get a nice walk in before or after visiting this shop but when we went, it was a little chilly so we got the pie and left! We got a 8 inch pie to share at home but I couldn't wait so I got a chocolate covered keylime pie- served on a stick! Personally think that the chocolate added a nice touch but I didnt need it to be satisfied. The key lime pie had a nice tang and was super rich and dense! This is a place I see myself going back to when the warmer weather is here! read more

Service in here was excellent. Such a gem to find in the area! Who can say no to key lime pie???? We shared a coffee, had the classic key lime and the raspberry chocolate key lime pop. I was so happy when we were given the organic milk for our coffee!!! The key lime pie was my favorite. I felt the raspberry filling chocolate pop became way too sweet. I can imagine on a nice hot day how refreshing it would be. read more

i didnt understand what the hype is all about. The park next to it deserves the hype; great views and seating. Now back to the pie - it was OK. Nothing amazing nor memorable. It tastes like a typical key lime pie - tart plus a little sweet depending on what dipping you ordered this in. read more

I finally got to come here after wanting to try this place for so long. I got one of the cute little one person key lime pies. Soooo delicious. It is super convenient that it's a walk-up window. I love that you can dine at tables out front, or the waterfront is two steps away. I can't wait to come back to this place. read more

Too bad I didn't find out about this place earlier. Came across the pie shop as my family relaxed at the pier adjacent. We had the regular key lime and the raspberry swingle. The flavor of the key lime pie was the best I've had. Crust and filling was the perfect. The raspberry swingle was a chocolate covered key lime pie with raspberry portion on top. It was satisfying on a warm day. Prices here are ehh but the quality is superb so it's worth the try. read more

Tried the original and the white chocolate raspberry. Both were good, but just good. The actual key lime filling was very minimal with a standard graham cracker crust that had a salty aftertaste. The key lime filling itself was missing flavor and i was surprised there was no zest in the filling. The white chocolate raspberry was better but i will say the raspberry needs to be thicker, it oozes everywhere. I've had many varieties and was hoping for a strong competitor to Key West's pies. read more

Steve's came highly recommended by a foodie friend, so on a recent visit to Ikea (y'all, it's five minutes away--if you're already in the neighborhood...) I swung by for some pie. I should say now that I LOVE key lime pies. There's something about that tart creaminess that really does it for me--especially in the summer heat. Steve's delivers on the promise -- it's definitely good. The crust is crumbly and well-baked, and the pie is creamy--much thicker than most key lime pies, which made me want to dive down face first into it--but I wish it had been a little more tart. If you're not into that thick creaminess, maybe a few minutes in the freezer would help? I'm going to try it with the slice that's left and see if I love it more. We also tried the swizzle, which wasn't a hit with either of us (why mess with perfection?) but wasn't bad, just REALLY intense with the raspberry and chocolate flavors. People with a more significant sweet tooth might be more into it. read more
