Excellent overall! Thick nilla wafer and crushed nut crust adds a complementary dimension to the classic pie. Very good, tart pie filling. Homestyle presentation.
Engaging classic KLP flavor! Sweetness and tartness wrap the tongue! However, not a fresh presentation, poor ratio of pie to crust (too much crust), and a sandy crust lowers the rating.
Frozen-style KLP, yet surprisingly smooth and silky is a pleasant, homestyle way! Grand, family-size portion with a great classic crust. Could use a dash more color and key lime flavor.
Excellent, refreshing key lime flavor. Crumbly crust, but flavorful! Do-it-yourself presentation. Light whip cream and the level of pie filling was a bit thin; needed to be thicker.
A hint of tartness, but we need more! It's most likely lime instead of Key Lime. Texture is more like a cheesecake, custardy. Overall good presentation, but neutral flavor.
A beautiful pie presentation with a raspberry dressing to complement the key lime flavor. However, the pie was not tart enough for our tongues. More of a custard consistency than pie filling. Texture was smooth as silk though.
A cool/refreshing pie with a great graham cracker crust flavor, although a bit soft. Pie is a bit icee and has a slight coconut texture and grain that is interesting. A sloppy appearance and liquidly whip cream isn't appealing. Portion size is average.
