Although known for their historic Mutton Chop and the world’s largest collection of Pipes, they had other components that are arguably better than the chop itself. Main items such as the Mutton Chop, Filet Mignonette and decent Sirloin Steak were enjoyable, but the Standouts of the meal were surprisingly the deserts and the cream spinach. The cons of this historical experience, is the prices don’t always match the quality or taste of their dishes. We do not recommend getting the $29.00 Maryland lump crab cakes, as they come in low quantity and quality.
Their “Legendary” Mutton Chop is tender with a nice sear, but the sauce isn’t incredible and the meal is carried by its counterparts.
As before mentioned, the steakhouses highlights are their side dishes and desserts.
But, by far the highlight of our meal at Keen’s was their old fashioned Key Lime Pie and the Red Berry Bibble. Both traditional desserts are made in house and have their own distinct strengths.
The Key Lime Pie has the perfect lime cream consistency while still being based on a nicely toasted graham cracker base. The two consistency’s combined make for the best traditional Key Lime Pie we have tried to date.
The Red Berry Bibble was comprised of strawberry, cranberry and blueberry jam topped with light vanilla cream. If you’re looking for a fruity and fun yet high quality dessert, we recommend the Red Berry Bibble.
In conclusion, taking into the account the historical location and the quality range of foods for a Steak House, we rate Keen’s Steakhouse a solid:
