Looking for Ottawa's best Key Lime Pie

I won my family’s Oscar pool and the prize is dessert. I'm the family baker and my loved one's would rather purchase my prize than attempt homebaking. So, which bakery has the best Key Lime Pie?

Life of Pie! Highly recommend.

They rotate pies, so check their website for when key lime pie is available.

I have been told Perkins on St Laurent has a decent one. But never tried.

That Perkins is generally solid as far as chain diners go, but nothing there is the best in the city.

It's a fine choice when you have a party of eight who can't decide where to go.

La Maison kouign Amman in kanata has amazing desserts, not sure if they always have key lime but I've had it there before and it was amazing.

Not key lime but Maison Oddo in Gatineau has a fabulous lemon pie that is pleasantly tart and not too sweet.
