When the original Bascom came to Florida at the turn of the last century to help Henry Flagler build the Key West Railroad, he brought with him his love for thick cut chops and juicy steaks. During his travels he also discovered the bounties of fresh native Florida seafood.

We have brought all of his favorites together in a true American Chop House that pays tribute to Bascom's hearty appetite and a passion for great steaks, chops and fresh seafood.

In his honor, we have made Bascom's Chop House a comfortable, yet elegant, American restaurant. We are proud to offer a superbly crafted wine list and American Mid-Western beef, aged to our own exacting specifications to ensure the most tender and flavorful steaks served anywhere at any price. And, true to our Bascom's Chop House name, we also offer hand-cut veal, pork and lamb chops all prepared to perfection, as well as a great selection of native seafood delivered fresh daily.

    Visited (solo) about three years ago when passing through. It was so good I made it a destination for my wife and I on this trip and it did not disappoint! She loved it! If we lived nearby, it would be our “go-to” place. We will now route our flights through PIE, when possible, and make sure we stop. The food and service were tremendous, thank you!

    Food was delicious and service was great. For ambiance I wish I could give negative 5 stars. This applies to the upstairs dining hall we were seated in which was a large white room like a church fellowship hall. Terrible environment for a date. The downstairs dining room (shown in photos on the website) looked terrific for date night, more private tables, wood panel, soft lighting. Should have walked out when taken upstairs.

    We had an amazing dinner. The food was fabulous! Our waiter Jarrod was one of the best we ever had. He was personable, knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. The blueberry lemon martini is amazing as is the Bascomb’s bread pudding

    We were celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary the next day and decided to try out Bascom Chop House. We were welcomed by such a friendly staff. Definitely Bebe was off the charts starting with Stone Crabs, salad filet mignon and lobster. We enjoyed a chocolate lava cake for dessert. To our surprise we were entertained by a very talented singer were able to dance in a very romantic atmosphere. Highly recommended

    Celebrated my husband's birthday. Very pleased with the food and wine. Unfortunately my favorite dish on the menus was not available (Duck) however. the prime rib and filet were outstanding. Of course the fried lobster is and was always delicious.
