Longboat Key is home to Euphemia Haye, regarded as “the area’s most extraordinary restaurant” by Frommer’s Travel Guides, “among the top 1 percent in the nation” by Zagat, and a Wine Spectator multi-year Award of Excellence winner. Chef and cookbook author Raymond and D’Arcy Arpke combine classical training, an innovative flair and a love for fresh foods to offer consistently outstanding creations including their signature Caesar Salad, Crisp Roast Duckling, and flambéed Prime Peppered Steak.  The Haye Loft and Dessert Room, above the restaurant, is a must for their collection of delectable desserts, exotic coffees, vintage ports, and top-shelf spirits.
