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, above the restaurant, is a must for their collection of delectable desserts, exotic coffees, vintage ports, top-shelf spirits and nightly live music.
