“We had a great experience tonight! With two littles, they knowingly placed us in front of the fish tank to help with entertainment. Our server was speedy, kind, and had honest and helpful recommendations for the food. Everything was fast, fresh, and delicious. The lobster bisque, lobster mac and cheese, Salmon Renee, and Blood Orange Margarita were the table faves! We are Tampa locals and will be back!”

“My new favorite LBK restaurant! The Grouper Ruben is AMAZING!”

“Wish we lived closer to come all the time!! Julie provided the best service! The owners came to the table and made us feel like family! Food was exceptional! Went for my birthday and it truly felt llle a special evening! We had the best table too. With a lovely view! Had the calamari, bruschetta, chicken parm, linguine and calls, chicken piccata, veal, grouper, ravioli. Kids chicken and meatballs… we had a big group and everyone was more than happy with their meal!”

“Ambience was pleasant and quaint inside. Service was a bit slow but very friendly, a bus person would have helped the 2 servers that were on, as it was a Saturday night in the off season. The food was good the Veal Parmesan was good but had way too much sauce on it, as did the pasta with it. The Rigatoni with Meatballs was also very heavy on the sauce. The sauce was very acidic so it was overwhelming the dishes. The Cannoli's and the bread were excellent. I would go again but I'd ask for light on the sauce or choice differently.”

“An Exquisite Culinary Gem — Worth Every Bite and Every Moment! Euphemia Haye is nothing short of a culinary treasure on Longboat Key — a rare combination of world-class cuisine, romantic ambiance, and impeccable service that turns a meal into a memory. Extraordinary doesn’t begin to cover it. 😊Every dish was prepared with intentionality, artistry, and flavors that sing. The peppered steak was cooked to perfection, bursting with bold seasoning and succulent texture. Even the salads were elevated: fresh, inventive, and beautifully plated. But wait until you ascend to the Haye Loft — a magical dessert and after-dinner cocktail lounge unlike anything we’ve experienced. We were dazzled by the live music, the cozy, retro-cool vibe, and of course… the legendary dessert bar. From the banana cream pie to the flourless chocolate torte, every sweet was handcrafted, decadent, and delightful. Service was flawless throughout. The staff were knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the food and experience. They anticipated our needs before we even realized we had them — the mark of true hospitality excellence. Whether you’re celebrating something special or simply want to enjoy one of the finest dining experiences in Florida, Euphemia Haye is unmissable. It’s more than a restaurant — it’s a destination. And we’ll be returning every chance we get. Bravo to the entire team!🌟”
