Anyone been to Euphemia Haye in the last week?
Supposedly it re-opened on Friday, but I can't find any recent reviews with information. I'm wondering how different the menu is. I plan to go this week but wondered if any local blog covered it or anything. I haven't been since I was like maybe 12 years old. I'm excited to go…

What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Euphemia Haye is celebrated for its exceptional desserts, particularly the pies and cakes served in the unique upstairs Haye Loft. Diners also praise the attentive, long-standing service and well-prepared seafood and steak dishes. While some find the main courses good, the dessert experience is consistently the standout highlight.
"Great place!! The deserts are next level. We had a piece of pecan pie, peanut butter pie, and probably one of the best apple pie’s I have ever had. Two people could easily split one slice of any of them. Must go to place if you’re in the area.
And the bar is a small, well stocked cool place as well. A lot of options, and great service."

"Took my wife for her birthday. She had the snapper and i had the strip. Both were extremely well prepared and each had a delicious sauce that really elevated the meals. After dinner, you visit upstairs in the loft, the dessert room. They had a piano player taking requests. What a great atmosphere to enjoy your dessert. The dessert selection consists of the most beautiful pies and cakes, you'll have a difficult time deciding. We would definitely recommend!"

"5 Stars! A Gem of Longboat Key!
Nestled upstairs, The Haye Loft offers a funky and fun atmosphere that stands out as the best vibe on Longboat Key. It's not just a dining spot; it's an experience. The desserts, housemade daily, are a bountiful delight with the chocolate cake, peanut butter pie, and brownies deserving a special mention!
The magic of the place is further enhanced by Georgette, who not only provides insightful tours and history of the restaurant but also guides patrons through the tempting dessert options at the dessert bar. The service is nothing short of excellent, carried out by seasoned servers whose tenure spans years, and sometimes, decades. This continuity of staff adds a layer of warmth and familiarity to the service that is rare to find.
In summary, The Haye Loft is not just about great food; it's about the magical experience that begins the moment you step in. This place should have 5 stars.
