  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Located just off Sonoma Plaza, Cafe La Haye offers an appealingly unfussy sophistication. The split-level dining room holds just a dozen or so tables, but its open kitchen, raftered ceiling and walls adorned with modern art create a vibrant energy that’s contagious.
Convivial owner Saul Gropman and chef Jeffrey Lloyd make a formidable team. Lloyd, former executive chef of restaurant Michael Mina, offers a seasonal menu that’s discreet in its complexity, featuring the sort of dishes that seem to get better with each bite.
Gropman’s wine list comprises a modest 100 bottles, but it’s a smart, well-focused selection -

    I was looking for a special place to celebrate my husbands birthday with our son and found LaHaye off of the Sonoma Square and it looked perfect. Then I read the reviews and was even more excited to try it. And we all couldn’t have been happier. The food was incredible and everyone was so friendly. Truly a special evening.

    The ambience, service, and food at Cafe La Haye were impeccable. The dinning room, which is nicely decorated with artwork, has an intimate feel. Service was friendly and efficient. Every dish from the beef carpaccio appetizer to the Quail and Filet Mignon mains to the almond cake and chocolate silk pie desserts were amazing. We highly recommend Cafe La Haye!
