Ricchi e Poveri in full
Ricchi e Poveri looks out over the old port and does something almost nobody else in Skiathos does: contemporary tapas. Small, seasonal Mediterranean plates rather than a taverna menu, designed to be shared and ordered in waves.
The format works well here. Reviewers describe the plates as spot on β very tasty, varied and plentiful β which is the hard part of tapas, since the temptation is to serve small portions of ordinary food at a premium. The wine list draws its own praise.
Service is where it separates itself. It comes up again and again in the reviews, rated 10 out of 10, with the team named personally. That is unusual, and it is reflected in the scores: 4.7 on Google, 4.6 on Tripadvisor and 4.6 on Restaurant Guru across 1,326 reviews β three platforms in near-perfect agreement across a large sample.
More than one reviewer calls it the best restaurant on the island. That is enthusiasm rather than consensus, but it is a genuinely strong, well-run kitchen and the best option in town if you want to eat well without committing to a full three-course taverna dinner.
