Anatoli
Crowning the Venetian Castle, the picture-perfect blue-and-white painted restaurant—a converted barn—enjoys probably the most breathtaking views in Skopelos Town, overlooking the glittering Aegean and the Panagitsa Church below. Traditional Greek fare like baked aubergines, souvlaki, and stuffed peppers are on the menu, plus plenty of local liqueurs. Tap into a Greek vein with owner Giorgo Xithari, who, along with local musicians and friends, will strum up a storm after 9:30 pm on his bouzouki and sing rembetika, traditional Greek acoustic blues.
Alexander's Garden Restaurant
At this little garden restaurant on the hillside, a 200-year-old well in the center of the elegant, leafy terrace produces its own natural spring water, a perfect addition to a traditional meal. Everything that comes from the kitchen is an old-time classic—including bell peppers stuffed with cheese, garlic, and tomato, and the restaurant's keftedakia, meatballs made with a secret recipe. This lovely little hideaway is a 10-minute walk uphill from the port; if you lose your way, just ask, as everyone knows this island institution.

Anna's Restaurant
Molos
A favorite among the cluster of tavernas near the far end at the old port serves quality magirefta (dishes cooked ahead in the oven), along with a big dose of hospitality. Chef/owner Panayiotis sometimes takes time to liven things up with live music, stepping out from serving seafood pastas and such Skopelos specialties as stuffed courgette flowers.
Muses
This eminently romantic spot serves seafood and traditional Greek fare at a quiet edge of the seafront, with the sea caressing the beach just a few feet from the tables as classical music tinkles in the background. Fresh fish is grilled with a blend of mountain herbs and the succulent lamb lemonato (slow-roasted with garlic, salt, and lemon) falls off the bone. Attentive service is a standout, even on this friendly island.
Ta Kymata
Spirited brothers Andreas, Riginos, and Christophoros enthusiastically run the seafront taverna that has belonged to their family since 1896, serving traditional Skopelos recipes. The signature dish is Tis Maharas, an intense, pungent, yet surprisingly light mix of vegetables and cheeses with a creamy sauce, dedicated to the brothers' grandmother, whose name Mahi means battle and whose physical strength and towering height was said to ensure there was never any trouble at the taverna.
