Dva Ribara
About
Dva Ribara is a cherished family‑run restaurant in Hvar, celebrating over five decades of Mediterranean culinary traditions. Its menu showcases a vibrant array of seafood and meat dishes, all crafted with locally sourced ingredients and a touch of homemade freshness—olive oil and wine produced right on the premises add authenticity and depth to every bite. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating; the latter provides a picturesque sea‑view terrace that becomes a favored spot for diners seeking a relaxed, breezy atmosphere. Serviced by warm, attentive staff, guests consistently praise the freshness of the fish, the quality of the house‑made wine, and the genuine hospitality that feels like a home‑invited dinner. A typical visit to Dva Ribara is about 90 minutes, allowing plenty of time for a leisurely meal, a glass of local wine, and a chat with the staff. While walk‑ins are accepted, the seating schedule is limited to 1 hour and 30 minutes per reservation, so arriving early or booking a table is recommended, especially during peak seasons. Guests leave with a memorable taste of Hvar’s sea‑faring heritage and a sense that they have experienced a local secret since 1970.
