Simply delicious - Edit
We went there following a recommendation of our host at Catania and were not disappointed. Each of our four dishes was really delicious, neither boring nor over-sophisticated, a wonderful balance between traditional recipes and innovative vegan cookery.
Read moreThe place is simply but nicely decorated, but could be considered not too comfortable due to lack of space (or for people who don't like eating at a long table and sitting on benches).
Great variety of wine and other beverages, many labelled vegan.
Pros: Fresh made food, but oh so quick!, Great variety of local wines etc., Friendly staff
Cons: Why not replace cheese e.g. with vegan things?

Super chouette concept ! - Edit
Les serveur.se.s étaient vraiment sympa et nous ont bien expliqué le concept qui est de choisir un nombre de plat et de tout avoir ensemble dans son assiette. Tout ce qu'on a pris était super bon et les options véganes sont bien indiquées sur le menu à l'entrée.
Read morePros: Beaucoup d'options du jour, Tout était très bon et frais, Concept original

Very yummy vegetarian/vegan food - Edit
Every dish we selected was very good, but we preferred the primi & secondi over dessert. Even gluten free and raw options were available. But the menu changes frequently.

Delicious local food - Edit
Went there twice, with non-vegans who also enjoyed, food is super tasty and they use only local food. Really loved the concept and the food!! Broccoli were amazing, also the vegan pulled and the the raw chocolate cake! Staff is super nice :)

Nice spot, good food, friendly staff - Edit
I've come here thanks to the good reviews but also to a personal recommendation. The atmosphere is nice, staff is friendly and food is good. You can make your own plate by choosing from different items on the menu including first and second course but also side vegetables. I've tried their vegan pulled, the millet croquets and baked potatoes. The portion is quite big and fulfilling. I've also tried one dessert: the hazelnut pudding (delicious!). To drink I've tried a local kombucha, very good. Recommended when in Catania.

Yummy and friendly - Edit
Had an amazing supper here just after arriving in Catania. Fun, friendly, relaxed vibe and lots of different dishes. I think about 65% vegan / 35% vegetarian.

Very decent deli-style food - Edit
La Cucina dei Colori is an all-vegetarian restaurant where you pick what you want from the service counter, deli style. Items are clearly marked on the menu board as vegan or gluten-free, but it's all in Italian—the staff will be happy to translate for you though, or you can just look at what's offered today.
Read moreYou can order a single item, or get a combo plate with 2, 3, or 4 items for a discounted total. 4 items will definitely fill your tummy. They have soda, kombucha, and wine, and a few desserts too. The kombucha tasted harder than I am used to back home, so if you avoid alcohol you might not want that. Take note: Most dishes are not hot, they are just slightly warm.

Pros: Large selection of items., At least half the offerings are vegan., Friendly staff.
Cons: Food isn't hot.

Mediterrane Catina Food - Edit
We went there twice because they offer different items every day. We really appreciated that the staff cared about vegan options and clearly told us which dishes were vegan. You can choose a combination of different meals served on one plate — either 2, 3, or 4 options. For us, the 3-meal combo was the most suitable. Our favorite items were the chickpea fritters and the gnocchi. They also take care of some stray cats, which is just an extra point in my book.

Nice place that could use a bit more flavour - Edit
I think the vibe of this restaurant was really nice and everything on the menu sounded delicious. But in the end most of the food we ordered was a bit bland and could have used a bit more salt and/or spices/herbs. I expected a bit more but the food was still good.
Read moreWe went there without a reservation and still got a table, but maybe we were lucky.
Pros: Friendliness of staff, Atmosphere
Cons: Food was a bit bland

Fresh, vibrant and friendly - Edit
The sweet and sour red cabbage was utterly delicious! Definitely the best cabbage dish I’ve had.
Read morePortions are a little bit small and not hugely filling for me unless I got a lot of dishes, but then the price point is higher so isn’t as good of value.
I came here twice when in Catania and would definitely recommend making a reservation here.It’s quite loud inside and tables are communal
Pros: Food arrived quickly , Fresh foods that once gone are gone
Cons: Let street seller in, Can be a bit loud

A palette of tastiness - Edit
Cozy little restaurant with friendly staff. They suggested the selection of various meals we eventually had and I am glad we took the advice. Everything was tasty and I especially liked the couscous salad and the lasagna. The walnut bread was delicious too. Recommended!

Great veggie/vegan restaurant in Catania! - Edit
This was my second time at La Cucina Dei Colori and I had a very good experience. There aren’t many vegan places in Catania so this is a welcome surprise . The food is varied and delicious and the staff were friendly and helpful. The outside tables really enhance the dining experience! The first time I went we waited quite a while but this time the food was served quickly and efficiently. I definitely recommend it!

Very disappointing experience - Edit
We were treated rudely by this restaurant. We arrived just prior to opening to see if we could secure a table for dinner. They offered us either a 30 minute seating outside, as they said the outside tables were booked, or a position at the front table inside, which we accepted. When we returned at opening less than 10 minutes later they had given the booking to someone else (the only people in the restaurant). They were unapologetic about this and offered us seating towards the back of the restaurant near the kitchen which was totally unsuitable. If they weren’t going to hold the table for us they shouldn’t have gone through the pretence of taking our name as a booking. They clearly knew the people they had given the table to & we can only assume they are not interested in tourists. This was a very disappointing experience.

I like them - Edit
There are few vegetarian places in the Catania, so I appreciate every of them. But in La Cucina Dei Colori the food was really good and they had several vegan options, I was very glad.
