La Cucina Dei Colori In Catania

Discovered thanks to a friend, we ate very well, a dish with three tastings; couscous with vegetables and almonds, white cabbage with lemon and chilli and millet croquette all delicious, like the chocolate and coconut cake. Welcoming environment, very knowledgeable and kind staff, especially Giuseppe. Highly recommended

Nice place to eat something different, vegetarian and with a genuine flavour. The idea of ​​a single dish with the number of dishes to choose from is nice.

Lots of vegan options! Delicious food with particular mention of the panelle, convivial tables, welcoming environment and very honest prices. Everything perfect!

Located in the heart of Catania, La Cucina Dei Colori offers a vibrant mix of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free dishes, with a focus on local ingredients and creative pairings. With indoor and outdoor seating, the restaurant’s indoor space features long communal tables that encourage a casual and social dining experience. They also serve a range of drinks and cocktails, including a refreshing Earl Grey Kombucha, which I thoroughly enjoyed during my visit. I sampled the Millet Croquettes, Sweet and Sour Pumpkin, and Vegan Pulled. Unfortunately, despite ordering a starter and a main, everything arrived together on the same plate, which felt a bit rushed. The Millet Croquettes were nicely prepared but not exceptional, and at €8 for just three small pieces, the portion felt overpriced. The Vegan Pulled was underwhelming—lacking in bold flavors or seasoning that could have made it stand out. On the bright side, the Sweet and Sour Pumpkin was deliciously tangy and full of flavor, a definite highlight of the meal. However, I found the inclusion of sharp rosemary stalks in the dish problematic; these should have been removed or at least flagged on the menu as they could be a choking hazard—like the vegan equivalent of fish bones! Portion sizes were modest for all the dishes, which left me wanting more. While the food was enjoyable overall, the prices felt steep for what was offered, especially given the small servings. The picture above was starter, main and side dish. This portion size I would consider a main course alone. And €24 euros for this is a steep price. La Cucina Dei Colori does have a lot going for it: a welcoming atmosphere, diverse menu options (from starters and mains to desserts), and a commitment to using local products in their drinks and dishes. However, I would recommend they focus on improving portion sizes, presentation, and ensuring that potentially hazardous elements like rosemary stalks are addressed. For now, it’s a spot worth visiting for its creative vibe and standout items like the Sweet and Sour Pumpkin, but with room for improvement on execution.

Excellent choice for those who want to eat vegetarian cuisine in Catania. Honest prices.

The restaurant was very beautiful at a glance, beautiful decor. The food was delicious, the bread was well made and the panelle were also excellent. The vegan pulled was very good, you could taste the seitan a lot, the white food was good, I can say I had a positive experience.

Discovered by chance last September while strolling the streets of Catania and what a magnificent surprise! The dishes are very well prepared, very colorful and very tasty. A treat for vegetarians. The staff is very cheerful and friendly. Special mention to the chocolate dessert...

Lovely staff and food delicious :) thanks

I gladly return to Catania also to taste the dishes of Cucina dei Colori. Genuine products, then the desserts... they are incredibly good! We should all eat like this all the time, we would live better. The staff is dynamic and friendly. I will be back again in the next few days. Thank you so much,

Bellissima scoperta, incuriosito dal "tavolo sociale"! Piatti squisiti, personale molto gentile. Lo consiglio a chi dovesse trovarsi dalle parti di piazza Stesicoro o via Etnea.
