I enjoyed it

Buffet where you pay for every dish you add. Two dishes are €10. Not a lot of protein in the dishes, but I enjoyed it. I also had a raw chocolate cake for €6.

Pros: Vegan and veggie, Good prices

Cons: No wifi, Lack of protein

Comfort food, huge portions!

I really enjoyed my meal at La Cucina. You get to create your own dish by choosing different options on the menu, so I tried the lasagne and potato salad. Both were very wholesome and delicious. I think the menu changes everyday. They also have nice outdoor seating. Huuuuge portions!

Best Vegan Food. EVER

Mediterranean inspired vegan food which was the best Vegan meal I have ever had! Delicate flavours, comforting foods and excellent value. I cannot reccomend this place enough. So much so that we may visit a 2nd time before we leave. Perfect!

Pros: Great staff , Excellent menu, Brilliant menu

Simple, delicious, uniquely Italian vegan food.

Delicious food. Gave us a lovely vegan glimpse into Sicilian food on our first night in Italy. The chickpea fritters are super unique and terrific. The drunken broccoli was spot on. And the hazelnut pudding for desert, a masterpiece. For two we shared a plate with 4 items off the menu (which was full of vegan options) and a dessert, which came out to around €21. Highly recommended.

Pros: Lots of vegan options. Unique Sicilian food.

One of My Favorite Vegan Restaurants

I had cous cous and artichoke. My friend had rice, arancini, and red cabbage.

We both had vegan dessert! Yum!

They also have takeaway!

€10 for 2 choices
€12 for 3
€14 for 4

*Update - I've gone back several times since eating here the first time. There are always new things to try and the service is always so nice.

We felt happy and thankful

We arrived at the restaurant late and without reservation. We were told we had to wait at least 20/30 min, since it was cold outside we were offered to wait inside. Very soon the waiters came out with an idea and a small table for two was improvised. Despite the fact that the restaurant was full and busy, we were served soon and the food was delicious. We had a great dinner and we left happy and thankful. Recommended!

Pros: Vegan options , Cosy, Accommodating staff

Amazing!

Came here twice during a 3 night stay in Catania. The restaurant is modern and the waiting staff are really friendly.
The food is phenomenal with most of the menu being vegan when I visited. The menu is clear as to what is vegan and not.
Both times I had a mixed plate of 4 dishes for €14. While I suppose this could seem pricey (especially for Catania) the food really was a cut above and I was happy to pay.
Try to get there early as it gets really busy in the evening.

Small but perfectly formed

Small buffet selection with many vegan options available. Friendly English speaking staff & a lovely cool restaurant space. No sweets or coffee available though. Was very busy around lunchtime.

Lovely veggie place in the heart of Catania

We had a very tasty lunch today there - it was very refreshing to have relatively healthy food after few days on pizza&pasta. You can choose from different dishes (vegan/vegetarian), the english speaking staff was happy to explain everything. We tried two plates with three options each (you pay 12€ for one plate) and everything was very tasty, I must say though that for example chickpea fritters weren't probably profoundly healthy;) (yet good). Nice ambiente, it was almost full around 13:00 (many locals). Baby friendly (baby chair & changing table availible).

Pros: Excellent food, Friendly staff, Nice ambiente

Cons: A bit pricey

Good and healthy food but simple and a bit pricey

This vegetarian restaurant offers a buffet with many vegan options (the waiter is very helpful). You can ask for 2, 3 or 4 different dishes from 10 to 14 euros resp. They also had two vegan desserts (hazelnut and chocolate puddings). Portions are generous and the food is tasty, made of good products. But it's more like a canteen with sometimes rather simple dishes and 14 euros for a big plate is expensive for Catania. The staff is very friendly and the place is pleasant so stopping here is usually a good idea, namely if you look for healthy food.

Pros: good food, friendly staff, nice place, generous portions

Cons: not 100% vegan, pricey, rather simple

Fresh organic food

The waiter was welcoming and explained which dishes were vegan. The lunch options are all on display so you can see what you are ordering. They were mainly focussed around seasonal vegetables and included a pumpkin dish which I particularly enjoyed.
A plate with three items made quite a substantial lunch and was good value especially given the central location.

Pros: Good location, Good vegan options, Good service

Cons: Seating slightly cramped

Good food and nice service

We liked the food. During lunch time it is more like a canteen, but that didn‘t bother us. And a lot of locals seemed to like it as well. In the evening you get a different menu. We liked both and the service was really nice as well!!

Incredible Vegan Options!

We absolutely loved the range of food and organic wines/Draught Beers. Option to purchase one meal (between 7-9€) or two mains for €10, three mains for €12 or four for €14. We chose three for €12 and had the organic pasta with basil, vegan vegetable fritters and the summer salad, with my partner having the same but switching the salad for roasted potatoes (which were roasted to perfection!). We also tried the peach and vanilla jelly for dessert. The staff were very friendly and the food was served quickly, however you may need to book as it can get very busy. Also note that I understand the menu to change regularly and what is available day to day my differ.

Pros: So many vegan options, for dessert too!, Friendly staff, Clean restaurant, indoor/outdoor seating.

Cons: Expensive, €46 for dinner, dessert + wine for 2., Food was a little oily.

Lovely vegan lunch

I went here for lunch and I had a lovely meal! They have all their food on display and I pricewise there was the option to choose (I think) 2, 3 or 4 components. They had some different salads, some rice, some fritters baked aubergines, some seitan. Plenty of choices and food was tasty! Staff took the time to explain what the options were and I thought it was nice to be able to see the food I could choose from. Portion size pretty good. Had some nice local beer with my lunch. It is a pretty informal setting and there's an open kitchen.

Pros: Plenty of choices, Friendly people, You can see the food and then choose

Lunch buffet

We had a very filling lunch here. Most of the lunch buffet is vegan with only a few dishes that were vegetarian. You pick two items for €10, 3 for €12 or 4 for €14. We had three plates of 4 items each for 2 adults and 2 kids and tried a variety of the vegan dishes on the buffet. They also have vegan dessert you can purchase a la Carte. Most of the dishes were interesting vegetables. They also had tempura, seitan cutlets, cous cous and rice dishes. Everything was tasty. The dinner may be a traditional menu and not a buffet but check to be sure.

Pros: Variety of vegan food , Good tasting , Reasonable portions and prices

Food full o savor

Great place with warm friendly staff. Dishes are mostly vegan and gluten free. From the menu only two things were vegetarian. The portions are enough to get a full belly and the prices are very affordable.

So happy I found this place in the heart of Catania downtown. Big portions in the Italian buffet style. The potato, artichoke veggie dish was excellent. Everything one dreams of for eating a health meal is there. Enjoy.

Fresh Clean and Tasty!

I felt the clean and fresh atmosphere as I entered the restaurant. The lunch meals that day were 95% Plantbased. Well spiced... fresh and seasonal ingredients. The people working there are very gentle. I think it is very important to have a place like La Cucina Dei Colori at Catania. I’m glad I went there! ❤️❤️❤️

Pros: big portions, good prices, clean
