    Good Food

    Had to arrange a last minute family dinner in August and the restaurant was very accommodating. The food was good and because of the size of the party I understood why the food came out at varying moments. But I will say the food was tasty though. The only downside it was the middle of a heat wave and the AC had issues but overall the abidance is nice and the prices are good.

    Not recommended

    We went at the suggestion of the Public Theatre for a dinner break during the show Gatz. Everything was disappointing. The service was inept and the food was unappetizing.

    Maybe second time is a charm

    I went to Colors last summer and thought the food was good but not great. After shopping for lighting with a friend on bowery street we decided to check it out again last Saturday. The food was awesome! I had the shrimp with green goddess sauce it was absolutely incredible. For an entree I had the hanger steak. and it was melt in your mouth delicious. We're actually going back tomorrorw night for a friend's birthday. They told us they have a new chef and it definitely shows. They also have upped the ante with the cocktails, we ordered colors cocktails and after a few were feeling very, very good. Happy to see this a restaurant with such a good cause doing better. The place wasn't packed but it was definitely a buzz even the music was better or maybe that was in my head from the cocktails.

    Not Very Colorful

    I wanted to try Colors for months now, since I read that the worked had been from the displaced WTC restaurant and wanted to show my support. After theatre at the next-door Public last night, my friend and I tried it. Colors was a "drab" experience. First of all, there were only two other people in the restaurant which gave the dinner a very lonely feeling. Eerie, almost! Second, we were seated at a very small table, even though none of the other bigger tables were used the entire time we were there (no other customers). Service was amiss. They brought us the wrong drink order to start. It took a bit of a long time for them to take our food order, even though they were not at all busy. The food was not a good value, too pricy for the quality. My fish was actually cold. I wanted to show my support for the restaurant, but sorry to say I will probably not be back to Colors.

    Loved it

    My girlfriend and I come to NY often and we have loved our experiences at Colors every time. The staff is very friendly, the food is excellent, and the ambiance is great.

    Excellent New Year's Dinner

    We were hesitant to spend our New Year's Eve dining here given the reviews; however, we were not disappointed! The menu was simple, yet not boring. It's refreshing to finally see a menu that isn't overstimulated and reminiscent of eating at a diner. We thoroughly enjoyed the tapas. I was almost too full to eat my main course, but my salmon mofongo was so delicious that I polished it off. My husband has the duck and raved about it. Our friends were also pleased with their meals. The presentation was pleasing and the atmosphere was relaxed. We never felt rushed or neglected. The staff was friendly, attentive and accomodating. Eat here!

    Don't Waste Your Time

    I went here with my husband and in-laws thinking it would be a good neighborhood establishment. The menu was extremely limited and they were out of half of the items. This is supposed to be a worldly restaurant and there was nothing about the menu, service or experience that represented this. There were maybe 3 tables occupied and the service and food were substandard. We couldn't wait to get out!!
