While they may have some international fare, it is way too salty. The baba ganoush was not fit for consumption. The falafel was too salty and under cooked in spite of my ordering it crocante because another patron returned her order as undercooked. The trout ravioli was too salty. The fish rolls were ok, perhaps because they used soy sauce... More

The people behind Colors are clearly better authors than cooks. The menu promises tantalizing dishes that fail to deliver. The spicy pesto pasta is mild and flavourless; the mexican espresso fudge brownie dry and listless. It seems as though the cooks never tasted their meals. Go somewhere else. More

I visited this restaurant after recommendations from Lonely Planet and Trip Advisor. I was there for lunch during the week so it fairly quiet and I had the choice of where to sit. I chose to wander upstairs and initially decided to sit on the couches in the corner of the room but found them deceptively incredibly uncomfortable. So I... More

This restaurant has upstairs and downstairs seating and a laid-back  vibe.  The entrees are priced around S25. We ordered Kashmir Beef Curry that came with tasty pink coconut rice, and Thai Chicken noodle. Both were ok but the wine by the glass wasn't Merlot, it was Malo.  Colors gives you decent food for a good price and creatively tries to... More

We were looking for something beyond the Menu Turistico that all of Peru seems to think we Gringos are looking for. Colors had such offerings, but unfortunately failed to execute. I had a cheeseburger (I know... after all my complaining about menu turistico, why a cheeseburger?) but they made it sound so attractive: Filet Mignon cheeseburger on a barley bun... More

Came here with family (total 8 of us) after one had read about it in a guidebook. For the table of 8 we had to sit downstairs near the front door (cold drafts) but we managed. All night long they played ABBA songs.... sometimes in Spanish.... everytime I hear ABBA I will think of this restaurant. Supposedly the fish here... More

We came here because it was well reviewed on Trip advisor and Lonely Planet. The day before we had followed the recommendation to Mojsa which was fantastic. Colours on the other hand was terrible. The food was rubbish and disgusting. We ordered a curry which came with pink rice which tasted like butter and nothing else. It was the worst... More
