Fodor's Expert Review Colony
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Brown winged leather armchairs and a long bar at the entrance make Colony a great place to share a drink and a leisurely conversation. The space, once used as storage by the British Railroad Company, is vast but it fills up Thursday nights when there's live music, and on weekends. The menu offers familiar options like lamb kebabs with tabbouleh and chestnut gnocchi. The bar is well stocked, especially with whisky, and a rotating cocktail list offers bright and tasty drinks. Be sure to order desserts like the tahini ice cream with halva parfait or the strawberry cassata.
