Good selection of food for varying tastes. We love seafood, so we each ordered a different style of shrimp. Each one was a winner. Service was friendly and helpful, especially for us who were new to Columbian food. Portions are quite large, so plan to take home a doggie bag! We will be back! read more

So I was walking back from UPS and decided to stop in and grab a bite. Once I walked in, I was hit with the amazing sense of all the delicious food that was cooking. The atmosphere was welcoming and lively. I was greeted promptly by a friendly young lady at the front and she suggested that I try the beef empanadas. They only cost a few dollars so I went ahead and bought two. So as I walked to the car, which was conveniently parked in the lot behind the restaurant, I immediately unwrapped my empanada. At first, I thought it was going to be like other empanadas that I've tried which have a crispy shell however these empanadas are similar in a way, but are very different in texture. These empanadas are a bit softer on the outside and have a denser inside filling which include potatoes and beef and it was quite delicious. I thought I could eat both of them, but after one I was full. I will definitely be back to the restaurant since I'm always in that area and it's literally five minutes from where I live. I can't wait to try other items on their menu. read more

Enjoyed my recent dinner here- the portions are huge so I opted for a side of sweet plantains (maduros) and shared a Bandeja Paisa which was massive and came with steak, two eggs, avocado, rice, beans, sausage, arepa and chicharron.. it was definitely enough for two people and we had enough leftovers for at least two breakfasts. The staff is really sweet, very family like. I also had a soursop juice smoothie with milk- which was delicious. read more

10/10 - Truly the best Colombian food around! Sabor de Mi Tierra is absolutely top notch. We've been coming here since the pandemic -- they opened just a week before lockdown, and we supported them with takeout back then. Once we were able to dine in, we've been coming back nonstop ever since. The food is incredible, hands down the best Colombian food in the area (and honestly much better than Noches -- less salty, more flavorful, and always consistent). Everything is on point whether you come for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. My go-to is the carne asada con arepa y queso, and my wife always gets the huevos rancheros. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The service is just as amazing as the food. Every single server is kind, welcoming, and so sweet. Our favorites are Liliana and Jennifer -- total sweethearts. The owner, Carlos, is wonderful too. Every time we walk in, we feel like family. If you're in the area, you have to stop by Sabor de Mi Tierra. Incredible food, incredible people -- highly recommend! read more

Came here on a Friday night on my way home to order some food to go. There was parking in the back, which in that area, is always helpful. When I came in, there were a few patrons sitting down to eat. I ordered the grilled steak, which came with two sides. I had the white rice, bean sauce and opted for an additional side of tostones. Everything was pretty good, though i wish the tostones were fried a bit crispier. Service was good and fast. Very cozy vibes in the restaurant read more

I walked in and was pleasantly surprised by holiday decor but tastefully done, no overcrowding. The staff was friendly. I've had Colombian food before and at this specific restaurant but not this location. I've been to the one in Verona. I ordered the grilled salmon with plantains and yellow rice. All was good. Temp of good was satisfying. The salmon was a tad dry (I probably should have said medium well). It was still tasty. I also had a cup of coffee. read more

Wonderful Colombian spot with great ambiance, and large selection of national dishes and a great bakery. The empanadas were solid, the pastel de pollo was like cornbread with chicken baked in. Crispy chicharrones! Their bakery didn't disappoint the ham and cheese croissant was good and the pañuelo colombiano was huge! Great service, I'd love to come back when in the area. Solid value read more

My fiancé has never tried Colombian food before (he's from the west coast) so I had to put him on. Not only was the food excellent with big portions, the service here is OUTSTANDING! Not just from one waiter but everyone on the staff we interacted with. We really enjoyed our meal and it was super busy inside even at off times! There's a parking lot in the back as well. If we were in Jersey, we would definitely be back! read more

I was in Bogota, Colombia not too long ago and had a ceviche de chicharrón that was the single best thing I've had in recent memory. Tried this place for the first time, and while that dish was not on the menu, the owner Carlos was gracious enough to ask the chef to make it special for me. The flavors took me right back to that small restaurant in Colombia. Highly recommend Sabor de mi tierra. Thanks again Carlos! read more

I was very disappointed with my recent dining experience. The food was cold and overly salty. Our meat was tough, and the chicken soup my dad ordered had no chicken, just one carrot and half a potato. On top of that, our waitress didn't check on us even once during the meal. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience, and I wouldn't recommend it. I order my meat with potatoes I ate only the potatoes read more

I came here with my husband . Ysaura attended us. She was so nice from beginning to end and checked on us to make sure we were ok. What a sweet lady. Very polite. The place itself is definitely worth coming to. The food is not the best Colombian I've had but the service is so nice you want to always come back. They have chill salsa music in the background, its super clean and very inviting. I highly recommend you go here. The prices are very reasonable too. I bought a Buñuelo to take home and that was the best one I've ever had. Maybe i'll try their pan de bono one day with a refresco postobon. Viva Colombia!!!! read more

Its with great pleasure and satisfaction that Sabor De Mi Tierra restaurant earns my five stars!! From the moment you walk in the door you are greeted by a very hospitable and attentive staff of Servers. The overall ambience in the room adds to the overall inviting feel of the diningroom. Decorations are bright and colorful while reminiscent of the vibrant colors of Colombian culture and folklore. Most notably though, the food was delicious! Every dish served with thoughtful presentation, generous serving sizes and served expeditiously. Everyone in our party was thoroughly satisfied and satiated in full. All in all, Sabor restaurant is a dining spot that will remain highly recommended in my future referrals. read more

Rainy cool Columbus Day Monday calls for a Lovely Columbian lunch by 3 Asians. Yes. that's right...it's all good with a kind and professional staff! Waitress impressed with my needing my Yuca Fritas, a necessary side for me. Not my first rodeo! My sister in law had the Red Snapper, my brother had the grilled Chicken Breast, and I had the Grilled pork with sauce. We left no protein on the plate (we all loved our dishes!) and not much else! Should we be ashamed?! No! Just thankful for this bounty! read more

Overpriced reheated food. Our plates were ready in no time and my wife complained the food in her $38 plate was dry. The quesadillas were made with American cheese. What's wrong with that picture? We enjoyed the drinks but that's about it. So, we left without trying the desserts. read more

This hiden gem in Union NJ. Service was good. The place was pretty full. I had no reservation and didn't wait anything. I think that the table was waiting for me, lol. The food was good. I had cow tongue in creole sauce. Came with white rice and yellow plantain. Sorry but no alcoholic beverages. Coffee was excellent.

I order the rice with shrimp it came with plenty of shrimps but nothing special. Wife ordered grilled chicken which was good. For appetizer we ordered empanadas which were good but came from the display warmer I would've preferred freshly fried. Our waiter was good but could've been more attentive. Overall the food is good. If you haven't been here I would give it a go. Didn't like the $1.35 transaction fee.. why?? read more

I want to start off by saying they are a clean and properly spaced out establishment. That made me super comfortable. Now on to the good stuff- The food was amazing!! Even better was the service! Our waitress, Liliana, was super attentive and made it a great experience. I had the churrasco and shrimp salad & mister had the pollo marinero. The shrimp was a good size and the sauces were FANTASTIC! I ordered two arepas de choclo con queso for breakfast, because DUH! Hoping they're as good as everything else. A lot of times I forget that Colombian food exists outside of Noches de Colombia. So excited to have tried this place out. Oh and the prices are super reasonable!! All in all a MARVELOUS experience and will be back! read more

Great local spot for amazing Colombian food! Customer service is great, food is always delicious every single time I come here and its affordable as well! Be sure to also give their milk smoothies a try-- I love the mango smoothie with milk! Their empanadas are also so delicious and I always get the chicken and shrimp combo with rice and tostones. read more

A really wonderful place. We made a meal of several appetizers: The guacamole with tostones was delicious, the calamari nicely fried, and the picada was cooked perfectly, all the meats tender, juicy and nicely spiced. The restaurant is decorated well and not too noisy. Service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommended. read more

After a year of its grand opening I finally I got to have dinner at "Sabor de mi Tierra". I have to say this place surprised me with its cleanliness, service and delicious food during these pandemic times. Came here with my girlfriend and my in-laws and had a great time. Clean disinfected tables, everyone following safety protocols due to Covid-19 and clean bathrooms. The menu had a nice variety of delicious options with pictures so you know what your getting. I got the bandeja paisa and it was so good! All the flavors were spot on and nothing bland or salty. Also with what my girlfriend got and my in laws also was very good! The service was excellent with the waiters and the I believe the owner asking if everything was ok. In conclusion I would definitely would like to come back to try more dishes!!! read more

This place just opened up, so I will give it some leniency. We were seated immediately. Everyone in my family ordered a fruit smoothie, and they arrived immediately. Soon afterwards we ordered our main meals. It took over an hour from the moment we were seated to receive our food, which was extremely frustrating. We weren't the only table that hadn't received our food in a timely manner. Some people actually left cause they were so upset. Once we finally received our food, everything went much smoother. The palomilla was good, we weren't a big fan of the ceviche, and the chicharron was also good, I wish that had a main course meal that was chicharron with rice and beans! If they get better at bringing out the orders in a timely fashion, they will do well. I wish them the best of luck! read more

Sat outside on a lazy Saturday afternoon. Saw menus being wiped down with cleaner by the host. And a bottle of hand sanitizer was placed on the table. Food was really tasty - the blended mangoes/ milk was just the way to kick off the appetizer (four filled plantain "cups") and the bandeja paisa (enough for two!). Food was really tasty and our server was terrific. A free parking lot is right behind the restaurant if no street parking is available. read more
