Sabor de mi Tierra

Really delicious and authentic Colombian food. Its more pricey than what I am used to, but for the area it makes sense. The ambiance is very nice making it a pleasant spot to enjoy dinner. The fries were amazing, extraordinary, and perfect. The appetizers are delicious also, especially the empanadas, nice and crispy. The bakery items are fresh and tasty also. The desserts are hard to miss, they look so good that you just have to try one. The 3 leches was amazing. The juices are fresh and all natural, what more can u ask for. Definitely recommend, although u may find cheaper options in elizabeth.

As soon as you walk in you’re being greeted with a smile. What made the experience even better was having the owner come to our table and greet us and thank us after. The food was delicious! The beans are in another level of delicious. Congratulations to the owner and team!

What an extraordinary experience that I had no idea I was walking into when I took my daughter to this lovely bakery Café. The food is exquisite. The service is exceptional. Thank you Jessica and Julian. 🤌I’m so excited to be working directly across the street so I can come back every day.

I had a great experience dining at this restaurant and highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic flavors, great service, and a cozy atmosphere. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome and were attentive throughout the meal without being intrusive. The food was flavorful and clearly made with care, offering a nice variety of traditional dishes that are both satisfying and beautifully served. While I won’t mention specific plates, I do want to highlight the natural juices, especially the guanábana (soursop) and maracuyá (passion fruit). Both were absolutely delicious, refreshing, rich in flavor, and the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. They’re a must-try! As for parking, it’s good to know the restaurant does not offer parking validation. You can either park on the street and pay using the ParkMobile app, or you can use the library parking lot located behind the restaurant, which is free for up to two hours. Parking wasn’t difficult to find, and it didn’t take away from the overall experience. This place is a hidden gem. Between the atmosphere, the service, and those amazing tropical juices, I’ll definitely be coming back. A great spot for a relaxed meal with real flavor!

I'm on a road trip from Miami to Toronto, and I unexpectedly ended up having lunch at this restaurant during my stop in New Jersey. Even though the area isn’t particularly nice, the restaurant itself has a beautiful atmosphere, and the parking is easy and safe. But the highlight is definitely the food — it was amazing! The only thing I didn’t like is that the runners do all the work while the waitress takes all the tips, so I decided to give my money directly to the person who actually took care of me. 100% recommended — no brainer!

Food is absolutely delicious every time. Portion sizes are huge and really worth the price. Our server, Liliana, is friendly and shared with us great food tips!

This place is awesome. The restaurant is a very nice and quaint. Service is phenomenal. The waiters are very attentive and come back to the table to ask if everything is ok or if anything else is needed. The food is VERY delicious. Get ready--the portions are HUGE! You'll have leftovers for the next day. And the prices are very reasonable. I definitely recommend this place.

We recently stopped by after work since the place was on the way home. The location was originally suggested to us by a coworker, but I’ve always wanted to try because of the look of the exterior. The food itself was really fulfilling and we were happily surprised by the taste of the desserts we ordered! Definitely taking my friends back here.

Highly recommend!! I love this place, food is incredible, and the people are so nice !

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

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

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.

Pretty quick and easy colombian place. Hawaiian chicken was good. My bf loved the Bandeja Paisa. Overall very good and very filling meal. Could only stop for a quick bite but would try more.

Alright, I'm gonna keep this short and sweet (or savory for that matter) I have no idea what this dish is called, it was a massive chicken breast with mushroom sauce. Please someone tell me what this is called

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!

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

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!

Love this place. We had the cafecito and pandeyuca. The service was quick! Worth to try!

The food was excellent and delicious! But most of all the service was outstanding. The servers were so kind and friendly.

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.

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!!!!

¡Mi esposa y yo valoramos enormemente nuestras visitas a este encantador restaurante! Se ha convertido sin problemas en una extensión de nuestro hogar. A pesar de haber abierto solo un mes antes de la pandemia, nuestra lealtad hacia este establecimiento sigue siendo inquebrantable. El excepcional servicio del personal nos deja constantemente impresionados, y los deliciosos platillos que sirven son consistentemente exquisitos. Podría fácilmente componer una reseña extensa elogiando sus cualidades. No pierdas la oportunidad de saborear un cafecito acompañado de un delicioso pan de bono o una apetitosa arepa. Cada platillo es una sensación de sabor que te dejará maravillado. ¡Disfruta y saborea la experiencia al máximo!

Delicious Columbian dishes! Quick and pleasant service, very accommodating to guests. Light and fun ambiance. Outdoor seating with lights and music facing the bustle of Morris ave. Enjoyed the Sautéed Shrimp with fries, peppers and onions, plantains. Flan and coffee for dessert. Would definitely eat again!

The staff is nice and very understanding if you need assistance. The food is delicious and they give you very big portions for you to have another day.

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.

The food is fantastic and the servers are incredibly sweet and accommodating. The service is also really quick and the food comes out very speedily. The ambiance is delightful and the music they play is old-school salsa quiet enough to have conversations but also loud enough to enjoy :)

Had dinner there on a Sunday night. We were greeted by our server, Lillian. The food was superb and delicious as always. It never fails to impress us. They have a lot of outdoor seating and staff are on top of maintaining social distance and cleanliness. Definitely recommend this place if you crave good Columbian food.

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.

First but definitely not last time there I have a very demanding palate I have to say that it is one if not the best Colombian restaurant I have ever tried. The excellent food, the first class service and the extremely friendly family atmosphere make this place a 100% recommendable place. Con un paladar muy exigente tengo que decir que es uno sino el mejor reataurante Colombiano que he tratado. La comida excelente , el servicio de primera y el ambiente ,familiar y extremadamente amigable Hacen de este lugar un sitio 100 % recomendable .

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. Like I said service was just perfect. #colombianfoodporn #colombianfoo #sabordemitierra #lengua #lenguadevaca #cowtongue #rise #whiterise #yellowplantain #sweetplantains #lettuce #salsacriolla #creolesauce Chicharron

Best Colombian food I've had since Medellin. The food is great, large portion, decent price and great drinks. Fantastic servers and great atmosphere. A great place to have breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Delicious & authentic Colombian food. & Thankfully the waiters have proven to know the Heimlich maneuver. - Small incident involving the cops, firefighters, & EMT. Luckily everyone was okay.* Anyway, our waitress AMAZING! Portion size was just right. And the natural juices ! One of the best dining we've had in a long time. Definitely will be back !

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!

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.

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??

I have come to this restaurant multiple times but last night would have to be by far one of the best experiences I had. The food is always amazing and I had no doubt about that before coming in. However, the service was impeccable this time. They treated us with respect and it really felt as though we were in an intimate spot for friends to get together. My friends and I enjoyed everything about our time there and we all said that we will certainly be back! All of their dishes were great! Highly reccommend

First time coming here with my boyfriend. We are always looking for a good spot to eat and great service and we found it. I was so excited to have Columbian food. And they did not disappoint. The staff made us feel like family, super nice and genuine service. The food was amazing and overall great vibes. We had the emapanaditas. I had the Carne Salteada and my boyfriend had the red snapper with shrimp. Everything was cooked to perfection. I can't wait to come back.

Love this place. Service is great..Lilianna and Jimena very friendly and attentive. Food is always on point!! I love that this is right in my neighborhood. Also good spot for quick bakery pick up items (pandebonos always hit wherever I bring them)

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!

I went with my brother and had lunch. The food was very excellent. The service was delightful. The ambiance was just right. If you enjoy Colombia food I recommend this place. You won't be disappointed.

The food and atmosphere is really good! People here are really nice. Enjoy yourself for a great date night.

Delicious food and attentive staff. La mesera, Liliana, fue muy atenta. Definitivamente voy a regresar!

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!!!

La picada colombiana de este lugar es sólo picada de pollo y tajadas. le echan unos 5 pedacitos de chorizo y otros cinco de chicharrón.

It's not too hard to say "I'll be with you shortly" if you are busy. Instead, I was standing there for idek how long without acknowledgment. Customer service really sucks sometimes, and idk 3 people in the restaurant doesn't really seem like busy to me in the first place, especially when you have more than 3 people for staff.

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!

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.

How can I start... My husband and I were passing by and this specific restaurant caught our attention, we couldn't be more happy, starting with the staff that were amazing not to mention the owner Carlos who seems like a great guy and he makes sure you feel welcome and happy. About the food I can just say it's been long time since I have had an amazing and authentic Colombian meal. Definitely coming back, I super recommend it. Muy recomendado!!

The staff and the owner are sooo friendly! They make you feel so welcomed. Food is beyond amazing! And the place is so clean. Recommend for sure!

La comida es deliciosa. La atención de los mesoneros es súper cálida, especialmente Claudia, nos atendió como reinas. La sopa de pescado 100% recomendada.

Food and service is fantastic. I order here often for take out for large groups. The food is always hot on arrival, perfectly labeled, organized and all the sauces you could want. They are quick to be accommodating if I have to wait offering coffee, soda, etc. Everyone is friendly and quick on their feet. I'm always helped to my car with my order. I've never stayed to eat, but it's always clean, bright and has great music. Be sure to grab a bag of the butter cookies, perfect treat!

This is by far the BEST I've tasted in Union! Our daughter loved their rice and beans that she asked for additional sides to go! Food comes out hot - only thing, bring and pay in cash- there's an additional charge is paid with card (debit or credit).

So I call to try this place out. I figured, lots of good pictures, some good reviews and some not so good. Most of the bad reviews had to do with bad service skills. I generally could care less if the food is good, however...I call to place an order and some SKANK answers the phone who clearly doesn't know how a phone conversation works. She put me on hold and asked me to verify my phone number several times. The effort to eat here: UNSUCCESSFUL. Well, vagabunda, it should never be a chore to order food. You are done and will be out of business. Look forward to your doors closing!

So I decided to try this new place out in union. The owner was super attentive and the service was excellent. I ordered steak with rice and my boyfriend ordered a surf and turf meal. Also, the appetizer was delicious and fresh the guacamole was to die for. The owner checked up on us on the regular and also were super clean following the COVID guidelines. Excellent excellent

Not a fancy shop, but the food is fresh and delicious. The server was nice and helpful. The portion size is just right.

This place was amazing. I went in here on a whim. It's a random weekday, I have so much work to do that cooking wouldnt be feasible. I also wanted meat. Man, did I pick the right spot. I went in and sat down. The waiter took care of me. I ordered a steak with some onions. Came with two sides. I chose rice and salad. Came out in a lickety split. The steak was thin, well cooked, well seasoned. Not to salty. Had a good char. The rice was well cooked. Not powdered seasoning style, like yellow from tomatoes and filled with veggies. The salad they gave me was full of onions, corn, and other tasty bits to excite an individual more than a salad usually provides. The service was on point. To the point of maybe coming around to much. I truly enjoyed the food. They did way better than Don Pepe ever could have. I will be back. Fill this place up, cause if it goes out I'll be furious with this community for not supporting this establishment. Also, the prices were on point. There's free parking in the back.

Coming from the culinary world. I decided to take a day off from cooking and brought my family here. I knew nothing of this place but read some really great reviews. The service is outstanding. The food has so much flavor, you can follow the aroma throughout the restaurant. Check this place out. Amazing service!!!
