Tierra Colombiana Restaurant

I had a delicious American Breakfast yes I know I should have tried the Colombian breakfast (next time, I promise) well service was good, my eggs were perfect and my coffee on point. So totally recommend.

Atmosphere: Tierra Colombiana is truly a hidden gem in North Philadelphia. The moment you walk in, you’re transported to Colombia. This was thanks to the lively Latin music, vibrant décor, and inviting ambiance. The interior strikes a beautiful balance between rich mahogany wood and bright, festive colors. It’s the kind of space that feels both cozy and celebratory, perfect for a birthday dinner, graduation party, or just a fun night out. Food: I ordered the salmon, which came with creamy mashed potatoes, a rich caper sauce, and a side of avocado and sweet plantains. The presentation was impressive, and every bite was full of flavor. The portion was generous enough that I had leftovers to enjoy the next day. Service: The service was prompt, friendly, and attentive without being overbearing. One standout feature was their digital iPad menu, which included photos and even videos of each dish. It’s a thoughtful touch that makes choosing your meal so much easier, especially for visual eaters like me. Note: Please note that there is an automatic gratuity added to all dine-in meals. It seems like this is regardless of the party size.

I've been here several times. I have had several different dishes. The appetizers are good, soup is good and desserts are good. This time around we had the seafood paella and it fell short for the price. It was $75 and the rice was mushy, the seafood over cooked and it lacked flavor. We also ordered mofongo with criollo sauce. The sauce was gelatinous versus a good tomato based sauce. But hey, maybe this is how its made in Colombia. The dining room was cold so it made it uncomfortable to sit for an entire meal. The server was excellent as the coffee and dessert. I do like this place but that paella was not my favorite. I gave the food 3 stars because you can't really mess up tostones, chicharrón and the soup was good. Not sure that I would travel from out of state again to eat here.

It’s a cozy, authentic Colombian spot with bold, comforting flavors — the kind of place that feels like a home-cooked meal. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for a casual lunch or dinner with friends or family. The menu features classic Colombian dishes like arepas, empanadas, bandeja paisa, and rich stews that are full of flavor and satisfying. Everything I tried felt fresh and well-seasoned, with great portions that leave you full and happy. Service was friendly and attentive, and I loved how each dish gave me a true taste of Colombian cuisine. If you’re in Philly and craving hearty, authentic Latin American food, Tierra Colombiana Restaurant is definitely worth checking out!

Octopus salad had so much oil we had to take out the oil to be able to eat it. Otherwise oil is running down your chin. To much.

Everything we ordered was served promptly, tasted great, and the presentations were superb. Esperanza our hostess along with the servers were very kind and helpful, while still attending to a full dinning room. If there were more stars to give, they deserve them.

This was my 2nd time. I was here years ago but this last time. Exceptional! The food was fresh and the options were limitless. I loves the tablets with the vibrant pictures. There were juices, shakes and the drink menu...OMG! I had the passionfruit margarita. The passionfruit was freshly made but just with juice. The chicaron was crunchy and the side sauce was to die for. The chicken Everything came out amazing. I was upset we didnt get to order dessert. From what I hear its a club after hours. I definitely need to go back for that.

Food was very good at this place but our server was terrible, wasn't paying too much attention to our orders, used to get lost for long time, didn't gave us what we want not good at all by the way it was a female server, other than that place is ok, just have to work a little better on their service.
