Delicious food. Reasonably priced…read more Love the fact that they have a huge backyard. Stopped by yesterday after a hike. Asked for water and food. Water didn't come out until the food came. Kinda strange. I think they were understaffed - tables weren't cleared, new cutlery wasn't placed. The Cuban corditita coffee was excellent though disappointingly served in a take away cup. I prefer regular cups if I'm sitting down for coffee and food. The beans, maduros, rice and vegan platter was done to perfection and was a large amount. Will be back. Again. And again.

I had an inKind coupon I wanted to use and I saw Miti Miti was one of the restaurants. It's a…read morelittle further than we'd normally want to drive for a random restaurant but we had the day off so we figured - why not? They only have outdoor seating, and you have to go around the back for the dining area. I liked that they had games on each table (giant uno, giant Jenga) so it seems like a cool spot to meet up with some friends. There was some sort of taco special going on (2 for $8, but add $1 if it's a seafood taco). Here is what we ordered: -Pork belly taco (roasted pork belly, salsa verde, pickled red onion) - definitely my favorite. The pork was so tender and flavorful -Lobster taco - (chilled lobster, chipotle aioli, red onion, corn, avocado, blue corn hard shell) - this was kind of like a lobster salad but I really liked it. I considered ordering another one of these two but I was already full from the additional pork belly taco -Crispy fish taco (panko breaded white fish, lettuce, pico, chipotle mayo, flour tortilla) - this was a solid fish taco -Spicy jerk chicken taco (roasted chicken thigh, mango salsa, crema, pickled onion, guacamole) - this one was my least favorite. The chicken was dry, and it's pretty hard to overcook chicken thigh -Birria burrito lunch special - my husband ordered this one and it was soo dry. Since it said birria, we thought it would have come with consommé, but it didn't. I don't think that would have helped much though. Lunch specials come with your choice of yellow rice & black beans, salad, or fries. He chose fries and they tasted like when you have leftover fries from McDonalds and pop them in the toaster oven the next day (not good) -Chicharron - tough and dry As I mentioned, this spot is a little far for us so I would probably only go back if I was ever in the area for some more pork belly and lobster tacos. But I wouldn't go out of my way to do so. Tip - BYOB

Excellent food!! If you're looking for authentic Colombian food and large portions this is the…read moreplace to go. Everything is super yummy; we ordered the Churrasco and it was cooked to perfection; the Lomo Saltado was sooo yummy that I eat it first and then ate my rice and sweet plantains. The kids meal portions are sooo generous that even an adult can order it and be satisfied; my kids ordered the " Bandeja Paisa" which is rice w/red beans; steak; fried egg; sweet plantains and Fried Pork; the Steak and Fries. We also ordered the "Red Snapper" which I was a little hesitant due to I'm from the Caribbean and I have high standards when it comes to seafood; and the fish fried to perfection; fish was crunchy and well seasoned. Our server was the sweetest and most attentive server we've ever had; making sure we had everything we needed. This restaurant had really nice outdoor seating if you wish to eat outdoors. Another thing is this place is super clean!! The bathrooms are impeccable!! Definitely a great place to enjoy great Colombian food with great ambiance The only thing I regret is not taking pictures of the food; we were all hungry and the food smelled so good we didn't have time. Lol

This place's food is just a disappointment every time. They…read morecall themselves a Colombian restaurant but the flavor is not up to the standards . The empanadas taste really bad The pandebonos taste really bad The list could go on ... Service how ever ,is ok. Not bad

10/10 - Truly the best Colombian food around!…read more 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!

So I was walking back from UPS and decided to stop in and grab a bite. Once I walked in, I was hit…read morewith 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.
