Tierra Chapinero

November 11, 2025

Tierra Chapinero is the gourmet way of saying, “I’m going for a traditional Colombian breakfast—just upgraded to first class.” The place has so many tables and a huge central rock that it feels like a countryside estate… with WiFi. You actually walk through the kitchen before meeting the host, which feels almost poetic: first the chaos, then the calm. I went on a Sunday without a reservation, and it was so quiet I thought I’d shown up on the wrong day. The mini arepas with chorizo and sugarcane syrup are pure bliss, while the beef rib broth could either wake you up or knock you out, depending on your mood. Service could move faster, but at least there’s WiFi—so you can scroll away your impatience while soaking in the coffee aroma.

This restaurant is my new obsession! The food was excellent! I loved waking through the open kitchen and seeing everything when walking in. The chefs all greeted me as I walked by and their attention to details, with the food, was noticable. The menu selection is very large and it was actually very difficult to choose! It all sounded soo good. I asked the waitress and she helped with suggestions. I started with the Mango and Passion Fruit with Ice Cream Ceviche. I have admit I was skeptical judging from the name but this was superb. It's a must try! The flavors were balanced with a great tropical vibe and the cold, creamy ice cream was an amazing complement to the sweet and traditionally acidic ceviche. WOW 😋 My second course was the Charcoal Octopus. The legs were well cooked and the flavor was good. I tend to prefer savory over sweet, so I enjoyed the cheese that cut through the sweetness of the plantain mash. A bit more of the greens or maybe the chili, to cut the sweetness, might be a nice touch. I also would have liked a little more of the crispy bits but I'm being a bit picky now. Overall the dish was good, but I will try the Roasted Octopus next time. For my main I chose the Coconut Fish with Prawns. This was super yummy. The fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce it was served over paired well. It came with a separate bowl of veggies that was a nice addition. There was a great mix of vegetables and they were all delicious. I think they accidentally oversalted them but it was not objectionable. It kinda helped with the very rich fish dish. I didn't notice the "coconut" in the dish but I also didn't mind because it tasted great. Another top notch choice. The food service was pretty good. I was at the table next to the kitchen so I got to watch things being prepared. The food was always delivered quickly and placed with the presentation side will displayed. However, it took quite a while to order, get the bill and pay. The waitress seemed very busy with other tables and I didn’t see her much. I had to take a napkin from the table next to me because there was no one I could ask. I will DEFINITELY be eating here again and I strongly suggest you do as well. Welcome to your new favorite restaurant in Bogota...

We had a long layover before our flight to Toronto and decided to come back to Chapinero for our last meal. Tierra did not disappoint! It was one of the best meals of the whole trip 😍 Rosa recommended some of the best dishes and they exceeded our expectations! Highly recommend!

Incredible food and top-tier service! Tierra has a warm, inviting atmosphere and stays open late on Sundays—huge plus. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The lomo saltado was especially amazing. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in Bogotá!
