Restaurante TIERRA — Restaurant in Bogota, Capital District

The distribution of the place was very interesting, with the kitchen behind glass panels at the entrance. There was a live dj, but the volume of the music wasn't obtrusive. The only downside is that it felt a bit cramped.

Service was standard. We were greeted at the entrance, and cordially served.

The food is thought of as a fusion of Colombian and Nikkei cuisine, but I'd rather describe it as a fusion between Colombian and, either standard Japanese cuisine (like makis or onigiris), or Peruvian cuisine. We had:

Corn bread: a service from the house, it was my favorite, together with the arepa.

Grilled octopus 🐙, tender and flavorful.

Arepa de choclo 🌽, dressed with cheese and suero. I'm not really sure what was on top of the dish, but I suspect it was caramelized onions, and it was delicious.

Flank steak 🥩, in salsa criolla. The meat was tender, and it came accompanied with a potato gratin. The sauce was very on point.

Chicken breast 🐔, in salsa de ají. Over a bed of rice; the rice was a bit burnt (most likely on purpose, but I didn't like it). The sauce was good, but a bit too salty.

We also ordered two cocktails, one of blackberry with sugarcane and gin, the other one with pineapple and tequila. Beware, they do not spare alcohol for...

I only speak English and there was no one on the restaurant staff who could or would assist me with the menu. The QR code for the menu did not work to get an English menu. I was left seated at the bar from around 9 pm and ignored. I was able to ceviche after complaining the first time of many (was delicious) but no one came to let me order an entre or desert. When I finally spoke up I was told the kitchen was closed and I could not be served. After asking to speak with the manager they managed to find some chicken fettuccini (too Salty), and a desert. The manager told me,"we did help you, we got you ceviche", I said, "what about dinner?" Then he could no longer understand English. I had to argue to get served. I would have expected the restaurant to say sorry, perhaps desert is on us. No way! I was told they tried to accomodate me. Finally on the way out there was a big puddle of water on the floor, and I slipped and almost feel down. The manager saw me almost fall and again did nothing. The restaurant simply does not care to help people who cannot...

Fuimos ayer al restaurante y siendo honestos mi experiencia fue mala en relación al precio que pague. Primero llegamos íbamos en sudadera, el vale parking nos dijo que averiguaria si tenían disponibilidad para 2 y cuando salio nos dijo si hay una mesa. Cuando fuimos a entrar host nos miró de arriba a abajo y nos dijo no tengo mesa, por lo cual me voltie y salí. Luego el vale parking dijo no esperen entro y bajo el manager el cual si nos asigno una mesa.

Primer error, si el restaurante tiene política de vestimenta debe anunciarlo en redes sociales página web y antes de entrar. Segundo si se trata de ser arribista y clasistas se debe capacitar al personal para que sepan de marcas ya que si ella analizará la marca del carro, marca de reloj. Bolsos tipo de joyas y marca de carro tal vez la historia sería diferente.

Segundo no asignan meseros por tanto ustedes debe hacer maromas y casi que perseguir a los meseros para que lo atiendan.

De ahí sale el tercer error cualquiera viene y te trae el plato por tanto en una ocasión la host nos trajo uno de los platos el cual tiro sobre la mesa de manera grosera y ordinaria. (Si la misma host clasita y arribista pero que aparentemente tampoco sabe de trato al cliente ni de modales ni de educación.

Referente a la comida la presentación estuvo buena, el sabor estuco rico, las mezclas estuvieron espectaculares.

Pero para una carta tan costosa con un servicio tan pésimo como este es mejor no ir.

Espero les ayude mi comentario para tomar...
