You can do the reflection check and then manually create an expression tree that EF can understand.

For example:

int tenantId = 5;

var tenantIdInfo = typeof(TEntity).GetProperty("TenantId");

if (tenantIdInfo != null)
{
    var entity = Expression.Parameter(typeof(TEntity), "it");

    var predicate = (Expression>)Expression.Lambda(
        Expression.Equal(
            Expression.MakeMemberAccess(entity, tenantIdInfo),
            Expression.Constant(tenantId, typeof(int))),
        entity);

    query = query.Where(predicate);
}
