We came for dinner one evening and found, in spite of posted hours, they were closed an hour early. So we tried again the next night, 90 minutes before closing time.The place was empty, and two women on duty. We entered, but neither moved ftom behind the counter. We picked a table we wanted, away from the blaring music in the empty courtyard, then turned to ask if this was okay. One of them asked -- in a way that suggested she was confirming we really wanted to eat there -- if we wanted dinner? We affirmed, "Yes" and she answered, "I thought you were just looking." Could be. But order-taking was similarly challenged, and then mid-way through the meal -- at that point 30 minutes before the posted closing time -- she turned off the music. I remakes it was like a bar where they turn off the music and turn up the lights to tell you it's closing time. She didn't care.What happened, clearly, is that the owners hired a pair of *brujas* to work the night shift and these two wanted to go home early, as they had evidently done the night before. The food was okay; not astounding, but the rude service spoiled the experience. And then we found there is another waffleria in the neighborhood, just east of the main plaza. We'll try that next.

Stopped in here for a snack and a beer, I had empanadas that were really pretty small and not as good as others I have had. The beer was cold and the courtyard was very nice, there are a series of craft shops around the courtyard. Overall a pretty nice place, I wish I had been hungrier and had a full meal there.

We really enjoyed the burgers and fries we had in Sheriff. I had the spicy burger which was perfect; and my partner had the double burger (it's great as you can choose 2 different meats in the double from beef, pork or chicken). The meat was cooked perfectly, so were the fries and all was very tasty.Our waiter, Javier, was welcoming and nice. There is a great variety of burgers on the menu, including vegetarian ones.Thank you very much for the comment.Javier and our entire work group are happy to leave the Sheriff's style up. We will continue with our original recipe in wood-fired oven.

Excellent empenadas for lunch. The restaurant is in a nice courtyard, very friendly staff and English spoken. Pizas for dinner were soggy and not hot.
