Restaurante Sheriff Rustic — Restaurant in Sámara

The food was good, but the waitress screwed up the experience. We had breakfast there and ordered typical plates (gallo pinto, eggs, meat). My son and wife both ordered scrambled eggs, I was the only one who ordered sunny side up. I like yolk to be liquid, my wife hates it, likes eggs fully cooked. When the plates came, only one had scrambled eggs, two had sunny side up, quite good (liquid), just as I like. We told waitress that she made a mistake. Believe it or not she started arguing with us. Stubbornly, she kept insisting that my wife ordered sunny side up. She rejected to replace her plate with the correct order... I ended up eating 4 eggs instead of 2 and me and my son shared the rest of our food with my wife to compensate for missing scrambled eggs. If this is the experience you expect, go ahead, give them a try. I will definitely...

Rustic Sheriff isn't your typical Tico soda because it is fronting what is the best beach is Costa Rica for families. Located directly in the sand off the main street in Samara, next door to the actual sheriffs office.

Entirely open air, the majority of the tables are covered by shade and some roof but not any walls. The staff is very kind to tourists who don't speak Spanish well and the menu is in English and Spanish.

The food is typical Tico with added options like pasta and hamburgers. Prices match the quality wich are both pretty good but you probably won't notice either of those after a few drinks and being mesmerized by the fantastic views of Samara bay that the Rustic...

Good service, bad surfing.

Nice views of the Pacific and the food is incredible. Had an omelette, a custom made affagoto, and a cappuccino.

The menu seemed creative as long as every meal ALSO contained rice and beans.

All the food and drinks tasted fresh, and there are little pop up shops all over for you to buy trinkets if you'd like.

The mention of surfing is because apparently there was an earthquake that raised the height of the reef which causes waves to break much further from shore, thereby making the 🌊 fine for beginners but nothing like we saw in either Mal Pais or Nosara. Doesn't affect the delicious food...
