    Best Burger in Town!
    Hats off to the Chef at Duffy's Tavern & Family Restaurant. Their half pound angus Famous Presidio Burger is by far the best on the Monterey Peninsula.
    A great place to have a meal.
    Salute!

    WOW! Out if the blue surprise in Monterey.  Stopped in in a friend's recommendation and I was not disappointed.  This locals, cash only place is great. I had the JJ Burger - Bison (medium rare) cheddar, crispy, thick cut bacon and a fried egg). That's it, no fanfare. I added ketchup and mayo.

    The Bison was cooked to prefection. I'm nearly speechless. It.. was... delicious.  I will definetly come back to try more menu items.

    Catch me here on a Thursday night. Hole in the wall spot but what can I say.. don't judge a book by it's cover. This place is very homey. They are really well known for their wings and burgers. Bunch of locals and the DLI students come here. Love being able to come by myself to have dinner at the bar and not be bothered. Plus side of knowing the Bartender, you're not actually "alone".

    If you love chicken piccata as much as I do, they got this too!

    Such a great little place. We brought the kids on a Wednesday night and the staff were very nice and the food was so awesome. Can't wait to go back again.

    Burger was good but it was way overpriced for both the food and drinks and the service sucked. We also ordered the garlic bread appetizer that was terrible and not worth the money at all. This may be considered a "local" favorite but I wouldn't recommend this place at all.
