Dak Hing Barbecue

Open until 7 pm

(97)

Notre-Dame-de-Grâce (NDG)Côte-Saint-Luc

BBQ Chinese Asian

Review Summary

Dak Hing Barbecue comes across in reviews as a humble, cash only, takeout focused spot near Plamondon Metro that delivers strong Cantonese barbecue at very good value, with crispy skin on roast pork, juicy meat, and a robust char siu that is caramelized without being overly sweet, plus a variety of items like duck, pork ribs, wings, and pork sausage, all available by the pound or in lunch combos. Several reviewers rank it among the best Chinese BBQ in Montreal, praising authentic flavors and careful preparation, while a few say it is not the very best but still solid for the city. The duck is noted as fatty and juicy though sometimes with many bones, and the pork skin on the roast pork is praised, with occasional mentions of chewy skin in another dish. Service is friendly and fast, but the space is small with no seating and no washrooms; the restaurant operates takeout only, though e transfer may be accepted by some. Highlights include Lunar New Year taro cake and Dragon Boat festival zongzi, and the option to buy by the pound or in lunch combos, with lines forming at peak times and broad appeal across years. Overall, the reviews present a reliable, affordable option for authentic Chinese BBQ in Montreal, with strong pork and char siu defining the standout offerings and casual, no frills service.View restaurant profile
