The food is amazing & the portions are so generous for the price!! We got so much food for 60$, I looked at it & immediately knew we'd have leftovers it was awesome. I think we spoke to the owner, I didn't get his name, but he was so sweet & kind. Very patient as well, he took the time to explain the menu to us & how it works & what's the best option for two people. Also if you get the ribs, do not be fooled, they're HUGE! I had the combo pork & chicken &, oh my goodness, I was so full but I couldn't stop eating!
I recommend the honey BBQ sauce & the Texas, they're amazing!

(Also the'owner' let us play his vintage pinball machine for free while we waited which was so sweet!)

I highly recommend this place, very affordable & honestly, some of the most awesome BBQ smokehouse food in that area!!

Stopped by here & for dinner & left EXTREMELY SATISFIED. We ordered the buddy combo & brisket. The brisket literally fell apart as you pick it up & just melts in your mouth. The ribs in the buddy combo were full of flavour. The pulled pork paired with the toast was absolute perfection. The chicken was tender & full of flavour even better with hot sauce. The owner was extremely kind & patient when we were confused about the menu. The interior had a vintage feel & had books & games to borrow. Overall I would definitely stop by, the food is amazing & so is the service!

I have been going to Bofinger since it opened in 2007 & I love everything on the menu. My favourite meal are the smoked pork ribs with honey barbecue sauce 😋. I have had southern barbecue in many different cities & these are by far the best I have ever had. The service is also impeccable, Amir is one of the friendliest people I have met & takes great pride in his work! 10/10

If this place ever shuts down, I will personally never eat BBQ again. They've got it right with the Cuban Sandwich with Alabama sauce , its my little treat after a long week. They only place I trust with my pulled pork craving

Lovely smoked ribs with just the right amount of sauce. Loved it. Traditional texas style & it fell off the bone. Loved the crust on the ribs so flavorful

Had the brisket, husband had the pulled pork & MIL had the chilli & Mac & Cheese & we were all too busy eating to even have a conversation. The Brisket was so darn good, I was bursting at the seams but had to finish it because it was just too good. Fresh, great seasonings, delicious sauce, melt in the mouth kind of meat. The house beer was inexpensive but good, & the service was great. I can't wait to be hungry again so I can get more food.

Southern BBQ is an uncommon find in this city. Bofinger is going head-to-head with my current favorite, Diablo in the Plateau. I went for the chicken & rib combo with a mac n cheese. Every single part of the meal was expertly prepared. The Texas BBQ sauce was smoky, a lil sweet & bold as it should be. It worked almost equally perfect on both meats, with slight edge to the ribs. The ribs were huge & so tender, impressive quality. The plate was reasonably priced considering both quality & quantity. The man at the counter provided good service as well. The interior is well decorated to suit the cuisine & provide a well-rounded experience.

A Traumatic Encounter with Culinary Excellence at Bofinger BBQ

Let me preface this by saying, if you value mediocrity, if you cherish the bland, & if your palate recoils at the mere suggestion of genuine flavor, then for the love of all that is unspectacular, DO NOT go to Bofinger BBQ in Montreal.

Consider yourselves warned.My recent visit was nothing short of an assault on my carefully cultivated apathy towards barbecue. I went in expecting the usual, the forgettable, the'it'll do.' What I received was a gastronomic intervention I didn't ask for & am now, infuriatingly, grateful for.

First, the barbecue ribs. Oh, the utter gall of these ribs! They were so ludicrously tender, so shamelessly falling off the bone, that one wonders if they've bribed the laws of physics. Each bite was a decadent, smoky whisper of perfection, drenched in a sauce that had no business being so profoundly balanced - sweet, tangy, with just enough of a kick to remind you that your taste buds are, in fact, alive & currently being exploited for pleasure. It was an insult to every dry, chewy rib I've ever reluctantly consumed.

& the French fries? Preposterous! Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, & seasoned with such devilish precision that they rendered ketchup entirely redundant. Who needs a condiment when the fry itself is a masterpiece? It's almost offensive in its simplicity & flawless execution.

Then there was the mac & cheese. This wasn't just mac & cheese; it was a creamy, cheesy, carb-laden conspiracy against willpower. Rich, comforting, & dangerously addictive, it clung to every noodle with an unapologetic intensity. It's the kind of side dish that actively tries to sabotage your main course by being equally, if not more, compelling. A true villain, disguised as comfort food.

& finally, the chicken. Juicy, flavorful, with skin that boasted an almost criminal char. It wasn't merely cooked; it was transformed. Each piece was a testament to proper seasoning & masterful grilling, forcing me to confront the harsh reality that I may never look at a rotisserie chicken the same way again.

In conclusion, Bofinger BBQ is a menace. It dares to serve food that is genuinely, unequivocally delicious, thereby raising the bar to an uncomfortably high level. If you enjoy your culinary experiences to be just'fine' or'decent,' then absolutely, unequivocally, avoid Bofinger. You've been warned: your expectations for good barbecue will be irrevocably ruined.
