Review Summary

Buboy is widely celebrated as a cozy, hidden gem in Montreal that serves authentic and flavorful Filipino cuisine. Many patrons appreciate the delicious, comfort-food style dishes, particularly highlighting the crispy pork lechon, hearty bulalo, and savory pancit as standout menu items. The restaurant is frequently described as having a warm, homey atmosphere with friendly staff who take pride in their craft and provide welcoming service.

I absolutely love this restaurant, the food & staff. They're always super friendly & go out of their way with recs & service. My sole complaint is that they're often out of certain dishes & preferring not to eat red meat or pork, it can be a bit tricky as most dishes contain the latter. I have tried their Miki Noodle soup (fav), the OG Bulalo & shrimp Palabok. All were fantastic! (Dont worry about the picture, the rangoons come in 5 but I couldn't help myself from eating one first lol)

Buboy is my favorite Filipino restaurant here in Montréal. They offer the best-tasting dishes paired with the most amazing staff. Shoutout to Chef Eric for always thinking of ways on how to innovate Filipino flavors through his unique dishes, & for placing Filipino cuisine in the MTL food map. Pro-tip: Ask for their homemade ice cream. I don't think it's posted in the menu, but it's definitely worth the try.
