The generous portions, flavorful scallion ginger oil, and comforting wonton noodle soup frequently stand out as highlights, making it a go-to spot for both quick lunches and large group feasts. While experiences vary regarding service speed and dining atmosphere, many patrons appreciate the warm, welcoming, and helpful nature of the staff, noting that the restaurant offers great value and a nostalgic, no-frills Hong Kong vibe that keeps them coming back.
The food is not what it used to be. The other day i went to Dobe & andy with my family & we all ordered the classic dish that we've been ordering for the last 10 years : egg noodle soup with char siu. It used to be such a comforting & flavourful dish. Now, it's tasteless. The portion has diminished but i understand with inflation. However the broth tasted like water there were no ginger notes, no garlicky taste, truly disappointing. I really hope it goes back to what it was because there aren't any other broths better than the ones i've tasted at dobe & andy
The food was the low point. The duck noodles & Chinese greens were excellent. The bbq meat plate arrived with everything cold. We literally could not eat it. There is something disconcerting about being served cold sliced duck & chicken. It looked delicious. The Tea arrived Luke warm. Service was no better than average. Hard pass on this place.
Very overcrowded & the food was incredibly bland, the'broth' seemed like a mix of water & a bit of salt, overall terrible. The duck didn't taste bad but it had massive bones so the meat wasn't even worth it. It's insane it was even crowded in the first place. The drinks never arrived.
The food was so awfully bland I decided to take it home & season it myself since 16 dollars was already a punch on the face. Literally just flavorless noodles in water & oil with a few stalks of long broccoli. The'signature' dish part is still a mystery to me of how it would even become a signature. I took it to go & then they gave me an inappropriate container which leaked the entire way home. Absolute disaster & I don't recommend people to come here.
The tables are so close to each other that you'll be lucky not to get a headache while listening to the sound of multiple people around you.
A long-established spot in Chinatown that many locals know well. Famous for roast pork & roast duck, especially the roast duck noodles. Authentic Chinese flavors. Upstairs seating offers a great view of the street enjoy hot noodles with Hong Kong style milk tea while watching snowfall in winter or golden leaves in autumn. A true Hong Kong experience in the heart of Montreal.
We had the Guilin noodles, plate of 3 meats - Char sui, duck, pork belly, & bok choy. Our favourite was the char sui & the bok choy!! We found the pork belly just to be meh though.
Absolutely delicious! We had a great meal. It was our first time so we asked for recommendations & how to eat when the meal arrived. The wait staff was nice & attentionate & offered us great recommendations. 100% delicious & the price was very good. We tried the signature dish, the wonton soup, the spring rolls, hot honey tea & a daily special I don't remember the name of, it was a pho-type broth with braised pork, wontons, onions, noodles & coriander. It was amazing 😊
Very flavorful meat but noodles & rice were a little underwhelming.
As my third time coming to Dobe & Andy, I can say they are obviously well known for their chinese/Cantonese style of BBQ meat that is very flavorful but the rest of the dish falls a bit behind.
Ordered the beef noodle soup with wontons, the garnish was almost like a pho-styke with raw onion & bean sprouts but did complement the soup. The soup is not too salty or fatty, it's decent for a cold day. The noodles & wontons however were lacking in flavor, they use very thin noodles. The wontons had an overwhelming taste of ginger & only 4 or so in my soup. There were 5 moderate slices of braised beef which were good, about 20-30% ratio of fat to lean meat.
I was also asked if I wanted chili oil on the side, & I said yes but did not know it was $1. The chili oil was similar to Lao gan me, quite flavorless & didn't add much to the dish. After tax, I paid 24, which is definitely above average for braised beef wonton noodle soup, so I probably wouldn't get that again.
Overall, decent place for chinese/Cantonese style BBQ meat but don't focus on the rice/noodles as the star.
On s'est arrêté là par hasard! On voulait aller au dim sum au dessus & on a décidé d'essayer ce petit restau au Rez de chaussée qui avait l'air kitch-cool! & waou quelle surprise incroyable: Angela nous a serrer elle était top!
On a pris une grande soupe, du riz chicken soya, des Guilin noodles & un plat signature au canard laqué.. TOUT était tres bon.
First timers in Montreal & amazed at the variety & quality of restaurants. I'm from Richmond, BC, where we have the best Chinese food but this restaurant exceeds most of the wonton places I've been to.
The roast pork is crispy & comes with ginger & onion sauce which makes eating pork belly less indulgent! The Cantonese chow mein is tasty & comes with plenty of ingredients. I asked for xtra crispy noodles & it came perfectly. The cup of steamed rice seemed like a bowl. It was overflowing!
The 2 ladies serving were hustling & bustling. They were attentive, efficient & friendly!
The prices were also very fair. This restaurant is a must try when in Chinatown!!!
great bang for buck & best char siu I've had in montreal! I recommend ordering a two meat + rice combo with a noodles to split between three people, you'll be very full after.
