Reviews present Dobe & Andy as a long standing Montreal Chinatown favorite for Chinese BBQ with standout roast pork and char siu and a Hong Kong vibe, offering generous portions and generally good value. The duck is praised by some for flavor but others find it dry or not as crunchy, and a few dishes arrive lukewarm or with inconsistent quality. The Guilin noodles, wonton soup, bok choy with scallion sauce, and milk tea are often highlighted, while service can be fast and friendly or slow and disorganized on busy nights with missed items. Overall the restaurant is seen as authentic and comforting with strong flavors and nostalgic atmosphere, though some reviews note changes in menu and quality that affect consistency.
Best Chinese food I ever had!!!!! The whole atmosphere of this place, the music, the decorations, their incredible service is just one beautiful thing but then is time for the food to show up ... COMPLETELY FANTASTIC Wonderful experience

The place has been around since the 80s & I get why. The pork BBQ was my favorite, over the egg fried rice. No frills, hole in the wall, full of character. I thought the duck was a lot of bones & not a lot of meat, that would be the only thing I wouldn't order next time. Quick walk from the metro, fun to take in China Town too
Sous la recommandation de Gurky, nous avons adoré les plats que nous avions choisis. Portions généreuses sans être disproportionnées. C'est arrivé chaud, bien cuit & bien assaisonné sans être trop sucré ou salé. Très bons chefs.
Great place to go in Chinatown. The food is great (although my roast duck did have a lot of bones). The wonton soup is a must have. It's large enough for 2-3 people to share & comes with 4 wontons. It has a great onion flavor. My favorite of the meats is the roast pork - which is really pork belly with crispy skin. Even in soup the skin stays crispy. The char sui is also very good. They also have a very refreshing Hong Kong Lemon Iced Tea. The restaurant itself is tucked away & there is often a line. The line can be long, but it moves fast. Once seated, the service is very rushed & uneven. They usually only have two servers for the whole restaurant who also clean & prepare some parts of orders. I ordered the roast pork one time but the server messed up the order & brought char sui - lesson learned, triple check your order with them. You also might need to flag down your server. If you get there too late they usually run out of the more popular items & what they have when you sit down might not be what they have when you order. Because of the short staff, the tables & chairs are not always cleaned properly.

Nous avons mangé sur place & la serveuse nous a recommandé le plat de 4 viandes. Nous avons aussi commandé des légumes & la salade de concombre. Tout était succulent & la serveuse était super. Nous recommandons !! :)

I love the ambiance of this restaurant, it's just so nostalgic & laid back. Also, you have great value, & the food is absolutely delicious. I love how they keep the classics on their menu but also innovate.
Food was a 3/5 for us, the meats (bbq pork & duck) were both just too salty which perhaps we are the outliers who find that many restaurants in Montreal serve extremely salty meat. Loved the laid back ambience & staff tho. Would return for a nice cold ice tea out of the hot sun.
Really delicious BBQ pork & duck. BBQ pork was fatty & juicy, the duck was very flavourful. The large vegetables was smaller than expected but still quite tasty, a good amount of garlic used. I wish we had more time to dine in for the spiked Ribena drink. Cool retro vibes in the restaurant, like I was transported to the 90s.
LUH ITERALLY the best Chinese food I've ever had in my life. I was groaning the whole time. You're a god damn idiot if you don't eat here today like right now why else would you be reading this review
