Dobe & Andy is widely recognized as a go-to destination in Montreal for authentic Hong Kong-style barbecue, with many patrons praising the flavorful char siu, crispy roast pork, and signature duck dishes. While most diners appreciate the generous portions, affordable pricing, and nostalgic, retro atmosphere, experiences with service and consistency can vary significantly. Frequent visitors often highlight the scallion oil and house-made sauces as standout elements, though some note occasional issues with food temperature, portion sizes, or communication. Despite mixed feedback regarding recent changes to the menu and service efficiency, the restaurant remains a beloved staple for those seeking comforting, traditional Cantonese cuisine.
Nice hole in the wall place. Relaxed atmosphere, kinda kitschy with posters & pictures of Bruce Lee on the wall. FANTASTIC char siu. Best I've ever had.
As a traveler from Hong Kong, I can tell that the atmosphere feels like the old times in Hong Kong. However, the food I have ordered was not that great. Firstly, BBQ Pork & Roasted Pork are supposed to have different tastes, but the restaurant seems to have similar marination. Secondly, BBQ Pork & Roasted Pork are supposed to have certain percentage of grease to have better "grilled" tastes, but the meat here were too thin & so not tendered. Thirdly, BBQ Pork & Roasted Pork in Hong Kong are affordable food for the general public, which is manifested in the great portion & great price. The food here are not that expensive, but the portion of meat seems to be too not generous. Fourthly, BBQ Pork & Roasted Pork are supposed to have some kind of black & crispy texture at the edge (膿邊 in Chinese), but the meat here certainly ignore that important part. The iced milk tea is good that the tea base is Hongkongese. The use of milk makes it more compatible with the Hong Kong style. The size of the milk tea is big, which is quite similar to Hong Kong. Overall, I would say that in Canada, especially in Montreal, you cannot expect too much in Chinese food. But it's generally ok compared with other Chinese food in Northern America.

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.
