"Chinatown’s leading Hong Kong-style diner and barbecue joint is run by the Ku brothers, second-generation owners, in Saint-Urbain’s Place du Quartier. Since taking over from their father, they’ve made some tasty additions, like fried chicken, chile-garlic wontons, and daily specials like cumin lamb skewers with cajun yogurt sauce (along with some sweet merch). But the time-honored char siu pork, crispy roast pork, and roast duck served with an unforgettable ginger-scallion sauce remain the headliners." - Valerie Silva

"Dobe and Andy’s barbecue follows in the Hong Kong-style cha can ting café tradition, with a range of barbecued and roasted meats and simple meals adorned with rice and steamed bok choy. These guys learned from their roast master dads, and the results show; don’t forget to ask for extra ginger scallion sauce." - Ivy Lerner-Frank

Recommend any of the signature dishes here. We tried the BBQ Pork, Duck, and chicken. Everything together was well balanced, all was very tasty. The staff was attentive and kind. The Bruce Lee decor was cool to see.

Disclaimer: I went to this restaurant at the end of the day, about an hour and a half before closing on a Monday. So I'm not going to judge too harshly. I really enjoyed the vibe. I kept thinking I was in a movie in the 80s. Which is great. The service was great. I'd like to try another dish before I make a final judgment. Because the chicken fried rice and dumplings were super good. My BBQ beef was a little "bony." What can I say? I'd still recommend it, though. Also, it wasn't super expensive for what you got!

Food was a 3/5 for us, the meats (bbq pork and 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 and staff tho. Would return for a nice cold ice tea out of the hot sun.

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 and 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 and there is often a line. The line can be long, but it moves fast. Once seated, the service is very rushed and uneven. They usually only have two servers for the whole restaurant who also clean and prepare some parts of orders. I ordered the roast pork one time but the server messed up the order and 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 and what they have when you sit down might not be what they have when you order. Because of the short staff, the tables and chairs are not always cleaned properly.

definitely do not recommend this place. the food didn't have a taste except for the spring rolls. i had to wait 15 minutes to get the key for the bathroom and the waiters forgot our drinks even though we reminded them twice.

GREAT Chinese restaurant to go to for an afternoon lunch. I had duck chow mein, bok choy and a 3 meat plattet of bbq pork, roasted pork and duck. We also got this amazing hot sauce that I wish I had at home.

Great value here, especially if you get their 2 or 3 meat combo. Pork dishes are on the fattier side but they are indisputably tasty. Their roast duck can’t be boneless but the staff was nice enough to make sure I had a “meatier” portion. They had chili oil if you want a bit of spice too. Overall great spot in Chinatown!

My meal was extremely disappointing—I could barely eat it. To make matters worse, there was a hole in the floor, and one of my chair's legs went through it, causing me to spill a glass of water all over myself. The owners didn't do anything to address the situation, though I have to say the waitress was kind and tried her best.
