About

DaWa Chicken specializes in authentic Korean fried chicken, emphasizing a signature double-frying technique that ensures an exceptionally crispy, thin crust while maintaining succulent meat. The menu features a diverse selection of house-made sauces ranging from traditional sweet and spicy gochujang glazes to savory soy garlic marinades that coat every piece uniformly. Each order is prepared fresh, highlighting the contrast between the crunchy exterior and tender interior that defines this culinary style. Beyond the core poultry offerings, the selection includes complementary sides such as pickled radishes designed to balance the richness of the fried proteins. The environment focuses on functionality and efficiency, prioritizing the delivery of hot, flavor-packed dishes for casual consumption. This establishment serves as a dedicated destination for enthusiasts seeking precise Korean preparation methods and consistent flavor profiles in a streamlined, modern setting.

We order the half & half chicken, & they are willing to customize our order. The signature fried chicken is really delicious! Their snowy onion chicken is one of the best fried chicken we had. Highly recommend!

Best Korean-Style Fried Chicken Restaurant in Montreal One minor drawback is the absence of beer on the menu. It would be amazing to enjoy Chi-Mac (치맥 - Korean fried chicken paired with beer) here! That said, the lack of beer might actually help you stick to your diet & maintain a healthier lifestyle. Highly recommended for authentic Korean flavors!
