Review Summary

DaWa Chicken is widely praised for crispy, juicy fried chicken and sauces that stand out, with many calling it the best Korean fried chicken in Montreal. Reviewers note that the chicken stays flavorful and tender, especially when served with signature sauces and complementary items like pickled radish, onions, or tteokbokki, and they appreciate generous portions and customization for bone-in or boneless orders. The service is repeatedly described as fast, friendly, and accommodating, and the atmosphere as warm, casual, and clean. While the quality is consistently high, a few reviews mention occasional dryness or variability in texture, and some say pricing is on the higher side though regarded as worth it for the portion size and flavor. Overall, DaWa Chicken comes across as a reliable go-to for flavorful, well-executed Korean fried chicken with strong takeout and dine-in experiences, with customers returning for repeat orders and recommending it for both first-timers and regulars.

Dawa est une vraie petite découverte pour les amateurs de poulet coréen. Le poulet est toujours croustillant, juteux & parfaitement assaisonné, avec des sauces qui font toute la différence. Le service est rapide, sympathique, & l'ambiance décontractée donne envie d'y revenir.
Dawa is a real gem for Korean fried chicken lovers. The chicken is always crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, & the sauces truly stand out. Service is quick & friendly, & the relaxed atmosphere makes it a place you'll want to come back to.

Really good portion. We ate 2 onigiri before going to Dawa. We took the creamy onion sunsal medium size & it was a lot for 2 people. At the end, we had to split the last piece in half to finish everything. The taste was also good, you can really taste the yogurt, the creaminess & the acidity. The onions help a lot to eat the fry chicken since it adds more freshness to it. The chicken was juicy & tender & not dry. The workers are nice. We paid around 22$.

Nice little cozy place to enjoy fried chicken. It was delicious, crispy & tender juicy inside. Really recommend! Fries were extra crunchy & dumplings were good. I need to try the creamy udon noodles with tempura shrimp next time.

I can say here can beats any Korean chicken restaurant - juicy, crispy, & the Tao sauce was perfect🤌 Went with my big family, they set up a great space for us & even offered us to snow French fries. Appreciate the delicious food & excellent service.

Crispy, juicy Korean fried chicken freshly cooked that's given with picked radish & a honey mustard dip. The food was simple & yet so we'll executed. You could see the care & attention to quality in each dish they served be in the in restaurant or for delivery. I had the original bone-in original fried chicken along with the Korean style & the creamy onion boneless fried chicken. They were all so delicious but my favorite has to be the creamy onion one. There's an amazing quality price ratio. It is worth the detour & try very good korean fried chicken! We will be back!

Dawa is my favourite fried chicken spot in NDG. They also have really nice staff & service. Their chicken is freshly made to order & uses fresh oil. The pieces are tender & juicy. My favourite items are the wings, you can't go wrong with them. The spicy pork & udon are also nice.
