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.

Excellent restaurant! L'équipe a été vraiment attentionné. Je suis végétarienne & j'ai une allergie aux produits laitiers. C'est compliqué de manger dans un restaurant. Ils ont pris le temps de vérifier chaque ingrédient & de remplacer le pain (qui avait du lait) par un wrap (qui n'en avait pas) pour m'accomoder. Le service a été plus qu'excellent & le repas (de tous, hamburger & pizza) était délicieux. Vraiment reconnaissante de ce souper. Dommage qu'on ne soit que de passage.

The food here is absolutely fantastic-crispy, juicy, & packed with flavor. We orderered the bone-in chicken & the Teokbokki. On top of that, the staff is incredibly nice, welcoming, & attentive. Great food & excellent service are a winning combination. Highly recommend Dawa Fried Chicken!

For our first visit, we asked the staff for recommendations & they did not disappoint! The team was super friendly & happily guided us toward their signature chicken platter. We ordered the half-&-half: one side was glazed in a tangy, sweet-spicy sauce (though fair warning as Mexican, it's more flavorful than fiery), while the other side was simply fried with aromatic spices. Both halves were incredibly tender, crispy, & packed with flavor. The plain fried half also came with a tasty honey-mustard-style dipping sauce on the side.

We also ordered the lemon chili fries, which were a true explosion of flavors & absolutely delicious.

Unfortunately, the'Mom's Spicy Tteokbokki' didn't quite hit the mark for me personally. That said, if I come back, & I definitely plan to, I'll be ordering that chicken & those fries again without hesitation. They were absolutely phenomenal.

The food taste amazing 5 stars 💫
The only issue I had is I have barely only nine pieces of chicken. & the nine one is barely skin. I was expecting 10 to 13 pieces as described. Thinking if I get 10 pieces it will be big one & if I get 13 pieces they will be average, but alas!
But taste good though, it's delicious!

C'est le meilleur poulet frit que j'ai goûté à Montréal, & si c'était juste de ça, je donnerais déjà cinq étoiles. MAIS, en plus de la nourriture, les employés sont super. Ma femme avait une mauvaise journée, & les deux personnes à la caisse ont été tellement gentilles qu'elles l'ont presque fait pleurer.

Chaudement recommandé.

Poulet coréen vraiment savoureux, bien croustillant à l'extérieur & tendre à l'intérieur. La sauce est bien dosée, avec un bon équilibre entre sucré, salé & un léger piquant selon les morceaux. Portions généreuses & service rapide. Une très bonne option pour manger du poulet coréen de qualité.
