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.
I ordered the fried chicken & fries, & they were so delicious with really generous portions. Everything was super crispy & perfectly crunchy. The restaurant was extremely clean, the staff were incredibly friendly, & the food came out really fast. I highly recommend this place!
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$.
You really have to go & try it yourself. I highly recommend it! The flavors are definitely mixed! This Korean dish isn't just chicken. It offers a variety of different flavors. We have a lot to choose from.
