Review Summary

DaWa Chicken earns praise for generous portions, with many taking home full lunch boxes, and for consistently crispy, juicy fried chicken with a range of tasty sauces; favorites include the honey mustard chicken, rose tteokbokki with cheese, and wings, and combo plates are described as more than enough for two while still delivering bold flavors; the service is often described as friendly, attentive, and thoughtful, and the clean, modern ambiance adds to the experience, though timing can be inconsistent and some reviews note kitchen hours or close times vary; a few dishes like seafood pancake fall short and the option for bone in chicken is missed by some, but the overall impression is that DaWa Chicken offers strong, reliable Korean fried chicken with good value, with many guests planning to return to try more flavors.

The best restaurant I've been in Montreal so far! From the service to the food everything has been top notch, their chicken, from chicken only to the meal plans were all satisfying, their fries were crispy & soft inside. The cocktail given to us was sweet to the right point, although it was a bit too light but it was perfect for our night dine-in. An absolute must-try for whoever wants some chicken & not the usual fast food experience!

The fried chicken is perfectly crispy even with the sauce, & the cheese corn is fantastic!

I recently visited DaWa Chicken in Plateau-Mont-Royal. While there were some definite highlights to the meal, the experience was a bit of a mixed bag due to service speed & one specific dish.

The Good
• Fried Chicken Combo: This was the star of the show! The chicken was perfectly crispy & flavorful. We really enjoyed the variety of sauces & the crunch.
• Korean Rice Cakes (Tteokbokki): These came with fish cakes & a generous layer of melted cheese on top. The texture was great & the flavors were spot on. Highly recommend these two!

The Bad
• Seafood Pancake: This was a major disappointment. It felt like it was rushed on high heat-the outside was overcooked/burnt while the inside remained raw & gooey. It wouldn't hold its shape & just fell apart when touched. Definitely wouldn't recommend ordering this.

The Service
• Wait Time: We waited about 40 minutes for our three courses to arrive. For a casual dinner, that felt significantly too slow, especially considering the kitchen timing issues with the pancake.

Final Verdict: Go for the chicken & the rice cakes, but maybe skip the pancakes & be prepared to wait a while for your food.

The chicken was crispy but not as warm as I expected, didn't feel freshly fried. The beer, though, was great & really hit the spot!
