Korean Fried Chicken, Beer, Soju & Makgeoli** A great atmosphere with a modern Korean bar vibe. Enjoy crispy Korean fried chicken paired with refreshing beer, traditional soju, and makgeoli for the perfect experience.
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.
J'aurais laissé 0 étoile mais le poulet reste absolument délicieux & votre employéen à la caisse a été très gentille & courtoise ainsi qu'elle à fait l'effort de parler en français. Mais nous étions extrêmement insulté hier lorsque nous sommes arrivés ma femme & moi chez mes parents avec le poulet. Comment pouvez-vous charger le même prix pour si peu de poulet ??? L'autre restaurant Dawa Chicken qui malheureusement était fermé hier nous donnes l'ittéralement un poulet entier pour le même prix que votre portion !!! Vous chargez le même prix pour 50% moins de poulet !!!! Non mais ça va pas la tête ?? Les gens qui vont manger chez vous ne le savent sûrement pas pour vous donner des 5 étoiles. Non mais qu'est-ce qui ne va pas chez vous ? Vous pouvez être certain que nous ne reviendrons jamais dans votre restaurant.
I've known about Dawa since 2022. Absolutely amazing korean fried chicken! You won't find this quality anywhere else. I moved to Ontario & I would still think about travelling back just to eat there. :)
I recommend their half/half & their fries are so so good. PLEASE NEVER CLOSE
First Timer.
Went there after a quick search on Google Maps.
No Dedicated Parking.
Place is nice, clean & cosy.
Staffs were welcoming & friendly.
As for food, we ordered a combo platter for 2-3 person & really wanted to taste the truffle flavoured one.
We were two & it was so much & couldn't even eat half of what we ordered & had to take out.
They were all really good but I expected them to be better though. The chicken seems same it's just the sauces that are different & can be too much I personally think.
But I was really disappointed with the truffle one unfortunately. I didn't get a hint of truffle & it cost more than the others I think.
Overall I would recommend 💯 It's a matter of personal preferences. Not the truffle though 👎

I am definitely coming back to try other things. I tried the shrimp tempura, seafood pancake & fried chicken with rice & salad which came with a honey mustard sauce that was really good 👍
I only popped in here to kill time before a dinner reservation nearby. Meaning, I wasn't planning to eat, just drink a little, but we got a golden fried chicken combo to split & ate ALL OF IT. This is a very legit Korean fried chicken!
It reminded me of local hole-in-the-wall'chimek' spots in Korea -'chimek' stands for chicken & beer ('mekju'). Plenty of soju & magkeolli options (get the peach if unfamiliar). Very good & very nostalgic.
Would recommend coming here & getting comfortably wasted with friends! Or, just come get their amazing Korean fried chicken
We bought the mixed 4 types of fried chicken & personal favourite is the seaweed one. We ordered to take out & it took around 20 mins, it comes with 2 dipping sauces as well. There are so many dire ma on the menu that look good to try!
Went there a second time, this place just has nice everything really. Also Kpop spam if you are into this, so always a good atmosphere for me & my partner.
