"It would be near-impossible to talk about Italian-American cuisine at any length without mentioning chicken Parmesan. Even "meh" chicken Parm is still pretty good, but for the best chicken Parmesan, the formula is as follows: no soggy cutlet, not too much sauce, and just the right amount of herbs. Happily, there's one restaurant that totally nails it. In Tasting Table's ranking of the chicken Parmesan from 13 popular chain restaurants, the chicken Parmesan from Maggiano's Little Italy absolutely swept the competition."
"Maggiano's even dominated our ranking of 11 Italian chain restaurants, leaving Carrabba's, Brio, Buca di Beppo, and several others in the dust. Fittingly, the chicken Parms we taste-tested from these competitor chains were also ultimately outranked by Maggiano's. As noted in our review, "Maggiano's chicken Parmesan is spot-on, with two perfectly cooked crispy chicken cutlets topped with marinara, mozzarella, and provolone over a bed of spaghetti. The regular size is enough for two if you pair it with a salad or appetizer.""
"Maggiano's Little Italy boasts majority five-star reviews on Yelp, and multiple customer testimonials similarly praise the large portion sizes and high food quality. At a Maggiano's Little Italy location in Chicago, "The Grand" Chicken Parmesan dinner with whole-milk mozzarella, fresh basil, rigatoni, and marinara costs $28.50, or $10 more for a double-sized portion - a cost-effective promotion for taking home leftovers or a meal for the next day."
