Mario's Italian Deli & Market

The Best Chicken Parmesan In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"There are two different chicken parms at Mario’s Italian Deli & Market, as well as wonderful prosciutto sandwiches, pickled artichokes sold by the jar, and deep-fried cannoli. You can either order them as an entrée, which arrives in a pool of red sauce, or as a sandwich. We prefer the sandwich, just because there is so much sauce, and the bread it’s served with is sturdy and fluffy, the way we wish our mattress was. Everything works together in perfect harmony: the bread sops up the sauce, the crispy chicken plays off its softness, and mozzarella cheese holds it all together. Order this, plus a few deli sides if you’re heading to the park (or the movies or a friend’s house or just back to bed)." - kat hong, brett keating
