Here are 5 Italian chains with the best chicken marsala.

The Chicken Marsala at Carrabba’s Italian Grill is super tasty, according to diners. It is wood-grilled and topped with mushrooms and the chain’s Lombardo Marsala wine sauce. “Chicken Marsala was very tasty, plenty of delicious mushrooms and cooked just right, but more of a brown sauce and less of the wine forward cream based take on the traditional classic,” one Facebooker said.
