SoFlo Spot Might Make Florida's Best Chicken Caesar Wrap

Boca Raton, it's time to *meat* your match. The legendary loaded chicken Caesar wrap from Vinny’s Cafe that went viral last summer on TikTok and Instagram might finally have some competition. This past weekend, Tap 42 dropped its own version of the chicken Caesar wrap, and it's already stirring up some serious conversation on social media.

On March 1, Tap 42 shocked its followers by announcing it had added a loaded, giant "Chopped Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap" to the menu — and fans freaked out. On Instagram, comments ranged from, "Had it today and it's legitimately amazing," to "Vinny is gonna be very upset." One user went so far to post, "Better than @vinnyscafeboca."

Yes, that Vinny's. So, is Tap 42's new wrap good enough to challenge the viral icon from Vinny’s? We'll let you be the judge.

Tap 42 vs. Vinny's Cafe: Who Makes the Best Chicken Caesar Wrap in Florida?

Vinny's Cafe in Boca Raton, a local favorite since 1999, shot to fame last summer thanks to its chicken Caesar salad wrap, which quickly blew up on TikTok and Instagram. The wrap features a blend of chopped grilled or crispy chicken, romaine, Parmesan, croutons, and Caesar dressing, all wrapped in either a whole wheat or spinach tortilla. Its generous portion is so hefty it could easily feed two. While TikTok helped make its wraps go viral, lines at Vinny's have been out the door for years, sometimes averaging 30 minutes during peak hours.

Similar to Vinny's, Tap 42's chopped chicken Caesar wrap looks crispy, crunchy, and loaded with juicy, seasoned chicken, fresh romaine, and a generous drizzle of creamy Caesar dressing, also wrapped up in a soft, warm tortilla. The wrap is now available at all Tap 42 locations.
Tap 42 opened its first restaurant in Fort Lauderdale in 2011 and has since become a well-known name in South Florida for its elevated take on classic gastropub fare. With nearly a dozen outposts spanning mostly in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach — including Kendall, Aventura, Midtown, Boca Raton, and Doral — it’s a go-to spot for craft beer lovers, casual brunch-goers, and anyone looking for high-end comfort food. They also have a location in Naples, with a soon-to-open spot coming to Fort Myers.

Tap 42's menu combines familiar dishes with refined twists, offering everything from gourmet burgers to creative appetizers like spicy salmon crispy rice, truffle street corn guacamole, and flame-grilled chicken wings served with sweet and spicy barbecue sauce.

Along with the chopped chicken Caesar wrap, Tap 42 recently added another fan-favorite to the menu: Philly cheesesteak egg rolls filled with tender steak and melted cheese. It's also available at all Tap 42 locations.
