"Quotation marks are apparently pretty powerful literary devices since they can trick the general public into thinking that jackfruit is actually “chicken.” But aside from the fact that the texture of the fried jackfruit is softer (think fried cod), we’re not sure Rhythm ’n Wraps needs to employ any punctuation trickery. The soft brioche bun complements the crispy fry and cilantro aioli well, so this isn’t a “good vegan sandwich” - it’s just a good sandwich. There’s also both a buffalo and teriyaki version if you don’t particularly like cilantro." - joel ang
"Alternatively, you could go to Rhythm ’N Wraps for some rather extravagant comfort food. There’s mac and cheese on top of Impossible patties, teriyaki sauce on top of a jackfruit “fried chicken” sandwich, and even some sweet plantains topped with maple syrup and green apples. It’s perfect for lunch on a day when you’re looking to induce a post-meal nap." - joel ang
"Rhythm ’n Wraps is a vegan spot in Brookline that serves burgers, tacos, and yes, fried chicken sandwiches. OK, technically, they’re fried jackfruit sandwiches, but they look just like their poultrified counterpart. Almost everything here is good, and you won’t want to miss out on the dessert section of the menu either." - Joel Ang
"The restaurant version of what started as a food truck, Rhythm ‘n Wraps serves an entirely vegetarian menu, including an Impossible Burger for “people who love meat.”" - Dana Hatic
"A food truck that’s made a name for itself slinging vegetarian-friendly wraps and curries in Cambridge has secured a permanent home at 1096 Commonwealth Ave. in Packard’s Corner. Started in 2013, Rhythm ’n Wraps regularly rotated through spots near Harvard, Alewife, and Kendall Square and is known for a menu of wraps and platters such as smoked tempeh bacon wraps, curried lentil plates, tacos with crispy fried tofu and kimchi, and smoked vegan sausage wraps. The 31-seat restaurant will have dining on the first floor and storage in the basement, will serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner with service until 1 a.m., and will continue truck operations and full-service catering; owner Aaron Cohen (not the same Aaron Cohen who owns Gracie’s Ice Cream in Somerville) intends an expanded menu so the restaurant can “really display what we can do.” The business emphasizes the value of healthy eating and the connection between food, medicine, and health, and held a grand opening on May 11, 2018." - Dana Hatic
