"My Brazilian friend introduced me to this restaurant and I am a big fan of this place. Their prices are reasonable and the seafood is always fresh. Nice to try something different once in a while, and all of their muqueca is great. Very friendly staff as well."

"This is one of my favorite restaurants in the Boston area that I can't find anything similar to anywhere else (in the area or in any other major city). The muquecas are absolute comfort food that is especially good on a cold day. It's a small restaurant so the wait can sometimes be a while. Since there's no waiting area, it means waiting outside."

"Shared the cod patties for appetizer, and the Fejoada Completa and the Muqueca Completa (Bahian style). Both were delicious. The restaurant is very cute and casual inside. Comfortable with children; added bonus is their bathroom has a changing table. Service was very friendly. Street parking only, but we had no problem on an early weekend night."

"A second fryer dedicated for gluten free!! I was in fried plantain heaven!! The very knowledgeable staff were also quick to inform me that the muqueca, with it's accompanying rice and muqueca "gravy" (thickened with cassava flour), were all gluten free! It was a nice feast! Ready to go back and try more options on the menu!"

"If you're looking for fresh, flavorful, Latin American inspired seafood, this is the place to go. We had reservations for 8pm on a Thursday and were promptly seated even though we arrived late and the place was fairly crowded. Cute colorful decor, an atmosphere and waitstaff that are warm and inviting. Now let's cut to the chase. We ordered the Fish Muque..." Read more

"The food is slow cooked so order some appetizers and a drink from the bar. The service is very friendly and these savory tastes of Brazil are perfect anytime for lunch or dinner."

"You guys know that they moved down the street to a bigger place, right? This was my first time eating Brazilian food, So I don't know if it's authentic or not, but what I had was really good. We shared Fried Yucca as an appetizer and the Fish with Shrimp Moqueca for our main meal. I enjoyed every bite of it and I will definitely come to try other things off..." Read more

"PheNOMenal! I didn't know how I would feel about a fish stew since I'm not used to that kind of dish, but the Mariscada was absolutely outstanding. It had shrimp, crabmeat, mussels and squid in a broth with tomato, onion and coconut milk. The flavors were incredible. I also tried one of the meat dishes, but I far preferred the seafood. The place itself i..." Read more

"Best Brazilian place I've been to in New England. I went there yesterday with a couple of friends for dinner and the food was AMAZING. We arrived there around 6:30pm on a Tuesday night and the restaurant was practically empty. There is a small bar directly ahead when you walk in and there are some bench seating and small tables to the left. This rest..." Read more
