"Muqueca is an unassuming restaurant with dishes that are delicious! I always wanted to stop by, but happened to catch it on an episode of Neighborhood Kitchens, and made it a point to visit. And I was satisfied with the fish soup, the Mouqueca Completa and the house cocktail! All on point!"

"Cute little place! Really enjoyed the caipirinhas- refreshing and strong! I had the seafood casserole, which was also excellent and flavorful. Service was good. Cute ambience with lots of fish themes. Will definitely be back!"

"This place is great. We've only done delivery, but it's been consistently delicious, and everything is unique. And we live practically next door, but their delivery is always prompt and hot. Highly recommend."

"Tasty, decently priced Brazilian seafood stews with freshly squeezed juices = a nice tropical respite in an otherwise grey and cold season. The fried yucca is the way to go for an app- it's fried perfectly, and that mustardy dipping sauce is a great compliment. The boy had the feijoida completa, which was a lot of good and heavy food made tastier with the h..." Read more

"Perfect. Nice staff. I had a wonderful dinner with my friends. I'm from Brazil and the food was just like in my country. Muqueca baiana as made in Bahia.
You have a wonderful restaurant."

"Service staff were attentive and friendly. Prices were reasonable for the amount of food you get. My party of two ordered the fish muqueca, calamari, and some sort of seafood rice dish I can't recall the name of. Overall I felt the taste to be pretty bland. They relied on the sauces to add any flavor and stopped by our table twice to ask if we had hot sauce..." Read more

"Got dinner here on a Saturday night - the place was pretty crowded, though it seemed very family friendly. A lot of the seafood and moqueca entrees sound very similar, and we opted for the mariscada, which came with a plaintain moqueca and crumbled plaintain topping, and the fish moqueca, which came with a side sauce. The rice was fragrant and both of the se..." Read more

"Order a last minute catering order for an event that was in 3 hours and they were willing to work with me! The food was awesome! everyone seemed to like it. The bread balls were super good and the beef plate was seasoned to mouth watering goodness. If you want to get catering for an event, this place was definitely a hit in terms of atypical but tastey food..." Read more

"Expensive -- all entrees seem to be in the 20$ range -- and not super tasty. Pretty bland and the fish stew wasn't very tender. The quantity of food was okay, but nothing like extra special or anything. I got the chocolate flan (4.50$), and it was quite tasty. It's not as rich as the other comments make it seem, it's what'd I'd expect from any chocolate dess..." Read more

"Great food, great service, great ambience.
Must try the fried yucca, muquecas, coconut shrimp, mariscada, fried frog legs if that is your thing. Desserts are also incredible but huge."

"This is truly one of the gems of East Cambridge. Full of flavor and character, Muqueca provides a great, albeit a bit noisy when the blender is going, dining experience. It is a bit pricey, but there's enough to share for two or for tomorrow's lunch."
