"We ordered the calamari, mariscada, fish muqueca, and chicken vegetable broth for delivery. The calamari had the ratio of breading to calamari that we like a lot and the sauce was very nice. The Mariscada sauce was also amazing with a great assortment of seafood. Fish muqueca was also delicious although I find it interesting to cook fish in so much sauce...." Read more

"I've been in Boston for almost 3 months now, and this is the first place I've been to that compelled me to write a review. Our dinner at Muqueca was the best I've had in Boston. We arrived on a Saturday night around 8 and waited about 15 min for a two person table, but I'd recommend a reservation because it's a very small space. We ordered the coconut shr..." Read more

"Really, really, really good. :) This place is a nice little restaurant with Brazilian food. The tables were a little too close to each other which made it a little uncomfortable for having private conversations. The moqueca was so great that it made the experience worth while and it was enough for two people."

"Aside from the lack of alcohol, Muqueca is a fantastic find. As a seafood junkie, Muqueca is my seafood fix. The seafood is fresh, the service is pleasant, and the range of classic to exotic dish selections is aplenty. There are also a number of non-seafood dishes, but I would suggest non-seafoodies to visit their website to review the menu before a visi..." Read more

""Muqueca" is one of the only restaurants in Boston that specializes in serving muqueca capixaba (not to be confused with the similar but distinctly different muqueca baiana), a traditional Brazilian seafood stew from the state of Espirito Santo. Delicious and authentically cooked & served in traditional handmade clay pots, go to Muqueca for their signatur..." Read more

"Yelp was right. It's tasty and worth the walk to Inman and the price. We got there around 8:00 and it was pretty empty, but by 8:30 on a Thursday night, there was probably a 15 min wait. Solid 4 stars."

"Delicious. i recommend the Muqueca- a fish stew from a region in Brazil. Its large enough to split with two. For me, the best sides are the kale and plantains (banana frita.)
Some of the dishes are too much meat for me, but Muqueca's signature dish is the brilliant fish stew!
Small place and sometimes there is a long wait."

"i really like this place. the food is very yummy, mostly fish (duh, it's fish stew), which is rather different from many of the brazilian restaurants i have been too. the place is very tiny, but feels cozy and friendly. definitely get a few people to go so that you can try different dishes. Any muqueca dishes are definitely signature dishes, but also try..." Read more

"Who doesn't love Muqueca's food, friendly service, warm decor, and authenticity? I won't bother to say much about those well established joys.I found out last night that they take reservations... Even for two people. How did I find out? When I walked in the door at 7 with my bf, the staff got panicky. They had several empty tables ,but they were..." Read more

"So good. So crowded. but So good. MMMM I need to try this banana lasagna people are talking about! I've been here several times, always with new people, and so excited to show them my hidden jewel! The fish stew is just lovely, especially on a cold rainy Boston day. They also make fresh juices. Ahhh.. Brazil"

"If you're lucky enough to grab a seat, go for it! Otherwise, there's not much room to wait. We finally made it in on our 2nd attempt. The space is tiny, but it creates a fun, authentic atmosphere.We tried a couple of the muqueqas, the signature dishes, which were wonderful for a cold winter night. The stews stay warm and are pretty filling withou..." Read more

"A quaint, family-run place. We went here for Valentine's Day and thoroughly enjoyed our meal! The only reason they get four rather than five stars is because we weren't seated for our 7pm reservation until 7:30. The place was packed, barely enough room for their tables, I'm not even sure why they take reservations. I was a little annoyed that they didn..." Read more

"Wow was this a good meal! My husband and I ventured out of our 'hood tonight for an anniversary treat and decided to head to Muqueca on our friend's recommendation. Absolutely everything we ate was flavorful and fresh, and overall the atmosphere was very friendly and authentic. Not the quickest service (I asked for water twice before getting any) but, on the..."

"it's delicious. we had fried snapper, sweet plantain, brazilian summer, ... and the mango mousse was so rich. the shrimp muqueca was the least favorite. the waitresses were friendly. the place is tiny and packed, so be prepared to wait and get rushed out. i guess that's part of the experience, and it's well worth it."
