"One more restaurant to check off of my Must Eat At list! And it was almost as good as the Yelp hype. 4.5 stars. First off, I was worried about the wait on a Saturday night. I called ahead and while they didn't have any reservations available til 8pm, they said they'd put me on the "waiting list" and do their best to seat us. When we arrived at 6:30, they sa..."

"This place was really good! Very tiny place - there is absolutely no waiting area what so ever. I felt like I was eating dinner at someone's home - the waitstaff all spoke Portuguese and were very friendly. The Brazilian food was very good - the moquecas, plantains and rice were extremely filling and very reasonably priced. For about $20 a person we prac..." Read more

"Glad I read some reviews before going because I was willing to wait it out until my friends and I got a table on a Saturday night. It was worth it. Great flavors and portions for the main courses, and the blended juice drinks went well with it all. I'd recommend reservations. I read somewhere here that they don't take them on Friday's and Saturday's? I don..." Read more

"I chose Muqueca for my last meal in the Boston area (for a while, at least) because I was in the mood for plantains. This inspired me to order the "Lasagna de Banana", which, despite its name, wasn't bad at all--though the sheer quantity of cheese started to bog me down after a little while. I got to try a little bit of my mother's muqueca and it was wonderf..." Read more

"Awesome Brazilian food and very reasonable. I have to agree with previous reviews-get here early or go on a weeknight if possible. The food is worth a wait, but the place is tight and you don't want to be pressed against other folks waiting in this place, unless it is bitter cold and you just need to be squeezed into a tight space with a passel of other hu..."

"If Muqueca is crowded, get take out. Don't sit down if Muqueca is crowded. I repeat, do not try to eat Muqueca when it is crowded. It doesn't matter how good the food tastes if you have to wait an hour and a half sitting at a table with no water and not a glance from the harried wait staff, future diners with their asses up against the edge of your table..."

"Order the Muqueca, the dish for which the restaurant is named. Buttery rice and a hotpot of fresh, flakey fish, tomatoes, onions, cilantro and if you want, shrimp and/or mussels. Enough for two meals...."

"Inman Square has a good number of Brazilian and Portuguese restaurants, but this one has started to get a great buzz. We went on Saturday night at about 8 with a part of 4, and were surprised there wasn't an open table. I would definitely recommend making a reservation just to be sure because it's quite small. We started with the fried yucca. The yucca..." Read more

"The namesake Muqueca is wonderful, so are some of the other variations like the seafood rice. The flavors are delicate and complex and the dishes are both colorful and fragrant. It's not so salty and meaty like most of the other Brazilian food I've had (even though I do like that type of food too). Nice place."

"I had never experienced Brazilian food before eating here, but afterwards I was totally taken by it. The food all smelled amazing, and tasted the part as well! The various dishes are interesting, filling, and most importantly, mighty delicious. The restaurant itself is pretty small, so you can expect to wait on a weekend night."

"I was very impressed to find a restaurant with a menu almost completely composed of items I had never heard of before. I mean, how many places can you say that about? I tried several dishes - all were quite intricate and tasty. The wait-staff was great, too.
If you go, be sure to get one of the fresh juices. Also, Muqueca is BYOB."

"I love this place. Great neighborhood spot for Brazilan food and the owners are absolutely delightful. Bright, colorful, small and informal dining space with Brazilian TV going in the background. The restaurant is named for the fish stew that is from that part of Brazil. A big stone pot will come to your table overflowing with fish or mixed seafood, brig..." Read more

"While you're reading this review, wondering if you should try it, the line is lengthening. So, I'll keep it short. You'll love anything that includes a mix of seafoods served in an old-country pot. Bye."
