"The food was not something to say so loud, I experienced a lot better muqueca. So, I was disappointed with this place first of all.

"After they moved to their new location, they had a bumpy time adjusting, and I held off going there for a while. I'm talking, waiting 45 minutes for a table and ordering appetizers so it would be ready by the time we had a table, then waiting 45 minutes after we got a table for our main dishes, when the appetizers never came. And we were starving. To be fair..." Read more

"As a brazilian living abroad is always nice to find a brazilian restaurant when missing home. One of the problems I usually find is to reproduce the quality, richness and variety of a brazilian restaurant abroad, due to the difficulty to fine products. This place may not be as good as a brazilian restaurant set in Brazil, but for a place trying to bring so..." Read more

"I come here primarily for the muqueca - seafood stewed with generous portions of tomatoes and onions. I have had all the different combinations of mussel, shrimp, fish and I was never disappointed. This is an absolute must-have comfort food for the long cold winter days of Boston. The stew is served piping hot in a clay(?) pot, and is very yummy eaten with t..." Read more

"The best Brazilian food in Boston.  I've had a few of the entrees and the chicken stroganoff, which was very tasty.  Not a great wine list, but the food is what will bring you back here anyways."

"Just went there for the first time, and it was amazing!! I had the Shrimp Muqueca and it was really good! Almost ate the entire dish by myself! My husband had the Feijoada Completa, which he really liked as well. I didn't really like it, maybe because I'm not a huge fan of black beans. Skip the desserts, I had the chocolate flan, which wasn't really good. Go..." Read more
