"My home away from home is Vila Velha, Espirito Santo, Brasil, where I had my first taste of Moqueca. Watching my sister-in-law make it in one of those clay pots, the smell coming from the kitchen was like heaven. This place has the best authentic Moqueca in the area. I'm glad I found this place, it brings me home, even for a short while. Favorites: Mo..." Read more

"You know those restaurants that you've come to time and time again that have never disappointed you? Muqueca, to me, is one of those restaurants. As a result I know that when I peruse the menu, everything is potentially delicious.

Highlights: Capirinhas! The Fried Snapper! Any of the Muqueca!

Book a table on weekend nights."

"My bf took me here for my birthday and we had to try the signature dish, the moqueca completa in addition to the seafood casserole. They were both delicious! We also had some cod cakes that were not bad either. We had the flan for dessert and we give it two thumbs up. If you have a craving for seafood stew, this is your place!"

"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
