"I love this place and every single person I've ever brought here for a meal - and I always bring out-of-town guests who visit - love this place. They've just moved to larger and swankier digs, but the homey and comforting atmosphere remains the same, as do the outstanding muqueca dishes which are tasty, tasty, tasty. The ingredients are nothing unusual - shr..." Read more

"first off, don't expect to be in and out of here within an hour. the food takes time to prepare so you'll be sitting around watching other people eat before you get the chance to. If you're starving, go next door for a bag of chips to hold you over. You'll need it. This place did not disappoint. I had the Fish and Shrimp Muqueca. It's a seafood stew served..." Read more

"I went to Muqueca with my family last week-end and the adults shared 3 dishes: the Feijoada, their Plantain Lasagna and a "Muqueca Completa". Of the three, the only one I was familiar with was the Faijoada, and I must say this was the best I have had so far. The Muqueca was also very good while the Plantain Lasagna, although a bit heavy with all th..." Read more

"I love this place!!! You need to go a few times to try the muquecas, the feijoada, the steak and the strogonof... and also make sure you try the fresh fruit juices while you are there.This is true authentic Brazilian food, not like the Midwest Grill that has a fake churrascaria set-up (that used to be across the street, but now muqueca moved further..."

The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated, the wait staff was very friendly (kid-friendly too) and willing to explain the unfamiliar dishes.From the juice bar, I had the Blue Cazu, which the waitress explained had a..."

"If I could give this place 6/5 stars, I would. This place is one of the saving graces for the terrible food scene that poor Cambridge has to offer. We came here for Sunday lunch, and as soon as the doors opened at noon, five other groups came in. The decor was really nice - did they recently remodel? We started off with fried yucca served with ranch, which..." Read more

"Walked over here from Harvard Square. First time eating Brazilian. I had the mussel muqueca and my friend had fish muqueca. We finished off the meal with some flan and fried plantains. Yum! I left feeling satisfied/full, but not in that uncomfortable/gross way.
Thanks Yelp for a great recommendation!"

"I really enjoyed this place. First off, you have to try their fresh fruit juice; Their pina colada and Tropical Freeze (Banana, Pineapple, Orange Juice, Cashew & Passion Fruit) is REALLY fresh & well worth the money. Their seafood is really fresh - their fish was delicious! We ordered a fish/rice plate and a tripe stew. Overall, everything was really wel..." Read more

It was soooooo good. I mean, I read on Yelp that it would be good, but it was soooooo good. I had the Shrimp Moqueca, and my boooyfriend had the Mariscada. Mine was a little..." Read more
