"Just to give you an idea, I was sitting next to a Brazilian guy who came all the way from Cape Cod and described this place as the "best Brazilian restaurant in the Northern Hemisphere [..] and I've been to Panama and other countries." Every patron in the restaurant seemed to be so happy to be eating this food, be it they were in groups, a date, or..." Read more

"Finally! Something I bookmarked and actually got to try! Love the neighborhood in Cambridge. This was a wonderful way to celebrate my 3rd month in MA. Cute little joint I think my friend Marie and I met the owner/chef. She was wonderful. She took us on a tour of the menu and it's everything other Yelpers have been barking about but better when you get to eat..." Read more

"I'll just pile on. Great food, and good prices. It is popular and small, so there is sometimes a wait. I recommend going early."

"Muqueca is on the outskirts of Inman Square but certainly worth the short walk, I got the Mariscada which inconspicuously says on the menu "Must Try". It was basically some kind of seafood stew with mussels, shrimp, squid, and crab meat. It came with a good side of rice, some kind of warm plantain soup that you are supposed to put on top of the Mariscada, I..." Read more

"Great food, great juices, and the price is just right. Walked in on a Saturday night at seven on a whim, they had two big reservations but maneuvered the tables and sat our party of two along with another no reservation party of two within twenty minutes. I felt bad when both large parties were late and incomplete but the staff handled it quite well. We spli..." Read more

"There are not enough stars for this place. The restaurant might not like reservations for 17 people on a Friday at 630pm, but they will do it. The small place gets packed around 7pm..didn't really see many people having to wait because it seemed to have a good turn around rate with customers coming and going. Appetizers: Calamari not a fan of their brea..." Read more

"We loved the food! We had the fish muqueca, which was excellent (esp if you like cilantro), and the Cod Capixaba (salted cod with hard boiled eggs, plantain & coconut milk), which was DIVINE. We started with Brazilian patties of cod, also excellent. The waitstaff was very nice and friendly (including personal visits to our tables by both owners), prices exce..." Read more

"It's probably not fair to write a review of a restaurant without trying its food, but I must give an enthusiastic thumbs-up to the service at Muqueca. I went to buy a gift certificate on a Sunday afternoon and although the place was surprisingly bustling, the two women who greeted me and processed my purchase were so friendly! I have been to many other pla..." Read more

"This place was as good the second time as the first, and deserves an upgrade to five stars. I got the vegetarian muqueca (with plantains and tofu), and I didn't care that it was missing meat. That to me is the mark of a good vegetarian dish. The service is good, the price is acceptable, and the stews are awesome."

"As a rule of thumb, people should try restaurants whose names are difficult to pronounce just by reading the sign on the outside. I'm so glad I finally tried Muqueca. It's the kind of ethnic cuisine that people travel far and wide to try; not just because you're "in the neighborhood." It's also the kind of cuisine that you're not sure whether to order for..."

"This place is fantastic! I was lucky enough to dine here the last two times I visited my sister and brother-in-law in Cambridge. I don't know if its even worth the trip now that they've moved to a different neighborhood (just kidding, just kidding!).I can't list specifics from memory, but the seafood stews we ordered were like a slice of Portuguese h..."
