"I know this place since 2001. At that time, food was just as perfect as today, and at much lower price, but I never had to wait for a table. I started writing good reviews about them online, and a few years later, I regretted writing good reviews. I can't even get a table even in a slow day! If you like light but tasty codfish stew, this is the place to go...." Read more

"This is probably one of my favorite restaurants in the Boston area. If you like seafood of any sort, you should give Muqueca a whirl... and when you go, you or someone who's willing to share with you absolutely need to try one of the "muqueca" dishes and/or the mariscada. Beyond that, the fried plantains are good as are their various fresh fruit smoothies...." Read more

"I've been here so many times and I have never once been disappointed. One of my favorite dishes is the steak that is served with rice, beans, and a fried egg. It is not super seasoned, but it is well done and is very tasty.The last time I was here, we started with fried yucca which was simple but tasty. It is a pretty sizeable portion for an appet..."

"This place is amazing. Went recently on weekend night, the only downside was the wait...it's a very small place, i would highly suggest reservations...but it is more than worth the wait. The service was great and the staff was very accommodating,they even took our order while we waited so our food was almost ready as soon as we were set. W..." Read more

"Tonight was my third dinner at Muqueca and each visit has been as delicious as the last. The restaurant is small and usually crowded, so if you can, call ahead for reservations. We waited 35 minutes for seating last night, but the staff let us place our order beforehand and by the time we had our table, our appetizers were ready and the entrees were just..." Read more

"This is, in my opinion, the best Brazilian place in the area. It's also one of the best restaurants in Boston in my view. I've been to Rio and I've only found a couple places that are better than Muqueca in Somerville.The muqueca dishes are classical favourites. The seafood casserole is also good. Be sure to try their fruit drinks - wonderful esp..." Read more

"If you're ever in Inman Square, I'd definitely recommend this Brazilian gem of a restaurant. The place was packed for lunch at 1pm on a Saturday afternoon, which is always a good sign. After enviously eyeing the drinks at everyone else's table, we decided to try something from the fresh juice bar. I highly highly recommend the "Brazilian Summer" made with..." Read more

"145 reviews is clearly not enough, so here's another paragraph of praise. We went to Muqueca at 2PM on Sunday, and it was packed. Fortunately we knew to call ahead and we only had to wait 5 minutes when we arrived. Wherever the recession is, it must have skipped over this restaurant. It's not a fancy place, or a big place, or a center of elegant dining...." Read more

"We always start up with the order of yuka and the special sauce, that is always good. The specialty is the muquecas ( seafood stews). it comes sizzling and tasty. It comes with a side of rice so you can mix with the the muqueca. it is a very typical Brazilian seafood place. While you are there don't forget to order the Brazilian Guarana soda, cashew juice or..." Read more

"This place is great. They found a way to get us a table even though they were filled with reservations for the whole night. I had the moqueca with fish and it was fantastic - but I didn't love the sauce that went with it. Even better was the maranasca.... or something like that.
YUM"
