"Our to go place for Brazilian food. We like the friendly service and the choice between meat (beef stroganoff is my favorite) and seafood (all of their muqueca are great). Fried yucca and bunuelos (chicken or cod) are always a great start. Good cocktails and service very attentive to children. Their patio in the summer is comfortable and a nice change from i..."

"I've been meaning to try Muqueca for a long time but the place is always busy on weekends. I gave in and decided to try them by delivery. I ordered the Lasagne di Banane (plantain lasagna) which comes with a side of rice or salad. The lasagna was decadent and delicious. The best way to describe the dish is that fried sweet plantains were combined with a rich..." Read more

"I went here with my family tonight. This place was highly recommended to me by a colleague of mine. I would classify this as a Brazilian Seafood restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. It's Cambridge so parking can be a bit tough but we still managed."

"The house dish Moqueca is a perfect plate, although I loved the Brazilian "Picanha." Suitable for anyone who wants to meet the first quality of Brazilian food experience, even for Brazilians, cause if it were in Brazil would be one of the best places. Meet or fish, it doesn't matter, both are good. The waiters are very kind and funny, some of them are Brazil..." Read more

"I can't believe I haven't written about Muqueca, which I've been to multiple times. The fish stews are always amazing, with deep flavors, lots of fish, in each of the stews. The plantains are strong as well. The stews go really well with rice. I can't quite remember how the other dishes are, but generally everything is rather special."

"Great neighborhood Brazilian restaurant! Plenty of authentic options to eat. A few basic options if you have a picky eater in the group. Full bar with great drinks. The caipirinhas were delicious! The sautéd shrimp was amazing & a must order! The steak was cooked to perfection. Great option for dinner in the area!"

"Last night I ate the fried calamari, which is delicious, and the seafood rice as an entree. Seafood rice was big enough to share! Very good and every bite had shrimp, mussels, or calamari. I swear the calami was better in the rice dish than the fried rings. And the fried calamari is seriously good. That's a lot of rambling.. but just know the food wa..." Read more

"I've been enjoying placing orders from Muqueca for a while. I visited there recently, and predictably, it's better! Because it's so delicious and you get so much food for the price, I almost always get the sirloin steak. I can't wait to return and truly eat the dishes that they are famous for."

"The food at Muqueca was absolutely amazing!! We ordered the Fish Moqueca and the Mariscada and honestly fell in love with both! The rich, flavorful broth pairs so well with the seafood and rice... they're both delicious dishes that are so perfect on a chilly Boston night. Their dishes are served in clay pots which makes for a fun presentation. They also have..." Read more
