"Good paella in a pinch, but nothing to write home about. Taste of dishes reminds me a bit of a chain restaurant, as if the meal was mass-produced. I don't believe the restaurant is part of a chain, however."

"This place offers very unique food, which is nice in the time of burgers and pizza. But just beware that there are A TON of fried options here! As in, it's almost impossible to order an appetizer that isn't fried!We started with the fried yucca, which was nicely cooked and the sauce that came with it was a good, light accompaniment. We also had a fri..." Read more

"Such a cute place! Came for dinner and really loved the food. Wine is great at $5 a glass. We ordered crab cakes and it came in such a cute clay pot and was steaming hot. Delicious! My two friends and I shared the special fish dish thst comes in a big pot and with rice. So good. Only complaint is that is is lit up like a Christmas tree inside. For a dinner p..." Read more

"The food here was very good, but I think my expectations were set too high because of the reviews here. Nothing really blew me away, and the service was so-so. I had the shrimp and fish moqueca bahia style (with coconut milk, but you couldn't really taste it). My boyfriend had the whole fried red snapper, which I thought was better than my dish. The rice was..." Read more

"My Brazilian coworker raves about this place and comes regularly with her family, so I wanted to give it a shot! Let me start by saying that this was my first experience with Brazilian food other than steakhouses, so I can't comment on the authenticity of Muqueca. I'm just comparing the experience to the various other Latin and European foods that I've had...." Read more

"The cocktails are made with low alcoholic content, which for a brazilian kaipirinha makes it a little bit awkward."

"Their bacalhau (lightly fried salted codfish) balls has significantly higher mashed potato content than fish. But it was good. In a potatoey type of way.If you're looking for Bahia style moqueca stew- with coconut milk then oops wrong place. They serve Espirito Santo style (without coconut milk). Which is pretty good too.~ $22 for a moqueca c..." Read more

"My experience at Muqueca is perfectly described as A-OK. I've actually been wanting to check out Muqueca for quite awhile now, especially after reading great reviews on Yelp and elsewhere. I'm also a huge fan of Brazilian BBQ, so I figured why not try other traditional dishes? I really wanted to love Muqueca... Perhaps my expectations were ju..." Read more

"Clearly, Muqueca's a popular and highly regarded spot with great tradiotional Brasilian cuisine. I tried the Fish and Calamari Moqueca which was quite tasty - softer flavors that came through nicely without any hint of blandness and well-cooked white fish and calamari. BUT...at $24, I have to say I can get considerably better for the same or less. It just..." Read more

"I was really excited to try Muqueca, because I LOVE Bom Cafe, and they're under the same ownership.I had Feijoada Completa, the Brazillion National dish. The collard greens and plantains were good. I found the black bean stew to be just okay. It had a very strong black bean taste...so much that I couldn't really enjoy the other flavors in the stew (t..." Read more

"Just OK. There were some good, but also some bad. I ended up leaving feeling underwhelmed... PROS: * Yuca as an appetizer -- definitely recommended! * Pineapple/Mint smoothie -- ah-mazing! CONS: * the calamari -- obviously frozen (all same-sized rings with a think breading that couldn't have been fresh). although the owner was kind enough to take it a..." Read more

"As a brazilian living abroad is always nice to find a brazilian restaurant when missing home.One of the problems I usually find is to reproduce the quality, richness and variety of a brazilian restaurant abroad, due to the difficulty to fine products.This place may not be as good as a brazilian restaurant set in Brazil, but for a place trying..."

"Made reservations for 7:30PM on a Tuesday. Place was somewhat busy with 3-4 tables open. As others have mentioned, this place is pretty authentic including the waitstaff. Service was ok, nothing special. Our waters were always being filled. Appetizer/sides Plantains...can't go wrong with this. Fried Yucca...ok. Entrees Seafood Rice Casserole...good/r..." Read more

"I went here with a real live Brazilian and let him do the ordering...I was a little disappointed by the appetizer selection, because almost everything was fried. But if that's how they do it in Brazil.... So we tried the cod patties ($6.95) and the fried yucca ($4.95). The fried yucca was pretty good, but I more liked the cod patties, especially b..."

"I love any place where the people that work there actually represent the culture of the food. So A+ there, Muqueca. But I don't like paying way more money for food that really isn't as flavorful as I feel it should be, especially for all of the lovely stew/muqueca options that you have here! Even with our buywithme we still spent $40 of our money for just..." Read more

"Came here on a late Saturday afternoon. The food was delicious but the service is what knocked off the last two stars. The waitress was rather surly to us because she didn't think we'd ordered enough and we got our food later than people who sat down after us. My friend had gone here the week before and she mentioned that she and her dad definitely were not..." Read more

"Good food! My fish and shrimp moqueca simply needed more salt or seasoning ... was very bland. But overall, very good. The flan is the best flan I've ever tasted! Delicious! Great service and great presentation of food. Would definitely return!"
