"Great service and amazing food. We had the Salad with Apples, Muqueca Complete, and Chocolate Flan! a Great meal, and an amazing find. Great service even as we walked in at about the same time as a group of 20- yikes! We had no problem being seated, and our kids meals were served up first to avoid any meltdowns. The rest of our dishes came promptly afterwar..." Read more

"And I thought Brazilian food would be just meat! This one turned out to be mostly a fish menu. I had a delicious stew with shrimp. The stew's name is eponymous (what a great term): muqueca. Also had fried yucca, which tasted like potatoes, as a table appetizer. Service was friendly, helpful. It's a small, colorful, inviting, fairly noisy restaurant that's on..." Read more

"Wow. I think this place ranks in my top 10 restaurants. The Moqueca Completa is out of this world. And the signature drink (caipirinha) is deceptively strong yet you'd never know by the taste. Amazing."

"Pretty good Brazilian food, though the drinks on offer are limited. I've been to Brazil many times and am a lover of Brazilian food. The food here is better than most -- the muqueca actually tastes like it does in Brazil, and the appetizers are pretty similar to what you would find in a restaurant in Rio. The cod balls are delicious! The only complaint is..." Read more

"A friend took me to this little gem in Cambridge. It's a little bit out of the way, but worth a visit. Their specialty is called "Muqueca" and its a clay pot with seafood in a broth. You can get it with plantain or tofu. I went for tofu... yeah right, plantains! I'm dominican, gotta have plantains in my meal :) You come here for the food, the decor is plai..." Read more

"I was so excited to discover this place on my birthday. Clay pot stews brimming with the freshest seafood. Think warm, ocean fresh bivalves and calamari and shrimp surrounded by a tomato-lime-cilantro broth. Even a plantain and tofu versions for vegetarians that was so good, I might get it next time. (And that's saying something, as I love seafood). Not m..." Read more

"Wicked good- different from the bras steak houses. Much more vegetarian and seafood friendly. Food tastes hand made and fresh- great selection, fair prices. I'd come here any day over one of the steak houses. I wish they had pao de queijo though."

"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

"Authentic Brazilian seafood with comfortable seating and fair prices. They also have a lot of dishes from the interior of Brazil. The servings are generous. If you're looking for Brazilian BBQ, this is not the place for you."

Appetizer: Fried yucca (with delicious cream dipping sauce)Entrees: Lasagna de Banana (hearty, cheesy, reminded me of eggplant parm) and their signature dish Plantain and Tofu Muqueca..." Read more

"Live in the area so thought would give this place a try, something different as I've never had Brazilian food before.Went with my bf for lunch. There was only one other table when we arrived. The service was very friendly and cheerful with smiles on their faces but SLOW as molasses. Picture 2 servers and 2 tables, what kind of service would you ex..." Read more

"It took me ages to actually come here because, well I had no idea what a portuguese seafood restaurant was and I had no idea how good it was going to be but really what people should have been telling me is that I could be eating plantains and frogs legs and finishing off with a steaming bowl of mussels, shrimp and chunks of fish.For some reason they'll..."

"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

"When people think of Brazilian food, they think steakhouse. While the steakhouses are great, Muqueca offers a different and refreshing perspective to Brazilian cuisine. There are no slabs of meat, mainly fish stews. My wife and I have tried the Muqueca Completa and Shrimp Bobo, both of which are delicious! You cannot go wrong with either. Make sure you..." Read more

"Unique twist on comfort food for a cold winter night! This was both our first visit and our first exposure to moqueca, and unfortunately we didn't have much time (though service was quick enough to get us to the concert without seeming at all rushed). We thoroughly enjoyed the rice stew and the mixed fish moqueca, and we agreed we have to put aside time to t..." Read more

"Delectable and authentic Brazilian place, specializing in moqueca. Their staple Brazilian dishes are all very good, but try their Shrimp Bobo."
