"This place was really good. I love seafood and the menu is perfect for a seafood lover. I got the Mariscada and it was delicious. BF got the steak and it was good, but not great. I'd stick to their seafood options 'cause it seems that they know what they're doing with that. The place is small so reservations are recommended...even on a weeknight."

"The food is really tasty and BIG. I go with a girlfriend of mine, and we get the plaintains side, yucca side (with yummy aioli type dipping sauce). Then we usually share one of their seafood dishes, the mariscada. It's in a coconut milk broth and has mussels, calimari, kinda like a yellow version of cioppino. We followed this up with coconut tapica. T..." Read more

"My hubby and I went there yesterday for dinner.
We had 1.5 muqueca completa, fried calamari for appetizer and he had soup. We also got 2 mixed juices from the juice bar. The food is delicious, needless to say, I love this place, but in the end we were left with $75 bill. For a dinner for 2 that is quite expensive..."

"I tried this place in large part because it got good yelp reviews and my expectations were certainly met. I went here with a large group and everyone seemed to be pretty happy with the offerings. I recommend ordering Tapas style assuming the people you're with people open to such things. Regardless, you must try something from the juice bar. A nice place to..." Read more

"I used to live a block from here and often stop by to pick up flan on my way home. I miss those days. Aside from the flan, try the fried yucca and the best Muqueca is the one with the seafood and coconut milk. The portions are big and you always leave happy, with leftovers."

"YUM.My boyfriend and I came on on a cold, snowy Thursday night and our meal managed to both bring us to warmer climates, and give us the warm and fuzzy feeling that comes from eating something hot, delicious, and totally soul soothing on a winter's night.We got the mariscada which is flavorful, vibrant, and comes with great sides. The plantai..." Read more

"Just went there for lunch. We had the cod patties and coconut shrimp for appetizer and mariscada and moqueca completa for entre with fried plantains on the side. All were very good and the mariscada and moqueca were absolutely delicious. For three people, we left stuffed and have another meal or two left. This was probably the best food we've had since movin..." Read more

"So I guess Brazilian food isn't all about bbq, though that wouldn't have been a problem for me. :-PThe decor reminds me of a little seafood shack somewhere like Rockport. The walls are blue, and at least one wall is lined with sea animals and objects. Muqueca is a tiny place, so the wait may be long at times.The seafood rice casserole is very..." Read more

"What can I say that hasn't already been described here? I'll just comment that.First off, come a bit early. I met some friends here on a Thursday at 7pm. I walked in at 6:50 and it was EMPTY. But by 7:15, it was TOTALLY PACKED. Literally not 1 seat left except the bar. Luckily we squeezed in to the last table. So come early, and don't be put off if y..." Read more

"SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN Simply put-I wish I could take this dreadful experience back! I walked in with high hopes for this little Brazilian nook, little did I know this would be the last time I would step foot in that miserable hell hole. We sat down and the waiter was immediately discourteous. I felt uncomfortable and rushed ordering and asking questions abo..." Read more

"Let me start off by saying that I've been to Muqueca numerous times, before it moved to its new location. The previous restaurant was small, but had this really warm, amazing atmosphere. Eating meals there always felt as if I stumbled on a great secret. It was always packed, but accommodating. Now, I don't harbor those same fuzzy feelings for this restaurant..." Read more

"My friend who is from Brazil first took me to this place a few months ago and since then I have been 4 times. The restaurant is very small but they will take a reservation so call ahead for a table. The drink menu is not very expansive, HOWEVER they make an amazing capriana and they do have a few good wines and some beer to choose from. The cuisine is nor..." Read more

"After a year on my list I finally got to Muqueca. Working with a guy from Brazil prompted me to come here for lunch. I've never had moqueca before, so don't use this review as a basis for comparison. The moqueca and mariscadas were very nice. The hot sauce on the side, ounce for ounce, was probably some of the hottest sauce I've had. The heat hit differently..." Read more

"HORRIBLE SERVICE! We came here for my friend's birthday. We were a party of 6 and my friend had made a reservation. When we arrived, they had no record of our reservation and said there was nothing they could do. We had to wait almost an hour. It would have been common courtesy to provide us with free drinks or appetizers or SOMETHING but we barely even got..." Read more

"Delicious and novel (to me). IMHO, most Cambridge churascarias (sp?) border on disgusting (low quality of meat) and overpriced (all you can eat for low quality meat, @ $25 = waste). Muqueca, however, features a substantial volume of very freshly prepared seafood served in a delicious variety of sauces. But for the price and management's inability to timel..." Read more

"Based on all the glowing reviews here I tried Muqueca last night and yep, the word on the street is for real! I had the amazing caipirinha (well 2 actually) and my beau had a couple rounds from the juice bar: excellent. The cocktail was a perfect balance of sour lime and booze... mmmmm. This drink often gets the syrupy-sweet treatment but the bar keep her..." Read more

"New place...still very good...sometimes when restaurants upgrade service and food quality take a hit...one star off for the piece of paper I got from the fish ..may have been the wrapper(I sincerely hope it was) either way I think it was cooked :)!"

"My husband and I went to Muqueca for the first time intending to use our Groupon, but we were in a hurry at the end of our meal because I had an appointment to get to and we forgot to use the coupon... Whomp, whomp. Oh well, at least the food was good enough that we won't mind going back!We started out with some juice (more like smoothies), which I r..." Read more
