"Went there on a weekday evening and it had the hum of a nice neighborhood spot. People were celebrating birthdays, on dates, or with their families. Felt welcoming and low key. We ordered the yucca with Portuguese sausage, the shrimp and fish moqueca, and the flan- this was plenty for two and left me stuffed. Of the dishes we ordered, as precious rev..." Read more

"This place is the real deal. We've been coming for 8 years and love it. Our usual is the feijoada completa complemented with the Brasilian black beer, Xingu. Muqueca is simple, and the staff are great."

"Wow was this place good. Went here with some friends on a weeknight. We were seated right away without a reservation, and the service was fast. We ordered the Fried Yucca for appetizers, which we loved, just make sure to try the spicy sauce. I also got their signature dish, the Fish Moqueca, which was delicious. Another plus is everything comes in large quan..." Read more

The fried yucca and sausage was incredible, the fried calamari was INCREDIBLE, and the muqueca was so delicious. Can't wait to go back for the calamari and try other y..." Read more

"Nice waitstaff. They messed up in our order and gave the wrong food to the wrong person. Food needs salt but as we know restaurant now can't add salt so it is what it is. I like the mussels appetizer and the steak the best"

"Good food but beware they will add 18% gratuity to your bill even for 2 people. I didn't see any sign anywhere where it said that a gratuity will be added."

"Muqueca was delicious!! The steak tips were soft, onions perfectly sautéed, and fries crispy. I was greeted in Portuguese and was able to practice my speaking as wait staff are all bilingual (I am a bilingual Spanish speaker). Every part of Muqueca is authentic - decor, waitstaff, food, music etc... I will be visiting again!!"

"Great restaurant for family and friends. All the food was tasty and hearty. Staff is friendly. Will definitely be back when I'm craving seafood and rice.
Must get a side of fried yucca: fried perfectly and not dry, with a great spicy sauce for dipping."

"They don't take reservations and half of the party got there to celebrate our friend's engagement but they said they couldn't sit us because the whole party wasn't there! This is ridiculous, rejecting business and not making guests feel welcomed! The restaurant wasn't even busy!"

"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
