"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!"

"So glad we found this Brazilian restaurant in Cambridge. We came here for dinner during our Boston visit. It's a little out of the way from the touristy areas of Boston and Cambridge but worth the longer walk. We ordered the Coconut Shrimp for an appetizer and the Seafood Rice, Fish Moqueca, and Feijoada Completa for our entrees. They were all very good. ..." Read more

I will certainly be returning.Specifically, the Calamari (which I expect to be hit or miss) was very good. (As was our second plate). Everyone was happy with their food, and the fresh juices (Passion Blue, pineapple mint) were amazing. The sirloin..." Read more

"Came here on a weekday night and this place was still bumping! We started off with the classic fries Hucca. The yucca came with a spicy hot sauce which complimented the yucca well. The yucca was crisp on the outside and very soft and crumbly on the inside - fried to perfection. For my main, I got their specialty - Fish Moqueca and my friend got a Fis..." Read more

"the fried red snapper was a bit on the blander side but perhaps that's bc I didn't put enough of the seasoning they gave on the sides. The yucca and the dried beef was delicious. Imagine non-greasy fries with beef that is tender enough but not fatty. The shrimp bobó sheesh that was absolutely delicious. Putting that atop the rice that comes with it. Wow. Tr..." Read more

"I went in this place with high expectations, the fish looks so good in the pictures, but when I ordered, the flavor is strong, a lot of garlic on the fish and on the rice, the soda was tasted old, they don't give you guaraná can and they charge you so much, too pricey for the quality, the waitress didn't give us time to think to order, she was on side of th..."

I ordered the fish moqueca ($18.95 Uber eats). It came with two takeout boxes of rice and a small takeout bowl of fish gravy. The stew had a tomato base with..." Read more
