"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

"Unique excellent food that you can't find anywhere. The price has gone up as the restaurant became more popular though."

"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 all-time favorite hearty, feel-good, unpretentious neighborhood restaurant. The seafood casserole is fabulous and made a believer out of my sister (who never eats seafood)."

"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

"Awesome clay pot cookery of fresh seafood and vegetables served with enchanting, searing habanero sauce. Reasonably priced, parking around back, and nice decor. A winner!"

"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 :)!"

"The service here is weird. We came in and the two servers continued to converse and giggle for a few minutes before they paid any attention to us. Once we were seated, service was again kind of spotty for a while. After we ordered, everything was fine.I loved my caipirinha. How can you not get the official drink of Brazil when here? It was strong, in..." Read more

"Great place, new space is a bit sterile compared to the eclectic (smaller) space closer to the heart of Inman Square. Not traditional BBQ, seafood prepared in delicious stew like concoctions. Get the shrimp Bobo unbelievably good, creamy savory good. I liked the warmth and coziness of the original space, but the food tumps all!"

"My boyfriend and I went to Muqueca for dinner last week. I got the tofu/plantain muqueca, based on Yelp suggestions, and both my boyfriend and I were definitely not fans. It had a mushy consistency and was somewhat bland. The juice bar was very cool -- I would recommend trying something from there if you go."

"Oh. My. Goodness. So awesome!I had the mussel and fish moqueca with a side of fried plaintains. The plantains were so delicious; the moqueca was totally ridiculous. I've never had moqueca before and I know I'll be going back as often as I can afford. It was in a tasty, but sort of thin, broth, chock full of mussels - I was expecting maybe 5-10 musse..."

"Wow! Really great food--and the price is right. Business is definitely doing well after their move to the new place. Even with the liquor license, their mixed juices are the way to go. The staff is friendly, and the food is just really, really tasty. And, you will have enough left over for lunch the next day."
