"If I could give this place 6/5 stars, I would. This place is one of the saving graces for the terrible food scene that poor Cambridge has to offer.We came here for Sunday lunch, and as soon as the doors opened at noon, five other groups came in. The decor was really nice - did they recently remodel?We started off with fried yucca served with..." Read more

"The place is small and very crowded. I believe we waited about 20 mins for a table. The service was ok, and there was a really long wait for the food. I take it the food is made to order because everyone seemed to be waiting a long time for food. The food was absolutely worth the wait. Fresh, amazing, and large portions. We could have shared one orde..." Read more

"After thirteen years in Cambridge, we decided to finally check out Muqueca. The new space (note: they have moved a block away from their original location) is colorful enough, though the room lacks any real kind of ambience or coziness (think of it this way -- Casa Portugal has more ambience than Muqueca -- and I don't think Casa Portugal is notable for its..."

"I never thought I would start a review with such a cliche, but what can I say? Sometimes the glove fits. Here we go: I wanted to love Muqueca, I really did. It just fell a little flat for me. I see all these five star reviews, and I wish I could ride that train with y'all, but I just can't. The space was completely forgettable, other than the fact that we h..." Read more

"I ate in the old location several times and loved the food and the service. But something has changed in the new locale, which I tried for the first time last night. What you notice first is the missing warmth, charm and efficiency of the old restaurant. Despite our reservation, we were left to wait for almost 45 minutes, and the waitress/hostess didn't s..."

"Walked over here from Harvard Square. First time eating Brazilian. I had the mussel muqueca and my friend had fish muqueca. We finished off the meal with some flan and fried plantains. Yum! I left feeling satisfied/full, but not in that uncomfortable/gross way.
Thanks Yelp for a great recommendation!"

"I really enjoyed this place. First off, you have to try their fresh fruit juice; Their pina colada and Tropical Freeze (Banana, Pineapple, Orange Juice, Cashew & Passion Fruit) is REALLY fresh & well worth the money. Their seafood is really fresh - their fish was delicious! We ordered a fish/rice plate and a tripe stew. Overall, everything was really wel..." Read more

"My review, as relayed to me by my boyfriend in the car on the way home from dinner (imagine high girlie voice and crazy hand motions): "Oh my gosh, I can't believe this restaurant. It was soooooo good. I mean, I read on Yelp that it would be good, but it was soooooo good. I had the Shrimp Moqueca, and my boooyfriend had the Mariscada. Mine was a little..." Read more

"Got back from Brazil a few weeks ago ... I was jittery, cold, difficulty staying awake ... yup, definite diagnosis of Brazil withdrawal syndrome. My friend prescribed dinner at Muqueca. We experimented with the fried frog legs ... tasted like chicken to my unsophisticated palate. The seafood muqueca was excellent, full of bubbly goodness, great spices, and l..." Read more

"Well.. We went to the restaurant only to find "Coming soon" board on it's window. Shoking, ain't it ? Especially so when you go during snowy rain that's boston's gods special weather. Thankfully, the staff who are working at the restaurant directed us to a little establishment which is mother of this one which is going to come soon. So, we walked a block f..." Read more

"I went here about 2 months ago, and have been meaning ever since to warn people about this place. Food was fine, albeit overpriced (-1 star), but the service is what is making them get a bad review (-3 stars). My party of 4 came in around 6 on a weeknight and were seated pretty quick. The place had maybe 3 other parties serviced by 3 waitstaff. It shou..." Read more

"Really good. I'm not going to try to remember the brazillian names of the dishes - I'll just butcher them - but they were meat and seafood stews. They were great, the fruit frappé was too (not too sweet, lots of passionfruit) and finished with possibly the best flan ever. And the service was informal and friendly, just the way it should be. I want to give i..." Read more

"Yucca - a must try.Crispy exterior delicious mouth warming interior. We added sausage, but it's not necessary. Lasagana with sweet banana - WOW mouth melting 3 different kinds of cheese, with perfectly made sweet, soft platians. Though the cheese wasn't the best cheese on the earth - still a great dish. Now for the Muqueca - we ordered the fish/shrimp one..." Read more

"You know when you find something on sale for a REALLY cheap price but you don't love it as much as you would like to? You're so tempted to get it, but you know you'll never wear/use it. Muqueca was kind of like that for me.This place gets so many five stars! The menu also seems like it's entirely oriented around the authenticity of Brazilian food. I..." Read more

"I've been here a lot over the years. Muqueca is great Brazilian seafood. Everything on the menu is flavorful and incredible.My favorite is the mariscada - incredible. I often add in a fish and shrimp moqueca - which I don't find as tasty, but is still really good.I've also had crab cakes, yucca, coconut shrimp, steak tips with onions and fries, and..." Read more

"The food was absolutely delicious! I ordered the seafood casserole with rice! I highly recommend this dish.
The place is a bit small, but we ended up waiting for just 10-15 minutes on a Friday night. So, all in all, I enjoyed the atmosphere and had a yummy dinner."

"Muqueca is a must for those who have never tried Brazilian food. Its dishes are representative of some of the most popular foods in Brazil (I'm Brazilian), and it's cheap!I recommend1) The fried yucca (mandioca in Portuguese) but think they should be eaten without the sauce and with extra salt. That way you can actually taste it!2) Rice and..." Read more
