"A conversation I could imagine having about this place: Me- It is really really good Brazilian restaurant. Fictional Friend- Oh, I LOVE Brazilian BBQ Me- Well I do too, but this place isn't a BBQ place it is more of a seafood place and their namesake specialty dish is a stew like dish with all types of veggies and seafood that comes out boiling in these..."

"I love this place!!! You need to go a few times to try the muquecas, the feijoada, the steak and the strogonof... and also make sure you try the fresh fruit juices while you are there.This is true authentic Brazilian food, not like the Midwest Grill that has a fake churrascaria set-up (that used to be across the street, but now muqueca moved further..."

"I went to Muqueca with my family last week-end and the adults shared 3 dishes: the Feijoada, their Plantain Lasagna and a "Muqueca Completa". Of the three, the only one I was familiar with was the Faijoada, and I must say this was the best I have had so far. The Muqueca was also very good while the Plantain Lasagna, although a bit heavy with all the cheese..." Read more

"An escape from the ordinary....this colorful restaurant really makes you feel like you are in an exotic oasis. Start with the fried yucca and a fruit juice. I followed this with the jumbo shrimp curry which was delicious. Friends tried the Muqueca , the Feijouda and the Mariscada ...everyone enjoyed their meals---six out of six- it was a hit! Would go ba..." Read more

"So Good. I love Indian, Thai, Mexican and Caribbean food and I have several go to places, however yesterday I wanted to try something new. This place hit the spot! Best food I've had in a Boston restaurant in years. The plantain Moqueca and the "must try" Mariscada (shrimp, mussels, tomato and onions in a spicy coconut milk reduction) was am..." Read more

"This is a little cozy brazilian restaurant has a colorful decoration that is reminiscent of its origins. The place itself may feel a little tight (there's only space enough for something like 7 tables, though I heard from the waiter that they are soon to be moved closeby to a bigger place), but this also helps to create an intimate environment. I've..." Read more

The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated, the wait staff was very friendly (kid-friendly too) and willing to explain the unfamiliar dishes.From the juice bar, I had the Blue Cazu, which the waitress explained had a..."

"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 ranch, which..." 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..."

"We went to Mueque for the first time tonight. To be honest, the service was really slow (and it took a long time for the wait staff to even decide where we should sit, and the place wasn't crowded). I said to my friend, "the food had better be great." It was. Really, really great. Tender, delicious cuts of meat, huge portions, delicious sauces. Well worth..." Read more
