"I've been here so many times and I have never once been disappointed. One of my favorite dishes is the steak that is served with rice, beans, and a fried egg. It is not super seasoned, but it is well done and is very tasty.The last time I was here, we started with fried yucca which was simple but tasty. It is a pretty sizeable portion for an appet..."

"This place is amazing. Went recently on weekend night, the only downside was the wait...it's a very small place, i would highly suggest reservations...but it is more than worth the wait. The service was great and the staff was very accommodating,they even took our order while we waited so our food was almost ready as soon as we were set. W..." Read more

"Tonight was my third dinner at Muqueca and each visit has been as delicious as the last. The restaurant is small and usually crowded, so if you can, call ahead for reservations. We waited 35 minutes for seating last night, but the staff let us place our order beforehand and by the time we had our table, our appetizers were ready and the entrees were just..." Read more

""Muqueca" is one of the only restaurants in Boston that specializes in serving muqueca capixaba (not to be confused with the similar but distinctly different muqueca baiana), a traditional Brazilian seafood stew from the state of Espirito Santo. Delicious and authentically cooked & served in traditional handmade clay pots, go to Muqueca for their signatur..." Read more

"This is, in my opinion, the best Brazilian place in the area. It's also one of the best restaurants in Boston in my view. I've been to Rio and I've only found a couple places that are better than Muqueca in Somerville.The muqueca dishes are classical favourites. The seafood casserole is also good. Be sure to try their fruit drinks - wonderful esp..." Read more

"Heard awesome things about this place so went with a few friends to check it out. This was my first non-bbq exposure to Brazilian food and I LOVE seafood so I was excited. We shared several appetizers and dishes among us to get a good sampling. The Brazilian crab cakes and fried Yuca with some kind of yummy sauce -- both awesome. The calamari was not specia..."

"If you're ever in Inman Square, I'd definitely recommend this Brazilian gem of a restaurant. The place was packed for lunch at 1pm on a Saturday afternoon, which is always a good sign. After enviously eyeing the drinks at everyone else's table, we decided to try something from the fresh juice bar. I highly highly recommend the "Brazilian Summer" made with..." Read more

"This got high reviews on Yelp, so my coworker and I decided to check this place out. I was mildly disappointed. The food was decent, but I didn't see what all the hype was about. I actually enjoyed Bossa Nova's food (in SF) more. We ordered some coconut rice dish and the fried yucca."

"145 reviews is clearly not enough, so here's another paragraph of praise. We went to Muqueca at 2PM on Sunday, and it was packed. Fortunately we knew to call ahead and we only had to wait 5 minutes when we arrived. Wherever the recession is, it must have skipped over this restaurant. It's not a fancy place, or a big place, or a center of elegant dining...." Read more

"We always start up with the order of yuka and the special sauce, that is always good. The specialty is the muquecas ( seafood stews). it comes sizzling and tasty. It comes with a side of rice so you can mix with the the muqueca. it is a very typical Brazilian seafood place. While you are there don't forget to order the Brazilian Guarana soda, cashew juice or..." Read more

"interesting food! well I have only been here once and I think I really liked it. But my friend an I also ordered something we didn't like! the crab cake was awesome. it's a lot of food and you should probably consider sharing! not a good place for vegetarians. even the veggie options have some kind of meat!!! But overall, I will go there again.."
