"Considering I live in the area, I really had no excuse for waiting so long to check this place out! There's a bunch of Portuguese on Cambridge Street, but this spot is actually Brazilian. Despite coming on a Sunday night, it was actually pretty busy, so that's always a good sign! The decor was fairly nice, without being overly upscale. To start, we shared t..." Read more

"I ate dinner here with friends and their 2y/o son on a weekend. Everybody loved the combination of an enticing menu and a kid-friendly place. Cute decor! The seafood soups were good, although I thought mine (fish) could have used some salt, and I only say that because I usually think restaurant food is oversalted. The desserts were definitely worth leaving r..." Read more

"This has to be one of the CUTEST, family-owned restaurants I've visited yet. When you walk in, you feel like family. The decors, the atmosphere, the people - ALL LOVELY! Because I was moving out of Boston, the owners offered me a free entree and wished me luck in my future endeavors. This was such a memorable and heartwarming experience - I'll never forget i..."

"Absolutely delicious, the fish and shrimp muqueca was amazing and the fried yuca will be a staple in our household. Crab cake was good, as well. Definitely ask for a side of hot sauce if you can do spicy food! Feels very cozy, not at all corporate. Almost like you're part of the family. Definitely worth the price for the food."

"The specialty Moqueca was a bowl full of fish and stewed veggie goodness. So much flavor and warmth packed into the sizzling clay pot it is served in. On top of that, the fried Yucca are better than any French fries I've had in my life.

One of my favorite spots in the Camberville area for an affordable comfort feast."

"Muqueca feels like an authentic Brazilian local joint, lots of families and older people that I didn't know were in the area! Fried yucca served with a ranch-like dip, reinforced the potato fry taste. The yucca texture lends itself to looking like a natural thousand layer potato which was pretty cool. It does get a little dry on the inside though. Also got..." Read more

"We had a delicious dinner here on a recent visit to Boston. First, they have a limited bar, beer wine and some vodka based drinks. That was fine, the vodka, pineapple, mint, Prosecco Cocktail was delicious. It was blended ice with fresh pineapple and was delicious! We also had fried yucca and sautéed shrimp for appetizer.

"Simply the best moqueca I have had since I left Brazil. My girlfriend is from Porto Alegre, and I have now started a household-wide conflict by claiming that the moqueca here in Cambridge was just as good as her mom's recipe... I regret NOTHING!Impeccable juices. Cheerful and attentive service. My heart goes out to the owners for not being allowed to..." Read more
