Muqueca Brazilian Restaurant, located in Cambridge, MA, offers an authentic taste of Brazil with a focus on traditional dishes, particularly the famed moquecas Capixabas - spicy fish and seafood stews served in rustic, hand-crafted clay pots. The menu boasts a variety of options including prime cuts of meat, grilled chicken, the national dish feijoada, and a selection of seafood dishes, all prepared with fresh ingredients and bold flavors.

Owned by Maria-Gloria Sarcinelli, the restaurant captures the spirit of coastal Brazil while providing a cozy atmosphere reminiscent of a seaside resort. Guests can indulge in a culinary experience that highlights the unique flavors of the southeastern state of Espirito Santo, enhanced by imported cooking vessels that significantly enrich the dining experience.
