The Mussel Pot

I was in the mood for a burger and I figured Bleecker street has plenty of bars and burger joints. Then I remembered reading that The Mussel Pot was starting lunch so maybe they have a burger on the menu. I went there for dinner a few weeks ago and had a great meal so I figured it should be good. Oh was I happy I went there instead of 5 guys or one of the many regular bars. This burger was a masterpiece. ""Ground rib-eye & NY strip topped w/truffled spottocenere cheese pancetta crisp, tomato confit & pickled red onion"". WOW. And the hand cut fries were great also. I want to go back and try the grilled cheese next time. more

If you asked me a month ago to go to a mussel & seafood place I would have said your crazy. Last week my friend invited me to dinner and she wouldn't tell me where we were going. She just told me its a new place she read about and it has been getting great reviews. Ok how bad can it be? When we arrived I saw the name on top of the awning I was very hesitant. The look of the place was so nice however that against my better judgement I decided to go with it and not complain. Im so glad my inner brat didn't get the best if me. The host took us to our table and I was stunned on how beautiful the back patio was. The server came over and took our drink orders. We just got the house wine which we were told was very good and boy was it. For a wine by the glass this was the best Ive tasted. My friend convinced me to order a mussel dish even though there were plenty of non mussel dishes on the menu. So we had the Indian one and the New Yorker. WOW so this is what mussels taste like. OK I'm hooked. Silly me grew up in a house where mom made me dislike seafood. NOT anymore. I am a mussel lover now and will be back to try the other dishes soon. more

I sat in the garden patio when I got tot this rstaurant. The sever told me it was the first day they had opened the patio since the weather was finally so nice. The water wall is breath taking and the pond has a group of fish gently swimming around. The place itself is stunning. I ordered the lobster mac n cheese which was the best I ever ate (and I have had it everywhere). I had the Texas mussels with BBQ pulled pork and wow was it good. The portions are very generous and I had to take a to go container home. This restaurant is wonderful and I would recommend it to any who wants a great meal in a beautiful place with out paying a lot of money. more

I checked out The Mussel Pot this past Friday w some of my GF's..The place is beautiful..First thing I noticed was the warm atmosphere created by the amber lighting. We sat @ the circular marble bar in the front. There were 3 of us and the place was packed so we didnt mind..The bartender was really sweet and friendly. We ordered some of the cocktails..the Almond Joy and the Tiramisu..Yummy chocolate heaven. They had oysters so we ordered a bunch..very fresh..It was later in the night around 10pm so we just ordered apps..didnt want anything heavy so we ordered the tuna tartare..it was so delicate and smooth w the avacado under it..mmmm..also got the fried osyters..they were yummy too..I love the vibe in this place and am planning to come back and eat a full meal soon. more

I went there last week and loved this place. The food is really good and the wine selection is huge. The back garden is very nice. They are supposed to start brunch soon. I will be sitting outside listening to the waterfall and looking at the fish in the pond when that happens. This place is a great neighborhood spot and a great date place also. more

The Mussel Pot. Me and my girls were invited to the opening party last week and im sooooo glad we went. Food was delicious and it came out in these beautiful shiny pots. The drinks were refreshing and the restaurant was crowded. What a good time. Will be back next week. more

Went there last night. The decor of this place is stunning. The colors, mirrors and artwork are perfect. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very comfortable and very relaxing. The back yard has a beautiful waterfall and fish pond. The menu was very impressive and me and my husband had the mac n cheese and the blue point oysters to start. Both were amazing. For our main dishes we tried the new orleans mussels with fried okra and the new yorker with buffalo sauce and blue cheese. Both dishes were delicious. The servers were very nice and attentive. The meal wasn't as expensive as I thought it would be. The wine selection was great also. Over all it was a wonderful experience. more
