Everything was great with this recipe. I kept the leftover sauce and plan on making a soup out of it.

I'm giving this 5 stars based on that it was actually super easy to make (it was my first time making mussels!), and my husband liked it! I don't eat seafood, so I couldn't tell ya. But it sure smelled amazing! Based on other reviewers, I doubled the garlic, and did NOT add cream as I wanted to keep things a bit healthier. I also made sure to have bread for dipping in the sauce (and that's exactly what hubby did!) Very easy, little work, with glamourous results. I'd serve this at a dinner party and wow guests for sure. I served this as an appetizer for the Lemon Garlic Tilapia on this site, and a salad.

Recipes was quite tasty, however to get that restaurant style taste, I almost tripled the garlic. The next tie I will add more of almost all the seasonings and the butter. Also, be sure to use a dry white wine such as sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio. I used a reisling because that's all I had and it was too sweet. The wine you use will make or break it. Otherwise, simple, fast and great.

I made this as an appetizer. Also took everyones advice and added about 2 shots of heavy cream. This was delishhhhhh!!!!!!! I prepared everything except the mussels before hand and when I was ready to serve, I warmed up the sauce and then added the mussels. They only took a few minutes to pop open and I was sure to take them out as they opened so I didnt over cook. Thanks for the recipe! Awesome.

Reminded me of the mussels I had in Dingle, Ireland. Very good! I did leave out the green stuff because I didn't want to overpower the mussels but I might try them next time. We ate these with simple linguine with parm cheese on the side and then stuffed baby bellas with Maryland Crab cakes and baked. Crusty bread dipped in olive oil......perfect and fun meal!

This recipe was great. I loved it. I added some diced tomatoes from a can instead of the fresh romas (about one standard size can). It was fantastic. My husband is already asking for it again. Super yummy with crispy fresh french bread. Thanks for the recipe.

My husband tried it the first time and it was horrible. I tried the next day, with a better wine, and it was pretty good, but nothing I’d rate as absolutely delicious. I’ll try one more time with a different wine.

Oh my. Perfect broth recipe for mussels. I replaced the wine with chicken broth and added a dash of EVOO to the butter as well as adding a pinch of sea salt when putting the mussels into the broth as well as just before serving. This is INCREDIBLE. Hubby loved it and he is the cook in the family. 5*s.

Very good! The only mussels recipe I use. The only thing I didn't have was the bay leaf! I think the thyme was the key ingredient!

I'll give it four just because I think a five star is your own version of the recipe. I see many of you add cream to de recipe, and even though is a possibility, PLEASE DON'T. I love cream, don't get me wrong, I can send you my recent blood work and you'll see the addiction to butter and cream for yourself, the cholesterol says it all. INSTEAD, just add some toasted bread crumbs or mix some butter with flour. You can do have this butter/flour mix ready, just add it to the sauce, right at the end, and you'll see the results. Enjoy !!!
