Freshly frozen these half shell black mussels retain much of their original character and are fantastic value for money as well as convenient. Greenfish continues to impress a very fussy & particular customer.

filleted to perfection
Good evening Ryan I was very pleased with your service and presentation. The yellow tail was very good.... filleted to perfection. I have not used the mussels yet but have no doubt that I will not be disappointed. This is all for our week leading up to Easter. Just ordered early. Thanks H

Terrific quality
The second time I have ordered from Greenfish and these mussels were absolutely fantastic. Did them in a garlic white wine broth and they came out amazingly. These are as good as fresh mussels. Very impressed.
