The Mussel House

I had an amazing experience at Mussel House. The mussels were super fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. You can really taste the quality. The service was friendly and the atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming. Definitely a 5-star spot if you love seafood — I’ll be back for sure.

We went for a spontaneous lunch and had no reservation. Fresh fish just arrived and was shown in a cooled wagon. Our server did a great job on presenting each fish to us. Since we were 3 adults, we went for a 2kg fish, which they suggested to prepare in 2 courses. First as a delicious carpaccio paired with passion fruit, lemon, olive oil and salt. And second grilled and filleted in front of us. It was a feast - thank you to the entire team for this culinary highlight! Quite apart from the fact that the location is also quite amazing

What a gem! This gorgeous restaurant right by the water with the freshest seafood and of course mussels and oysters. We had a wonderful birthday celebration and our server, Julio, (or Julius? Sorry I can’t remember how to spell it), was so kind and personable. He went above and beyond to make our evening special. Our poor birthday girl had dropped her phone in the sea earlier that day, and he offered to take it to get it looked at by someone. The food was delicious and the atmosphere with the view incredible. Thank you for a memorable evening.

Had a really nice time at Mussel House! The food was fresh and well prepared. The location is also great, with a relaxed atmosphere and nice views. Big thanks to Freddy, our waiter, who was friendly, helpful and made sure everything went smoothly. And just to clarify, Freddy definitely didn't tell us to write this review... ...except he kind of did. So here it is 😄 Would recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

Driving towards Ksamil, we stopped here only because I saw the roadside sign and liked the name. It turned out an excellent choice for two seafood lovers. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch on the terrace. The food was lovely, the service courteous, and as a bonus, we had a view across the lake with the mussel farm. We also love cats so had plenty of feline company. If you don't, request a table inside.

If you're looking for a stunning dining experience, look no further. This place is tucked away at the bottom of a mountain, right on a beautiful lagoon. The atmosphere is ideal—ducks are swimming, a pony is walking around, and the view is excellent. The food is just as amazing. The mussels were cooked perfectly, and the catch of the day was incredibly fresh and delicious. It was all so good. A special shout-out to our waiter, Freddy (hope spelled his name correctly). He was so considerate and went above and beyond to make our evening even better. His attentive and genuine care was the perfect topping on an already incredible night.

Amazing lunch at the Mussel House, on the terrace with a stunning view on the lake, surrounded by ducks, geese and a horse! The mussels with cream was a real success as well as the seafood linguini. Shout out to the waiter who was perfect! Hope to see you soon!

A modern, clean restaurant located on the shores of the lake where mussels are farmed. It specializes in seafood — and of course, in mussels that are brought directly from the cultivation lake. Locals say these are some of the best mussels you can find. We had a plate of mussels in white wine and garlic — tasty, though I didn’t notice a significant difference from mussels I’ve had elsewhere. They were also rather small. The seafood pasta was delicious, and the cold octopus salad was good, though the octopus was a bit chewy. Prices are on the higher side for Albania, but that’s to be expected when it comes to quality seafood. Overall, a good experience.
