Restaurant Ready® represents a family of shellfish brands that are grown in remote locations and brought to market following a stringent post harvest quality control process developed by American Mussel Harvesters, Inc. A Restaurant Ready® Big One Mussel is a bottom cultured product fished from the cool waters of New England. Post harvest, the mussels are shipped to our facility located on Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island where the Restaurant Ready® process begins. Big Ones mussels average at about 3" and are available year round, weather permitting.
