I LOVE mussels. …so much that, when I prayed to the porcelain god all night after a delicious Gulf Coast restaurant meal, I would have ordered the same thing for dinner the following day.The meat of mussels at Mannequin Pis is somewhat undersize, but Olney isn’t on any coast. Quantity, of mussels and preparation choices, more than makes up for smallness. I shared some of my order and was still stuffed.The salsify was the most amazing side I’ve tasted in the past year. Going to find some on a roadside and try my hand at cooking it myself. The complimentary bread that’s served doesn’t set one up for a 5-star meal. A better recipe should be used, but I usually eschew empty calories; ditto for the fries.Nothing pretentious about our waiter, although he brought us iced tea instead of the Diet Coke we ordered. My shells threatened to overflow the waste container toward the end, but why should I care if they did…I’m going back for another variety.

Marble-sized Mussels. I have been visiting this restaurant since they opened, and have never liked it. In the past my friends were told how dare they show up to eat without a reservation. I heard the old pompous Belgian owner had left. Maybe, it’s time to return.No. Rightly or wrongly the tremendous history of Belgian cuisine will be judged by moules and frites. While the various sauces are flavorful, the mussels (meat) at Mannequin Pis are at best the size of marbles and 1/4 of them have no meat at all (where did it go, not in the broth). I’ve never found this in any restaurant in Belgium or even France. Now to the frites, the standard are acceptable but not great and the garlic are soggy and greasy.The beer and wine are overpriced (incorrectly blamed on the county) however don’t order wine it will come to you at 90 degrees.PS. A little AC would be helpful.
