About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions

Dine on fresh sustainably-sourced seafood, wild game meats and more at Big Fish & Open Range, located in Calgary. Its casual setting and inviting atmosphere is ideal for grabbing a bite to eat with friends or family.

Big Fish offers food such as a seafood chowder, smoked oyster sliders or chili-glazed frog legs that make for flavorful appetizers. Guests can feast on an entrée of pan-roasted walleye with wilted spinach, fish tacos topped with tomato-mango salsa or a lamb and lobster burger. An oyster bar as well as delicious house-made desserts are also available.

Open Range embodies the essence of our city; cutting edge, but comfortable and unpretentious.

    My friend and I were very disappointed with this restaurant and added it to our “do not return to this place” list. My friend ordered the steak and lobster, steak to be medium rare. We saw her plate sitting and waiting to be served for several minutes before it was finally brought to our table by which point the steak was over-cooked and the lobster was chewy. I had the cod - the fish itself was excellent but the rice that accompanied it was mushy and the asparagus was a disgrace: the sort of old, tired asparagus you would never buy in a grocery store and which should never have been served by any restaurant. The waiter was very friendly but service was slow - as noted my friend’s plate sat out for quite a while. All in all, very disappointing and way over-priced for what we were served.

    Three seniors dined here for the first time. We ordered 2 glasses of wine & 3 mains. Selected our dishes from the Big Fish menu. My Manitoba Walleye was a mild whitefish, but flavour was overpowered by the black pepper sprinkled on top. The 2 menus are in heavy cases, which are difficult to manage at a small table and are overwhelming with info. Suggest combining them to a lightweight single menu which would be easier to navigate. Parking was challenging - small rear lot was full when we arrived @ 5:40. Had to park 2 blocks away, due to permit parking rules on the nearby street. Uncertain if we will return.
