Dine on fresh sustainably-sourced seafood, wild game meats and more. Our 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. Open Range mixes modern with tradition, serving every cut you would expect but preparing them with interesting variations of flavours. We offer locally raised beef, elk, bison and game prepared in an easy going Southwestern style. We are one of Calgary's premier steakhouses with multiple awards and accolades.

As I was not to hungry, I chose the pears and beets salad and it was delicious. Though I did taste my husband’s walleye and love it. The waiter was so pleasant!

This was our first time here and the service and food was amazing. We forgot our readers and our server found us a pair to borrow. She was attentive and helpful with the wine list and menu. It was a little cold by the window but bearable. The calamari had a nice, light batter and not greasy. We loved that they have a handy underground parkade as well. We will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our dinner here. We had never been, but were wanting to. The food was fantastic, I’m still carrying on about the Caesar salad, which was phenomenal. We will be back with others in the near future. *The service was great as well.

They didn't have our reservation set up but the hostess got things organized quickly so we didn't wait long. Server was excellent and had good recommendations for wine with the meals. The only issue with the food was that the ribeye wasn't up to the Quality you'd usually see for an $80 steak.
Big Fish & Open Range - Marda LoopResponded on 29 November 2024
Hi Michael, Thanks for the review! We are glad that the service was excellent with good recommendations. We do apologize that the ribeye was not up to the quality and standards that we are known for. Please know that we have audited our cuts of meats and have completed training with our entire team to ensure that any issues are rectified. We hope to serve you again. - Big Fish & Open Range Team

Was with a small group to celebrate a birthday. We were thoughtfully seated in a private alcove where we wer e able to be boisterous without disturbing other patrons. The pot-au-feu is a great dish, hearty and tasty. The meats were cooked to our taste. Service was personalized. A good evening out if needing a seafood fix. Kudos
