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.

    Excellent food. Would’ve liked to have been in dining room instead of the back area. Maybe some more ambience in there? Great server. Will be back

    We went here as a family of 6 for an 86th birthday. It was our first time and we were pleasantly surprised. Great menu with lots of options, warm inviting room and we were greeted right away. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was refreshingly great. Overall, great food and great service. We'll be back again.

    Nice restaurant with quite an extensive menu. Appreciated bringing in our own wine for a reasonable corkage fee. The decor and atmosphere is very nice. We ordered a seafood platter as an appetizer and I would call it marginal. The rest of our entrées were lovely. .
