Awesome food and great service! Would recommend big fish to anybody that love sea food and need a sea food fix. Great atmosphere and friendly staff!
Best scallops I’ve ever had and this is not up for debate. Surprised at the low rating, doesn’t fit the great service and food I experienced.
Been here several times, most of the times was a good experience. It is a quite expensive but thats what you expect from the quality food! Options like bookings are a life saver would recommend a booking on days like new years, as it was fairly full last time i dined!
Beautiful place to dine, bought a groupon for two buckets of prawns and a bottle of wine! Great value and great service! We will be back next time we come to NSW!
I can’t fault anything with the freshness of the seafood at Blue Fish. A friend and I ordered the Sashimi and Tiger Prawns for Entree, and Calamari for Main.
The Sashimi was the best I’ve had for a while, melt in your mouth freshness and sliced perfectly. The Prawns were so flavourful and tender, served with their awesome Seafood Sauce (unsure if house made - if commercial I want to know what brand it is).
Our Calamari was good, 5 pieces served with chips and tartare. They weren’t overcooked or rubbery which was a welcome change.
We opted for dessert as well, being an Affogato and Berry Eton Mess. No complaints here either.
Points lost for price vs. portion size. I can hear you all mumbling ‘but what did you expect on the harbour?’ - I’m well aware this is a contributing factor but a slightly larger portion for each dish (except the desserts) would have given them a higher rating from me.
Nice lunch, staff were accommodating and happy for us to sit there for a few hours ordering different things. Bit of a miscommunication on one of the meals, but not a big problem.
Giant Seafood Platter
All fried food taste good here as the skin is thin and much crispy than that in other restaurants. Prawns are the best in this platter, no matter it is fresh or fried. I am a bit disappointed with their fresh oysters and mussels. Too much small shells on the oysters' surface and the mussels are too small to eat.
However, overall is fine and everyone can have a try if you guys have special occasion with your friends or families:)
You have to try the chowder in a sourdough loaf! Delish! We also tried the grilled platter for two, that included prawns, salmon baramundi, crab, scallops and calamari, a generous serving for two. Nice location on the harbour and helpful staff and management made the whole experience pleasant.

Great lunch out at Blue Fish at Darling Harbour. We visited on a public holiday and were instantly advised of holiday surcharges which we did not mind at all.
We were asked to pick our seats as it was still early and were attended to almost immediately. We decided on the Fisherman's Basket and the Chicken BLT with table water.
The Fisherman's Basket was a variety of seafood (squid, calamari, prawns and fish) seasoned and deep fried. It was served with chips and aioli sauce. The calamari is always a highlight of this dish having the perfect crunch and for not being too stringy. The aioli went well with the seafood choice.
The Chicken BLT was a burger with lettuce and tomato. Reading the menu we were thinking it as more of a wrap but when it came out I definitely was not disappointed. One change that could be made to this meal, if anything, is the option to swap the tomato sauce out to an aioli dip. This was still a great option on the menu and an absolutely delicious meal.
I highly recommend Blue Fish for a simple lunch out on Darling Harbour. We will be back again soon to try more!
this place is awesome! Im from inland Australia so anything by the water is epic for me and ive never had such fresh seafood like this before. The share platter is nothing like ive ever seen or had before where Im from and the view of the harbour while sipping on a glass of wine is something you cant imagine where Im from. Great service and definitely a must if youre visiting the area!
Yummy breakfast, smashed avocado with poached eggs was a great combination for something new and lite while on my trip in Sydney. The coffee was fantastic also 👍
It was pretty hectic when we went, on a Easter Friday brunch. Still the food delivered was nicely done, most of the staff were quite nice, some more visible stressed than others and/or less patient. It was a hectic day though. Great weather for it, and decent harbour views. Nothing too special, but still a decent place to venture.
Nice cafe. We came for breakfast after watching the dragon boat racing at Darling harbour. For sure we paid tourist prices. But the breakfast was good and we found shelter from a torrential rain. Service was quick and friendly, ambience was very nice.

We dined at 1:00 on a Saturday afternoon. It was busy, it there were tables available. We were seen immediately and seated straight away, sitting at the front, with a wonderful view of the harbour.
The menus arrived immediately, closely followed by water and glasses.
The beverage list was extensive. The menu was spread Uber a number of pages and was well illustrated. There’s more in offer than fish and chips - e.g. pasta and wings. The platters looked unbelievable! Bring friends.
My beautiful wife ordered the fish of the day and I had a seafood basket.
Our drinks came quickly and the food was at our table in shirt order. It was hit and unbelievably delicious. Everything was fresh and tasty. The calamari and octopus weren’t rubbery and the fish feel apart. The chips were a great accompaniment.
The staff were very polite and helpful and were more than happy to provide a takeaway box.
The atmosphere was pleasant and relaxed and there was a heated area.
The was a wonderful experience.
Edit: we went back for the platter. It took our appreciation of this place to new heights. The food was served faster than I thought. It was again fresh and unbelievably tasty. Three of us managed most of the platter, leaving only the chips. It was worth the wait - believe the hype.
Delicious Food. Exceptional Service
Even though the place was so full, the people who served us remained courteous and friendly throughout
The giant seafood platter is a must. Beautiful outlook in one of the most iconic spots in Sydney - Darling Harbour. Have been coming here for years to enjoy this platter has changed since last time more chips slightly diff mix from what we remember but all in all is a great mix of hot and cold seafood.
Really delicious food and friendly staff. Excellent menu variety and cocktail selection. 110% would recommend this place!
