Contramar

This place was incredible not only because of the impeccable food, but because of the incredible service and beautiful dance of the wait staff to meet your every need. They were incredibly attentive without being pushy and the food was absolutely incredible. My only regret was that we didn’t come more hungry because I wish we could’ve eaten more. However they were able to pack everything up for us and we took it home. It was an incredible experience and would absolutely recommend.

Amazing experience! The staff is super friendly, the service is incredible, and the food is absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this place if you’re in Mexico City. One of the best culinary experiences I’ve had. You have to get the Octopus Tostadas and the fig tart for dessert, it’s to die for.

By far, one of the best meals that I’ve had in CDMX! All the food was phenomenal and the prices were perfect. I’d highly recommend getting the whole fish because it really does fill you up. The fish ceviche was super tasty and paired perfectly with the rest of the dishes! Can’t wait to come back because I’m already missing the food.

Am I in Paris, Barcelona, Madrid, Milan? This can’t be Mexico City. Contramar attracts the chic and the beautiful with their glasses perched on their head, sweaters draped on shoulders, and knowing hands touching the right shoulders to get the correct table. I tried to match their cool, but come on, I’m a goof. The scene could keep me occupied for hours. This ain’t your father’s Mexico. Staff know their stuff and the extensive menu. We were treated well, Mexico respecting older people in a way that out classes the United States. Everything tasted good, but was not earth shattering. However, I would pay hundreds for that ooh la la scene. It was that entertaining, and as I mentioned, you will find something you like on that gigantic menu. Our Sunday lunch came to $150 American dollars with two glasses of wine. La Dolce Vita in CDMX!

A very hyped up place with impossible to get reservations but a very much deserving of a hype!

Everything was delicious but I especially recommend tuna tostadas and soft shell crab tacos which come with tortillas that, for some reason, resemble Indian parathas ????????u200d♂️They do work quite well with the stuffing.

Bonus points for a delicious fig tart.

I'm glad tried this awesome restaurant! Their seafood is so fresh. The servers are engaging and know their stuff and converse really well. Looking forward to the next time I am in Mexico City.

A great seafood restaurant in the heart of Mexico City! Service was lovely, helpful and quick, and the food and drinks were all incredible. I’d highly recommend the grilled whole fish dish - their signature - as well as the tuna and avocado tostada and the fried shrimp tacos.

One strange thing was that ordering stops at 8pm - rather unusually for Mexico City - so make sure to get through the menu quickly if you’re here for dinner. Drinks keep coming till closing, however, and so do the good times. The atmosphere was buzzy and completely unpretentious, and the large plates are all meant for sharing with friends and family. I would absolutely recommend!
