Then, allow the friendly staff to bring as many items from the menu as you can handle. Come with a group so you can share. An absolute must is the whole fish done à la Contramar, one side of the split fish coated in a punchy parsley sauce and the other in a red adobo rub. Served with flour tortillas (which are refillable) and black bean dip, you'll be instructed how to compose perfect bites. Then, choose your own adventure! We also had both the 4 piece each shrimp tostadas and tuna tostadas. Radically different so getting both doesn't duplicate. The pasta (spaghettini) with clams was buttery and garlicky and the pasta was surprisingly not overcooked. Biggest surprise was the grilled soft shell crabs (with corn tortillas). They came pre cut then reassembled so it was easy to pick them up and pop them in your mouth. The grill flavor was fantastic and we were all impressed. We finished with a slice of coconut cake which was like a caramel coated macaroon. Perfect! Large wine list by the glass and bottle, many cocktails, sangria and beer to choose from. Definitely a place to visit when in Mexico City. Sorry for the lack of photos-- we forgot because we dove into each dish (we were hungry and they looked so good)! Got one good one though...

We also ordered the smaller contrarmar size for 2 people because we wanted to try a bunch of other things from the menu! I can't imagine if we bought the bigger size.. it's still a lot of fish! Highly recommend that! Service was super attentive and helpful.

Contramar is believed by many to be a "must have" restaurant in Mexico City. I'm so glad that…read moretheir sister restaurant, Entremar, has an identical menu, easier to attain reservations, and it was located near to me in Polanco. Being from California, I was surprised to hear that they opened their newest location at the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas last month. We ordered the tuna tostada that people rave about. It was ok. We could have used some more assertive flavor from acid or spice. I couldn't eat a whole fish (their signature dish), so we went with shrimp in their adobo rub in a taco and fish al pastor. These were also just ok, but the price tags are high for their entrees. I've seen pictures of others fish al pastor with onions and cilantro and that certainly would have added something I felt was missing. The one thing we ordered and loved was their seasonal mackerel ceviche which was in an apple/citrus/olive oil sauce. It was unique and delicious. I think their ceviche and aguachile are probably their strengths, but the cost is pretty high to leave feeling underwhelmed. Honestly, we will be going back to mi compa chava for better seafood

We stopped by here for relatively late dinner at 9pm on a Saturday night. We were staying at a…read morenearby hotel and this restaurant was only a couple blocks away. We had the small octopus cocktail, grilled vegetables, spicy fish tacos, and soft shell crab tacos - that was plenty of food for the two of us. We were the only Americans there, but it was pretty obvious that we weren't locals so they gave us the English menus and our waiter spoke excellent English. The grilled vegetables consisted of marinated portobello mushrooms, green beans, and a carrot. The mushrooms were quite tasty. The octopus cocktail was very refreshing and the spicy fish tacos were pretty good too. We finished the meal with a corn bread dessert (much sweeter than American cornbread) and flan. Both were very good.

Cozy with great service, we enjoyed a nice shrimp broth aperitif (caldo de camarón), ahí tuna tostadas worth caramelized onions and crispy leeks, and grilled octopus. With two glasses of wine, each person paid $25usd including tip (roughly). They also bring you a table-side display of the catch of the day and everything seemed fresh and amazing, with delicious sounding ways to cook them (branzino, or lemon caper sauce, etc.)

This was my first restaurant experience in Mexico City and it did not disappoint. It's not a huge…read morerestaurant but it's clean, bright, and modern. Service and food were on point. We were served blue corn tostadas with a few different sauces - all of which were tasty, especially the spicy creamy green one. We then ordered appetizers to share. All were tasty but hands down my favorite item was the pulpito. The octopus was so tender and went perfect with the little potatoes. I also really liked the rib eye tacos which came with the best red spicy sauce and the tiradito which is a campachi Crudo. From the cebiche tasting platter (no photo), I liked the atun the most. Of course we ordered desserts as well. I actually cannot remember the names but will comment on them with the attached photos. One I' didn't get a photo of was a chocolate dessert. It was very good but rich. If you're in the neighborhood I suggest trying this spot out.

Half of the table orders were taken but not the other half. We had to keep calling the wait staff back. We received our food at different times. Someone received burnt rice as well. The manager did come over and apologize in addition to offering us a comp dessert. I did not enjoy the tres leches, it was way too sweet but the other desserts were good.
