Contramar is a seafood restaurant in Roma Norte, Mexico City, Mexico, near Fuente de Cibeles. It is owned by the restaurateur Gabriela Cámara, who opened it in 1998 on Durango Avenue. Her aim was to recreate the experience of dining at a beachside palapa. The establishment serves à la carte dishes and has received critical acclaim particularly for its tuna tostada. Its signature red-and-green pescado a la talla (pictured) has been widely imitated by other restaurants worldwide. Contramar has attracted celebrities and international diners, received multiple culinary distinctions, and was the subject of the 2019 Netflix documentary. In 2025, the restaurant received a Bib Gourmand recommendation in the first Michelin Guide covering restaurants in Mexico. (more...) |
