Contramar

Choice lunch venue serving toothsome seafood

Beneath Contramar’s high, woven ceiling speckled with hanging wicker, some of Mexico City’s finest, freshest seafood fare can be found. Reams of natural light brighten this cavernous space, illuminating the city’s beautiful ones who have made it the prime lunchtime spot to see and be seen since opening in 1998. Consistently listed as one of the best, their raw tuna tostadas have spawned countless imitators across the town.
