    This is the kind of seafood restaurant that has been missing from my life! Creative, abundantly flavorful, and unique. The birria fish taco is honestly insane. I've never had anything with it in my life. The chili crisp type oil that comes with it is smoky and unreal. The shrimp taco was also incredible. We tried to aguachiles the Nero and the verde. The Nero was unlike anything I've ever had and very interesting. I liked it but the verde was unbeatable imho. The service was fast and friendly. It's fun to watch all the different kitchen stations work together. My husband and I both speak only a little Spanish but we made it through and our server recommend some killer dishes. Also the ambiance is super fun and a great vibe. Highly recommend.

    I really wanted to love this place given that we stood in line for well over an hour at 2:30 pm on a Tuesday. However, we were really disappointed. The service was good but sloooow (perhaps given how busy they were) but the food itself was kinda okay... we didn't love the aguachile or the tuna tostadas. The shrimp taco (taco costra de Cameron) was really good though! Overall, okay food but certainly not worth the 1 hour wait. Entremar is probably a better bet if you haven't made a reservation at contramar!

    Delish !

    Grilled shrimp and Tuna Tostada are the best. Totally worth the wait, love this place !!!!

    Nicely priced, fresh and delicious seafood. We were brought in by the pics on google and we were not disappointed. Definitely felt like a place for locals.

    So good

    Very busy restaurant. Again go earlier in the day as they are so busy they run out of items on the menu. Food was fresh and quick.

    Not only do they have great Mexican style seafood, the atmosphere is one of a kind! This place a is…read moreconverted privet home apartment building. They knocked down walls to adjoin all apartments on each floor, gutted them out, and placed dinning areas throughout. So you walk in and they tell you to go to the 2nd or 3rd floor and pick a table. That table can be in the past living room or past kitchen of an apartment. So cool! The whole ground floor is the kitchen and prep area. The front entrance is thru a open door between two taco stands, the door leads you into the past patio/common area of the apartments. There is no signs in the entrance, just flag an employee down in the patio area and they'll direct you to an open floor. All seafood dishes come with their famous paella, which is one of the best I've tasted. I had the best Octopus cocktail of my live here. The octopus was chunky and tender! I will visit this place every time I come to Mexico City!! They speak English and accept credit cards.

    During my 4 day stay in CDMX, I've been here twice. Such a neighborhood gem. I once saw local cops…read moretake togo when I passed by so I was curious. I got some braised pork dish for $70 peso. It was delish too. The pork dish tasted somewhat like kimchi soup with pork in it. (It was in a pot on the front row, second one from the left) On the way out, I saw paella and that looked amazing so had to be back to try next day.. It was not bad for $200ish pesos. It is nothing fancy but I loved it. If you are adventurous and want to try what locals eat, this is the place.
