Contramar - Mexico City

As a celiac I appreciated how the staff took my allergy seriously. Not all employees understood, but several. I didn't get sick and had the famous Contramar grilled fish with both sauces. They gave me separate tortillas for salsa. I also had beans and keviche!

The staff is not about gluten, and they are not willing to make special dishes or protect from CC, but I have been able to eat their shrimp cocktail, I ask for the preparation to wash the hands first and for a simple cocktail with just onion cilantro tomatoes and avocado, and their side of beans and their tortillas (confirm they are 100% corn and no measca). I was once sick of her speciality, which is a baked full fish with sauces on it. Since then, I do not trust their recommendations, but take the small risk of these very simple dishes. And love the tortillas!

Staff was knowledgeable, but super rude. My whole family was unimpressed. They brought me tostadas for my ceviche but couldn’t be bothered to answer any questions about how the tostadas were prepared. I did eat them, and I did not get sick, but it was unsettling. Wouldn’t return.
