I am beyond grateful and delighted with how Cantina Contramar has been welcomed at the Fountainbleau in Las Vegas.
We are building a fantastic team here that brings care, energy, and a real sense of purpose to the table every day. I want to especially thank our local patrons from Las Vegas and everyone who has come from different corners of the world to dine with us. Your support is invaluable and most appreciated. We are all delighted to be working hard to make this place better every day, and love being part of the extraordinary community in the hospitality industry of this City. ✨

If you’ve ever been to Contramar in Mexico City, you’re probably dreaming about getting back. Turns out, you now have another option.
Cantina Contramar has just opened at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas, a collaboration between celebrated chef Gabriela Cámara and visionary architect Frida Escobedo.
Stop by for a Casa Dragones margarita or paloma, and enjoy the restaurant’s iconic red-and-green ‘Pescado al la Talla Contramar’, its legendary tuna tostadas and its warm Mexican hospitality.
Cantina Contramar opened at Fontainebleau with a night highlighting its refined flavors, signature creations, and distinct Mexican soul - presented by @americanexpress and @resy .

The highly anticipated restaurant officially opens on Saturday, and this powerhouse trio is in town to celebrate the space, their partnership, and the team that brought the project to life.
The original @contramarmx , opened by Gabriela in Mexico City 27 years ago, is one of the country’s most revered and popular restaurants. Cantina Contramar will feature several Contramar classics on the menu, including red and green Pescado a la Talla and the iconic Atún Tostadas with fried leeks and avocado.
Cantina Contramar was designed by Frida, the award-winning architect who is also working on a new wing of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the renovation of Centre Pompidou in Paris.
Bertha is the first female maestra tequilera and co-founder of Tequila @casadragones , which has long been featured on the menus of Gabriela’s restaurants.
Congratulations to Gabriela, Frida, and Bertha! Check our Stories this weekend for photos from the opening party, and stay tuned for our Substack story on the restaurant and how it’s a tribute to both Mexican culture and women in hospitality. 📸 @melaniedunea
