The same great, beloved menu options
“We are providing the same great, beloved menu options, like our Ceviche Karina’s and fresh grilled langostinos, as well as surf ‘n’ turf tacos and burritos, aguachile and campechanas,” said David Contreras Curiel, Owner of Karina’s Group. “We know what our patrons love from our previous locations, which is why we are very excited to be expanding our foothold into the heart of one of the most vibrant cities in the entire world.”

An entire venue inspired by Mexican art and culture
The stunning new space features a tasteful mix of design-forward features combined with unexpected art pieces and elements inspired by Mexican culture to create an otherworldly setting for patrons to gather for a delicious meal and cocktails. Live music and DJs perform regularly from a perch on the second-floor mezzanine that overlooks the main dining room and bar area. Due to the multi-level layout, the restaurant is able to offer several private dining and group spaces.
“The entire venue was inspired by Mexican art and culture. For the design, I incorporated elements of surrealism, symbolism, and nature found in the works of the great Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo,” said Contreras. “The custom art and murals were created to immerse our patrons in the world of true and authentic Mexican culture with a modern and eclectic twist.”
