I had an amazing time at this restaurant. The food was tasty and just like homecooked meal you'd have with your loved ones. I definitely recommend this place to friends and family 🥰

I have been going to Karina's for many years and their food is delicious. The only problem I have is them being stingy when I ask for a little more rice. I spend $35 plus at every visit there. Otherwise, they are one of the top Spanish eating restaurants in Jersey City.
