Our Story

Founding Family

A Family Tradition Since 1981

Karina's Seafood was founded by Don Arnulfo Contreras and his wife, María Inés Curiel. They opened their first location in Spring Valley, naming it in honor of their daughter, Karina.

What started as a small family endeavor has grown into one of San Diego's most beloved restaurant groups, bringing authentic Sinaloan-style seafood to the community for over 40 years.
