We LOVED Ginger Tulum!!!

Just… WOW. We booked Ginger Tulum for our wedding on February 17th and to say it was a great decision would be an understatement. Ginger Tulum was absolutely incredible! We opted for the Mexican BBQ served family style, which was so AMAZING and so much fun! It got everyone involved with each other at the table and helped us really fellowship over food. They supplied everything we needed—beautiful plates, silverware, etc. And the food itself—truly phenomenal to say the least. We had more than a few people come up to us to tell us this was the best food they have had at a wedding, and we 1000% agreed. It was actually some of the best food we’ve ever eaten in Mexico. All the meats and veggies were cooked to perfection, highly recommend the steak!! The salsas were fantastic, the ceviche as well, the guacamole…whewww. Literally every item was incredible. There was also more than enough food and everyone felt full and happy. In addition to dinner, we also got canapés for cocktail hour (SOOO good) and the bartending service (if you’re doing cocktails—highly recommend their passionfruit mojito! But everything they made was fantastic.) They even provided a bar upon request. The service for all of this was absolutely incredible.. I don’t think anyone had to even wave anyone down for anything, as they were so very attentive. I could go on and on about our experience, but just take it from us—Ginger Tulum was one of the best choices we made for our wedding, no doubt. You won’t regret booking them! Thank you all so much!!!

The best food I've had in wedding

We had the best food we've had in weddings in our own wedding! Morgan provided catering for our destination wedding in Tulum last friday.
Our planner told us many time that Ginger is the BEST catering in Riviera Maya area but we were still impressed by how good the food was. The food was in large protions and tasted fantastic just like fine dinning restaruants. Not only the food tasted so well, the plating was so well done to the highest standard.
The bartender service and waiter service were both the best you can imagine too.
I highly recommand Ginger to anyone who's having weddings in Riviera Maya area!

A familiar friend…

Ginger Catering was very attentive to our desires and needs. Their food selection was really varied and allowed us to customize a menu that worked for all of our different dietary restrictions while also giving our guess in authentic Mexican delicious meal. When we went to Mexico to do our tasting, Javier and Morgan invited us into their own home, which felt so welcoming and wonderful and comfortable. They felt like familiar friends and everyone at our wedding could not stop talking about how delicious the food was. Their entire staff was super kind and professional on site and we wish we could give each one of them a big bear hug if we could highly highly highly recommend.
