A Closer Look at the Gourmet Fajitas Private Dinner Experience in Cabo

If you’re considering a special evening in Cabo or San Jose del Cabo that skips the usual restaurant scene, this private gourmet fajitas dinner might be just what you need. Although I haven’t personally experienced it, the reviews suggest it’s a top-tier choice for those wanting a personalized, home-style Mexican feast served right at their accommodation.
What I love about this offering is how it combines the comfort of a private setting with the flavors of authentic Mexican cuisine—perfect for a relaxed evening with friends or family. Plus, the fact that everything—from cooking to cleaning—is handled by a professional chef makes it incredibly appealing for travelers who just want to enjoy themselves without the hassle.
On the flip side, a potential consideration is that this service requires prior confirmation with the catering company to ensure they can access your villa or condo. If your accommodation has strict policies or limited access, it’s worth confirming ahead of time.
This experience is particularly well-suited for couples, families, or small groups seeking a memorable, hassle-free dinner with genuine Mexican flavors. It’s also ideal for special celebrations or just a cozy night in while on vacation.

What This Tour Offers in Detail

This private dinner experience is designed to make you feel like a guest at a family gathering, but with a professional touch. The main highlight is the gourmet fajitas, but the menu includes a variety of flavorful components that elevate the meal beyond simple tacos.
The Menu Breakdown
The meal kicks off with mini chorizo sopes and a creamy avocado sauce. If you’re familiar with Mexican street food, these small, flavorful bites offer an excellent start—robust, savory, with a hint of spice. The Cesar salad comes next, featuring crisp lettuce, crunchy parmesan, garlic croutons, and a homemade dressing, adding a fresh contrast to the warm dishes.
The centerpiece is mixed fajitas with multicolored peppers, served alongside poblano rice, refried beans, and an array of salsas, guacamole, and chips. The fajitas are a crowd-pleaser, showcasing the vibrant flavors and textures that Mexican cuisine is known for. Several reviews mention the deliciousness and the amount of leftovers—so you’re definitely leaving with a full belly and a few extra meals to enjoy later.
For dessert, the crunchy buñuelos are a standout, caramelized with coffee and served with a banana salsa. This sweet ending is a traditional treat that many people love for its balance of crunch and sweetness, with reviews praising its authenticity and flavor.
How It Works
The service includes everything you need: a chef to prepare and serve the meal, food, and the cleanup afterward. You can opt to add a waiter or bartender to round out your evening, making it more like a full-service restaurant experience. The minimum group size is four people, which helps keep the atmosphere intimate and personalized.

Authenticity and Quality

Reviewers consistently mention the high quality of the food and the professional service—”amazing food, great service,” as one put it. It’s clear that the chef takes pride in delivering a flavorful, memorable meal.
Practical Considerations
One point to remember is the importance of confirming access to your accommodation—since the service depends on the ability of the team to arrive and set up at your villa or condo. If your place has policies about outside vendors, it’s best to check with both your property management and Gourmet Cabo Catering beforehand. The company does not offer refunds if they are unable to access your place, so clarification is key.
The price of $85 per person is reasonable, considering that it includes not just the meal but also the chef, cooking, and cleaning. When you factor in that you’re essentially getting a gourmet dinner without leaving your space, it offers solid value—especially for special occasions or relaxed evenings.
Who Will Love This Experience?
This private fajitas dinner is perfect for travelers who want a taste of authentic Mexican food without the usual restaurant scene. It’s particularly suited for those celebrating a special occasion, families wanting a relaxed mealtime, or groups who enjoy sharing a genuinely flavorful meal in a cozy setting. If you value high-quality ingredients, personalized service, and the convenience of dining in your own villa, this service checks all those boxes.
It’s less ideal if you’re traveling solo or in very small groups, as the minimum number of four might be a barrier. Also, if your accommodation has strict policies about outside vendors, make sure to double-check before booking. But overall, it’s a fantastic way to enjoy a home-cooked-style meal in paradise.
