Events we handle
Every event is different, and the menu and service adapt. Some of the ones we do often:
Small, intimate weddings: ceremonies and dinners on the beach or in a garden, with Caribbean menus for your group.
Group dinners and celebrations: birthdays, anniversaries, and family gatherings, with tables made for sharing.
Corporate events and retreats: lunches and dinners for groups coming to the area on retreat or for work.
Tour groups and hotels: coordinated menus for tour operators and hotels in Puerto Viejo, Cahuita, and Manzanillo that need to feed their groups.
Catering with the flavor of the Caribbean coast
Our catering brings GigiO's kitchen to wherever your event is. The menu is built with you, but the foundation is the same as in the restaurant: fresh local produce and real Caribbean recipes.
Seafood stations: ceviche, coconut shrimp, grilled fish, and seafood rice.
Caribbean specialties: rice and beans, patacones, plantain, and house sauces.
Bar service for events: signature cocktails, cold local beers, and non-alcoholic tropical options.
Options for every diet: vegetarian and gluten-friendly dishes, so all your guests eat well.
Why GigiO for your event
Planning something far from home isn't easy, and that's where working with local people helps. GigiO brings:
A local team that knows the coast: from beach permits to the best time for a sunset dinner, we know how Puerto Viejo works.
Responsible sourcing: seafood bought daily from fishermen in Puerto Viejo and Manzanillo, and produce from growers in the area.
Location flexibility: in our space in the center of town, or we bring the catering to your villa, hotel, or beach.
Close coordination: we work through the menu, timing, and guest count with you, no surprises.
