Jungle Cuisine is an amazing place not only to eat but they have a museum and a beautiful outdoor areas to walk around and take photos. This is in Uh May and separated from the Tulum location. It has 2 parts: Jungle Cuisine restaurant and Sfer Ik museum.
Jungle Cuisine Restaurant The restaurant has different outdoor seating areas with beautiful settings. A lot of plants and a blue pool in the middle makes this place like a heaven!The music around the garden also adds the vibe of magical to this place. Everything is so beautiful, you won’t regret a trip here!
I had the set lunch menu with the below Mexican-international cuisine. They offer vegan, fish, and steak menus. I chose steak menu: Organic warm salad: endives, coconut cheese, asparagus, watermelon, radish, chili oil Sweet potato, pumpkin puree and chili oil Main course: wild deer filet, black garlic, almond sauce, and organic seasonal vegetables Desserts: Black sesame seed, kefir, seaweed ice cream, charcoal flakes Bonus desserts (from fish menu): dark chocolate sponge, cacao crumbs, and hoja santa ice cream Drink: charcoal cocktail
Sfer Ik museum This is a museum with their signature plant and wooden arts. Open daily from 10am to 5pm with $20 admission fee (at the time I went, May 2021). Admission is waived if you eat at Jungle Cuisine restaurant. Very beautiful with different sections. You will take lots of photos here!
The only downturn is it’s a little pricey. Transportation booked through the hotel is pricey $400 for 6 people in 2 hours. You can book car not from Azulik to cut down the cost. Overall, the service is really good. Very fast and out of their way to serve. They have an underground wine...
Read moreMy husband and I went to Jungle cruise last night for dinner, this was our first night out without our baby. As soon as we pulled up it something was “off” the guard couldn’t find our reservation then once we allowed to park they directed up towards the museum and stopped us at the door then directed us to our table. It was all very disorganized and felt weird, definitely not worthy of a five star restaurant title. We finally got to our table we were the ONLY people in there, immediately I didn’t like the vibe. There are no menus, drinks are not included. I asked for the wifi and explained to our waiter that we have a small baby at home with a nanny and need to be on call. He gave us the code and took our order, it was all odd with no menu and not being able to look at the ingredients. I think he picked on how confused we were and told us the price ($275 usd) we laughed and asked for the bill for our drink (I knew it would take too long for us). It was $40 for a water, one drink, tax and tip. DO NOT go to this place unless you are there purely for the aesthetic. I can’t rate the food, but based on the service and ambiance I’m so...
Read moreI'm shocked anyone wouldn't give this place amazing reviews, it is truly one of the most special and unique dining experiences I've ever had. It cost about $700 usd for two people with the tasting menu and cocktails, which I know is crazy expensive for tulum but it was worth every penny for the experience! Erica was our server and she made sure our meal was perfect from start to finish! It comes with a tour of the museum and grounds which I didn't even know about, and since we were the last table for the night she told us immediately to go tour it before it closed which was super helpful. We essentially had the place to ourselves, it was super romantic and personalized! Everyone was so helpful and willing to take photos of us for almost an hour before dinner. It's so gorgeous, looks very similar to the azulik hotel but even more special! The meal itself was a work of art and the entire space has so much time and effort put into every detail. Absolutely amazing, I think this is a great place for a special occasion, a wedding or engagement would be spectacular here! Ask for Erica for an...
