Food Truck Catering for Parties in Des Moines
Whether you’re throwing a surprise birthday in Beaverdale, a Hawkeye game-day get-together in West Des Moines, or a graduation bash near Drake University, you already know that the fastest way to derail the fun is with lackluster food. Skip the stress of ovens, crockpots, and crowded kitchens—bring the kitchen to you with Best Food Trucks. We’re the Des Moines experts in food truck catering for parties, handling every detail so you can focus on the playlist, the photos, and that perfect view of the Des Moines River skyline.
Our platform connects you with top local favorites. Craving authentic street tacos? Roll up with Tacos Degollado, famous for al pastor that rivals anything on East Grand. Need more taco variety? Tacos La Barca D.C. and Ninas Tacos both bring fresh-pressed tortillas and salsas that light up any party from Gray’s Lake to the Historic East Village. Looking for classic Des Moines late-night flavor? Taqueria La Esperanza always delivers with bold Mexican street food favorites. If your crowd leans plant-based, surprise them with the creative vegan twists coming out of Veggie Thumper.
With Best Food Trucks, you’re not just ordering delicious cuisine—you’re reserving a self-contained mobile kitchen. No dirty pans in your sink, no catering trays hogging counter space, and absolutely zero cleanup.

Skip the Line—So You Can Soak Up the Party in Des Moines
Nothing kills a vibe faster than a long food line at a backyard bash in Beaverdale or a birthday blow-out near Water Works Park. Best Food Trucks solves that with our Des Moines–ready online ordering system. Guests pull out their phones, choose their tacos, BBQ, or vegan bowls, and get a text the moment their order is hot off the truck—no hovering by the window, no missing that key “Sweet Caroline” chorus.
Want to make it even smoother? Drop a pre-order link in your invite. Friends can schedule pick-up times before they load the cooler, during the halftime break of the big Cyclone–Hawkeye showdown, or after the last sparkler at your Gray’s Lake sunset party. Food truck catering with online ordering lets everyone focus on the fun while our rolling kitchens handle the cooking and the cleanup.
Bottom line: Best Food Trucks brings hassle-free, line-free food truck catering to Des Moines parties of every size—so you can clink glasses, snap pics, and enjoy the moment.

Hire this truck for your event! I hired them with about two weeks notice for my 50th birthday party, and I’m so glad I did! Donnell was fantastic to work with in terms of planning, and the food was *all* amazing—my guests could not stop raving. They worked with me to do small portions of more items so that we could have a variety… I chose jerk chicken, salmon, wings, and chicken tenders as entrees, and sides included Rasta Pasta, rice and peas, cabbage, and Yummy Mac. Everything about the entire experience was highly organized and super friendly, including impeccable service on the night of the event! Yummy food, and fantastic friendly service-you can’t go wrong! 😃
