Food Truck Catering for Parties in Des Moines
Whether you’re throwing a backyard bash in Beaverdale, a graduation party near Drake University, or a Hawkeye vs. Cyclone watch-party in West Des Moines, one thing is certain—great food makes the celebration. Party hosts across the metro have discovered the easiest way to guarantee rave reviews: book a food truck for your Des Moines party with Best Food Trucks.
Traditional catering can crowd your kitchen, leave a mess, and drain the fun out of your night. A food truck, on the other hand, rolls up self-contained, serves straight from the window, and rolls away—no dirty dishes, no stress. Best Food Trucks is the Des Moines leader in mobile vendor logistics, pairing hosts with professional chefs who know how to feed a crowd, rain or shine, from Court Avenue to the East Village and everywhere in between.

Food was amazing! Owners and staff really have a heart for service. All my guests raved about every item on the menu. Bananas Foster Plaintains were excellent and something no one had ever had.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.
