Skip the Line and Soak Up the Event—Des Moines Style!
Best Food Trucks brings more than mouth-watering menus to large scale events in Des Moines—we bring convenience. Our cutting-edge online ordering system lets your crowd stay glued to the Drake Relays finish line or the main stage at the Des Moines Arts Festival instead of standing in a food line. With just a few taps on their phones, guests place an order, keep cheering, and receive a text the moment their meal is hot and ready.
Planning ahead? Send attendees a pre-order link so they can lock in a pickup time before the gates even open at Water Works Park or before the first band hits the stage at 80/35. Our platform is built for the rapid-fire rush that comes with stadium concerts, charity runs around Gray’s Lake, and packed nights outside Wells Fargo Arena—processing hundreds of orders per minute without a hiccup.
Food truck catering for large scale events in Des Moines has never been this smooth. Pair Best Food Trucks’ elite lineup of local kitchens on wheels with our high-volume online ordering, and your guests get the exceptional eats they crave while you get an event that flows as easily as a summer night on Court Avenue.

Add a choice of flour tortilla for tacos. I love corn tortillas, but I am now allergic to corn sadly. It's not severe, but it is uncomfortable. So I just took the steak out of the tacos and put them in a soft taco I had here.

They provided pico de gallo even though they missed the extra salsa verde (again!). But the tacos and quesadilla were awesome!
