Hot, Customizable Meals for Every New Orleans Studio Set
From the sound stages in the Bywater to the backlots in Harahan, Best Food Trucks keeps New Orleans film crews fueled and on schedule with top-tier food truck catering. We understand the unique rhythm of a Crescent City shoot—early call times, lightning-fast lunch windows, and the occasional second-line parade rolling past the gate—so we make sure every meal break hits the mark and the timeline.
Our local team will curate rotating daily menus that spotlight the flavors the city is famous for while still offering options for vegan, gluten-free, and other dietary needs. We’ll scout the best service location on your studio lot, streamline online ordering and express pickup, vet every truck for Orleans Parish permits and insurance, and deliver a clear cost analysis that keeps you on budget. All you have to do is yell “cut,” and your cast and crew can dig in.
Want that authentic NOLA bite? Picture your grip crew grabbing fiery jambalaya from Creole Tomateaux, your lead actress savoring a Venezuelan arepa from La Cocinita NOLA, or the whole camera department loading up on smoked brisket sliders at NeauxLA RolLA. Toss in homestyle plates from Kingdom Cafe 7003 llc and spicy étouffée from Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux and you’ve got a menu that’ll keep even the pickiest eater happy. Laissez les bons temps rouler—and let us handle the chow.
Food truck catering isn’t just delicious; it’s greener too. Individually cooked, made-to-order meals mean less food waste and minimal packaging, a big win for productions striving for sustainable sets. Trust Best Food Trucks to manage every detail of your studio’s food truck catering in New Orleans, so you can focus on capturing that perfect shot.
Fueling New Orleans Studios—And Our Local Small Businesses
Every time you roll a food truck onto your New Orleans studio lot, you’re putting much more than po-boys and praline bread pudding on the menu—you’re investing directly in the mom-and-pop operations that make this city sing. Most NOLA food trucks are owned by solo chefs, family crews, or neighborhood collectives who source their shrimp from local docks and their produce from Crescent City farmers’ markets. Booking them for your film set catering keeps those dollars circulating right here in Orleans Parish and helps the city’s culinary culture stay as vibrant as a Frenchmen Street jam session.
Food truck catering is also a green light for eco-friendly production. Trucks run lean kitchens that waste less energy than traditional buffet spreads, and their made-to-order service slashes food waste—perfect for studios chasing a lower carbon footprint alongside that perfect tracking shot. So the next time “low budget film catering near me” pops up on your call sheet, give Best Food Trucks a shout. We’ll line up a fleet of locally owned trucks that feed your crew, boost the New Orleans economy, and keep your set as sustainable as a bayou breeze.

I always love the taco nachos. This was the first time that we placed an order for the pulled pork Quesadilla. It did not disappoint in any way. It was delicious!!! We love The Nacho wagon!

We did a pre order online and didn't know the burgers came with fries - not an issue just something that would be nice to know because we ordered additional fries then

Freshness. Crispy oinion rings and fries. Burgers were perfectly built. Only critique would be on the pricey side.

Food is 10/10. I look forward to ordering every time it's by the office. The staff working the truck are so kind too.

The crispy crunchy bread. Also like that it doesn't come with a side because the sandwich is plenty by itself.

When we ordered in September, it was awesome! This time, there were 4 misshapen ribs (one huge, 2 medium, one bite size). The sausage also tasted overcooked and was sliced into small pieces (nothing like the last time). The is was the first time that we had food requested at the start of the shift, and not at 7:00 PM, and it seemed as if this was leftover from a prior shift and 'dumped' on us. Was still tasty with the sauce, but disappointed in this trip (and we raved about Logan's to many friends.....)

The staff running the truck was amazing.. We had a lot of people bombard the truck after my mother’s services and they got people food quickly. They had their serving down. We would definitely hire them again.
