Hot, Customizable Meals for Your New Orleans Studio Crew—Served Right on Time!
Down here in “Hollywood South,” crews move fast—from sunrise shots on the levee to late-night pickups in the French Quarter. Best Food Trucks keeps pace by bringing the city’s top mobile kitchens straight to your set. Our team handles everything: designing rotating daily menus packed with Crescent City flavor, mapping the perfect parking spot so talent and techs can grab a plate between takes, streamlining online ordering and walk-up pickup, and vetting every vendor for permits and insurance required by Orleans Parish. You’ll even get a clear cost analysis that stays on budget (that’s a little lagniappe for the line producer).
Imagine treating the crew to a smoky brisket po-boy from Creole Tomateaux on Monday, hearty gumbo from Kingdom Cafe 7003 llc on Tuesday, and blackened shrimp tacos from Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux by mid-week. Need barbecue that’ll make the gaffers start a second line? Book the locally loved food bus NeauxLA RolLA. And when the cast needs a pick-me-up after a long night shoot, nothing hits like the signature Red Bean Chili “Dawg” from Diva Dawg Food Truck.
Food truck catering also keeps the bayou beautiful—individual portions mean less wasted food and minimal packaging. Let Best Food Trucks handle the eats so your production can focus on the scenes. From Uptown studios to makeshift sound stages in the Bywater, we’ve got the grills fired up and ready when you holler, “That’s lunch!”
Fueling New Orleans Dreams—One Small Business at a Time
Every plate that rolls off a food truck window in New Orleans carries more than flavor—it carries the hustle of our city’s mom-and-pop entrepreneurs. Booking food truck catering for your studio set means your production dollars stay right here on the river, backing the family that hand-rolls their own andouille in Gentilly or the Uptown cousins who still stir their praline batter with Grandma’s spoon. That’s money flowing back into local vendors, farmers’ markets, and the very neighborhoods that give “Hollywood South” its soul.
Food trucks are also an eco-smart win for any film crew watching the bottom line. Their compact kitchens sip far less power than a traditional pop-up buffet, and individualized portions slash food waste—perfect for shoots that jump from a Warehouse District soundstage to dawn exteriors on Esplanade. In short: greener footprint, happier line producer.
So the next time you type “low-budget film catering New Orleans” into your phone between takes, remember Best Food Trucks. We’ll line up licensed, insured local rigs that make your crew smile, keep your accounting team on budget, and give a little lagniappe back to the Crescent City economy. That’s a second-line worth joining.

Food was amazing. Chef Yarwood clearly knows what he is doing. The steak tips with mushrooms and onions as well as the Mac and cheese were truly delicious. I will definitely be ordering again in the future.

Good pizza! I love the crust and the garlic is over the top! Suggestion: allow me to add sausage and extra basil to the base white pizza without adding red sauce.😉

I found the cheese pizza to be salty and the margherita pizza needed more tomato sauce. The cauliflower crust was good as was the balsamic vinaigrette.

I was home and didn’t plan on going back out. I got a pop up that the Melt Machine was a few minutes away. I placed an order and left my house for a grilled cheese and tots! LOVE the Melt Machine!!!!
