With our New York–focused neighborhood catering service, you can forget about juggling menus, chasing no-show private chefs, or fielding complaints about soggy slices and cold burgers. We treat your guests like family—just with a lot less drama than Thanksgiving on Long Island.

Best Food Trucks is the city’s go-to partner for food truck catering for Neighborhood events in New York. We handle every logistic—parking permits, street closures, and the infamous alternate-side-parking shuffle—so you don’t have to.

Food and service was excellent. Arrival of food truck was late. Driver wanted to come half hour earlier (11:30a) to event to prep but ended up showing an hour later (12:30p). Wasn’t able to feed some of my important guests. They missed out on some good food to catch a flight. For the amount of $$ paid, was hoping have event catered on time.

Fresher ingredients. The tomatoes was kinda not fresh - like the skin was separating from the flesh. Maybe more veggies, as well. Overall it was good.
