Keep in touch. Messaged ready at desired time. Shouted out for people who preordered so no waiting behind those who didn't. And the food was awesome!

Great menu variety and feedback from employees on the quality, quantity, and taste of the food. The service was good, even though they had an equipment failure. Very friendly staff.

Very good, quality food. You, like many bbq places, need to cut the brisket across the grain-- I'm from TX and always amazed when bbq people don't do that.

The pizza was great, the only thing I could be nitpicky about was the top of my deep dish slice was burnt and not simply like a char. Other than that it reminded me of authentic Chicago deep dish which is hard to come by here in Nashville

This was the most popular truck at the event and they completely sold out!

I ordered online and had to wait 30 minutes for a simple Italian beef sandwich. I stood and waited while other people walked up to order and received their sandwiches within 5-10 minutes. The wait was absolutely ridiculous, and I will not be ordering online again.

How does food truck catering work with Best Food Trucks?
With Best Food Trucks, you choose the budget for your event and provide details like, time, date, how many diners and what type of party you're throwing. Best Food Trucks will send out your request to regional food trucks who will submit a proposal based on your budget.
How do we choose the budget for our food truck event?
You choose the budget (within our parameters) and we'll find proposals that match that budget. Every proposal we send you will be for your submitted budget.

Food trucks that can serve fast and serve a cuisine that can easily be eaten while standing without having to use utensils, typically work for a party atmosphere.
