Austin Seafood Food Truck Catering

When Austinites crave Gulf-fresh flavor, they head straight for the food trucks parked along Rainey Street, at the Domain, or outside their favorite tech campus. Best Food Trucks brings that same “keep Austin tasty” attitude to your next event with the top seafood food truck catering in Austin.

Our curated fleet features local legends like the boil-master Texas Crab Company, the refined Southern plates at Black Sheep Soul, and the poke bowls from the island-inspired South Padre Crab Box. Need upscale flair? LeJon Gourmet Food Truck delivers Wagyu-level elegance and spicy honey-lime shrimp that keeps the hip East Side buzzing. For a tropical twist, Pineapple Ninjaz loads seafood favorites into fresh-cut pineapples—perfect for a selfie with the skyline in the background.

Every truck we dispatch is obsessed with freshness. Think shrimp pulled from the Gulf that morning, lump crab folded into avocado toast on site, and oysters shucked to order. We vet our partners for sustainable sourcing and we outfit them with state-of-the-art mobile kitchens, so whether you’re feeding 40 coworkers at a South Congress startup or 400 wedding guests on the banks of Lake Travis, every bite is cooked to sizzling perfection.

Yes, the Connecticut roll had a black hair in it and both of the entrees were missing the kettle chips. We paid way too much to not receive everything we paid for.

Delicious food, ready for pickup exactly when promised, and friendly, welcoming folks running the operation. I hope they return to Greyhawk Landing.

I would put messaging in the text alerts to: let the staff know when you have arrived and provide your order number. I waited 15 min. Not realizing that. Thank you

The shrimp was cooked to perfection. The rice was a little spicy but mmmmm. We we started eating, conversation stopped.

Food was very good and our guests enjoyed it. However, the wait for food orders was 35 to 45 minutes. Thankfully we also had an ice cream truck that guests could visit and have their ice cream while they waited for their lunch order.

This is the 2nd time in the last two orders mine was incorrect. Luckily this time I checked before walking off. I was missing my fries and the fish was not Nashville hot.

Tasty Maryland was amazing!!!! The company fed 63 people, and everyone raved about the food! That is rare that everyone was satisfied! The crab cake was awesome. I was skeptical about renting a food truck, but if you ever need a truck, they are your go-to!!! Delicious food and awesome people!!!

Food truck catering is when you hire a food truck to provide freshly made meals from a full service mobile kitchen for your event. Instead of using large containers filled with food made hours earlier, food is made fresh and onsite.
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.

Are there different budgets for each food truck proposal?
No. Each proposal will be for the budget you've chosen. If you have a budget of $2000, we'll only send you proposals for your budget of $2000.

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.
