We collaborate closely with you to tailor menus that not only satisfy hunger but also bring a taste of Chicago's rich culinary culture to your staff and visitors.

Our rigorous vetting process guarantees that all vendors, such as The Fat Shallot for mouthwatering sandwiches, La Comodita for authentic Italian fare, Brothers Bbq Chicago and Soul & Smoke for succulent barbecue, and Doris's Taco Truck for a unique twist, have the necessary permits and insurance. This ensures a worry-free experience for you and your team.

"Our hospital event was a hit, thanks to the incredible variety and quality of food trucks you brought to our doorstep. The Chicago-style hot dog and deep-dish pizza trucks were especially a hit among our staff and visitors. The dessert truck with those famous Chicago cheesecakes was the cherry on top. Your team's professionalism and attention to detail did not go unnoticed. A huge thank you from all of us!"

Comments from Inspira Senior VP: The staff loved it. The vendor even made sandwiches & waffles brought them to OR staff that couldn’t get to the truck. They came from Morris County in north jersey. Very pleasant & accommodating. Please let them know of the great service

We hired Uptown Food Truck for a private party with 60-70 attendees. Everyone loved the food choices and high quality. Chef Chris and team did a fabulous job. We had four selections and all were excellent: Bacon cheese burger, grilled chicken sandwich, shrimp and grits, and chicken and waffles. We highly recommend Uptown Food Truck.

Everything was perfect. Grilled to perfection, on a toasted bun, with very fresh produce on it. It wasn't greasy at all, and the fries were absolutely on point and delicious. My best friend and I split a burger and large fries and it was the perfect amount for both of us!!
