Fueling Des Moines’ Small Businesses
Booking food truck catering for your Des Moines studio shoot does more than fill empty stomachs—it keeps money circulating right here in the Metro. Most DSM trucks are run by Drake grads, Valley Junction families, or longtime 515 service-industry pros chasing their culinary dream on wheels. Every taco, poke bowl, or smash burger you order helps a local owner pay staff, buy Iowa-grown produce, and keep their rig rolling from Ingersoll to Ankeny.
Food trucks also score high marks with eco-conscious producers. They require less power than a traditional buffet setup, arrive with reusable prep tools, and hand out meals in compostable packaging approved by Des Moines’ Waste Smart program. Fewer chafing dishes, less food waste, happier planet.
So the next time your production manager types “studio food truck catering Des Moines” or “low-budget film catering near me,” skip the bland box lunches and call Best Food Trucks. You’ll serve crowd-pleasing eats, cut your carbon footprint, and give a boost to the small businesses that make #DSMUSA delicious.

Elevated food truck. Will order again. It was delicious and high quality. Area for improvement: We received a text message it was ready and waited another 15 minutes. Time management needs to be improved. If this happens and everything else remains the same, then they are one of the best food trucks, if not the best, hands down.

Wow this was THE perfect idea for our graduation party. They arrived about 25 minutes prior to our event and was ready t serve immediately. The truck team were so friendly and fast with the food orders, even finding someone if they didn’t hear their name called. Everyone raved about the delicious food. Best part is we didn’t have a ton of catered or homemade food left overs. I will definitely do this again with Wok-O Taco!

I think they should remove the end pieces of the cornbread because the edges are hard. Outside of that, I enjoyed the food. I will buy it again. Thx!

My dish had onions, and I requested no onions. Thankfully, I was not allergic to them. The food and drink were really good
