Des Moines Food Truck Catering for Parties
Throwing a birthday bash in Beaverdale, a graduation party near Drake University, or a tailgate before the next Cy-Hawk showdown? The quickest way to derail a Des Moines celebration is by under-feeding your guests. Skip the crowded kitchen, the sink full of dishes, and the last-minute pizza run—book food truck catering for parties in Des Moines with Best Food Trucks instead.
We roll the kitchen right to your curb, serve restaurant-quality meals made fresh to order, and drive off without leaving a single crumb behind. You keep every inch of living-room or backyard space open for dancing, yard games, and cheering, while your guests enjoy the best street food in the 515.
Craving bold Mexican flavor? Invite local legends like El Taco Guapo, Tacos Degollado, Tacos La Barca D.C., Ninas Tacos, or Taqueria La Esperanza to park outside your venue. From al-pastor that rivals the State Fair’s best bites to street-style tacos splashed with fresh-squeezed lime, these trucks turn any driveway or downtown loft into an instant fiesta.
Best Food Trucks handles scheduling, permits, and on-site logistics, letting you focus on playlists, party games, and making memories. For effortless, crowd-pleasing food truck catering for parties in Des Moines, book with us today and let the good times—and great eats—roll.
Skip the Line—Let Des Moines Party On!
Whether you’re lighting sparklers in a Beaverdale backyard, toasting along the Principal Riverwalk, or cranking up a playlist near Gray’s Lake, nobody wants to waste party time standing in a food line. Best Food Trucks solves that problem for Des Moines hosts with our slick online ordering system. Guests pull out their phones, tap in their order, then get a text the second their tenderloin sandwich, pork belly tacos, or vegan mac is ready—no guessing, no hovering around the truck.
Planning a surprise graduation bash by the Drake Bulldog statue? Shoot out a pre-order link so friends can choose a pick-up time before they even show up. Throwing an 80/35–style block party in the East Village? Real-time ordering keeps the crowd flowing and the dance floor open.

Food was amazing! Owners and staff really have a heart for service. All my guests raved about every item on the menu. Bananas Foster Plaintains were excellent and something no one had ever had.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.
