We had a great experience with the Sizzling Wagon! The food was fresh, tasty, and they made accommodations for special diet restrictions. Service was awesome, and everything ran smoothly. Our team really enjoyed it—we’d be happy to have them back again!

Brian was fabulous, fun and professional! All our 40 guests LOVED the tacos and the service. Many have asked for Brian's contact information to write positive reviews and to use his services at their own parties. Thumbs up!!!

Loved this food truck, both the food and the crew! They were wonderful, kind and very quick. The price was not too bad for what we got and we'd love to host with them again!

The burgers were delicious, as always. We never miss having Tampa Burgers, even if we still call them Shula burgers. Cooked perfectly and never dry or overdone.

The food was amazing, especially the sweet potato fries with the marshmallow. This meal lifted my spirits and put me in a great mood.

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.

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.
