Hot, Customizable Meals for Your New Orleans Studio Crew

Filming in the Crescent City means long days, tight call sheets, and a crew that craves real New Orleans flavor. Best Food Trucks has years of experience feeding productions from the French Quarter to Elmwood Studios, so your meal breaks stay on schedule and your cast and crew stay happy.

We build rotating daily menus that showcase local favorites—Cajun, Creole, Latin, vegan, gluten-free, you name it—so even the most persnickety eater is covered. Our team scouts the best serving location on set, streamlines online ordering and contact-free pickup, and vets every vendor for Orleans Parish permits and insurance.

Pick from the city’s most-loved trucks: the bold bayou bites of Creole Tomateaux; Latin street eats from La Cocinita NOLA; gourmet dawgs at Diva Dawg Food Truck; hearty plates from Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux; and stick-to-your-ribs comfort fare from Kingdom Cafe 7003 LLC. We rotate trucks daily so your grip crew never eats the same lunch twice.

Food truck catering reduces food and packaging waste—good for your budget and for the bayou. Let Best Food Trucks handle the logistics and cost analysis while you keep the cameras rolling. For studio food truck catering in New Orleans, we’ve got you covered—laissez les bons temps rouler!

24-Hour Production Catering catering

Fueling Your Shoot & Uplifting New Orleans’ Small Businesses

Booking a food truck for your studio set does double duty: it feeds your cast and crew authentic New Orleans cuisine and pours money right back into the neighborhoods that make this city legendary. Nearly every truck we partner with is a family-run operation—think mom stirring the roux while dad books tomorrow’s gig and the kids hand out po-boys through the service window.

Unlike big-box caterers, these rolling kitchens buy seafood from local docks, produce from Crescent City Farmers Market, and bread from Gendusa Bakery, keeping the economic circle tight along the Mississippi. Your production dollars help a Seventh Ward pitmaster pay the mortgage or a Gentilly dessert truck upgrade its fryer—real impact you can taste.

Food trucks are also a greener choice for studio food truck catering in New Orleans. With compact cooking setups, smaller generators, and built-in portion control, they use less energy and create far less waste than buffet lines of chafing dishes. We even encourage eco-friendly service ware that won’t clog Bayou Bienvenue.

So next time you’re Googling “low budget film catering New Orleans” from your call sheet, let Best Food Trucks roll up. You’ll keep your crew happy, your sustainability officer smiling, and our city’s small-business culture second-lining all the way to the bank. Laissez les bons temps rouler!

This was my first time looking into getting a food truck on site to feed our employees. You guys made it very easy and so did Paul, with Doc E's BBQ! The food was delicious and everyone I talked to say the same! The portions were perfect and was a very easy process. I had the pulled pork with slaw on top for my first plate and then later on Paul gave us a pan of ribs that were phenomenal!

Kenny and his team were amazing! The over delivered for a prospective customer! Each dish was beautiful and tasted even better. People were taking pictures of their plates before diving into the huge portions! We will definitely use them again!

The pad Thai was terrific and so was the Thai fried rice. The best part was the way you sliced and cooked the chicken and beef

The whole thing! Everything was great. Chicken and black beans were perfectly seasoned, rice was the proper consistency, the plantain was a nice touch and the fried patty things was also exceptional. Sauce was great too.
