Hot, Customizable Creole-Inspired Meals for Your New Orleans Studio Set!
Whether your production is rolling cameras on the Riverfront or lighting up a soundstage in Elmwood, Best Food Trucks is the easiest way to lock in studio food truck catering in New Orleans. We’ve spent years feeding “Hollywood South” film crews, so we know that tight call sheets, unpredictable weather, and hungry gaffers leave zero room for error. Our team tailors rotating daily menus that keep cast and crew energized with local flavor while still offering gluten-free, vegan, and keto choices for the most persnickety eaters.
We handle every detail—scouting the best service location on your lot, setting up staggered pickup windows to cut down on lines, and vetting every vendor for City of New Orleans permits and insurance. You’ll receive a clear cost summary and real-time ordering reports, so your budget stays as buttoned-up as your continuity binder. Plus, food truck catering slashes packaging waste compared to box lunches, helping your set stay green like the oaks in City Park.
Craving local favorites? We roll up with New Orleans legends such as Creole Tomateaux, the soul-warming Kingdom Cafe 7003 LLC, the BBQ-packed food bus NeauxLA RolLA, Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux, and the crowd-pleasing Diva Dawg Food Truck. From smoky brisket poboys to red-bean-chili dawgs, our lineup keeps every meal break feeling like a quick trip to Jazz Fest.
Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your studio—it's one less thing to worry about while you’re chasing that golden “magic hour” shot over the Mississippi.
Supporting New Orleans Small Businesses—One Food Truck at a Time
When you book studio food truck catering in New Orleans, you’re not just crossing “craft services” off the call sheet—you’re pumping life into the city’s vibrant small-business scene. The trucks that pull up to your soundstage in Bywater or your green screen rig in Harahan are usually run by solo chefs, husband-and-wife teams, and multigenerational families who’ve been perfecting their recipes since the days of Buddy D. Your order keeps their burners lit and their kids in school—talk about local impact!
Hiring food trucks is also a greener play than traditional buffet lines. These mobile kitchens sip less electricity, cut down on single-use pans, and leave behind fewer trash bags—so your set stays as clean as the freshly swept bricks on Frenchmen Street after a second-line parade. Add compostable serving ware, and you’ve got an eco-friendly production worthy of its own applause.
Ready to swap Styrofoam box lunches for beignet bites, bayou-fresh shrimp tacos, and piping-hot gumbo? The next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me,” call Best Food Trucks and let New Orleans’ small-business owners feed your crew the good stuff—because a happy stomach makes for a smoother shoot, cher.

Lupita's Tacos were incredible - I've received positive feedback from attendees! The food was great! I really appreciated the pre-packaging, it made everything go by so smoothly and the line was never too long. And communication up to the event was great. My one suggestion would be to label the pre-packaging so people know what type of meat is inside the burritos/tacos, instead of having to open each container. But other than that, amazing! Will definitely keep them in mind for future events :)

Well, my husband and I ordered the Italian beef sandwich and it was phenomenal. The crunch on that bread was amazing. Probably the best sandwich I've ever had on Italian beef as a matter of fact, it was the best sandwich ever.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Truck arrived well before the event to prepare. The owners/workers were very friendly as I met them upon arrival. They provided a varied selection of entrees to satisfy everyone's tastes and provided options for those with dietary restrictions. Food was also delicious per the team; I can say the burgers and burritos were a hit.

Despite the fact that the food was fabulous, I will share with everyone I know to never patronize the Smokin' Dough food truck. The person who handed me my order was rude and yelled at me when I asked about the diet cola that I ordered that they were unable to fulfill. They do not understand customer service, and when I shared that I wouldn't be coming back, she seemed gleeful at that prospect. Smokin' Dough is not an inexpensive food truck and I had even left a 10% tip when I placed the order online. That was a huge mistake.

The last sure times I've placed a order the burrito has been busted open on one or both sides. Other than that, it's been delicious.
