Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in New Orleans

From Mardi Gras parades rolling down St. Charles Avenue to Saints watch parties in Champions Square, New Orleans knows how to throw a party— and great parties demand unforgettable food. Modern event planners are swapping old-school tent kitchens for New Orleans food trucks with fully self-contained commercial kitchens, shorter setup times, and the authentic Crescent City flavor guests crave.

Best Food Trucks makes booking multiple food trucks for large-scale events in New Orleans simple and seamless. Whether you need smoky barbecue from NeauxLA RolLA for 5,000 Jazz Fest fans, or late-night tacos and arepas from La Cocinita NOLA to keep French Quarter revelers satisfied, we coordinate it all—permits, power, and service windows—so you can focus on the music and the memories.

Looking for down-home comfort food that tastes like your grandma’s Uptown kitchen? Creole Tomateaux and Kingdom Cafe 7003 LLC can plate up shrimp po’ boys, red beans & rice, and other Louisiana classics faster than you can say “laissez les bons temps rouler.” For festivals along the riverfront or corporate conventions at the Morial Convention Center, Cajun flair from Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux brings the spice that keeps crowds coming back for seconds.

No matter the headcount—500 or 50,000—Best Food Trucks delivers reliable, crowd-pleasing food truck catering for large-scale events in New Orleans. Give your guests a true taste of NOLA and turn your next festival, second-line, or tailgate into a culinary parade they’ll rave about long after the last brass note fades.

The food was absolutely amazing—the meats were tender and smoky, and every side dish was flavorful. The service team was outstandingly professional, friendly, and efficient, ensuring all our guests were served quickly and with a smile. Most importantly, the entire event went off without a single issue. Sweet Magnolia Smokehouse delivered incredible food and zero stress, making them the absolute highlight of our day!

My husband and I each had a fried chicken sandwich- the classic one and the one with cheese, lettuce and tomato. These were the best chicken sandwiches! We liked them better than Chick fil A!!

Piccolo Pizzetta’s pizza truck is truly wonderful! Their New York–style pizza is absolutely delicious—full of flavor, and so authentic. I did have to put it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes to get it super crispy as I prefer. And those zeppoles? They took me straight back to my childhood at a Manhattan pizzeria and the San Gennaro Festival. Such nostalgic, delightful bites! I definitely recommend it if you're craving genuine New York flavor right here in Epperson! 🍕💛

There were three of us. We all had different foods but all of us loved them-we had one Heat burger with onion rings that both folks loved. One person got the veggie burger-I had a taste and we both loved the flavors. I had the Mediterranean salad. I enjoyed the mixture of ingredients and the unexpected flavors of the broccoli and cauliflower.

The brisket melt was one of the best I’ve ever had. The cheese 🧀 was a nice bonus. The staff was super friendly.
