Hot, Customizable Meals for Your New Orleans Studio Set!
When the cameras are rolling in the Crescent City, you don’t have time to worry about lunch. Best Food Trucks has spent years feeding crews from the French Quarter all the way up Chef Menteur Highway, so we know exactly how to keep a production running on schedule. Our team will build rotating daily menus that highlight NOLA flavor, map out the smoothest service spots on-lot or on-location, streamline mobile ordering and pickup, verify every vendor’s permits and insurance, and hand you a clear cost breakdown that fits your budget. Less stress, less food waste, and fewer single-use containers—food truck catering is as green as the live oaks in City Park.
Want real local taste? Tap into New Orleans’ own rolling kitchens. Craving classic comfort? Order up Creole Tomateaux or Kingdom Cafe 7003 LLC for hearty plates that keep the gaffers grinning. Need a smoky twist? NeauxLA RolLA parks a full-blown barbecue bus right by your grip truck. Looking for a little lagniappe of Cajun spice? Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux or the crowd-favorite Diva Dawg Food Truck will have the whole set saying “laissez les bons temps rouler” between takes.
From sunrise call times in Algiers to night shoots on St. Charles Avenue, Best Food Trucks keeps your cast and crew fueled with the flavors that make New Orleans famous. Book your studio catering today and taste why locals and filmmakers alike swear by our service.
Fueling Your Shoot—and NOLA’s Small Businesses
Booking New Orleans food truck catering for a studio set doesn’t just fill bellies; it puts real money back into the neighborhoods that inspire your scenes. Most Crescent City food trucks are run by second-line chefs, moms, pops, and lifelong friends from parishes like Jefferson, St. Bernard, and Plaquemines. Every plate of jambalaya or shrimp po’-boy keeps their doors—and our city’s unique culinary culture—wide open.
Unlike big-box caterers that haul in supplies from out of state, these mobile kitchens shop farmers markets on Oretha Castle Haley, seafood docks in Westwego, and spice shops on Decatur Street. Your cast and crew taste authentic, locally sourced flavor, and our independent vendors get the steady work that lets them roll on through the slow season. That’s a win-win the Saints would cheer for.
Food trucks are also the greenest way to feed a film set in New Orleans. With citywide Styrofoam bans and our love for reusable serving ware, trucks burn less energy than a full commissary tent and generate far less trash than boxed lunches. Many of our partner operators run on biodiesel or solar assist, so your production’s carbon footprint stays lighter than a beignet.
So when your location manager types “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food truck catering New Orleans,” give Best Food Trucks a shout. We’ll line up licensed, insured local vendors who make your mealtimes memorable, sustainable, and unmistakably NOLA. Roll cameras, roll lunch, and laissez les bons temps rouler!

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.

All of it! The egg rolls are delicious, the vegetables and rice are so good. The sauces and adding the fork were the perfect additional touch.
