Supporting New York’s Small Businesses
When you choose American Bistro food truck catering in New York, you’re not just ordering lunch—you’re investing in the city’s heartbeat: its independent entrepreneurs. Every truck that rolls up to a SoHo art gallery opening or a Tribeca film shoot is owned by a Queens mom-and-pop team, a Brooklyn culinary-school grad, or a Bronx family that’s been perfecting their brine for generations. Your booking keeps real New York dollars circulating from the Bowery to Bay Ridge.
Food trucks are also one of the most eco-friendly catering options in the five boroughs. These self-contained mobile kitchens sip far less energy than a traditional banquet setup and generate minimal waste—no mountains of disposable trays piling up on a Midtown curb. In a city where every square foot (and every trash bag) counts, that lighter footprint matters.
So the next time you Google “American Bistro food truck near me in New York,” remember that Best Food Trucks brings the flavor and the social good. Book your truck, delight your guests, and give NYC’s small-business owners another reason to fire up the griddle tomorrow morning.

Food and service was excellent. Arrival of food truck was late. Driver wanted to come half hour earlier (11:30a) to event to prep but ended up showing an hour later (12:30p). Wasn’t able to feed some of my important guests. They missed out on some good food to catch a flight. For the amount of $$ paid, was hoping have event catered on time.

We were very happy with the Smash Burger truck. They showed up on time, were very professional, and the food was delicious. I would hire them again. Thank you!

Pot roast po boy was bland. It could use more seasoning. Shrimp po boys and Brussels sprouts were great.

Burgers needed more fresh fixings (onion, lettuce) All our burgers had a tiny, wilted lettuce piece that we removed. Also the option to opt out of mustard
