Bistro-Style Eats On Wheels – The Premier American Bistro Food Truck Catering in Orange County

Why fight traffic on the 405 to grab lunch in Costa Mesa or circle the parking lot at the Irvine Spectrum when a full-service American bistro kitchen can pull right up to your curb? With Best Food Trucks, your favorite Orange County flavors roll directly into your office park, wedding venue, or backyard party, serving every plate hot, fresh, and made to order.

No more chafing-dish casseroles or sluggish buffet lines—our modern American bistro food truck catering in Orange County lets guests order from their phones and get a text the moment their meal is ready. It’s quick, it’s interactive, and it keeps the line moving faster than traffic leaving an Angels game.

We partner with some of the most talked-about trucks cruising OC: sink your teeth into slow-smoked brisket at Sabroso Mobile Kitchen, build a custom burger worthy of Chef Indo’s “love and passion” at Messi Burger, or grab an Italian-inspired smash patty at Italian Burger&Grill. Craving a pressed Cubano or a mojo-marinated pork burrito? Kiki's Cuban Food has you covered, and comfort-food fans can round things out with the rotating classics from Savory Times.

From Newport Beach rooftop receptions to corporate lunches in Anaheim’s Platinum Triangle, Best Food Trucks makes American bistro food truck catering in Orange County effortless. Place your order online, track it in real time, and taste why OC foodies choose wheels over walls.

Supporting OC’s Home-Grown Food Truck Heroes

Every time you book an American bistro food truck with Best Food Trucks, you put your catering dollars back into Orange County’s backyard. Most of the rolling kitchens we roster are run by one-truck owner-operators—from husband-and-wife teams in Tustin to second-generation cooks who grew up cruising PCH. Your office lunch in Irvine, your Laguna Beach rehearsal dinner, or your youth-league banquet in Mission Viejo directly fuels local dreams instead of a distant corporate kitchen.

Choosing a food truck isn’t just good for people; it’s good for the Pacific coastline we call home. Our OC American bistro food trucks run lean, using far less power and water than a conventional banquet hall and sending dramatically less plastic and cardboard to the landfill. Many vendors source produce from Irvine Ranch or the Santa Ana farmers market and compost the scraps—so your catered smash burgers and brisket sliders leave a lighter footprint on The OC.

Ready to keep it local, flavorful, and eco-friendly? Skip the generic chain trays and search “American bistro food truck catering in Orange County.” You’ll see Best Food Trucks at the top of the list—tap us, track your truck in real time, and taste how good supporting small OC businesses can be.

David and his team did a wonderful job. They arrived early enough to get a head start on the food and were quick to serve our employees in a timely manner. Communication was great!

I can’t rave enough about The Fix. We hosted a Super Bowl party and once the truck started serving there was only a minute or two before people’s orders were ready. The food itself: YUMMY! Perfect size so very tasty hamburgers and the fries were crispy with an amazing seasoning. Having the vegetarian burger was so welcomed by a few and they were sure to let me know they appreciated not only the fantastic taste but that they too could enjoy a hamburger. I couldn’t believe how many day after the party calls I received raving on how delicious the food was. You must hire The Fix for your event! Everyone will love you too.

Their Mexican food is great. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the steak sliders were slightly inconsistent, but great tasting.

Amazing all-around. Service managed a long line with ease, everyone was not only impressed by the quality of food but also the portions. From before, during, and after service; everyone kept talking about how unique and great a truck like this was. My boss was also more than pleased on the outcome, we would love to use this truck again for future events.

How do we choose the budget for our food truck event?

Best Food Trucks has the best in class technology platform to allow your guests to skip the line and order directly from their phone. This ensures that your customers can enjoy your event and avoid waiting in line. When their order is ready, they'll get a text message to come pick up their order.
