Food Truck Catering for Parties in Santa Barbara
From milestone birthdays in Mission Canyon to graduation bashes near UCSB, Santa Barbara locals know that a great party starts with unforgettable food. Yet anyone who’s hosted a gathering on the Riviera, along State Street, or down in the Funk Zone also knows how quickly kitchen chaos can steal the spotlight. Skip the stress, the cluttered countertops, and the post-party cleanup by bringing in a food truck for your Santa Barbara party instead.
Best Food Trucks is the Central Coast’s trusted partner for food truck catering logistics. We roll up with a fully self-contained kitchen, professional chefs, and a menu your guests will rave about—no ovens to borrow, no trash bags full of pans, and no traffic jam in your dining room. Just ocean-breezy vibes, ample space for your guests to mingle, and plates of fresh food served hot from the truck window.
Choose from local favorites that represent the true flavor of Santa Barbara County:
- Tacos Pipeye – Authentic Mexican tacos packed with the vibrant flavors you’ll recognize from Lower State’s late-night scene.
- Maravilla Latin Cuisine – A celebration of Latin comfort food that pairs perfectly with a sunset over Leadbetter Beach.
- Gloria's Gourmet Kitchen – Crowd-pleasing street-style tacos ideal for backyard fiestas in Goleta or summer soirées in Montecito.
- Yummy Bird – Crispy fried chicken and fusion bites that keep the party energy soaring higher than the Santa Ynez peaks.
Whether you’re hosting a small soirée overlooking the harbor or a lively neighborhood block party in Mesa, our Santa Barbara food truck catering service keeps the focus on friends, fun, and the city we love—while we handle every last food detail.

Best Food Trucks’ slick mobile-ordering system lets your guests stay on the dance floor at Elings Park, keep their feet in the sand at East Beach, or snap sunset selfies on the Riviera—without ever standing in a food line. A couple of taps on their phone sends the order straight to the truck, and a text buzzes them when the plate is hot and ready. More “¡Salud!” time, zero queuing.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.
