Supporting Syracuse’s Small Businesses
Every time you book Syracuse American Bistro food truck catering, you’re feeding more than your guests—you’re feeding the 315 economy. Most of the American bistro food trucks that park at Clinton Square festivals or outside the SU Hill are owned by solo chefs, husband-and-wife teams, or second-generation family businesses. Your catering dollars go straight to Salt City neighbors, not far-away corporate franchises.
These rolling kitchens are also greener than traditional catering. Trucks like Smash Me 607 and The Chicken Bandit run compact, energy-efficient commissary setups and hand out meals in compostable or recyclable packaging—meaning less power used and fewer trash bags filling the Onondaga County landfill.
So the next time you hop on your phone and type “American bistro food trucks near me,” choose a Syracuse food truck that does triple duty: serves unforgettable burgers, boosts local small business, and treats Mother Nature right. Tap Best Food Trucks, and we’ll roll a socially responsible kitchen right up to your curb.

Fat Boys Food Truck catered our CEO’s 25th anniversary celebration, and they were fantastic from start to finish! The team was punctual, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Our staff had great things to say about how delicious everything was — the food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We were pleasantly surprised by the variety of options; we were expecting just burgers but were thrilled to see chicken tenders, wraps, and salads as well. Everyone found something they loved! Thank you, Fat Boys, for helping make our event such a success. We’ll definitely keep you in mind for future celebrations!
