Hawaiian Food Truck Catering in Tacoma
From the salty breeze rolling in off Commencement Bay to the busy concourses outside the Tacoma Dome, nobody does laid-back island flavor in the South Sound quite like our Hawaiian food trucks. Hawaiian cuisine itself is a melting pot of Polynesian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, and American influences—and that fusion spirit fits Tacoma’s own blend of maritime history, military families from nearby JBLM, and a thriving downtown arts scene. When you book Hawaiian food truck catering in Tacoma with Best Food Trucks, you bring a taste of aloha to your company picnic at Point Defiance Park, wedding reception on Ruston Way, or block party in Proctor.
Start with a traditional poke bowl from Poke Me, or try celebrity-chef-endorsed island classics at Sam Choy's Poke to the Max. Want to mix it up? Mix Poke Truck layers fresh Northwest seafood with bold Hawaiian marinades for a Tacoma twist that locals rave about. If your guests are craving something different, add Filipino-Asian fusion comfort plates from Fil Up! or burgers and tots from Tacoma favorite Rain City Too. With Best Food Trucks, coordinating multiple menus is as easy as a stroll down Pacific Avenue.
