"Josie was my representative and she was VERY easy to work with! She set me up with 6 trucks since we were serving 800 people and on a tight schedule. I could not have had a better experience! I would give 10 stars if I could."

Most Popular Cuisines for Dallas Events

DFW's food scene rivals any major city—these are the cuisines that make events unforgettable

Texas BBQ

Dallas takes its BBQ seriously. Slow-smoked brisket, tender ribs, and house-made sausage links are perfect for corporate picnics, rehearsal dinners, and any event where you want that authentic Texas experience.

Tex-Mex & Tacos

From upscale street tacos to loaded nachos and fajita stations, Tex-Mex is a crowd-pleaser for every occasion. Breakfast tacos work brilliantly for morning events, and taco bars let guests customize their plates.

Gourmet Burgers

Dallas's burger truck scene goes far beyond basic patties. Wagyu beef, creative toppings, and artisan buns elevate this American classic to event-worthy status. Great for casual celebrations and corporate gatherings.

Asian Fusion

Korean BBQ tacos, Thai-inspired bowls, and Vietnamese banh mi reflect DFW's growing Asian food scene. These cuisines offer bold flavors and naturally accommodate many dietary preferences.

Southern Comfort

Fried chicken, shrimp and grits, and buttermilk biscuits bring warmth to any celebration. Southern comfort food is especially popular for family reunions and events with multi-generational guests.

Wood-Fired Pizza

Mobile pizza ovens create restaurant-quality pies in minutes. Watching pizzas being made is entertainment in itself, and the variety of toppings means there's something for everyone.

Best Times to Book in Dallas

Plan around DFW's weather and event calendar for the best experience

Spring (March-May)

Prime event season in DFW. Comfortable temperatures and wildflower blooms create perfect conditions. Wedding season peaks, so book 3-4 months ahead for Saturday events.

Summer (June-August)

Triple-digit heat is common. Evening events after 6 PM work best, or choose venues with shade structures. Indoor/outdoor hybrid setups are popular. Better pricing and availability mid-week.

Fall (September-November)

The other peak season as heat breaks. Football tailgates at AT&T Stadium drive demand. State Fair of Texas in October adds to the festive atmosphere. Book early for fall weddings.

Winter (December-February)

Mild by national standards, though cold fronts happen. Holiday parties fill December calendars. January and February offer excellent availability for corporate events.

Event Catering FAQs

Questions Dallas hosts ask most often

How much does food truck catering cost for a wedding in Dallas?

Wedding catering typically runs $15-25 per person depending on the cuisine and service style. For a 150-guest wedding, expect $2,500-$4,000 including setup, service, and cleanup. Late-night food truck add-ons start around $1,000.

How far in advance should I book for a Dallas wedding?

We recommend booking 3-6 months ahead for weddings, especially for spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) peak seasons. Popular trucks book quickly. For other events, 2-4 weeks is usually sufficient.

Can food trucks serve at any DFW venue?

Most venues accommodate food trucks in parking areas or designated spots. Some venues have preferred vendor lists, but many allow outside catering. We'll help coordinate with your venue and handle any required permits or insurance.

What about guests with dietary restrictions?

Dallas's diverse food truck scene includes vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal, and kosher options. Tell us your guests' needs and we'll match you with trucks that can accommodate everyone.

Do you handle permits for public events in Dallas?

Yes! We assist with City of Dallas and surrounding city permits for parks and public spaces. Requirements vary by location—we'll guide you through the process for Klyde Warren Park, White Rock Lake, and other popular spots.

What happens if there's extreme heat on my event day?

Texas summers are intense. We coordinate with venues for shaded serving areas, tents, or indoor alternatives. Your event manager will discuss weather contingencies before your event.

How many guests can one food truck serve?

A single truck typically serves 75-150 guests comfortably within a 2-hour window. For larger DFW corporate events or weddings, we coordinate multiple trucks to ensure fast service and variety. We've catered events with 1,500+ guests across the Metroplex.

Do trucks travel across the entire Metroplex?

Yes! Our vendors serve from Fort Worth to Plano, Irving to Garland, and everywhere in between. Travel fees may apply for locations far from a truck's home base, typically $50-150. We'll factor this into your quote.

Can I book multiple trucks for variety?

Absolutely! Multi-truck events are popular in DFW. Having BBQ alongside tacos, plus a dessert truck, gives guests options and keeps lines short. We coordinate timing and placement so everything runs seamlessly.

What's the minimum order for Dallas events?

Most DFW trucks have minimums ranging from $500-$1,500 or 30-50 guests, depending on the vendor and timing. Premium trucks and weekend events may have higher minimums. We'll match you with trucks that fit your budget.
