About CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck

You can smell the spice and hear the line before you see us, the scent pulling neighbors toward the window for tacos, skewers, and our take on Creole favorites. I run CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck, serving gluten-free Mexican, fusion, and American dishes that show up on festival menus and in boxed lunches for corporate events. People come for the Flamingo Chicken and our veggie tacos, and they come back for consistent portions and clear labeling for vegan, dairy-free, halal, and gluten-free needs. I cater on site and prepare boxed lunches that travel well to meetings and neighborhood gatherings. Reviews and local coverage have highlighted our role in Chicago’s gluten-free scene, and you’ll find our truck at community festivals and private events across the city. Minoritized- and woman-owned, we keep service straightforward and focused on feeding groups with dietary options that are easy to order. Stop by the window and grab a plate, or book us for a single catered lunch or an event where one reliable menu works for everyone.

When to Book

Recommended lead time
15–30 days before your event

The further ahead you book, the more trucks you'll have to choose from. Planning ahead is the best way to secure your top pick.

That said, shorter timelines work too—we book events just days out all the time. You'll just have fewer options to choose from.

Busy seasons: Spring and Fall are our most popular times in Chicago, so booking early gives you the best selection.

Venue & Setup Requirements

Usually self-contained
Most trucks bring their own power and water. Confirm any hookups with CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck when you book.
Space needed

A flat, accessible parking spot—typically 12' × 25' for most trucks

The per-serving prices on this page already include Food Truck Club's service fee; sales tax is added and the complete total is shown before you confirm.
How far in advance should I book CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck?
Fifteen to thirty days gives you the best shot at your first-choice date, and shorter timelines work too. Food trucks in Chicago book up fastest in spring and fall, and events with 100+ guests benefit from a little extra notice for menu planning and staffing.
What types of events does CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck cater?
Recent bookings through Food Truck Club include a 150-guest school or university event in Chicago (September 2026) and a 90-guest private event in Chicago (September 2026), out of 3 events catered so far. Corporate lunches, employee appreciation days, community festivals, school and university events, and private celebrations around Chicago are all bookable from this page.
Where does CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck serve?
CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck is based in Chicago, IL and takes bookings across Cook, DuPage, Will, McHenry, Grundy, Kane, Kendall, DeKalb and Lake Counties. Travel inside that area is part of the quote; for a venue outside it, submit the request and the truck will confirm whether it can make the trip.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-conscious options?
CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck lists vegetarian options, vegan options, gluten-free options, dairy-free options and halal options on its profile. Include a count for each in your booking request so the truck preps enough, and flag any allergies at the same time.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
Usually not. Most food trucks arrive with their own generator, water tank, and cooking equipment, so a flat, accessible parking spot of roughly 12 by 25 feet is all they need. Some trailers and dessert carts do run on an outlet, so mention what your venue offers and CheSa’s Gourmet Food Truck will confirm any hookups before the event.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
Rescheduling is the usual answer when weather turns, and we work with you and the truck to find a date. If the event has to be cancelled, the refund follows the cancellation policy above.
