CHRISTUS Health SETX (Beaumont, West Beaumont, Orange, and Mid County) thoroughly enjoyed partnering with Food Truck Club for our 2026 Hospital Week celebration. All vendors arrived early, operations ran smoothly, and most importantly our associates were left smiling from ear to ear. Thank you for helping us make this 2026 Hospital Week both memorable and one of the most talked-about celebrations yet. We truly appreciate your partnership and look forward to working together again!

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 Houston, 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 Cinco De Mayo when you book.
Space needed

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

What does Cinco De Mayo serve?
Cinco De Mayo serves Tacos, Mexican and Latin.Popular menu items include 3 Authentic Street Tacos / Beans and Rice, 3 Authentic Street Tacos and Quesadilla plate and 4 Authentic Street Tacos.Most servings run about $20 before tax. The full menu with current prices is above.
Is there a minimum order or guest count?
Yes, Cinco De Mayo has a minimum order of $938, which works out to roughly 47 servings at this menu's prices. This minimum covers essential costs including food preparation, staffing and setup time. For smaller gatherings, consider the attendee-pay option where guests purchase their own meals.
What is included in the catering price?
Your quote from Cinco De Mayo includes food preparation, serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), the truck's staff, and setup and breakdown. Some trucks charge a travel fee depending on how far the venue is; the truck will let you know if one applies. 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 Cinco De Mayo?
Fifteen to thirty days gives you the best shot at your first-choice date, and shorter timelines work too. Cinco De Mayo typically answers a request within 4 hours, so you'll know quickly whether the date is open. Food trucks in Houston 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 Cinco De Mayo cater?
Recent bookings through Food Truck Club include a 70-guest catered event in Houston (August 2026) and a 60-guest catered event in Houston (May 2026), out of 30 events catered so far. Corporate lunches, employee appreciation days, community festivals, school and university events, and private celebrations around Houston are all bookable from this page.
Where does Cinco De Mayo serve?
Cinco De Mayo is based in Houston, TX and takes bookings across Austin, Brazoria, Chambers, Colorado, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Matagorda, Walker, Waller and Wharton Counties. Some trucks charge a travel fee depending on how far the venue is, so include the full event address in your request and the truck will let you know if one applies. For a venue outside this area, the truck will confirm whether it can make the trip.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-conscious options?
Cinco De Mayo lists halal options, vegetarian options and gluten-free 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 Cinco De Mayo 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.
