Dave Castaneda - owner of Green Chili Love

Meet The Owner, Dave Castaneda

Dave Castaneda, the owner and chef of Green Chile Love, hails from Colorado, where green chili was a staple in his household. After moving to Arizona in 1989, he found it challenging to locate authentic stewed green chili made with Hatch peppers, prompting him to recreate these cherished family recipes himself. Sharing his homemade dishes with friends and family, and serving them at football tailgates, led to the realization that there was a demand for this unique cuisine in Phoenix. In 2018, Dave launched the Green Chile Love food truck to bring the flavors of his upbringing to the local community. After 22 years in the corporate world, he left his career in 2022 to focus entirely on the food truck, honoring his late father with this decision. Dave's dedication to sourcing authentic ingredients, including making trips to Hatch, New Mexico, for fresh peppers, ensures that every dish reflects the rich culinary traditions of his heritage.

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 Phoenix, so booking early gives you the best selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our team.

How far in advance should I book the food truck?
We recommend booking Green Chili Love at least 2-4 weeks before your event date. Food trucks in Phoenix book quickly during peak seasons (Spring and Fall), so earlier is always better. For large corporate events with 100+ guests, 30 days advance notice ensures menu availability and proper staffing.
What types of events do you cater?
Green Chili Love caters corporate lunches, office parties, employee appreciation events, team building gatherings, company picnics, community festivals, university events, government functions, holiday parties, and private celebrations throughout Phoenix and surrounding areas.
Is there a minimum order or guest count?
Yes, Green Chili Love has a minimum order of $875.00. This minimum covers essential costs including food preparation, staffing, travel to your Phoenix location, and setup time. For smaller gatherings, consider our attendee-pay option where guests purchase their own meals.
What is included in the catering price?
Your catering quote from Green Chili Love includes fresh food preparation, all serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), professional staff, setup and breakdown, and travel within the Phoenix service area. Pricing is transparent with no hidden fees—you'll see the complete cost including taxes before confirming your booking.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
No utilities required. Green Chili Love is completely self-sufficient with onboard generators, water tanks, and cooking equipment. Simply provide a flat, accessible parking spot (approximately 12x30 feet) and we handle everything else. This makes food truck catering ideal for outdoor venues, parking lots, parks, and locations without kitchen facilities.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
We always try our best to work with you (and the truck) the best we can. Rescheduling is the best option when weather hits but our cancellation policy is outlined above.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free options?
We always try to cater to the customer's needs. Please reach out with specific dietary requests and we'll do our best to accommodate them.
Are there allergy-conscious meals available?
Yes, we accommodate allergy needs whenever possible. Please reach out with specific requirements and we'll work with you to ensure safe meal options for all guests.
