The Most Delicious Food Trucks in Indianapolis

Las Tortugas Food Truck & Catering

★★★★★ 5 (11) • $

"This truck was outside of grand junction and we decided to eat it for dinner.The guys working was nice and fast.The food was amazing.Loved the guacamole.I got some tacos and a quesadilla and it hit the spot."

Lulu's Tacos

★★★★☆ 4.4 (50)

"There is an awful lot to like about Lulu's Tacos (besides tacos). Fast and friendly service, a wide variety of dishes you won't find at many Mexican places, a reasonable cost, etc. Have been here a few times now while in town for work and have always left thinking that I can't wait to come back.Each time I've had the tacos (Pastor) with the green sauce on the side. Just enough punch to the meat and sauce to make for a slightly spicy affair. Many other items on the menu that I haven't tried but would certainly be in here much more often if I was closer. Love this place."

The Lonely Monkey Food Truck

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (9)

"I've always said that food trucks have the best food around and this place just furthers my point. I got a Hawaiian burger today and it was phenomenal. I love the burgers from Kuma's corner and this burger is just as good as any of the burgers I've had from Kuma's at half the cost. Their menu had several different burgers, some hotdogs, and a lot of fried options like french fries funnel cakes and monkey ears. Can't wait to go back and try something else"

The Kickstand

★★★★☆ 4.3 (4) • $

"This Food truck/trailer is awesome ! They over deliver on taste on everything I've tried ( 6+ different food items).The owners are super friendly and hard working. You'll find them on FB announcing where they will be next, time and what food they will be selling."

Beach Bum Barbecue

★★★★★ 4.5 (22) • $$$

"I've been following this place on social media ever since bookmarking them on Yelp. But because I live outside Indy, my schedule never had me in the right part of town on the right date. Fortunately, I had the opportunity to catch up with them at a Milkshake IPA party at Guggman Haus where BBBq was providing the food. So glad I did!The folks in the truck were cranking out the sandwiches quickly. I ordered the Chopped Brisket and the Ric Flair Sandwich. The sandwiches aren't cheap, but they don't taste cheap either. The brisket was not shredded, but somehow the large chunks of juicy (with a hint of char) beef mostly stayed inside the bun. The flavor? Excellent. They also have four kinds of BBQ sauce to add (a hot sauce, a sweet, a Carolina mustard, and a mango.) The meat has a lot of flavor on its own, but dialing it in with the sauces can really take it to another level.The Ric Flair was a pulled pork sandwich topped with a creamy, yet tangy coleslaw and sliced pickles. I have to admit that this one is messy. The thickly loaded sandwich is challenging to keep together and you may end up wearing a bit if you aren't careful. But the flavor? Again, it was delicious. Be sure to grab lots of napkins and possibly a fork because I am certain there will be some tasty bits that spill out onto the paper tray the sandwich is served in.Excellent food. Friendly and quick service. And I found out that they are getting close to opening their brick and mortar store in Washington Square Mall in the Fall of 2019. They will be on the northwest side of the mall building.I am glad I finally found a time and location for meeting up with this food truck. I am looking forward to the new stationary spot to open.Review #2901"

Tacos Without Borders

★★★★☆ 4.4 (26) • $

"I went for the three tacos for $10 deal. I ordered the chili chicken, Tex Mex, and Greek gyro, and they were ready in about a minute. They were pretty messy so I was glad I was at a table with napkins handy. I found each taco okay. To be honest, I was a bit disappointed. The chili chicken had good flavor but some of the chicken pieces were so big they required more than one bite, which is awkward in a taco. The Tex Mex seemed like a taco I'd make at home. The Greek was fine, and I could pretend I was eating the meat on a pita. The tacos weren't bad by any means, but they didn't dazzle me, either. They did make for a filling meal to last me through the afternoon."

R&R Extreme Wings

★★★★☆ 3.9 (147) • $

"Good spot for wings, sauces are tasty and there are plenty to pick from. I like the mild Buffalo. Good value for the price, lunch and daily specials are also pretty good. Only thing keeping the facility from five stars would be that sometimes wait times can vary. I find ordering wings is quicker than tenders. (Which is fine.. but would be nice to know upfront) I recommend placing your order online, then go pick it up. The facility itself is a little dated and could use some freshening up."

Taste of Cholulas

★★★★☆ 4.3 (11)

"Stopped by this taco truck late last night and was glad I did. The food was fresh, hot and delicious. The man at the window was helpful and friendly. I would suggest getting the carne asada tacos or the soft meat tacos, both were delicious. The food was prepared fast and in the time it took to get back to my house the food was still hot. I noticed that they stay open later than most restaurants, that is definitely a plus in my book! Will be back for sure!"

J's Lobster Food Truck

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (38)

"Got the notice via Facebook that J's Lobster Food Truck would be at the Zionsville, IN Lowe's parking lot and I had to check them out. Their hours for this location was 5p-7p and we got there at 6:40 and the line was already forming. People I had talked to in line hadn't tried them before and also heard about the event on FB. The wait was well worth it and fresh seafood was phenomenal! I personally had the Crab Mac and Crab Roll, while the wife had Shrimp Tacos and an order of Hispanic Puppies. Everything was great and we'll definitely check them out again, as well as their brick and mortar location. The food was hot, still warm by the time we got home, good portions and for the money it was worth it and the service was very good too! We were also given a business card that was good for 20% off our next purchase. I've done a Facebook post on the J's Lobster Truck and many have commented on it. I really hope the truck makes this location at least a once per quarter stop if not more. Also if I may say, a permanent location in Whitestown would be ideal!"

Fresko

★★★★★ 4.8 (10)

"After several attempts to eat here during the lunch hour, I was able to finally arrive on a day they were open (my biggest complaint is that even though I checked their posted hours, the lights were off. The good news is that I am glad I kept giving Fresko a try. I ordered the Beef Lasagna which was really tasty and though a bit pricey, I received a generous quantity of enjoyable pasta. The lasagna was so tender that I didn't even need the knife to cut it. Fork tender and nicely seasoned ground beef with a red sauce that was balanced between sweet and salty. I would gladly return to see what other items might win me over. You can get orders to go or make use of the open seating of the Amp food court. Get there early to find some free parking on Gent St.Review #3962"

Smokey Blue

★★★★☆ 4.4 (14)

"Smokey Blue has some of the best BBQ in town. The meat was so good, tender, and packed with flavor that it could stand on its own without any kind of sauce. BUT... their sauces are incredible. I like some heat and the Blue Heat BBQ sauce really packed a punch of flavor and heat. I know this is a BBQ truck with awesome meat and sides but don't sleep on their dessert. If you ever find them with their smoked apple pie, you're going to want to order that and an extra for when you're sad the first one is gone.Can't recommend them enough to cater your event, bring their food truck or just find them around town for a lunch or dinner. Also, the owner, Craig, seems like a super great guy with a passion for food!"

Mitchell's Mexican Grill

★★★★☆ 4.2 (24) • $

"The first time I tried their food truck I was hooked. Once I realized they have a location in Delphi, I was super excited. Everything from their burritos to their salads are delicious! Their southwest salad is my favorite. Don't forget to ask for taco sauce to complete your meal. If you haven't tried this place you are missing out big time! They get pretty busy during lunch times and I wish their drive thru was a little bigger. Otherwise, everything from the quality of food to the quality of staff is excellent!"

Lucia’s Taqueria

★★★★☆ 4.4 (11) • $$

"A great place for Mexican food! A wonderful atmosphere with very friendly service. They made my dad and I feel right at home. The tamales were excellent and my dad said the chili rellanos were amazing too. Very clean and accommodating. Will be back for sure"

Paul's Kitchen

★★★★★ 5 (6)

"I happened across Chef Paul's food trucks 30th and Broadway on Monday night and wow what a great find!The noodles are thick hearty and filling. The veggies were grilled perfectly as well as the salmon. I could only eat half. For breakfast I fried an egg and put it on top and again was filling and oh so good!It came with a spicy sauce and a sweet cream my sauce in separate containers which I like so you can add as much as fits your taste. Everything was flavorful and cooked perfectly"

Dashboard Food Truck

★★★★★ 5 (5)

"We love Revery, but with kids and schedules as they are, it's not always practical to make it over there. So what if they came to us?Enter Dashboard Food Truck.Not the full menu obviously, but the same quality. The Rev Burger is absolutely phenomenal. The cheese curds are great, but what makes them extra special is the dipping sauce - mostly ranch but with a little BBQ sauce mixed in. So good.There are also daily specials, so you never know exactly what's going to show up.Lately they've been hanging out in the old Marsh parking lot at 135 and Stones Crossing a few days a week, but they can be found all around town. Follow them on Facebook for the most up to date information on where they'll be and what specials they'll offer that day.You can also order ahead online which is GREAT, but my only complaint is that you can't really customize anything at all when ordering online. It's nice that they have a plain hamburger or plain cheeseburger as items on the menu, it would be great if you could order the specials without a specific item--like a tenderloin without mustard, etc. You can probably order it this way in person (haven't tried!) but just not online."

The Chili Hut

★★★★★ 4.5 (35) • $

"I was fortunate to attend an education event that had booked the chili hut for some parking lot eats, and I was also fortunate enough that the organizers paid for me to try whatever I wanted.The owners, with full pride in their product, recommended I try the fully loaded 5 way. It was good, even as someone that doesn't really go hard on Cincinnati chili. Their sauce was great, had a good amount of meat and freshly diced onions for piquant bursts here and there, crisp jalapenos for spice, topped with a mound of freshly grated cheese. If I wanted to be really picky I'd say I didn't love the spaghetti, but it's really just a vehicle to deliver the sauce and cheese right? As I said, someone else paid so I can't speak to the price (and that seems to be the main detraction), but the food and folk are worth 5"

Serendipity Mobile Catering

★★★★☆ 4.4 (39) • $$

"Serendipity was at the Speedway's Food Truck Fridays at Daredevil Brewery. This was our first Food Truck Friday's at Daredevil Brewery. Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate at 44 degrees and rain. However, I really wanted to try the crab cakes and truffle fries so we ignored the weather.All the positive reviews are not wrong! The crab cakes and truffle fries were phenomenal! The crab cakes had very little filler, cooked perfectly and delicious! The truffle fries were also amazing!! I loved the crispy fries and the unique flavor. Not only was the food excellent but the presentation was gorgeous. Not what I expected from a food truck. The owners were super friendly, appreciated I'd seen them on Indy Style and reassured me I'd love my order. I wish they had a storefront. We were lucky enough to take our meals into the Daredevil Brewery to escape the brutal outdoor elements. Their my husband had the Daredevil Octoberfest beer. I look forward to Food Truck Friday returning to Daredevils once Spring returns."

Huge Impact Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.8 (45) • $$

"My first visit was AMAZING! The staff was super friendly, from me walking in the door.. Until I walked out. I have more food items I want to try when I come back. Like the loaded salad. However, on this trip, I ordered the loaded baked potato with added tomatoes and a small order of fried green tomatoes. The loaded potato was reasonably sized. Not a big Idaho baker, but it also was not a small russet. I ordered steak as my protein. I was a bit disheartened, that they didn't have actual steak slivers. Instead, they had shaved steak. Granted, I like shaved steak.. But I like it as a Philly steak. In addition, some people love nacho cheese on their potatoes.. I don't. I just enjoy a melted shredded cheese. The fried green tomatoes were DELICIOUS! I would like to order 20,000 more. To sum it all up, the food was good! Just because I like my potato a certain way, and I read more into the menu without asking for more details, won't stop me from coming back..and don't let it stop you either."

BB&B Bread Truck

★★★★★ 4.5 (48)

"These guys were posted outside 16 bit slanging Korea dogs so it looked promising. I was more in the sweet tooth side so I got their brioche donuts. You can choose 3 different flavors for 9 bucks. The marshmello one was awesome with giant marshmello melted on the outside. So soft and chewy definitely give their donuts a try if you're craving something sweet :)"

Tony Taco Truck

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"Denver NC is finally getting upscale. We have a Mexican food truck with fresh made tacos, tamales, quesadilla and fabulous sauces. I saw a food truck on highway 73 with picnic benches and a long line of Hispanic workers waiting to buy lunch. A really good sign for good food at a great price. I stopped by later in the day to buy some food to take home. Got the street tacos, chicken, carne asada, lingua and tamales. The tamales come wrapped in banana leaves like they do in Southern Mexico. They were just like eating in Coatzacalcos. What makes everything that is already great to fabulous is the sauces. The red sauce is hot above jalapeno but below habanero. It is full of flavor but be ready for heatThe owner runs the Mexican grocery and the truck, so if you get there and don't see a someone in the truck, pop your head in the grocery front door and someone will come out to make the food fresh.Go get some real Mexican food, not the bland stuff found in our Mexican restaurants in Denvet. Hours are 9 am to 9 pm."

Scout's Treat Truck

★★★★☆ 4.4 (21) • $$

"WOW. Chocolate and peanut butter cupcake, absolutely the best cupcake I've ever had in my life. And just about the most decadent dessert I've ever had, period. Unbelievably rich, gooey, moist, mind-bending explosion of sugary flavor. It was so intense that I really don't know how I ate the whole thing, not to mention how I did it without a glass of milk nearby ... but I simply couldn't stop shoveling it in my face.Scout's has changed my mind on the whole cupcake fad. I had previously been disappointed with other cupcakeries around town - they always seemed like something I could easily make at home. But this Scout's cupcake? Yes, I'll gladly pay whatever you tell me it costs. And I'll now seek out your truck whenever I need a ridiculously rich cupcake fix."

El Buen Sabor Mi Linda

★★★★☆ 3.7 (3)

"I used to love to come to this food truck. Have been getting stuff for many months and usually there's a lady that works there. She's probably late 20s always very friendly very nice and I know my cost. She says the Pupusas are $3.85 apiece no matter the flavor, so today I went up and Another younger lady was there and I ordered five and she overcharged me by $5.22. I hate non-itemized bills because then you can't tell anything. the food is good but not $5.22 overcharge. This is a rip off and I don't think I will ever be back."

Taste of the Caribbean

★★★☆☆ 3 (21) • $$

"Truth time!! There are so many tastes of the carribbean that one could fall in love with: RumRumWhite RumMore RUmRedRumNo, not that last one, but surely great and tasty things come from the islands. Albeit, especially rum...which, in many places was at one point currency, for things like more rum. So anyting "Jerk" or a good ol' chicken "cook up" with plantains on the side, rice and peas, paella, civeche, chutney, spices, peppers...I forgot exactly what I was saying because I sort of got lost thinking about how much food I could probably eat that taste carribbean. Let's be honest since it's truth time!! I would eat a bowl full of beach sand if it were authentic tasting of the CARIBBEEAAAN! GAAH! So naturally, when I hopped in line for this truck, I was like, Yes yusss omg yaaay and did a few kick butt dance moves until it was my time to order. I was slightly thrown off at the fact that the prices (for not so heaping portions) were roughly $8-15. Then I thought maybe it's because of all the stewing TLC that is poured into this type of food... I've been cooking for 20 years and eating for 800 (slight exaggeration) nothing complexifies me more than island fair. Maybe the varying techniques at times take hours due to the multicultural influences. Or the fact that I'm ret to eat...so devoting hours or days to one dish is not my fav thing. Ha, I have a list of fav things it's so much: EV. VER. RY THING. *Taste* could very well, be a favorite too. I say could and I really mean still can. However, the mac and cheese lacked flavor (taste bud issues see previous review), the chicken pieces were a lil dry, and the rice was possibly undercooked. I'm going to give these guys all the b.o.t.d. because this early in the am I would be cooking nothing but zzzzz's in my bed. After reheating my meal the next day, it was pretty delicious. I enjoyed it enough the second time to hope for a third. The truck is convenient, and cashier is really cute and nice! I gotta run into this place soon, for another island fix. Overall, I'm thinking with a little rum this truck could steal your heart...pirate's of the carribbean style...yes??? Ok I'll stop."

Birrieria Iturbidense

★★★★★ 4.5 (51) • $$

"I recently checked out this spot and had a seriously good time! I tried the Esquite Dog, which was really tasty, but it was the Fat Boy Birria Dog that stole the show. That dog was loaded with flavor, and the Birria tacos alongside were just as amazing--tender, juicy, and with that perfect hint of spice. I could sip on the consume all day! The only tiny hiccup was the horchata--it was a bit on the sweet side for my taste, but still enjoyable.Yes, it's a bit on the pricey side, but considering the quality and taste of the food, it's kind of worth every penny. Definitely recommend for a delicious treat!"

Hoosier Roots

★★★★★ 4.5 (42)

"My bff wanted to come here for her birthday, so I packed up and headed west. HR sits back off Main St (Hwy 136) in a small, nondescript building just behind the liquor store. Don't blink or you'll miss it! Entrance is on the west side of the building. I knew I was in the right place when a very friendly employee greeted me and asked me how many were in our party. It's a smallish dining space, but they do have a small bar and long wooden tables that look like they would hold at least 10 people each. Seems like a fun place to have a special event! Our waitress was quite attentive and friendly, helping us navigate the menu and make some choices. Note: the entrees are served family style! She and another friendly patron at the bar described their house wine drinks (of which you can choose a flight to try them all). We opted to start with drinks, fried pickles and the charcuterie board. For our main entrees we chose the fried chicken and gnocchi with a side of jalapeño mac and cheese. The charcuterie board was amazing with a variety of meats, cheeses, olives, hummus, veggies, Dijon mustard and toasted baguette slices. A little secret about the pickles: they're sweet (and delicious)! When the entrees arrived we were even more impressed, especially by the gnocchi. My friend's hubby said they reminded him of an herbed dumpling, and that's a true statement. They were so tender and melted in your mouth! I didn't try the chicken, and my pic doesn't do it justice, but everyone else devoured it, as well. The mac & cheese was also unique in that it had a great jalapeño flavor without a ton of heat. The cheese sauce, wow! Just like my gma used to make.They were even so nice as to let us eat our own bday cake at the end of our meal! We rolled out of there satisfied and truly happy to have tried this gem of a place. They also offer catering services. I, for one would be thrilled if someone told me they were bringing HR's food in for a meal!"

Pico De Gallo

★★★★★ 4.6 (8) • $

"This was a great find! It's a bit hidden in a small shopping strip, but it's a good inexpensive taqueria that's worth a second trip. They serve a warm soup with every meal. How can you not like that! The tacos had great flavor, with the basics (cilantro and onion) or supreme (lettuce, tomato, and cheese) and the burritos were filling. Don't forget to ask for beans and rice on the side."

Mi Lindo Pénjamo Food Truck

★★★★☆ 3.5 (6)

"This is the ABSOLUTE best for Birria Tacos!!! I am craving them now but they are only open on Fridays and Saturdays! The steak is amazing and the consume' is out of this world! Customer service is amazing!"

Just Jerks, Ena's Jamaican Grill

★★★★☆ 4.3 (98) • $

"Thank you Just Jerks for coming to my work today for lunch service! Your truck is very clean and the employees working were quick and very nice. I ordered the jerk chicken island and the fried plantains, they were both delicious! I'll start with the plantains. The plantains were fried perfectly with a very small amount of grease on them. They had a great mix of soft and crunch with was nice. I will definitely get them again! The jerk chicken island was AMAZING! The rice was perfect on the bottom and the flavor was incredible. I ordered it spicy and when they say spicy they ain't playing around. I LOVE SPICY FOOD! The slaw and the mango salsa on top really balanced the dish and helped cut the spice just enough. All around my lunch at the truck was great and I am very happy with my experience! GREAT JOB JUST JERKS!!!"

Brent’s Smokin’ Butts & Grill

★★★★☆ 4 (35) • $$

"Great ribs. Glad they had them. Lots of bbq seem not to, anymore. Impressive hush puppies. Happy staff, happy customer. Ice cream (soft serve) was a bonus. :-)"

Paco's Taqueria

★★★★★ 4.7 (3)

"Very good food here I would highly recommend going here and the value and quantity of food that you get for the price that you pay is an amazing amount. The staff is also very respectful and nice and The restaurant is very clean so are The bathrooms."

Indy Porkopolis BBQ

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (7)

"Ate at the food truck. Order was prepared quick and employees friendly, but I'd probably only order the fries again. They were tasty!I got the brisket sandwich which was just OK. It came on an el.cheapo white bun like I was getting a chicken patty at my elementary school cafeteria. And maybe it's common but the brisket was thick slabs with a lot of fat. Usually I've had brisket that seemed more tender or was sliced differently. And the sandwich really needed a little bit of flare like a pickle slice, some onions or a spicier BBQ sauce option.Maybe I picked the wrong meat to try but for the price, quantity, quality I'll probably try a different meat next time and if that doesn't excite me, I will probably give up."

Muay Thai Mobile Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.2 (33) • $

"This is my fav Thai place of all places. I love the Thai Basil Chicken(formerly spicy basil chicken). The service is always great. Anytime I see them in our area I stop...sometimes its dinner.If you see them GO!!!"

Gather Around BBQ

★★★★☆ 4.2 (64)

"We just love this place! We there quite often but today my review is for their catering service. We used them this weekend for a rehearsal dinner for our son's wedding. It was so good and everyone enjoyed it so much. We knew our bbq would be great as always but the Mac n cheese was over the top good. People kept going back for it! But for me the star of the show was the apple crisp dessert. Wow! You really need to stop in and try this. I'll be getting this on a regular basis now! Great job to the catering crew, the cooks, mgrs, and the owners Kevin and Melissa. You guys make Martinsville proud! Keep up the great work!"

Gaucho's Fire Express

★★★★☆ 4.4 (82) • $

"My work is currently looking for new options for food trucks. Gauchos was mentioned and it just so happened they'd be close to my home for a food truck Friday. I stopped in and loved their selections! I went with the Brazilian steak on a bed of lettuce. Portions were huge and it was so good. If I could eat the bread, I can only imagine how much better it would be. The staff were so friendly! We will definitely look to book them in the future!"

Johnsons BBQ Shack

★★★★☆ 4.3 (207) • $

"BBQ is pretty good.. but honestly, almost prefer their takeout over eating in the restaurant. We ended up coming for a late fathers day dinner and I was really hoping for an ice cold beer. Unfortunately, their liquor license didn't get renew, so no beer for dad and I. I ended up with a brisket sandwich and mac n cheese. Both were good, with great flavor. Wife had the pork nachos, full size. Good amount of food overall, we enjoyed them for lunch the next day too. Kids had a hot dog, drink and chips. They were fine, $8 for the kids meal possibly? Overall, a fine experience.. but this food travels well enough, take it home and enjoy your back patio, additional sides and own booze."
