GT Catering & Events

Gastrotruck was a perfect fit for our wedding and we couldn’t be happier working with Catherine and her amazing team. From the first tasting meetings to the final menu selection, our process was seamless and more importantly the food was delicious! Our guests enjoyed unique sliders and hors d'oeuvres made from locally sourced ingredients and it’s a testament to their quality that the food disappeared fast. Catherine was a pleasure to worth with and an equally valuable resource to help coordinate the day’s timeline and open bar beverage estimates. We’re so happy to have had Gastrotruck at our wedding, the food was a big part of our vision and they delivered!

My husband and I really wanted to do a unique customized dinner. After researching like crazy, we finally came upon Gastrotruck and as soon as we spoke with them we knew that we were done looking. They helped us to customize a menu, and met with us several times to make sure we had everything that we were looking for. Nina and Catherine were both SUPER responsive, which I really appreciated. We worked primarily with Nina, who is so kind and helpful! She ended up being a part of the staff serving at our wedding, and I was so happy to see her there after all of the work we did to put together the menu. We also did our dessert through Angel Food, and it was so easy to organize through Gastrotruck. I honestly cannot recommend Gastrotruck more. People are still talking about how much they loved the food at our wedding :)

We had Gastrotruck do a drop-off taco bar for our wedding and we're so glad we did! The food was absolutely delicious and there was plenty of it. The tacos were a lot of fun and they include a lot of great toppings. They set up the buffet beautifully and were on time, professional, and did a great job. We worked with Nina and she was super helpful, responsive, and answered all of our questions. She was very up-front with pricing and helped us figure out everything from quantity, dietary restrictions, timing, etc. Overall us and our guests loved the food, the price was very reasonable, and they were great to work with!

After our first meeting with Catherine we were so excited and booked instantly. The food was great and we loved the idea of having a food truck at our wedding. Catherine was so easy to work with and so nice! About a month before the wedding we received our quote with the items we selected at the food tasting and several items were higher than on our original quote. Getting everything squared away took way too many emails and brought unnecessary stress just a few weeks before the wedding. On our wedding day we were expecting to have real silverware (not plastic) and glassware, both of which were not at our wedding. The silverware was a communication issue... we had asked about it during the tasting and were told it would be there (the manager made it seem like a standard item), but it was an up charge that we were not aware of. The glassware was apparently at the venue, but did not get used (still not really sure what happened). Also, food service ran 30+ minutes longer than usual, which meant we had to rearrange our agenda as we had guests outside at the truck when we were suppose to be doing toasts/speeches. Overall we really liked the food and the vibe of the food truck. Communication could have been better. A menu that clearly lists all food options and prices would have also been nice to have. The missing items and slow service was a bummer. Hopefully these things get fixed, but I have to rate GT 3/5 based on our experience.

Incredible. We had such a great experience with Gastrotruck. The food was awesome, and the staff was just as wonderful. They went over and above to make sure things went smoothly the day of and leading up to the wedding. And Nina from Gastrotruck was phenomenal. She was so organized, always ready to answers my many questions, flexible and beyond helpful. They went out of their way for us, and we love them for it. Can't recommend them enough.

I can not recommend the Gastrotruck team more highly. I had a vision of the kind of reception I wanted and talked with 8 local catering companies - none of which came close to matching my vision - until I connected with Catherine from Gastrotruck. Not only did she write the most thorough and thoughtful proposal, including a drafted floor plan, coordination of all rentals, set up, tear down and staff, she respected my budget and NAILED the concept we wanted. The food was absolutely incredible, beautifully arranged and displayed, and our guests are still talking about it. Catherine, Chef Stephen and the entire team were an absolute dream to work with. When we found ourselves in a bit of a bind for our rehearsal dinner a couple of weeks (gasp) before the wedding, Catherine & the team were able to cater it on the fly. Gastrotruck pricing is extremely competitive and the entire process was so wonderful and easy I'd hire them again in a heartbeat. Brides, Gastrotruck will make your life SO MUCH easier as you plan and execute the wedding of your dreams. The outstanding food quality and service are a complete bonus.

Catherine and the team at Gastro Truck were seriously the best to work with when it came to catering our wedding. They were flexible on what we were eating, the style of everything and answered our questions throughout the planning process. They worked closely with our coordinator and executed our wedding day flawlessly. Also, the mac and cheese bar was a hit with EVERYONE. So much that people went up for seconds, thirds, and fourths. Lastly, we had breakfast sandwiches for late night food and IT WAS THE BEST THING EVER.

Our food was AMAZING! All of our guests complimented the food selections. Gastrotruck was able to customize the experience to our wedding and our budget. I can't speak highly enough of them - the staff is well prepared, professional, and uses high-quality ingredients.

Gastrotruck was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding last weekend. Not only were they able to accommodate my now-wife's severe gluten intolerance in ways we didn't even expect, all the guests RAVED about the food. Dad said it was the best wedding food he ever tasted. New brother-in-law ran up to us during the reception with a taco clutched in each hand to tell us the "food truck was the BEST. IDEA. EVER." You get the picture. I think everyone went through the line two or three times, and several guests asked where to find Gastrotruck so they could go eat more of their food at a later date. My favorite thing about working with Gastrotruck was the potential for customizing the menu, everywhere. When we sent over our list of food we wanted to try for the tasting, I explained that some of the choices contained gluten and that I would try them but my partner would not. Moe wrote back saying that they found a way to make everything we picked gluten-free, even using a locally sourced gluten-free beer to braise the beef brisket, plus they threw together a tequila chicken fajita thing that wasn't even on the menu, just to see what we thought. They also graciously invited us to their main location for the tasting to avoid the risk of cross-contamination. Then, when we couldn't decide between two flavor options for the brisket, Moe offered to serve it up without any sauces but provide both the sauces we liked as options for guests to customize it - basically two menu items in one. They ended up bringing a whole slew of delicious sauces that guests could add to their tacos. Later in the menu-deciding process, we were asked what kind of salsa we'd like to have served with the tortilla chips. I described the perfect salsa of my dreams, and they made it a reality on our wedding day. Wish they'd sell it in a jar, along with their Yukon gold potato salad. My wife is already talking about having a big anniversary party in ten years and getting Gastrotruck to cater it.

Food was delicious, rave reviews all around. Service was very prompt and the staff were great. Very helpful from day one to the wedding, responsive and attentive to our wishes. Cannot say enough, I would highly recommend them!

Catering was a big deal for us. We wanted passed appetizers and dinner and cupcakes but we didn't want it to be too fancy since we were getting married at a brewery. For our apps, we had apple thyme, and gruyere, goat cheese and fig jam on a crostini and thai beef salad in a cucumber cup. For dinner we had chicken with blue cheese sauce, mixed grain pilaf, cheesy potatoes with beer cheese sauce, and mixed green salad along with rolls. The chicken and the cheesy potatoes were guest favorites. The cupcakes were basically gone by the end of the night (they were so so amazing and beer-themed). We ended up going with Gastrotruck because they were used to catering in unusual places and we could also get our tables and tablecloths from them as well. They were professional and timely and everything looked beautiful. They also broke everything down and put everything away so all we had to do was bring home our gifts and decorations. We paid $300 to have Catherine help with extra stuff onsite as the event coordinator and make sure things went smoothly. Price-wise they were comparable to a little bit cheaper than others though there will be a hefty service charge that doesn't count toward tip.

Absolutely amazing. From the initial phone call I knew Gastrotruck was the place for us. Most caterers give you a list of choices for your reception, but Catherine immediately told us she would be willing to make anything we wanted. We ended up with a delicious menu including polish pierogis, pork tenderloin, an amazing mixed grain pilaf and to top it all off, made to order ice cream sandwiches! Catherine's experience in catering was so helpful in planning and executing every part of our day, and her original estimate included bartenders, without even being asked about it. If you are considering Gastrotruck for your wedding, I would say 100% go with it. You will end up with delicious, filling, healthy food that all your guests will rave about plus an amazing, courteous and helpful team of servers and cooks. A++++

Moe and Chef Steven were absolutely amazing. Our tasting was fantastic, the catering at the wedding was phenomenal. I felt so lucky to have them cater our wedding and can't say enough wonderful things about the food, the service, and of course...the Izzy's ice cream sundae bar. I heard from several of the guests that they loved speaking to Chef Steven about his dishes (especially the homemade caramel sauce) and could tell how much he loved what he did. Thanks so much to Moe, Chef Steven, and the rest of the crew at Gastrotruck...you helped make our event absolutely wonderful.

My friends and family will not stop raving about the food at my wedding! Thank you so much Gastrotruck!!! Everything you touch is simply Divine! Catherine goes above and beyond for her clients and I'm so so apreciative for her expertise and professionalism! Love Love Love

Fantastic! We did appetizers, popcorn on tables, and a seated meal. Moe quickly answered all my emails and was a breeze to work with. We had a tasting before and were able to tweak the menu to exactly what we wanted. The food was excellent and the service was excellent. Thanks!

Our guests were so excited to learn we used a food truck as our catering service. We chose to serve out of the truck (since that's the point of hiring one!) and they were able to accommodate 140-150 guests quickly and easily. We got so many compliments about our choice in sliders (blackbean, shredded beef, turkey wildrice) and even those reluctant to try our choice of sliders and sides ended up raving about them in the end.

I cannot say enough about our experience working with Gastrotruck! They absolutely blew us away and went above and beyond an expectation we ever had. My husband and I planned our wedding from Seattle, and they were more than accommodating, planning two separate tastings for us and our families while we were back visiting. Beyond that, Moe was so responsive to every little question that we had and even drove the 1.5 hours to our venue before the wedding to scope it out and make sure that everything would run smoothly. Most importantly, the food was delicious!! It was so important to us to have unique, delicious food at our wedding, and the fact that it was all locally sourced added so much to that. The best part is that they were able to serve all 150 of our guests from the truck in quite literally the blink of an eye. If we could do it all again, Gastrotruck would definitely still be our #1 food choice. They've made lifelong fans and customers out of not only us, but our friends and families!

We had an amazing experience with Gastrotruck! The food is amazing and we got so many compliments from guests. It was great to have something different as our wedding food and we got a lot of flexibility to choose things we liked. People told us it was one of the coolest eating experiences at a wedding they've had.They are big on buying local and being eco friendly which is very cool. We wondered if service would be slow with just one truck and the food being made fresh, but they were super efficient and did a great job! One of the best parts was working with Moe, our coordinator. She was so friendly, helpful, and attentive. You can tell she takes a lot of pride in the work she does and truly loves it. She came on our wedding day and worked hard. She met with us a few times before the wedding as well to make sure we got what we wanted. She responded quickly to emails and answered all our questions. I would highly recommend using them for any event or just eating at the truck. It's delicious and really fun!!

I would highly recommend Gastrotruck for your wedding catering! They have amazing food, all very fresh and made to order - no steamers, warmers... Just great tasting fresh food!! The truck is very attractive and service excellent! It's so much fun having them and they are very professional!! It's also a great value! You have no worries with Gastrotruck catering because they know what they are doing! You will not be disappointed!!

Our venue being a blank slate with no in-house anything, we had to build from scratch. We talked to a few food trucks and went to the food truck fair in uptown to test them out. Gastrotruck's food was by far the best, and it turned out they'd done a lot of weddings at our venue previously, which really put me at ease, since I wasn't sure how it would work with the space we had. Their menu had a lot of great, reasonable selections. We also purchased compostable/recyclable cups and plates from them, and had them cut our cake. They offered to also replenish our baklava platters at no additional charge, and took care of all our trash, even though it wasn't all from the food. I like that the woman we'd been working with during planning, Moe, was actually at our wedding. She was great to work with, patient as we made our selections, and sat us down at the reception and placed a ton of food in front of us, which was awesome! With all the guests you run into on the way to eat, it seems you'll never get there, and she made sure to save every option for us to taste. It was delicious! The food itself was priced well, but when it came to all the extras we'd ordered, the trash management, the service charges, tax, etc. it was not as cheap as one would expect a food truck to be. That said, their experience really paid off and service went very smoothly, and it was great that we didn't have to worry about the little things. Guests absolutely loved the food, they had lots of yummy GF/veg/vegan options, and it was so nice not to have to serve thawed chicken in bland sauce and soggy vegetables at $45/plate, like every other wedding. I'd certainly use Gastrotruck again!

This truck was at my best friend's wedding and was awesome...the food was fresh and tasty and the staff was wonderful. I LOVED that they were making the food onsite so that my little children could have a simplified version instead of needing a "kid's plate"...a crowd pleaser for SURE.

You can stop your search for a caterer - just use Gastrotruck. Good food was a priority for us, and Gastrotruck delivered that and more. We have kind of foodie friends, and they can't stop talking about how delicious everything was ("top 3 wedding meals of my life" was one comment from a chef!). They were flexible with us and helped us develop a menu that would fit our tastes and the season. They have a commitment to using seasonal ingredients, which was something we really loved. The menu was perfect for the day. We worked with Catherine who went above and beyond by coming out to do a walk-through at our venue and gave us lots of good ideas about logistics and also met with us a couple of times to make sure all the details were just right. She was professional, thorough and really fun to work with. They were also able to work with use to tailor the menu to our budget without it feeling like a "budget" menu. Loved them - I wish I could have another big event so I could use them again!

Gastrotruck satisfied everyone's hunger at our wedding. We had passed appetizers followed by a slider bar where guests ordered sliders from the food truck. The staff were professional, open to new ideas, communicated effectively, and had fun with our guests!

Gastrotruck was absolutely amazing to work with! We came to them with a budget in mind, and they didn't shy away from it at all. They went above and beyond our expectations and helped us brainstorm ways to keep the food within our budget, without it feeling like we weren't feeding our guests! At the wedding, I didn't hear one bad word from our guests about the food. Everyone absolutely loved it, and they couldn't believe how much food came out of the truck! They were extremely professional, and we would recommend them to anyone!! They completely set the party off in the direction that we wanted to go!

Catherine from GastroTruck was it! She helped us plan the layout, order the rentals, build our menu and make our day perfect! By using Gastro, we were able to have amazing, locally sourced food and a completely customized menu! The food was outstanding and our guests all RAVED about the menu! I had friends who went up to the food truck 3-4 times so they could try everything! Gastro not only offered up food truck service for our dinner, but also had apps and beverages for the cocktail hour! Love me some GastroTruck! If you want to sample their food before you book them, hang out in St. Paul (near rice park) around lunch time! :)
