Food trucks have become a major trend that has swept through the entire United States. Because they sell not so pricey meals, are perfect for people on-the-go, and sell unbelievably delicious food, one wouldn’t wonder why these restaurants on wheels have caught the attention of many Americans.

In fact, food trucks are so high in demand that there are over 20,000 of them all over the US, selling different types of food depending on your preference. Although the lines can get a bit long, sinking your teeth in yummy snacks is surely worth the wait. Take a look at the most popular food trucks in every state. 

Alabama: Tacos Dos Hermanos (Birmingham)

With so many food choices all over the US, one thing is for sure: Americans love their tacos. There are so many places in the US where Americans can buy a quality taco, but people from Birmingham, Alabama can vouch for the awesome taste of the tacos from Tacos Dos Hermanos food truck.

The line of hungry customers get pretty long every day, so getting your taco fix might take some time. However, once you take a bite out of their yummy food, you’ll surely forget how long you had to wait. 

Alaska: Yeti Dogs (Anchorage)

Aside from tacos, Americans also clearly love hot dogs. If you’re a true blue American, then you’ll surely know that hot dogs are everyone’s go-to snacks. Watch a football game in a stadium and a person selling hot dogs will surely be around.

In Anchorage, Alaska, people simply couldn’t get enough of the hot dogs from Yeti Dogs. That’s because they have a wide variety of hot dogs ranging from Alaskan reindeer sausage to jalapeño cheddar buffalo sausages. There’s plenty of flavors to choose from! 

Arizona: Emerson Fry Bread (Phoenix)

Now, although traditional food is big among the crowd, what keeps most people going are different combinations of several types of food. Phoenix, Arizona’s Emerson Fry Bread is the perfect fusion of Native American dishes and Mexican dishes.

There’s just something about the flavor of these two cuisines that makes the crowd go wild and want to come back for more. As their name implies, Emerson Fry Bread sells an entire menu of chewy deep-fried bread with different toppings, such as meat, beans, cheese, and even powdered sugar for those looking for a quick dessert. 

Arkansas: Yeyo’s (Bentonville)

You’ll definitely know if a food truck sells delicious food if they eventually put up a restaurant of their own. That was the reality for brothers Rafael and Roman Rios. Moving to Anchorage, Alaska, the siblings turned their love for food into something that other people might enjoy too. Thus, Yeyo’s was born.

And because the people of Anchorage loved the food from Yeyo’s so much, it became a big hit that a food truck simply wasn’t enough anymore to satisfy the demands of their customers. It seemed that opening a restaurant was the best thing to do.

California: Kogi (Los Angeles)

Everyone knows just how busy life is in Los Angeles, California, and this seems to be exactly the perfect spot where food trucks would become a big hit. True enough, Kogi has been running a successful business there since 2008.

Kogi is a popular name among the people of LA, and it was one of the first ever food trucks to become a big hit among the crowd. Selling Korean-Mexican fusion dishes, Kogi has become the cornerstone of delicious California street food.

Colorado: Basic Kneads Pizza (Denver)

You’ve got to admit that pizza is perhaps one of the most delicious foods that was ever introduced to mankind. Although pizza originated in Italy, word spread of just how good it is that it became known worldwide, even in America. Pizza is so good that many people have created their own versions of this yummy food.

In Denver, Colorado, there’s one pizza food truck that stands out from the rest, and that is Basic Kneads. Its founders Eric, Joel, and Reid Bakken’s special dough, made of 50 percent whole-wheat flour and aged for two days, gives their pizza a unique flavor that would make anyone crave for more. 

Connecticut: Ixtapa Mexican Tacos (New Haven)

Many Americans know that there are a lot of Mexican food places around, but only a few of them truly stand out. One of them is Ixtapa Mexican Tacos found in New Haven, Connecticut.

Once you see this bright red food truck, you’ll know why people line up for hours just to get their hands on the food they sell. Their food is so expansive that they had to use the entire truck to write down and display their menu. 

Delaware: Kapow (Northern Delaware)

If there's any cuisine that makes it to the top of anyone’s list, it would definitely be Asian cuisine. Even Americans can’t help but admit that they love it so much. One food truck in Northern Delaware has come up with a solution for Americans to be able to enjoy the best of both worlds.

Idaho: The Kilted Kod (Boise)

Fish and chips is a famous English dish, but that doesn’t stop Americans from getting a bite out of it. The simplicity of the dish and the complexity of its taste is perhaps what made it so famous in England and even in other countries.

In Boise, Idaho, the Kilted Kod food truck’s fish and chips will surely take you on a tour to Great Britain without having to leave the US. The fish and chips that they serve are made of quality ingredients, such as Alaskan cod, and are freshly cooked each day to satisfy their customers’ fish and chips cravings. 

Illinois: The Fat Shallot (Chicago)

Having a background in whipping up the most delicious gourmet dishes, husband and wife Sam Barron and Sarah Weitz decided they wanted to make something a lot less complicated which many people can still enjoy. That’s when they decided to open the Fat Shallot in Chicago, Illinois in 2013.

The food they serve might consist of seemingly simple sandwiches, but the couple added some gourmet elements to make their customers’ eating experience a bit more special. For instance, they serve a grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough bread with Muenster cheese, sautéed spinach, and caramelized onions.

Indiana: Gaucho’s Fire (Indianapolis)

Gaucho’s Fire in Indianapolis is anything but ordinary. If you think you can only get quality steaks from fancy restaurants, then you probably haven’t come across Gaucho’s yet.

They found out that people couldn’t care less about the ambiance of where they eat their food as long as it's delicious. Although simple on the outside, people couldn’t help but frequent Waabs because of their smoked brisket which they serve on a couple of soft bread, slathered with barbecue sauce, pickles and onions. It’s a total dream come true!

Kansas: The Flying Stove (Wichita)

It is a fact that most people get easily bored when served up with the same thing over and over again. The Flying Stove in Wichita, Kansas eventually figured this out and decided to mix things up with their menu. What makes people keep coming back to this food truck is not just their sumptuous meals, but its variety.

We’re not talking about just different types of flavor for their sandwiches. When we say variety, we mean their menu changes every single week. Having a different menu is quite difficult for any food business to pull off, but The Flying Stove made it look extremely easy. 

Kentucky: The Traveling Kitchen (Louisville)

Greatly inspired by the Kogi truck in Los Angeles, California, The Traveling Kitchen has been serving up their own version of Korean-fusion cuisine to the people of Louisville, Kentucky since 2011. The Traveling Kitchen proves that quality beats quantity, especially when it comes to food.

Louisiana: Rollin Fatties (New Orleans)

Everyone in America knows that Louisiana won’t be Louisiana if it weren’t for food. The one thing that that US state is known for is its various dishes and hearty meals. But with the high number of tourists that visit New Orleans every day, it’s difficult to find a cozy restaurant to just relax and grab something to eat.

Wisconsin: Curd Girl (Madison)

People who visit Wisconsin go there for one reason alone, and that is to get a taste of its famous cheese and dairy products.

Out of all the restaurants that served up Filipino-inspired cuisines, one food truck in Cheyenne, Wyoming was able to get the attention of many people thanks to its uniquely designed exterior.

At first glance, you’ll think that The Nipa Hut is not a food truck, but a home. That’s because in the Philippines, the nipa hut is the traditional house during the early history of the country. Dishes such as lumpia and adobo fried rice are among the most popular foods that The Nipa Hut sells.
