Yelp’s list of “Top 100 Food Trucks 2025” is out, and we’re not surprised to see Austin’s trucks had a wheely good turnout.

Austin earned more mentions than any other Texas city and was one of the most mentioned cities overall. Let’s see which trucks topped the list.

A barbecue sandwich stacked with smoked turkey and chorizo and topped with coleslaw sits on a metal tray beside a serving of pickled onions, placed on a reddish-brown picnic table in an outdoor setting with blurred wooden benches in the background.

Editor’s note: Flavia’s Kitchen ranked No. 68, but has since closed due to a tragic accident.
