    Overcooked Mac
    Xin L.

    My friend and I visited this vendor when we went to the food truck park in Waikiki. I was craving something cheesy and was drawn to their truck as they seemed to specialize in mac n cheese. I was honestly so excited but ended up being awfully disappointed. We ordered the Hamburger Mac Shack Bowl, the hamburger patty was small, sad, dry, and lacked in flavor. It tasted like the school lunch hamburger patties at best. The mac was BAD, like it was so grainy and I thought maybe they messed up the roux (if they used any), but my partner (chef) said that its due to it being overcooked. Which makes a lot of sense because the macaroni itself was also a bit overcooked. There were no like "cheesy-ness" to the mac at all, other than the sad, grainy texture sauce, which also had a strong "flour-y" taste. I do NOT recommend. If you want mac and cheese balls (seems to what they're popular for as well" go to cheesecake factory or literally anywhere else.

    Well first off they where out of mac bombs and those are what we really wanted. So instead of being able to get the Mac daddy burger or Mac spicy chicken sandwich we had to get a scoop of the reg Mac on the side. We waited about 10-15 minutes for the food so not bad!! The fries were kinda tasteless. Chicken was super yummer and burger was so so. Bacon chewy .

    Chicken Wrap with bbq sauce

    The chicken Mac wrap was absolutely amazing! Looking at it was mouthwatering and it tasted even better once I took the first bite. It had a lot of great flavor with the chicken and mac & cheese, and I would definitely recommend adding barbecue sauce. It had a good sweet flavor to it that helped. It is been one of my favorite meals on this trip. Great ambience around with the other food trucks. It is very heavy, so I shared it with my boyfriend and it was the perfect amount. With the other trucks around, you can always get this with something a little lighter. But I would definitely recommend trying this. You won't regret it.

    Tried the hot Mac & cheese balls as well as the regular Mac & Cheese and they were amazing! The Mac and cheese has a great flavor to it and was super cheesy. Service was prompt and friendly.

    Service was fast and the food was high quality. It's located in a little park with other food trucks. If you're looking for something very American, this is the place to go. Great steak, great chicken, great bbq, and great Mac and cheese! The portions are good as well. I recommend this truck for a comfort meal!

    It took a bit of time- but the wait was worth it! Best Mac and cheese ever -not even kidding.

    $20.00 plate of dried out Mac with "cheese" sauce
    Samantha H.

    Visited Thursday 8/1 with my family, there were 5 of us including 2 who are vegetarian. We got items from other trucks and were pleased. We also ordered a plain large Mac n cheese from Aloha Mac Shack. It took about 20 minutes to get our order. Once we opened it we were surprised, it was a small amount of dried out macaroni with a small amount of "cheese" sauce on it. I took it back to the truck to ask if this was their $20.00 plate, they confirmed it was. They were nice enough to take it back to "fix" it. After 5 minutes it was returned the same way just more. I didn't want to post this publicly but no one responded to my messages on IG. Please see the picture.

    We ordered a chicken wrap with buffalo sauce which came with Mac in it. We were expecting a cheesy Mac and cheese, but instead it tasted like plain noodles with no flavor. The chicken was the only saving grace, but the sauce was on one side of the wrap. Fries were crispy, but lacked seasoning. Disappointing considering their name.

    Just when you think it's imPASTAble they certainly did it!! Lucky to find this golden yummy at the What the truck Kaka'ako Makai held every second Fridays at the former Fisherman's Wharf location which is a stunning place. Aloha Mac Shack has transformed our classic Mac and Cheese into a bougie treat you'd been dreaming of into reality with menu items from their grab and go (Mac Shack Burger, Mac Shack Chicken Wrap and Mac Shack Dog) to plate lunch (Steak, Chicken or Kalua Pig) which of course include Mac and cheese as a side. Strolling around taking in the super chill vibe while enjoying the musical entertainment of the night I decided on a much more portable item like the Mac Shack Dog simply put hot dog all surrounded by golden Mac and cheese and fried to the most incredible crispiest masterpiece! Mind you it is all made to order of course so it does take some time which was about a ten minute wait but is it worth it...absolutely!! Being that I was warned to give it a moment to cool which I took full advantage of that time to finding a spot to chill, the outer coating is just super crispy and amazingly held all that yumminess in perfectly even as I bit into it each and every time and it gets even better dipping it all in that velvety cheese sauce that I couldn't get enough of lol! Follow them on Instagram @alohamacshack so you can find that gold at the end of the rainbow. Thank you!

    Review Update!! I got to try Aloha Mac Shack again at the What The Truck event at Waikele. And I saw they got new items on the menu! You can now get mac and cheese on its own, fried mac and cheese bites and the mac shack dog. I'm glad we got to try some!! All so delicious. Mac and cheese bites -- it's deep fried mac and cheese. It's self explanatory but taste so amazing! 10/10!! And it also came with a side of cheese sauce!!! AMAZING!! Mac Shack dog -- it's similar to the korean hotdogs. But it's got mac and cheese and hotdog. I don't eat pork, so I had to ask them what kind of hotdog they use and they use kosher ones, so it's BEEF!! YAY! I'm really glad I got to try more of their items! Definitely will get some food from them again! Not only you get to have delicious food but also excellent customer service!! Give this place a try next time! Totally worth it!

Her excellent service made an already enjoyable visit even better. The food was fantastic. The burger was flavorful, juicy, and cooked perfectly, while the fries were extra crispy with a delicious garlic flavor that really stood out. Since it's an open-air restaurant, it was a little warm dining at around 1:00 p.m., but that was the only minor downside.

We sat facing Kuhio and watched all the different people walking by. It was all very fun because some of them were funny to watch! It's interesting how some of the tourists will not venture outside of Waikiki and would only do so on a tour.

There is a private lot that you can park in, so parking is free and not an issue. However, looking for this place might be. It's literally just a black door with a white window and red light above it that's located next to the stairs and on the first floor. Just roll up to the door/ window where you can find their menu. It's a pretty small menu but what is offered is out of this world! I don't know where else you would get a double patty smash burger for only $9! Just push the button and a guy will open The window to help you. Once you place your order bell close it again and you'll just have to wait for it to be prepared. He'll open it up again when your food is ready and that is when you pay for your goods. It gave me mafia vibes here and it felt so secretive lol. Kind of like a speakeasy but for burgers? Lol I'm sure the effects would be moreso in the middle of the night with a little red light on the door. I picked up the og burger + onion rings. Their fry sauce was sweet chili oil + Mayo and fried to perfection. But - I think for just $2 more I should have got the other burger instead. Lol. The burger was huge and so juicy.

The place is very hard to locate, due to the lack of good signage, but it's in the shopping center right next to the Lobster King. Parking is very difficult too, so maybe have another person with you who can order and wait for the food. I'm not going to lie, the wait time for the food is extremely long for just burgers and fries--took more than 30 minutes--but please keep in mind this is a small business. I think there were only 2 or 3 people working, an auntie, uncle, and a younger guy who I believe was cooking. The food looked so beautiful but everything was too salty and the patties were way too charred, which I'm hoping was a one off thing. I did DM them on social media shortly after picking up our order and they said it was an off day. They offered for me to come back one day so they can make things right, but I don't know if I'll have the time to swing by anytime soon. I truly hope this business does well, they are the sweetest people I've met in the last few months, and I wish them nothing but the best. I hope others have a better experience than I did. I mean look at how beautiful their burgers are!

The patrons were awesome, prices were comparable, service very friendly, beers were tasty but wished they had more variety, and the food options were very limited. This was also a family and pet-friendly (events on certain nights) place. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $145.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS
