    Shaggy Jr
    Jo C.

    Finally had a chance to check out Munchie Machine! It resembles the original Mystery Machine from the Scooby-Doo days that adults over 40 will remember! Located in Mapunapuna they are parked in front of Fisher Hawaii you can't miss this baby blue food truck. We found street parking ordered and waited about 10 minutes for our burgers and fries. Check them in IG for updated times and locations. But they are usually here during the week and closed weekends. We came here on advice that it rivaled one of our favorite smash burgers from Shays so naturally we had to stop by. The Verdict..they are really good tasty burgers but I think that they appeal to the younger crowd that prefers the sweeter tasting burgers over savory. The DAB sauce a sweeter honey mustard sauce almost like the chick FIL a sauce. They use it generously on their burgers which definitely appeals to a lot of people. The shaggy jr and shaggy burger kicks it up by having the bread dipped in the sauce and then grilled. Your taste buds will be happy, your waistline not so much! The Dab fries (shoestring) ones we ordered were in the oil a bit too long and came out very crispy so we just had the crunch and none of the potato. I would try the waffle fries next time. Overall they grill up a great burger and for those that like things on the sweeter side I would head out there and check them out. They are cooked fresh so expect to wait a few minutes for your order. Friendly workers and convenient location.

    Right in front of CPB Mapunapuna from 10:30 to 3ish

    "Deceptively simple... deceptively delicious" Ok, I'll be the first to admit- you really cannot live on burgers and fries, it's not gonna do your body good. BUT- when you do want to feed that burger hunger, The Munchie Machine is a worthy consideration. From what I have read, they are located in Mapunapuna by CPB for the lunch crowd and they later go to Ahuimanu side for the late afternoon/after school/work crowd. They sell basically two things: burgers (and variations of burgers) and fries. The prices are reasonable, the food ono. No complaints here. (See my pics for descriptions) I have heard on Fridays they offer other stuff too like Saimin. You can ask them about that when you call in your order. When I have to make a run to Hardware Hawaii or Fisher Hawaii I will sometimes try to time so I can get my burger fix from Munchies. Give them a try when in the area- you won't be disappointed.

    Delicious burger.

    Late post but still remembering the taste.... Enjoyed the shaggy burger and Dooby fries which was recommended by one of the owners. Super friendly and worth the wait. We will be back.

    Great hamburger food truck in Mapunapuna fronting CPB

    We've been going there for couple of years. My mom does her banking at the CPB Mapunapuna branch/ Moanalua. She doesn't eat meat as much especially hamburgers but she loves the way they prepare their unique burgers. It's grilled cheese with waffle fries between their sandwiches. They have potato sides such as waffle, string fries & Teriyaki sauce French fries. The menu is written by the cartoon character Scobie-do..I highly recommend all to try their burgers they grill there. They have their Instagram all can follow her delightful delicious eats that are burgers only they prepare very yummy good. I think I ordered their Shaggy burger photo shown below. They're usually at the same locale check Instagram for time and days they are not there.

    Yay I finally tried this spot. Their dab sauce is pretty yummy! I ordered their scrappy cheeseburger burger which comes with one patty and all of their burgers comes with homemade Teri sauce and their dab sauce. Must get their dab sauce with their fries! Their truck is fun and reminds me of Scooby Doo! It's located right in Mapunapuna in front of Central Pacific bank.

    Omg the food is soooo good! The secret sauce for the burgers and fries is like a Hawaiian mustard I loved it! Our burgers were so juicy and the flavor was spot on. We were full without over spending, the service was great, burgers came quick...definitely a hidden gem. We rented a car to visit this food truck while staying in Waikiki and 10/10 do recommend

    Scrappy Burger and Teri Fries
    Albert F.

    Wow. Are you kidding me? I found this place next to my new job and tried it. Wow. I didnt get to eat immediately as some work popped up but but when I finally got to eat it it was still yummy! The teri fries was solid, still crispy and kind of alot. I think the scrappy (1 smash burger) had teri sauce on it but the dab sauce was insane, like the other reviewers mentioned. The owner/person I talked to said they do Prime Rib or Smoked Meat Fried Saimin on Fridays so I am going to have to go back to try that too.

    So i dont know how i have never heard of this place before. So im sitting in mapunapuna and i am just craving a burger and fries - and not mcdonalds so of course i go on Yelp. Scrolling..scrolling.. and then i see "the Munchie Machine" I take a look and i am hesitant. I think to myself they cant be that good, plus some of the pictures wernt that appealing. Also who wants to just eat a plain cheeseburger with no veggies? On my way home i just couldnt stop thinking about it so i took a detour to just check them out. and i am sooo glad i did! In the afternoon they are parked on ala ilima. I think they target the kids afterschool and the people in the surrounding buildings. Parking is really challanging and you just have to hope you get lucky. The owner is great - she is really nice and answered all my quesitons. she also let me know that i could get a deluxe with lettuce, onion and tomator which i did not see on the menu. (later she told me that you can also request to have the onions grilled which is great because the raw onions was a little over powering) I also like how clean they are - in between orders she is teaching her staff the imporance of keeping the grill and counter area clean. I asked the difference between the fires and she said if you like crunchy go with the shaggy. If you like softer fries go with the crisscut fries. She didnt make me feel rushed and made me feel like a valued customer. The burgers and the sauces are all homemade. THe dab sauce is like a honey mustard suace. Her burgers are smash burgers and just burst with flavor, which is only inhanced by the teri sauce and dab sauce. Her buns are fresh and nicely grilled. All i can say is that i will be back! i even called people on my way home to tell them they have to try this place out - it is truly a hidden gem.

    Get ready to get messy! It's a homey style of burger freshly made to order! The cute Scooby Food Truck stands out in Mapunapuna and love their friendly service. My husband ordered the Shaggy and I ordered the Scrappy Deluxe with shoe string and waffle fries. Crispy and fresh! I highly recommend this burger truck!

Today was salt and pepper pork chop and meatloaf plates. Meatloaf was soft tender but too much breading inside that you can taste. Salt pepper pork I was thinking more Chinese style crispy but was more just season and gravy all over. Both gravy same not overpowering or salty so that was a plus for me easier to add salt or shoyu to taste if needed. Super fair prices at around $11-12+ for plates. Few bar table seats if needed other than that order and go. Larger order suggest calling in as it's a true mom and pop store with 2 workers roughly.

My father and brother are both military veterans and enjoyed the fact that this venue was situated at a golf course they patronized before. We all ordered drinks--I ordered a bottle of wine, taking advantage of the Half-off Wine Wednesdays; some tried the alcohol specials and others simply elected to have soda. I ordered a few appetizers for the table and those went quickly: calamari, bruschetta, and artichoke dip. Yum! Main entrees followed and everyone seemed to enjoy their selections. We ordered dessert and were disappointed that they ran out of creme brulee...my father ordered the cheesecake and thoroughly enjoyed it. My only reason for not giving five stars has to do with the outdoor seating. I wish the chairs were more comfortable, as we sat there for awhile, waiting for our server to take our large group order along with waiting for food to come out. There is adequate parking and the restrooms are clean and accessible. An elevator is located in the lobby for those who are not able to easily climb the flight of stairs to the venue. I wish the signage was better, as my 74 year old father took the outside steps, as he thought that was the entrance, per signage downstairs.

The price to portion is not worth it they need to remove this item off their menu. Good way to lose loyal customers. Questionable portions for almost $27.00 is not to cool but more acceptable if it was good...... Unfortunately it was also really salty...actually comparable to dinty moore and thats not a compliment .. not a good value. Its not only about not really getting my moneys worth but kind of begs the question does the restaurant think this is acceptable?

This cheesecake is not sweet - The crust is pretty thick with a little bit of nuts. The cream cheese layer is thin maybe a little more cream cheese or less crust to balance out. The blueberry topping is not sweet at all. It's just blueberry maybe smashed or squished to remove the liquid. Definitely taste the blueberry though - They have banana bread and many other homemade desserts I think all homemade.: Now for my garlic chicken plate. It's tasty i love garlic but i didn't taste garlic like i would expect to. The Smoke meat is a little on the spicy side and you can taste that smoke meat flavor not sweet - which i enjoyed - I don't care too much for sweet smoke meat. My Husband loved it though he did say it's too spicy. I had to update my rating and review because to be honest It was just ok, I remember eating a plate from this truck a while back and It was awesome tasty Onolicious . This time, not that flavorful - Sorry Guys just being honest and letting locals know. flavor flavor flavor needs attention We Locals aka KAMAAINA's support locally grown - Local own - Local people/business etc. But trust me this support will fade away if the quality changes.
