    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.

    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

    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!

    I would give no stars if I could. They claim to have a "Cali burrito".. it was very disappointing…read more Not Cali at all and I'm from Cali. I do not recommend eating here. Pros: conveniently located on base. Cons: The cashier was slow and did not know her own menu. Overpriced for the quality and quantity. The loco burrito was skimpy and flat. Loaded with 90% fries and 10% meat. The burrito was barely warm. The carnitas was bland and lacking in flavor. The tasted like they were frozen and microwaved before. The hot sauce was far from hot.

    I feel so sorry for people without base access. Loco Lowe's is a JBPHH gem! As long as they're…read morehere, I strongly advise you to gain base access someway, somehow... But legally of course! My coworkers & I try to plan lunch get-togethers at this spot, but with our ever changing work schedules, it can be difficult. Anyway, enough of the backstory that you all don't care about... I was debating between the protein bowl and frybread taco. I can be quite indecisive, so it was no surprise that I couldn't make up my mind. I asked what they would suggest I order and they told me the frybread, which they mentioned it being very unique in comparison to other options on the menu not only for them, but for other establishments too. Since it's "no calorie Friday", the Friday where calories don't count, I figured I might as well get that frybread! I chose carne asada and got sour cream and guac, and their spicy salsa/sauce on the side (really good, but I can go spicier ). I didn't know what to expect because I didn't turn to yelp beforehand & there wasn't any pictures posted on the truck. So I guess you can say I was being very adventurous. An adventure I would go on again, I might add. We got there at about 130, well after the lunch rush & I am so glad about that! We waited no longer than 5 minutes for our food, which was fantastic! When I opened up the plate, my jaw dropped. The frybread looked amazing. I couldn't wait to dig in, but I had to wait because I had to figure out my plan of attack. It was huge! Was I gonna eat it like a pizza? Use a knife & fork? Fold it like a taco or chalupa? I ended up eating it like a pizza, but it was so much food... My hands got tired Hahhaha. I ended up using the knife & fork! I def think this meal coulda fed two people, but honestly... I finished the whole frybread on my own! No regrets! The frybread was fried nice and golden, crunchy outside & soft & pillow-like inside. It was topped with refried beans, tomatoes, carne asada (which was nicely marinated & tender), & the guac, salsa, & sour cream. Loco Lowe's is amazing. Friendly service & delicious food. It's even just a nice place to make new friends. Go there ASAP. Do yourself a favor, eat a whole frybread or share it with someone you love & enjoy it!!!

    So, I work on Hickam and visit the food court often. I don't really stop by the food trucks out…read morefront that often but I've been missing out. I ordered a spicy poke bowl. Initially I was skeptical because 1) it's a food truck serving raw fish, 2) on an Air Force base, 3) and the two owners/operators don't look like my normal sushi person in town. Raw fish is something that necessitates some knowledge & skill to ensure everyone's safety. But I didn't want to wait in the subway line, so I took a chance. I think they use ahi tuna in chunks and their spicy sauce is delicious--it really is good. Just mix it all up and bam! In town, I have often found I don't get enough sauce or it's not that flavorful. That's not an issue here. They also have rolls and other items that I want to try in the future. They also provide two dumplings. They're not too bad. Not great but not bad. Some folks are complaining about the cost to portion ratio but I'd say it's about on par with any similar type casual sit down place in town. All in all, this will do. If you're expecting fine dining, you're barking up the wrong tree. It's a food truck ffs. They provide fresh, quick, & tasty food. What more do you want?

    I wish I took a better photo because this party platter was a work of art (It was devoured…read moreIMMEDIATELY)!!! The owner, Sam, is the nicest and sweetest person and she went out of her way to make sure the party platter was able to be transferred safely! The price is also VERY reasonable!!
