The Munchie Machine

I will think of an excuse to drive to Mapunapuna on a weekday, just so I can pick up a burger from The Munchie Machine. The burgers are tasty, thanks to their homemade teri sauce and DAB sauce. I usually get the single patty (scrappy burger) and make it a deluxe (lettuce, tomato) - it's the perfect amount of burger not to put me into a food coma for the rest of the afternoon. After trying the fries once, I pass on the fries, because they're always too crispy for my liking. But one day when I don't have to return to work after lunch, I'll try the shaggy jr. which consists of a grilled cheese single patty sandiwch with fries inside - maybe the sauces will soften up the fries in the sandwich. Sounds amazing doesn't it?!Note: order window is on the right (where the driver/passenger sits). The pick up window is on the left! Check their Instagram page (the.munchie.machine) for updates - sometimes they modify their normal operating hours.

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.

"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.

I really like their burgers and the Teri fries. They make your food when you order it. You know that it is fresh. The service is great. I love the truck. It reminds me of cartoon and my childhood.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!
