01 The story, in three paragraphs

Why everyone keeps coming back.

Nestled in the heart of Slidell, Louisiana, Times Grill is a vibrant hamburger and American restaurant that seamlessly blends the warmth of a family eatery, the lively spirit of a sports bar, and the casual comfort of a bar & grill. Known as a neighborhood favorite, this spot is a must-visit for anyone craving rich, satisfying Southern American flavors with a modern twist.

The menu at Times Grill is a celebration of classic comfort food elevated with thoughtful ingredients and authentic local flair. Their extensive sides selection offers everything from creamy, indulgent Mac & Cheese and crispy Sweet Potato Fries to lighter options like a fresh Caesar Salad or vibrant Creole Cole Slaw. For those seeking a hearty start, the Bowl Crawfish & Pepperjack Soup stands out as a signature dish, simmered to perfection daily with a peppery kick that tantalizes the palate.

But the real stars of the menu are the burgers and nachos. As one enthusiastic customer, Jared Meeks, puts it, the place serves the "best burger I have ever had," a bold claim that is backed by the juicy, perfectly cooked patties layered with crisp lettuce, tangy pickles, and fresh onions. The BBQ Pulled Pork Nachos and the NOLA Nachos, loaded with smoked sausage, red beans, and zesty queso blanco, offer a medley of textures and flavors that perfectly complement a cold drink from the bar. Whether you're fueling up before a game or settling in for a laid-back evening, these dishes offer an explosion of local taste that feels both familiar and exciting.

Atmosphere-wise, Times Grill carries a down-to-earth, welcoming vibe that invites families, sports fans, and casual diners alike. The friendly staff, often lauded for their attentive and accommodating service, adds a personal touch to every visit. Nate Palencia highlights the lively scene at the bar with characters like Darby creating an engaging, community-driven environment that makes every visit memorable. This mix of upbeat energy and genuine hospitality makes Times Grill not just a place to eat, but a true local gathering spot.

Whether you’re stopping in for the "meanest burgers in town," craving a plate piled high with flavor-packed nachos, or simply looking for a spot to enjoy your favorite game with great company and refreshing drinks, Times Grill delivers a remarkable dining experience that feels both rooted in Southern tradition and infused with modern hospitality.

Located conveniently on Front Street, just steps from the Slidell train station, Times Grill embodies the local spirit and serves up authentic hospitality with every dish. It’s more than just a meal—it’s where authentic Louisiana flavors meet warm camaraderie in an inviting, family-friendly space.

Serving the meanest burgers in town is this rock solid foundation on Front street. Right around the corner its Times, now one of two, where the crew on top of it all, makes any day or night right. Spot it right next to the train station in Slidell on front street and ask for the lovely Darby holding it down at the bar. We'll be sure to see her and the rest of this colorful cast now bringing the heat. Keep those boys in check Ms Darby. Im sure we'll be seeing you soon.

12-08-2020 Tuesday late lunch. This was my first time at this restaurant. The food was very good. I do not feel as if the portion of fries was large enough. The price was kind of expensive for the amount of food you received. “The recommendation I have is load the plate up with fries instead of flipping the burger in half to making it look like you got a larger portion.” I also did not care for the presentation of the food. The location appeared to be clean. The waitress was very polite and helpful. I would return to this location.

*I can not rate service & atmosphere as we ordered delivery.* The food though was absolutely TO DIE FOR. I got the burger since it was my 1st time eating here with lettuce, pickles & onions with coleslaw. The misses got the Shrimp Ranchero wrap with fries. Our food arrived still hot, filling our home with aroma that alerted even the pets. My burger was delicious, cooked as ordered & juicy on thick perfectly grilled slices of sourdough. The coleslaw was definitely not from a bag or commercially made. It instantly skyrocketed to #1 on the taste charts in my opinion. The 1 single bite I had to steal from my partners plate inspired me to get my own next time. The fries & dipping sauce also hit home runs with their efforts. Overall I will CERTAINLY return time & time again only in person this time. Kudos to this restaurant as well as their staff. Your customer, Troy PS: I forgot we got the onion rings which deserve honorable mention & they included plenty of condiments!

Great food, great service! For my first visit there I was very pleased. Their batter was a great texture and super flavorful on the mushrooms, doodads which are thin onion rings, and chicken sandwich (which was massive!). Our waiter was super friendly and patient with my daughter while she made her order with him and they have children's menus with crayons. They have handheld systems to input orders which makes everything 10 times faster so they really pump out the food during rush hour.

The service here was decent. Food is hands down one of the most tasteful places around town. Drinks were ok at best. The atmosphere here is laid back, more of a lounge/sports bar feel.
