Lee’s Hamburgers

Love, love, Love the Lee’s special with extra grilled onions, lettuce and ketchup. Onion rings are a must and a fried apple pie. Employees are great and very helpful, will even offer to help you carry your takeout order to your car. Best burger in Slidell! One of the owners, Russell, always behind the grill cooking burgers, knows the regulars by name. Calls out hello as you walk on the door. Great casual atmosphere. Very kid friendly.

The hamburgers are amazing. The burgers can be greasy but that’s what makes them good. Overall, Lee’s is a tradition in Slidell and you won’t be disappointed.

Amazing burgers! I always get the lee burger with raw onions instead of the grilled and no ketchup! It’s to die for! The owner and staff are always so kind and make it feel like home! We love going here!

We stopped for dinner with two large families of kids and this place was awesome! Great food! Great service and friendly staff! The burgers and hand made onion rings so good.

Great Burger joint, we were looking for a one off place to grab a great burger and we found it. The only downside is that they don’t have american cheese for their burgers. The use shredded chedar… LOL I just brought slices from home and put them on it!
Tasted phenomenal!

Awesome !!! The burgers are so freaking good! If u love burgers then this is the place. Nice and clean

OMG!!! The best burger you will EVER have. I love this place and am so happy they opened in Chalmette so when I go visit my son we can have lunch there… onion rings are fantastic and the staff is always exceptional :)

I honestly wish I could give this place 5 stars. I love the fact that they have been serving Slidell for many years and that they have a following of people who wouldn’t get a burger anywhere else.
I, however, have been twice and probably won’t return. The burgers are ok. Not much flavor just a basic hamburger. The thing that turns me off the most is the cold shredded cheese on it. When I bite into a burger, the last thing I want is a lump of cold cheese. The lettuce is actually not good either. Has a strange flavor, but I’m not really a lettuce eater. Fries are also just ok, nothing special. Kinda like fries you would get at a tee-​ball game. The service is also just ok. The times we have went the cashiers haven’t been very enthusiastic. When you sit down, there’s an unnecessary waiter that brings your food to you just 4 feet away and refills your drink if needed. I throw a couple bucks down when I leave even though I never need anything after getting my burger, but honestly I just feel it’s unnecessary to pay a person to do this when it’s slow. When the place is popping, it makes sense, but when we came in both times there were only a couple of people.
It hurts my heart to say it but when my family comes down to visit, this place will unfortunately not be the place I recommend if they are in the mood for a burger.

This is one of those hole in the wall burger joints that should be in your top ten list. The burger I had (Lee Dressed), was absolutely perfect. Grated cheddar cheese, grilled onions, nice griddle style patty, not too big, not too small. The onion rings were ok, the batter was flour based, and they weren’t greasy. The addition of a fried Apple pie was a little different, no complaints here though.

It is what you would expect it to be; a mom and pop burger joint. The burger was OK, the fries were OK, the atmosphere was a bit too «old bar» for my personal taste. The staff was exceptionally polite and cheerful. I probably ordered wrong, but I was expecting my burger to have grated cheddar cheese but it came plain and that hurt the flavor/​experience.
I will return to keep my money local and away from the chains.

Decent mom and pops feel, decent hamburger. Nothing I would feel a need to bring someone to experience, but not a lunch I regret either. Just okay! Don’t stop by if you’re in a rush, as they grill them to order– which I personally appreciate, but a lunch break might be rushed!

I know that Lee’s has history and I ate at Lee’s in the 80’s. Unfortunately I can’t remember why I liked it then. Now the burgers are overpriced by a factor of at least 2 and the presentation is amazingly bad. Paper instead of a plate and the burgers arrived sloppily put together with the bread sliding off the bun. I would have understood if the price was a lot less and would probably have given another star.

The burgers are super good! It’s fast like «fast food» but much better quality.

I love this place! The fresh ground beef laced with fresh chopped onions make for an awesome burger! The chili dogs are better than any place in town. I’ve put the chili on my burger, which sends it to a whole different level. The service is great they have a roving hostess making sure the drinks and condiments are full. The servings are large, we’ve never left hungry.

Honestly, I’m giving one extra star for the historical significance of Lee’s. Had I just wandered in on my own, without having heard the nostalgic history of the place, you’d see two stars, max.
The burger? Blah, greasy and mediocre, at best. The fries? Not bad. The atmosphere? Old school roadhouse. The service? Once you’ve ordered at the counter, ad taken your seat, the service is ok.
I love local establishments, but seriously, Five Guys puts out a way better burger, and fries.
Maybe I just don’t get Lee’s because I’m not a NOLA native, or over the age of 75? If you are, maybe you’ll be inclined to offer 5-​stars like so many others have.
Sorry, Lee, I’ll be looking elsewhere for my next burger fix.

This Lee’s is amazing. They have sweet potato fries. They have Hubig’s Pies. They have Barq’s Red Cream Soda. The Lee’s in Covington have never heard of those things. How can it be a Lee’s without Barq’s Red? HOW? This Lee’s is the real deal. They even have a sit down Ms Pac Man machine! Best burger in town!
