Our Story

Born in a Kitchen. Built on Love.

Twin Grill has been feeding Dallas families since 2010 — one cast-iron skillet at a time.

Marcus and Darnell Williams, founders of Twin Grill

Where It All Started

Two Brothers, One Dream

Twin Grill started the way the best things do — around a kitchen table. Brothers Marcus and Darnell Williams grew up in South Dallas watching their grandmother cook. She never measured anything. She just knew. Every Sunday, the whole neighborhood would find their way to her door, drawn by the smell of cornbread in the oven and collard greens on the stove.

When she passed in 2008, Marcus and Darnell made a promise: they'd keep her recipes alive and share them with the city that raised them. Two years later, Twin Grill opened its doors on Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd — and Dallas hasn't been the same since.

What We Stand For

The Way We Do Things

Made From Scratch

Every dish, every day. No shortcuts, no compromises. If grandma wouldn't recognize it, it doesn't leave our kitchen.

Rooted in Community

We source locally when we can, hire locally always, and give back to the South Dallas neighborhood that gave us everything.

Recipes Worth Keeping

Our menu is built on recipes passed down through generations. We protect them like family heirlooms — because that's exactly what they are.

A Table for Everyone

Whether you're celebrating a birthday or just need a good meal after a long day, there's always a seat at Twin Grill.
