Disable Grub Menu Permanently. Should not appear even if the Shift / Esc keys are pressed
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
Is there a way to disable the grub menu completely? I already have it hidden and boot directly to Ubuntu. Now, I don't want it to appear even by pressing Shift / Esc keys during boot.

I understand what you are asking for, but not why you would want this. Being able to access grub in the case of a kernel update causing system problems is valuable, and if grub is not shown during the boot process unless you do something, does it create a problem?

This is for a highly locked down systems which are meant for very limited purpose (kiosk web browsing). Don't want any one to play around and access the grub menu. Not having access to grub menu for emergencies is not a problem.

I am not sure of a way to full block access to the grub, but I did write an answer for disabling editing of the grub menu a while back: askubuntu.com/a/657043/231142

I don't have a direct answer, but Ubuntu can be booted from EFI or https://www.tecporto.pt/wiki/index.php?title=Booting_the_Linux_Kernel_without_a_bootloader, and alternatively you can set passwords in Grub
