Social News NetworkDecember 4, 2013Babe's has some of the best fried chicken in the DFW, with a great atmosphere to boot. You'll feel like you're at your grandmas house as you indulge in juicy chicken and delicious sides.
Great fried and grilled chicken. 1/2 chicken and unlimited sides for under $15. The unlimited sides are just as tasty. Place is BYOB so don't forget your drink. Try the chicken with honey on table.- sk leJuly 4, 2014I am new to Texas and I will say this is the best fried chicken I've ever had in my life. All the sides are unlimited, it doesn't get more American than that. Oh and the sweet tea is worth it.
Angela BolesMay 13, 2014Awesome place to eat for people with certain food allergies! They now make everything fresh on-site. Ask for a allergy list....easy to read, not the usual "dot" list.
You could eat four or five bowls of the creamed corn, it's that good. (Plus, then you can take all of your leftover chicken and biscuits home!)
Jeff CeynarJuly 12, 2016Chicken and Chicken Fried Steak. All of the sides are great. Served family style. Also check out Magic Coloring book- sk leSeptember 30, 2016This is that best fried chicken I've ever had. Don't forget to bring someone for their birthday for the chicken dance!
My daughter loves the tractor seat chairs and Boot Scootin' Boogie line dance w/ the wait staff. I go for the chicken strips, mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, and creamed corn.- Joe Moro'nMay 6, 2015Fried chicken, mashed potatoes with gravy green beans and cream corn its all good! First time here and will come again!
Vaughn MerrittJune 19, 2017The best fried chicken I've had outside of grandma's. Very cool atmosphere and the wait staff was amazing.- Angela SkeesAugust 11, 2015Very tasty fried chicken. Always worth the wait. It's BYOB if you're into that sort of thing.
Jason BattenAugust 11, 2014If you are looking for a place that is just good, old fashioned, home cooking, this is it. Nothing fancy, just good food.
Boyce Thompson jrMay 26, 2018The chicken fried steak is very good. The homemade biscuits are good also.
The food and service are always great come hungry and leave satisfied!
Marlanne VentersJune 7, 2017Great service!!! Very fast seating on a Sunday After church. Get Amber she is Amazing!!!- Daniel GossJune 26, 2015Bring an appetite. Downside is you can only take home what you can fit in a small plastic bag...
Erin DisselhorstJuly 26, 2012Catfish is delicious and couldn't get enough of the mashed potatoes. Great staff and friendly service!
Cindy LJanuary 30, 2013The fried chicken is great but trying to be a little healthier go for the smoked chicken. The selections at the newer Babe's are much better than the original, since they only have two choices.
Kristina HollomonFebruary 4, 2013There are no menus. You pick your meat and they bring out all the sides family style. The food was ok, maybe a little salty. The chicken was very good, both the fried and smoked.
Adam RogersMay 26, 2013This place is good, but doing ask for popcorn chicken or the honey BBQ wings, this ain't no KFC, though the biscuits are almost as good.
John NelsonNovember 17, 2013Fantastic good and service! I highly recommend the chicken fried chicken for your entree!
ChainsawJuly 21, 2011Everything is good here!! Choose from 6 different meats & neverending homestyle sides come with. Also, dont forget to BYOB! 
MDEsquareMarch 26, 2012Wish Babes would have a couple of more side options. How about fried okra or mac&cheese? Love the mashes potatoes.
babe's is the best! worked here and loved it. now I love eating here all the time. EVERYTHING is delicious.
Wade StalcupDecember 1, 2011Underwhelmed given all the hype. 3 out of 5 stars. Green beans and banana pudding needed improvement. Fried chicken fresh and extremely hot. The corn was fantastic however.
Black SupaManJanuary 12, 2014Fried chicken was the truth... Also sit in Ashley's section she was top notch with her service
Niranjan SarafMay 13, 2014Tender chicken was tasty. Also the bread and salad was something to mention.
If serving 2 adults, order 1 take out dinner to serve at home--more than enough!
Great smoked chicken, chicken fried steak is huge, service is awesome!
Doug CaldwellDecember 12, 2010Love the smoked chicken. Big crowds Sunday afternoon come early. Big desserts, one is plenty for two or three others.
Charles TabangcoraOctober 17, 2011Not as good as the original but great home cooking. family style serving. country fried awesomeness.
What's the secret to those creamy mashed potatoes? Unlike any others...so delicious!
Stephanie DownesApril 24, 2015Green beans are salty. But food is good. BIG PORTIONS. WHO EATS THIS MUCH!!!
Andrea GibbsJanuary 9, 2011Best banana pudding I've ever had! The merengue they use is like eating little pillows of deliciousness!
Jenn TruongAugust 31, 2011Fried catfish is SO good! And I couldn't get enough of the sweet corn and mashed potatoes!
- Doug CaldwellDecember 24, 2010Handicap parking on west side, only one space in front. Ramp access from larger parking lot in rear.
Sadie HernandezJanuary 21, 2011Fried chicken SO good makes you wanna slap your momma. Also, go for the hickory smoked chicken!
