My cousin and I tried Babe's a couple of years ago at the Roanoke location. Then we tried the Sanger location, then the Carrollton location. All Superb! We will typically order two entrees per person and try to finish both off while at the restaurant. I must be the only patron that can eat three bowls of mashed potatoes all by myself! But I was prepared and went to the restaurant hungry. My cousin ate every piece of her fried chicken AND her chicken fried steak. She had three bowls of the corn to herself as I do not care for corn. Between the both of us we ate a dozen biscuits. So I guess you could say we DID get our money's worth there. We discovered quite by accident that the salad dressing will double as a wonderful exfoliator for the face and neck. I just happened to take some home with me and had a date one evening and I thought to myself, why don't I try that salad dressing with the vinegar as an exfoliant. I have to say it worked much better than pricier exfoliants that I've purchased at department stores.
You cannot go wrong with Babe's they are absolutely the best at down home, southern cooking. In fact, we are visiting the Carrollton location tonight and I would imagine our bill will run the usual $180.00-200.00 range....but it's worth it. I love Babe's!!!!
Pros: Everything!!!
Cons: Nothing

There are things that I love about Babe's, and things that I don't. The fried and smoked chicken, both just fab, and I don't mean maybe. Love the family style serving in shared serve yourself bowls, and the potatoes and gravy are great. I also like the creamed corn, although it does have that canned tase. The chicken fried steak is okay, not terrific, but the roast beef looks so bad I won't try it. Haven't tried the tenders, but they look pretty good, too. The green beans are just okay, the salad dressing is, uh, unusual, but I like it. But, the biscuits have no flavor whatsoever and in my opinion are worthless carbs. The desserts are great (best pineapple upside down cake I've ever had, and the coconut cream pie is to die for). For the price, it's hard to beat Babe's -- $10 for a ton of good, Southern bad for you food. What I don't like is the hokey service, where the really young servers try to be down home and josh it up with you. There's something about that too familiar thing coming from a kid that irks me. Also, the song and dance routines that they engage in are just dumb. The seating can get crowded (make sure you go at off times, or you'll be sorry), but if you can manage a place on the side it's much more comfortable. All in all, it's good food and a great value.
Pros: Mostly terrific home cooking Southern food
Cons: Despise the "all too familiar with you" service from really young servers and the dance routines

I've been a fan of Babe's for years, but over the Christmas break I made an executive decision: Babe's is my new favorite restaurant. It is a great place with great food, and the atmosphere is perfect for bringing as many friends and family as you can. I have never ever had a bad experience at the Roanoke or this Babe's. If you visit Dallas - eat here! If you live in Dallas, and have never been... what's wrong with you???
Pros: Great food, service, environment
Cons: Eyes might be bigger than your belly!, the wait

I don't think these people know what they are talking about. Babes has the best chicken around and I love the family atmosphere! The whole experience is fabulous!

Babe's is awesome! You just don't get tasty, home cookin' like this anywhere else. The corn is just like my grandmother use to make. Babe's is a family fun atmosphere. We LOVE Babe's!

Have done the Take-Out feature of Babe's a couple of times and love it! There's a separate entrance for take-out which is great because the restaurant is always packed! We order two meals for three of us and it's always plenty with enough left over to pack for lunch the next day! Food is wonderful - especially the corn, and the chicken fried steak! Service is quick - especially when you call ahead! We'll definitely use the take-out option again!

This place is known for their chicken but I must say the chicken fried steak is a good as you can find and as large as your whole plate. You will definitely be asking for a to-go box.

Babe's is the best fried chicken in the Metroplex. This Carrollton location is better than the original in Keller -- more meat items (chicken fried steak, fried chicken, chicken tenders, smoked chicken, fried catfish, pot roast) and desserts (banana pudding, coconut creme pie, peach cobbler, and more). Family style sides are served as if you were family, yum yum yum.

For around $14 per person, you order your meat and get all you can eat sides (mashed potatoes, green beans, corn, rolls). Chicken friend steak is as big as a plate and chicken tenders are about 8 to an order. Not low fat but definitely southern fav.
