I loved it! It's a nice and pleasant restaurant, the ambiance is nice and I liked the food in general. The variety and flavors of the appetizers were good. I recommend you to go here very hungry, my mind was stuck on what I couldn't eat :) The prices are a bit high for chicken, but I think they can be considered normal with the by-products. The staff were polite and helpful. The restroom was clean (this is important for me) I will come back and try the chicken with different sauces.

Great southern food. All you can eat sides and delicious hand, breaded, chicken, and fish. The salad and biscuits are delicious. They bring those out as an appetizer. This is a really good southern food experience, very country style and hospitable.

It’s alright. Coming from a Louisiana native. The sides are alright. Not sides I would serve with fried chicken but hey, this is my opinion. Chicken is juicy but the breading doesn’t have much flavor to it. It’s wasn’t worth the hype for us. Price is very affordable though. Salad dressing was sweet, biscuits were good.

October 24, 2024 - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌟🍗 WOW! Where do I even begin? Babe’s in the historic downtown square of Carrollton is like a magical time machine 🚂✨. The moment you step in, it feels like you’ve traveled back to a simpler, more charming time. The decor? Absolutely adorable 🥰—rustic, nostalgic, and so much personality. It’s giving small-town vibes with big flavor 🎩❤️. Now let’s talk FOOD. Oh my goodness! 🤤🍴 • The fried chicken? PERFECTION. 🐔🍗 Crispy, golden, juicy… it’s the stuff of dreams. • The mashed potatoes 🥔 and gravy? Smooth as silk and seasoned to perfection. • Don’t get me started on the biscuits 🧈🔥—soft, buttery, and oh-so-flaky. I think I ate my weight in them 😂. • Sides are served family-style 🥗🍛, so bring your appetite because they just keep coming! The staff here are super friendly and treat you like family 💕.

This place is the bomb. I have never had a bad experience ever coming here. Food is on point. Service is fast and courteous, and the stuff they put and serve in the tables are delicious. The atmosphere is cool and kinda funny where they have some plastic dolls sitting on some tables. It's really cool. I would definitely come here. I have my tried the fried chicken, but i always order the chicken fried steak which is very tender. The favorites are the salad the beans and the corn. The others are very good as well. Enjoy.

I love this location! Our go-to place in Carollton. The decor is so great! The service was excellent, and the food was fantastic! We've had nothing but positive experiences here. The staff is always very welcoming and hlpful our waitress Lily was the best!!! I had the chicken fried steak, while my husband ordered the fried chicken. The sides are delicious, and the biscuits melt in your mouth. We didn't get to get sweets since we were too stuffed. However, their peach cobbler is my favorite. I'll definitely be back! Never disappoint 😋.

First visit and it was very good. In my opinion, some of the best fried chicken i have had. The sides were also delicious and you get unlimited servings on sides. Oh, the biscuits were unbelievable good too.
