my husband and i are in the area for the week, and we had been looking forward to a hearty dinner at babe's, after seeing it featured on television.
we had a half hour wait to be seated, in the outdoor gathering area, so plan your attire according to the weather forecast. those thirty minutes gave us time to take photos of our kiddos with interesting backgrounds and check out the antique farm equipment and fire truck.
once seated, our waitress didn't want to let us see a menu. she told us what was available and rushed us to order. heads up: there is no coca-cola or pepsi here, but you will find rc cola. we're from south ms and didn't find the sweet tea quite sweet enough.
our teenager opted for the three fried chicken fingers and ice water, while our nine year old chose the country fried steak and a lemonade. neither one of them took more than a few bites of food, stating that is was just ok.
my hubby picked the fried chicken dinner plate. it was entirely too salty, and he wasn't able to finish his meal.
i chose the country fried steak, and it was a huge portion. it did taste good to me, but i was also ravenous from traveling.
the sides included a salad, which is literally nothing more than a bowl of lettuce with vinaigrette. they do not offer any other toppings or dressings.
the other sides included: corn, which was sweet; the greenbeans, well seasoned with bacon grease; and the mashed potatoes, with white gravy, which were ok.
overall, we were let down. we're glad we visited, but we won't return.
