If you want a light meal and easy on your wallet, try the Happy Hour at Babe's in Rancho Mirage. Because it was 104 degrees outside, we ordered a crisp salad wedge topped with bacon, candied pecans and a yummy ranch dressing along with a very tender brisket sampler on a bed of coleslaw tossed with a tasty dressing, pecans...

We went for a late lunch at Babes. We were travelling from the Uk and had been dying to try a BBQ restaurant and weren't disappointed. All the servers wear cowboy hats and the interior is decorated similar. From bronze pigs heads as lamps to the huge potrait of wild mustangs on the walls it is like a western experience.... More

Visited for lunch and ordered fresh fish sandwich which only had one small piece of fish inside a stale bread after the waiter told us it will have two pieces- politely asked for the manager who very rudely told us not to ever come back to babes since this is a food loss for the restaurant. After I asked him... More

I was in the mood for a burger so I decided to give Babe's another try. It was the best burger I've had in ages and the fries were really good. I haven't tried the barbeque but the people at the next table were trying to figure out how to ship a case of the sauce to their house--so it... More

We took a party of 8 into Babes on Memorial Day...no reservations and only a 15 minute wait. Service was a little slow, but expected on such a busy day. Food was tasty, value was good, everyone seemed to have something a little different, so I'll breakout the "excellents". The baby back ribs, the beef sandwiches, the chicken cob salad,... More

We had a pleasant meal here. It was some sort of beer promotion and my husband enjoyed a discounted home brew. He had BBQ pulled chicken which was served on 2 buns with sweet potato fries. I had the salmon @ $23. It was a very generous serving. Moist but well done. It was served atop their house made, really... More

We finally tried this restaurant on our final night in Palm Desert and wished we had done so earlier. The food is delicious, great service and so much interesting decor to take in. If we are ever in the area again, we definitely be back, especially to try the ribs!

We were in the area and looking for lunch so we stopped at "The River". The first and most obvious food establishment we came to was Babe's and we entered. We (party of four) were seated on the patio and it was a warm day. The misters weren't effectively aimed to provide much relief. There is a full cover over... More

We chose Babe's since we were craving BBQ and heard it was great for families and kids. The skillet cornbread as an appetizer was yummy and dinner as a whole was delicious! I ordered the beef combo platter which came with tri tip steak and beef short ribs. The tri tip was nothing special, but the beef short ribs were... More
