Our service was average for what is a diner. The drinks were terrible, I've never had a more sad or pathetic margarita with table salt on the rim. While my honey mustard salad was ok, the chicken was overly fried and dry, I needed a lot of dressing to get through it. Husband had a lobster roll and said it was decent. I think mainly, this is just a place where you get the bare minimum, so take that into consideration when dining here. read more

Food was delicious.. We got the cauliflower tacos and Baked stuff shrimp. Drinks were a mok a Rita and lemonade... the service left alot to be desired... was semi busy but our waiter took forever coming back each time... had to be reminded about what we had asked for before when he came back... other then that it was good read more

I've loved the 99 my whole life. I feel like you need to know what to order (don't get too fancy, a classic chicken sandwich/wrap, fries, bowl., etc. is a good go-to). My sister and I were near this location and decided to relive our childhood glory days. The spicy crispy chicken sandwich and honey bbq wrap were perfection; hot, crispy, delicious food. The fries were soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. We enjoyed the buttery popcorn while we waited. Our waitress was also very kind, friendly, and attentive. She gave us time to look at the menu but didn't forget about us. We came during a quiet lunch hour so I think that helped with the overall experience, but no complaints. This isn't the most excellent meal you'll ever have, but it could be the most comforting. read more

Bartender was extremely nice...but the hostess was everything but. We arrived at 9:15p.m on a Friday...yes sort of late we understood they closed at 10:30p.m, so that is why we decided we'll take our food to go. The hostess was extremely bothered that we came in and in fact did want food. "GO FIGURE".What im trying to get at is find a new hostess she sucks...? Anyway food was great thank you chefs and bartender was great. read more

I used to really love the 99. You could hardly ever get me to go anywhere else! It seems like in recent years, they've narrowed down their menu quite a bit. We stopped in for a quick lunch at this location and were one of few in the restaurant. We settled on splitting the bbq chicken wrap and a tater tot appetizer of sorts. Everything was just average, which is why I decided on 3 stars. The wrap didn't have much chicken in it, seemed more stuff with the shredded lettuce/radish combo and lacked sauce. The tater tots were alright. Our server though was super sweet and attentive the entire time. Overall, nothing I'd go out of my way to have again unfortunately but I think that may apply to the chain as a whole. read more

I've been to several of these around New England and they are usually a good choice. We were having a group reunion and met up here and I had a nice burger and a couple of different beers. The burger was good and the beer options were very nice too, lots of choices. There is a 99 not too far from here so I might try that one out also as they all have been good so far. read more

I go there about once a month and when I place and order form my meal It takes a LONG time to get my meal ! And when it arrives it warm almost cold ! There was three of us on one day and the waitress got the orders all mixed up I am not happy with the Stoneham 99 resturant I go to a different 99 now no problems to Stoneham 99 I would like my food with 15 minutes of ordering and HOT please and the correct side, also HOT! WE pay enough for the food read more

Stopped in for lunch after getting off work early today. I'm a single business traveler so I sat at the bar not wanting to take up a table. It took over 7 minutes for bar maid to come over because she apparently knew several regulars by name and was chatting them up. Ordered a drink, and the waited another 10 minutes before she had a break in her "Friends" conversation to take my order. Fajita bowel with chicken arrived and for a chain place was actually very good. I was annoyed that I was ignored for the rest of the meal because barmaid was so into chatting with friends and regulars. Wanted another drink, refill on water......never came. 4 on food....1 on service. read more

Absolutely loved this place. Food and atmosphere were great. It's a cozy sports bar type environment which I loved. The menu is set to please even the pickiest eater. Options range from steak and seafood to regular ole burgers and almost anything in between. We ordered broccoli cheddar soup and seafood chowder. Both were very good. The star of the meal was the seafood trio. Scallops shrimp and fish were all cooked to perfection. Nothing was over done or rubbery. It was truly enjoyable. Our server was very sweet and attentive. Service was down with perfect timing. Really not a bad thing to say. Found the prices to be reasonable. Would definitely recommend. read more

In a city full of bars and restaurants the 9s remains a gem. The place is full of locals and regulars. Peter makes it easy to feel like you are now a member of the 9s family! read more

Great place to watch a game. Food is ok. Service fine. 99 is a good place to go when you can't think of anywhere else to go. Prices are reasonable. read more

Update: The 99 customer service representatives responded and made things right. It's good to see that they care about the food they are serving and their customers, especially in this economy when loyal customers are a key to success and survival. read more

Horrifying. Let me say our waitress was great. Now for everything else. My daughter ordered plain pasta. First time it was just this side of crunchy so I asked for it to be redone. Second time it came out in hard clumps. I asked to see a manager. The manager literally told me the pasta is cooked in the morning and reheated and that is done in every 99 restaurant and if I was not satisfied I should not go to a 99. Horrified!!! I've been to many 99 restaurants and never had this food experience. I cannot even begin to describe the manager!! read more

I love their seafood chowder!! It was filled with seafood not just potato like California does it, you get the real deal!!! The Crab cake and Molten Chocolate cake ice cream was A-OK! My pasta had a lemon-y taste but I really like the garlic parmesan crusted shrimp oven-roasted now that was good! My husband ordered the triple decker turkey club, which he said was pretty good and filling. I had to order the dessert cause i was having a sweet tooth, the molten cake was not that great. So I wouldn't get it. The service was great. Her name might have been KIM like D O. state I forgot to write it down. But she was excellent. She had dark hair 5'2 ish and so friendly. She told us were to go outside of boston to try great seafood. I love people who are nice enough to let others know where the locals eat!! A+ for her!!! The place is clean, great lighting, friendly workers and even the restroom was clean!! If you want to not eat at a denny's if they have one there then you should try this place. It's great for your money and they are friendly.. read more

Great service! Very sweet, kind and knowledgeable bartenders. Food is BAR FOOD - don't expect anything more than that! Just so you know, no more potato skins. So sad!! read more

Friendly neighborhood bartender and servers Excellent Burger with Vermont Cheddar and potatoes. But I'm reviewing because they helped me find my Car Keys. They were still in my bag in my car, but they walked around inside and outside the parking lot to find Nothing. I thanked the manager for the effort. I will be sending a Thank You card because I made the staff waste time while I was panicking about losing my keys! read more

Absolutely love it here. I come here every Sunday with my boyfriend and his brother and the waitresses always greet us with the outmost kindness. They have beers already ready for us before we even order. Thank you 99 Woburn! read more

I had a terrible experience in the 99's on Mishuwam Rd Woburn. I was just in there this past Saturday night 9/18, I had ordered cauliflower bites for myself and the chicken tenders and French fries (kids meal) for my son. The cauliflower bites came out right away, on the other hand, after waiting 15 minutes for my son's meal to come (which it still hadn't) we left with neither of us eating. We went out to have dinner together not watch each other eat. The Pepsi and milk we drank got compted, so thanks for that. I would've left 0 stars if I could've!! read more

I've been coming to this restaurant for a while now, and I haven't seen staff treated so bad as I have recently. The male manager with grey hair and a beard was yelling at one of his staff which you could hear from the restaurant. From the sound of it, it wasn't something to be screamed at for. I have seen him treat multiple staff with disrespect and I will not be doing my business there anymore read more

This Location was next door to the hotel I was staying at. The inside was worn, run down and in desperate need of a remodel. The food however was great. I ordered the Steak Ceaser salad and the steak was cooked perfectly. The romaine lettice was very fresh and crisp. I enjoyed it and will order it again in the future. I'm a fan of 99 restaurants, this one just looks like it was the 1st location... REMODEL read more

My family and I dined at this location on November 1st. Our server Charles was incredible. My sister-in-law has Down syndrome and he was amazing with her. He joked around with my girls who are typically very shy. Typically when we dine out with my sister-in-law most servers do not know how to take her comments. He rolled right with the punches. Thank you Charles for giving us one of the best dining experiences we've had. Much appreciation. read more

Gross is the word I would use to describe this place. The bar was filthy and Not kept up. Behind the bar a mouse was openly having a dance party, the floor reminded me of a movie theater from the 80's. But what was really gross was the disregard of the patrons. The hotel I am staying at told me the 99 was open till 11. I walked over and the sign by the door said 11. When I sat down and asked for I menu I was told they stopped serving food at 9. Then at 10 they stopped serving drinks. When I mentioned to the bartender that the sign says 11 he gave me a lame excuse how it's the managers decision. If it was his choice he would keep serving. Like I said in the beginning this place is just gross. read more

So I recently came to town for a large renovation and will be here for probably 2 yrs? I am currently staying at a hotel close to the Restaurant, food great,service Great (Steph) Stephanie and Meagan ROCK! Great personalities and always smiling! Well maybe not always because every time the "Mgr"would be in there presence behind the bar, she would suck the energy right out of those 2 smiling faces?That's 3rd time I witnessed her being so frompy. Not good energy for staff let alone customers seeing happen? GREAT place when the bartenders are left alone ! Keep smiling ladies! read more

I will say that walking into the place I was kind of disappointed, I don't like chains like this normally, and the last time my BF and I went to one of their locations (spitting distance from home) was over a year ago --- if it was good food, I would maybe go more often. We were meeting people at this location, and so I didn't have a choice, really. Dinner was happening here. I figured I could find something that I liked. We sat at the bar, cause it would have been impossible to fit more people in the booth with our friends. Jodi the bartender served us. I have to say this was probably the most pleasant visit to a 99 I've ever had! She wasn't pushy, she was helpful, welcoming. And she is the reason I am giving this location three stars. The food, was as always a miserable excuse for food, they did have a decent appetizer (the name of which I now forget...) some kind of wrap. I liked that, and kind of wish I'd just ordered it again for my meal. I got a chicken caesar salad, and my BF got steak tips and chicken tenders. I ended up picking at his food, and ignoring my own. Jodi asked if I wanted my salad to go. I said, no thank you. She said, did you like it? You hardly touched it! I said, no - sorry. I didn't like it. She took it off the check! I have NEVER had this happen. Ever. She said "if you didn't eat it cause it wasn't good, you shouldn't have to pay for it!" She won me over. Generally speaking, I could leave the Ninety Nine alone and be fine. If I have to go back for any reason, I'm coming here, and fingers crossed, the service will be as good. read more

SERVICE = K-i-i-i-i-M-M! I don't even want to call her a 'waitress'.. She was our buddy! She was friendly and really contributed to an enjoyable experience. Our table was exchanging trivia-type questions with Kim and even one other waitress. Hurry, think fast.. "What is the deadliest shark?" FOOD = We weren't eating at a world renowned restaurant.. but the food was fine. My mom and I split the "Combo Creations" deal for only $14.99. We ended up getting the Top Sirloin Steak with the Cedar Plank Salmon with two sides and a biscuit. My sisters got the pasta as one of their sides--we were pleasantly surprised that pasta was a side option especially since they give you a good size portion of it. PAYMENT/PRICING = Credit cards accepted. Reasonable. The pricing is manageable.. here's a breakdown of pricing.. Starters: $7.79 - $9.99 Steaks: $13.49 - $17.99 Seafood: $10.49 - $13.99 Pasta: $10.99 - $11.99 Chicken: $9.99 - $11.99 Salad Entree: $7.99 - $9.99 Steakburgers: $7.99 - $8.99 Sandwiches: $8.49 - $8.99 Sides: All $2.49 unless otherwise specified--I think $2.49 is too much, but the salad side is worth it Lunch menu is on the cheaper side of course. PARKING = Free lot.. we went in for dinnertime on a Friday night and it was packed. I think people were driving in and leaving because the lot was full. *EXPERIENCE* = Aaaah, that was probably my best chain restaurant experiences. We were all tired, but the food and Kim really helped give us an energy boost. Without Kim, I'd probably give this place three stars. Just goes to show how important customer service is.. P.S.. Deadliest Shark = Bull Shark read more

99 reasons not to go back... I honestly am out of words to describe how disappointed I am. Got there, took forever to get served and the place wasn't even busy. Ordered some mozzarela sticks and it looked worse than the ones I buy frozen at the grocery store from Fridays. Then I ordered what I thought it was one of the safests things on the menu "The official burger of the Boston Red Sox" and the meat tasted burned. They came back with another one not only tasting burned too but greasy and pink in the middle. Obviously wasn't a problem with the meat but either the dirty grill or the person cooking it. Needless to say that after that I just had to ask for the check and leave... Never going back! read more

It was displeasing to say the least. The food was disappointing, the service was scarce, and the menu was boring. With all of the options in town, I won't waste my time here again. read more

I will typically choose to eat here when looking for a decent meal with fast service and my visit to this location met my expectations. You start off with a complimentary bowl of popcorn. Our waitress came over quickly to take our drink order and our dinner order just a short bit later. I went with one of their new menu items, the lemon rosemary chicken tips over rice with broccoli on the side. My dinner was good with no real complaints. My buddy ordered the ribs and actually had to send them back as he said they were rubbery. He opted for the prime rib instead, which he said was pretty good. All in all, a quick decent meal with friendly service. read more

Nice and friendly. Food was OK. Not great, but ok. The interior was old and somewhat drab. The service was great though! Being here on a business trip, I would not recommend this place, as there are quite a few other, similarly priced restaurants where food will be less like Denny's. read more

this location is close to us but tonight was the last time we will go there for dine in or take out i picked up our order and it was ready when i got there it was a few minutes early in fact ...brought it home and it was less than a 5 minute drive and the food was NOT hot!!!! ICE COLD!!! had issues before and figured we would try them again....all set with this location...the one in wilmington is a further drive for us but SO much better than this location!!! read more

Clearly a poor choice. Was served a frozen salad with salt on it. Just another tired restaurant chain with poor serves.

Good bar with chain food -- and that's a compliment. Usually bars have rotten food, This is semi-healthy by still feels like a neighborhood joint. Great service, reasonable food. Reminds me of Weatherspoons in London, if you know that chain. I had Turkey Tips, which is a BBQ flavored turkey dish. Was actually quite tasty! Had the usual macro brews, but also a few micros including a reasonable IPA. I'd definitely come back. read more

We went on a Sunday after an afternoon Sox game...they were short staffed but the manager (Anna) realized that we had been waiting just a little too long. She sat everyone and took drink and food orders. She showed genuine care for customers. Thank you for going the xtra mile. For that... I give them 5 stars read more

Place is a dump. Time to redecorate and replace the carpet and decor. Feels like I walked back into a 1974 time warp. Then again it is Woburn, so my expectations aren't very high. I'm no snob either, I like hole-in-the-wall joints if the food and service is exceptional. That's not the case here. Been here on two occasions, both times, the mouth-breathing locals at the bar with their hats on backwards and Bruins jersey's couldn't take their eyes off my wife. As though they've never seen an attractive woman before. It was becoming borderline confrontational the way they were staring and twisting around in their stools. Classless. Our first time there the waitress seemed as though we were bothering her just being there. Our second time we had a friendly waiter, decent service. Last time I was there I was seated next to a family having a dysfunctional argument that would have been more appropriate to have at home...or just not in a restaurant. read more

Not sure if this the correct location because we ordered using DoorDash and had it delivered to our hotel and I couldn't find how to identify the correct one. I ordered the smothered steak tips along with mashed potatoes and broccoli. OMG everything was fantastic even the broccoli which tasted fresh and just the right amount of cooked. My partner got the Vermont Cheddar burger and really enjoyed it. We also got the Mocha bite petite treat and the Oreo cake bite petite treat and they were both delicious. Great food! read more

Chose the 99 for a late meal before checking in to our hotel. They are usually very consistent, so it was a low-risk decision. Huge mistake. I'll just list the issues: No utensils, cold french fries, cold lobster(I ordered the hot buttered lobster roll), Cole slaw that was so soupy, my mashed potatoes were "under water" to the cole slaw juice, no bottled water(they offered tap water instead after taking my order for bottled water). Truly disappointing. read more

Never had a bad meal here. It is bar food though so don't expect much moor but the tips are good and the soups are good also. Not fine dining but great for a larger family as waitstaff is great and the $$ is reasonable. Great for a quick bite also! read more

So the food was great but the service at this location sucks. The waiter we had was rude, and didn't do his job. Waiter brought over our food didn't say anything to see if we needed anything else before just putting it down. We need refills and ketchup but the waiter never came to our table until it was time for the check. Waiter just kept throwing our things down on the table and had no respect. I will not be back and anyone that asks me if they should go I will tell them it's not worth it. I'd just stay away and pick another place that may really want your service. read more

Nice restaurant! First time here. Waitress and trainee were awesome! Nice, clean and good food!
