Lanecia's Point of Interest

99 Restaurant was founded by Charlie Watkins in 1969 O'Charley's Inc. operates a chain of casual dining restaurants that feature aged prime rib, chicken, seafood, pasta, and homemade rolls and salad dressings. The O'Charley's family includes more than 260 restaurants clustered in New England, the Southeast, and Midwest.

During the early years of the new millennium, O'Charley's added the Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub and Stoney River Legendary Steaks chains to its arsenal. when I go to 99 I get usually my favorite dish Chicken Parm. When I go i go with my whole family its a nice resturant that many older people love mainly because of the famous chowder soup that they serve on saturdays all day. When you get seated at a table you get free pop corn , even though its salty i still love it.

 99 is located in Wallingfor.CT or Middletown,CT
