“We are an entertainment service company that specializes in small ensemble/DJ combos. We performed at our first wedding at The Herb Lyceum in early October and were blown away. First of all, the garden and grounds are LOVELY, the food is OUTSTANDING and the staff were all WONDERFUL. Everyone there was friendly and professional, and truly allowed us to do what we do best, and we felt fully supported to do our jobs. Often with outdoor venues, we have issues with power, but not here! We had ample power for the ceremony, dinner reception and the dance party under the tent, running some heavy wattage sound and lights. We very much look forward to coming back to do more events in the future!“

My recommendation is to do a wine tasting before 5.30pm when that closes, to decide your favorite wine, then go to dinner and order a bottle.“

“What a wonderful spot to grab a meal. We had about a 20 minute wait because we did not have a reservation but it went by quick. The restaurant is a bit on the rustic side but it had a ton of charm. While we waited for our meal we were serenaded by a gentleman playing the piano. For our meals I had the small prime rib served with mashed butternut squash and my girlfriend had the turkey dinner. The prime rib was so flavorful and cooked perfectly. We absolutely loved this place.“

Didn't want fries (although my wife got them with her excellent haddock plate and they were very good) However, I wanted onion rings and had to order them as an appetizer and there were just too many so most went to waste. Clean and bright atmosphere, friendly service as well.“

“Me and my family have been coming to this particular 99 in Westford, MA for several years now. I regret to say that their quality of food has diminished over the years, unfortunately. Still, it's decent at best overall. You're honestly better off going to a Cracker Barrel (unless you want to watch a Boston sports team game on the TV; CB has a better overall menu, selection and tastier comfort food). Though if you want to go for just adult beverages and to watch the game, this is still a good place to do just that (IF the Red Sox win, kids eat free)! This 99 is convenient cuz it's right off of 110 in between the Littleton and Westford exits off of 495.

Parking: There are parking spots all around this restaurant, including 3 handicap and 2 EV spots.

Kid-friendliness: Several booth and tables that can accommodate whoke families, staff is friendly and kids eat free here IF the Red Sox win the day before.

Wheelchair accessibility: 3 parking spots in the lot right next to the entrance. Wheelchair accessible doors and seating. Not sure about the bathroom though.“
