NORCROSS, GA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 10, 1999--Tanner's Restaurant Group Inc. (OTC BB:ROTI.O), a developer, operator and franchiser of branded restaurant concepts, Thursday announced that on May 24, 1999, it opened its first Crabby Bob's Seafood Grill restaurant in the Buckhead Crossing shopping center located in Woodstock, Ga. Commenting on the opening, Clyde Culp, chairman of the board of Tanner's, said, "We are extremely pleased at having opened our first Crabby Bob's location. Today's health conscious consumers are increasingly including fish in their diets, and Crabby Bob's delivers a variety of fresh fish entrees in a casual dining, family-oriented atmosphere. We print our menus daily so fish lovers in the Atlanta area no longer have to pay $20 to $30 a plate for the freshest fish available." Culp continued, "Sales in our first two weeks of operations exceeded our expectations. We take this as a signal that Crabby Bob's is filling a niche in the restaurant market in which there is not a lot of competition in the Atlanta area. We believe that there is market potential for Crabby Bob's in other geographic regions and look forward to continuing the expansion of the concept." About Tanner's Restaurant Group Inc.: Tanner's Restaurant Group is a developer, operator and franchiser of branded restaurant concepts. The company's flagship operation is the 10-location chain of Rick Tanner's Original Grill restaurants centered in the southeastern United States.

The menu offers more than 40 entrees, 15 appetizers and 15 vegetables and side dishes, with an emphasis on food that is fresh and cooked to order. Meals are available on both an eat-in and take-out basis, and the restaurant is positioned between home meal replacement concepts, and traditional sit-down restaurants that are not designed to cater to the take-out business.

Although the company believes the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the company's actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
