Goodfellas Cafe — Restaurant in Corona

Food, 5 stars. Service, 5 stars. Atmosphere, 5 stars. Menu, 5 stars. Experience, 5 stars!

This was actually my second visit, but I wasn't leaving reviews then. LONG REVIEW COMING NOW!

FOOD: I first ordered a tea. Check this out. THEY DON'T ASK YOU what type of tea you want. They actually bend down and get what looks like a little cigar box and they swing open the top for you. Inside the box is an assortment of teas. You choose which one you want. It reminds me of some old mafia movies when they open up a box and take a cigar to smoke. They also give you a mini kettle in case you want to top off your cup with more hot water. They also give you a bottle of honey. That's a really cool and fun experience. Yet, it's simple.

Next, We ordered an appetizer called Dino's Mozzarella Sticks! I do not like mozzarella sticks. However, Goodfellas Cafe changed that! Dino's mozzarella sticks were very delicious! They are deep-fried and served with marinara sauce. The marinara sauce was on another level, compared to other sauces I've tried when I try to give other mozzarella sticks a chance. The sticks were hot and fried perfectly. The cheese was on point!

My BREAKFAST SPECIAL was the French Connection. Absurdly delicious. 4 generous pieces of toast, 2 eggs, 2 bacon, and 2 sausages. Every bite was on point! Though I've only been here twice, this place has the best sausages I've had in a very long time. Their blend of dusted cinnamon and powdered sugar mixed with some syrup and butter was to die for. Oh, and they have some wine on display.

My 2 family members ordered the Goodfellas Combo, which came with 2 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausages, and ham. You also choose if you want hash browns or homemade fries and your choice of pancakes or biscuits and gravy. I tasted their food, and I will order it for myself next time.

SERVICE: Services was great. We were checked on and taken care of.

ATMOSPHERE: Excellent! The walls are covered with pictures, frames, newspaper clippings, and other mobster paraphernalia. I saw autographs as well. There was a wait to get in. However, if the bar stools are open, you can just request to sit there and not have to wait for a table. Everyone seemed to be having a blast eating there. I heard people talking about their favorite gangster movies, while we were telling each other different lines from various gangster movies. I will definitely...

Title: A Nostalgic Culinary Journey at Goodfellas Cafe!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you're looking for a dining experience that transports you back to the era when Goodfellas reigned supreme, look no further than Goodfellas Cafe on 1090 Pomona Road in Corona, CA.

From the moment you step in, you're enveloped in an ambiance that exudes classic charm and a touch of nostalgia. The decor and atmosphere perfectly capture the essence of that bygone era, making you feel like you're part of something truly special.

The culinary journey was nothing short of extraordinary. We sampled the Chicken Club and John Gotti's Country Fried Steak, and let me tell you, it was like a flavor explosion in every bite. The Chicken Club was packed with succulent, perfectly cooked chicken, crisp bacon, and fresh veggies, all sandwiched between slices of the softest bread I've ever had. The John Gotti's Country Fried Steak, however, stole the show. It was hands down the best I've ever had - crispy, golden perfection on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside.

And then came dessert - a slice of Carrot Cake and Lemon Cake. Let me tell you, I've never tasted a lemon cake quite like this one. The perfect balance of tartness and sweetness, it was a true delight for the taste buds. The Carrot Cake was equally divine, with just the right amount of spice and a creamy frosting that was sheer perfection.

The staff at Goodfellas Cafe were attentive and courteous, adding to the overall delightful experience. Their knowledge and passion for the menu were evident, and they made sure we felt like valued guests throughout our visit.

In a city filled with dining options, Goodfellas Cafe stands out not just for its delectable cuisine, but for its ability to transport you back to a time when Goodfellas were everything.

I can't wait to return to Goodfellas Cafe for another unforgettable meal. Kudos to the team for creating such a remarkable...

Atmosphere was all right, staff was fairly friendly, but the food was terrible! I ordered one of the house specialties eggs Benedict, it came out ice cold.I don't mean ice cold like it was hot and then it got cold. I mean ice cold like it was put up there cold ,like they took hollandaise sauce that was cold from the fridge and thought leaving it up on the heater for 20 minutes would warm it up enough to serve it I know this because I saw it sitting there the entire time. When I let the waitress know she offered to" heat it up" I asked her if that meant to put it in the microwave to which she replied yes. I'm not a gourmet chef but even I know that you're not supposed to microwave poached eggs,kind of defeats the purpose of ordering poached eggs, my daughter's meal came out cold as well, not ice cold but room temperature . I asked if they could reheat my daughter's food because no big deal microwaving scrambled eggs we're not too picky and neither is she .I let the waitress know that I no longer wanted my order she said okay. 15 minutes later now that my wife and my son have eaten and they are ready to go my daughter's food comes out along with mine even though I let her know I no longer wanted it. Not wanting to be difficult I took the food . It was the worst eggs Benedict I've ever had in my entire life, but it was hot. The rest of my plate however I could tell was the same plate look to me like this scraped off the old eggs Benedict refried everything that was on my plate and put it back my potatoes were a 50/50 mix of charred black and completely uncooked potatoes. So after waiting forever to finally get a table it was not a great experience. I will say however my wife's turkey melt was very good. And my son's breakfast which was the same breakfast my daughter ordered was good as well. So I'm 50/50 on this place might give it another shot to see if it was...
