GoodFellas Bagel Deli — Restaurant in Lansing

Okay let me say this, i never usually write reviews. This place had become one of my favorite spots, and i loved to get their GoodFellas Fries. Top tier food, and in the summer it was $3 bucks.

I should also state, this is only a review on the fries, because I can't stand eggs. So take this as you will.

Now it's winter, times has changed and price went up. Okay, no worries. I totally get that with inflation and everything. Went to $3 bucks to $5. That's fine, i was hoping maybe they'd even fill the container a little bit more compared to in the summer.

What ended up leading me here was the last two times I've been to Goodfellas, which has been past the summer. My fries have been missing elements to it. There's less potatoes, barely any cheese at all, let alone on the potatos, no green scallops and no chipotle sauce. For both times. Which is sad. I'm just sad. Cause at that point, it's just baked potatos with a small glob of cheese hidden in the right corner and two bacon bits. Definitely was not the quality i had been buying in the summer. Which for me, is no longer appealing to buy. Mind you I really liked this place! I think the recipe is great, it's just the execution that falls behind.

Originally in the summer this place was on their A game. I would always see an middle aged woman and i think she had been there a lot longer, so she always made my fries amazing. I thought that would continue but i also realise there's probably new employees, that's okay.

In the end, I'm writing this because someone should know you might not get the fries you ask for, and you deserve that. Save your money and make it at home, better chance of it coming out the...

Decided to try goodfellas bagel for first time, sadly the only time. Customer service was friendly which is the reason for 2 stars. But the food alone... never again. I ordered breakfast burritos and various sandwiches( the don, lucky, bada bing) and some hash browns for my family to try. The hash were not fully cooked and falling apart, I put them in our airfryer to cook a Lil longer and honestly even after that they didn't really taste good( greasy taste). The burritos contain chorizo, potatoes, eggs and some peppers and onion... never thought you can screw up a breakfast burrito. The potatoes were burnt black but still hard( not cooked properly).. peppers and onions were cut too big and also still hard from not being cooked properly. The sandwiches were edible ( okay, no wow factor like i would have like) but not worth the price at all. Hate to say this but mcdonald's steak and bagel meal is way better and worth the money. Sad because the service and the atmosphere( inside meijer city market) is nice...

2021; this place is the bomb! one of the best breakfest sandwiches you can get in Lansing! update 2024; so, ordered via ubereats and it was a bit laggy but service overall was prompt. person on phone @ deli answered my questions promptly and kindly. I ordered the capo and new burrito. the capo was on point and hasn't changed a bit. the capo was an excellent choice with alot of flavor. the newer burritos however are rather bland and cafeteria style food totally diveragent from their life changing bagels. I would not recomend the burritos. I ordered fingerling potatoes and received soggy hashbrowns at $6. I wanted the ol' school awesome fingerling potatoes with bacon and that swizzy sauce! ugh typical I.M.E. with goodfellas service that they will send something substantial close to original if they run out of that product. overall better service from new shop. mixed feelings about some of the new product and service. the hand cut potatoes and prepack drinks are a...
