I write this review because this place, which is really in a place, that shouldn't be a place. Located right off the 91 freeway in Corona, GoodFella's Cafe is an unassuming structure that I would barely notice as I was driving by. However, the parking lot behind the restaurant was quite full when I arrived at 12:30 in the afternoon on a Wednesday. I was coming from Long Beach, and meeting a friend from Riverside, so we chose this restaurant at random since it seemed a mid point.
The interior is classic old style. Lots of wood, plenty of booths, a beer and wine bar (this is basically a lunch counter) and standard two top tables.
I arrived early, and was seated immediately. My server was friendly with a smile. You could tell without asking that she had worked here for sometime, and appeared to enjoy her work.
She promptly brought me an iced tea that I had requested while waiting for my friend to arrive. I took the opportunity to peruse the menu, which was quite extensive. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Although I can't testify as to what the breakfast and dinner crowd was like, I would confidently wager that they do a brisk business all day.
Once I was joined by my friend, I ordered the Bishop pastrami sandwich. They serve pastrami 3 ways. Although my sandwich was very good, my friend got the Rueben, and I found myself envious of his sandwich. We both got a salad and fries as sides.
Bottom line here, is if the opportunity presents itself, I wouldn't hesitate to return.
