    Pastrami sandwich
    Joanna T.

    Driving back to LA from Temecula, we stumbled upon this gem of a place. We were in the mood for brunch/breakfast, and GoodFella's absolutely came through. The restaurant is spacious, and the walls are decorated with photos of old Hollywood stars and classic scenes from The Godfather, The Sopranos, and Goodfellas. The menu is extensive -- breakfast, lunch, and dinner options for everyone. I ordered the ham steak and eggs with home-fried potatoes and biscuits. My ham steak was huge with a nice char that gave it a smoky flavor. The biscuits were light and delicious. My daughter had the French toast and said it was so good that she could only eat half of it because the portion was generous. My husband enjoyed his pastrami sandwich and appreciated the hearty amount of meat. My only tiny wish is that they advertised that they serve sparkling wine -- I would have definitely ordered a mimosa! But that's just me, and it didn't take away from the experience at all. The excellent service, great food, and the fact that the place was packed tells you everything -- this is clearly a local favorite. We will definitely be back!

    Bacon and eggs

    After trying several breakfast spots in the Corona-Norco area. I have continued coming back to GoodFella's cafe due to their consistently good service, food, and experience. Let's start with the food. I ordered off the traditional breakfast portion of the menu. Today, I ordered polish sausage and eggs ($18.95) and my friend ordered bacon and eggs ($17.95). The traditional breakfasts include eggs your way; your choice of side including: potatoes (home fries or hash browns), cottage cheese, or fruit; and your choice of toast, pancake, or biscuits and gravy. Today I ordered the polish sausage with scrambled eggs, home fries, and sourdough toast. My meal came out warm and quick. The food itself was delicious and a large portion. Honestly, I could have had split with my friend. The service has always been consistently good at GoodFellas. The waiter was attentive and kept checking in on us to see if we were ready to order and continually filled our waters. While the waters do not engage in small talk, they are quick and attentive with their customers. Goodfellas does get busy on the weekends, but during the week there's no wait. There's plenty of tables and booths that offer a variety of seating.

    Four egg Mediterranean omelette w/hash browns and two thick pancakes

    Nothing to say but good things about this place. The name is exactly what it means. The place was packed when we got there on a Saturday around 12:30 pm. We were seated in a reasonable period of time and were glad to see that they offered a lot of breakfast items. The menu is extensive, from large-portion appetizers to full-on steak and other dinners. I decided on a 4 egg Mediterranean omelette. It comes with dual side options and I got the hash browns and pancakes. This place does not play when it comes to portions. I am a hearty eater who is trying to watch it with my mid-life but it was so delicious and lots to take home. Delicious olives, pepper, onions, mozzarella cheese ( comes w/salami and I opted out) . The plate was enough to easily feed two if not three, w/plenty of leftovers for another meal or two. Apparently they are known for their portions. The waitress was great, checked on us often. I ordered a coffee and it was probably the best restaurant coffee I have had. Ambiance was busy, large diner, mobby atmosphere, lots of memorabilia on the walls - see my video attached to this review. The menu has so many amazing sounding items on it and what I will try next is the 11oz chicken fried steak, available in a breakfast or a dinner. You can't go wrong with this place and the prices and food are excellent. Will update when I return about other options I've tried.

    The ambiance here is totally fitting the name. The wait staff uniforms are perfect. I had ham and scrambled eggs with biscuits and gravy and breakfast potatoes. The eggs and biscuits were cold. BUT the breakfast potatoes were amazing. The food just needs to be at least warm when served. The service is ok nothing special.

    Chicken avocado burger was super fresh but kinda bland. The fries killed it though  crispy and delicious

    Loved the nostalgia of this place! So great to see so many pics of all the greats and some VERY famous autographs oh, and the food is delicious. Especially breakfast, YUM. It's great to experience this place at least once. Service was great too.

    Goodfellas Cafe is probably the hottest breakfast spot in Corona. It may not be the most viral, but it is definitely the most consistent with a full parking lot and a wait during peak breakfast hours. The food here never fails to exceed our expectations, especially when it comes to portion sizes. While some people may not love huge portions, I personally enjoy being able to turn one meal into two. Goodfellas is a place my family and friends have consistently visited over the years, and the service is always friendly. The restaurant has a strong, well-executed theme that fits the Goodfellas name, with a gritty, old-school mob-style vibe that adds to the experience. It is always busy, and whether that is your thing or not is up to you, but for us, it has never disappointed. Next time, I'll take a cup of gravy to go!

    I recently tried GoodFella's Cafe while on a drive home from Corona (I don't live in the area). My friends and I loved how they really nailed it on the theme. The memorabilia in the entry way was pretty impressive too. Our server was really upbeat and friendly. We ordered a bunch of food and had a lot of left overs. We got the Rat Pack Sampler, Club Sandwich, Grilled Cheese and Fries. Everything was pretty good - think diner style. It didn't blow us out of the water, but was still good. I think the biggest pull here is all the photo-worthy areas. Also, it's always fun to try a restaurant you don't normally have in your area. If I'm ever driving through again, I'd definitely go back and try again. I also am curious about their breakfast, because it looked like they have some awesome offerings.

    Easily one of the best cafe's in the Inland Empire!!! Located just off the CA-91 in Corona, Goodfellas serves up a mean breakfast Monday through Friday until 12:30pm (2:30pm on weekends). Try their huevos rancheros... you will be satisfied!

    Huge portions and great food! The place was packed and we waited outside for about 10 minutes. Service was great and they have lot of menu options. Everything we got was good!

    We had been hiking in the area and needed a bite to eat before we headed back home. Found Goodfellas cafe by recommendations on Yelp. I was surprised that I had never heard of this place as being a fan of the movie! So glad we did. The place is filled with mobster memorabilia from the movie with the menu reflecting Italian home cooking. Service was excellent. Seated promptly and the waitress made some great recommendations since it was our first time there. Food was delicious and very filling. Restaurant was clean. Oldies playing in the background. I can't wait to come back and try more items.

    Omelette with potatoes
    Bartender Eddie M.

    Stopped by here on the way home. The service was fast and good. The interior is really nice. Its full of old school mobsters theme. Id come back again and try another dish.

    Wife had the pastrami sandwich which she like and with plenty of pastrami

    Green Chilaquiles's are amazing, the green chili tequilas have little pieces of pork meat with eggs…read moreon top, which gave you the perfect combination of flavors Pancakes are also very tasty and fluffy Steph is very kind and helpful

    Ever had to take back your words and eat them?…read more Such are my thoughts about El Cerrito Cafe. Quite awhile ago we had breakfast here. Their Chicken Fried Steak was not an experience I chose to remember, with uncooked heavy breading, and clearly not hand dipped. Even the gravy failed. So, it took us some 5+ years to return. It was only because the Yelp masses kept giving them the thumbs up that helped change my mind and try again. This time we left happy. My better half was very happy with his hard taco plate. The shredded beef filling was very good, and because there were three tacos, there was more than enough to ensure he had leftovers. The rice and beans were nicely seasoned as well. The rice never made it home, I found it too irresistable, so gobbled it down myself. Very unusual for me. Then came my breakfast burrito, the El Cerrito Burrito (my sneaky way of tasting all the traditional breakfast meats in one fell swoop). It's a hefty conglomeration of ham, sausage, and bacon, scrambled egg, fried potato, and big chunks of fresh avocado. Wonderful. A little over half of that came home for a second meal. And I could not get enough of their fresh, lightly spicy salsa. It paired perfectly with the burrito. So, while I still cannot vouch for their Chicken Fried Steak, I can assure you, we are going to add El Cerritos Cafe into our rotation of good, local breakfast spots and let bygones be bygones. Final tip, everything was moderately priced, making it a great choice for budget minded families. Service = great. Ambiance = super cute, rustic Western themed. Hospitality = very friendly The only thing missing? No homemade pies lovingly baked by the little ol' granny hiding in the back. I could get pretty excited over that!
