    As usual, food was wonderful enhanced by the care and attention given to us by the maiter di, Sam and our waiter Mario I can spend my money on good food anywhere, but good attentive service provides a family feeling that cannot be replicated

    Consistently outstanding after so many years! Food, service, ambiance, parking. Not many place left where the smiles are refreshing, the freshness of the veal, chicken, pasta, salads desserts and extensive wine list continue to deliver. Real candlelit tables, Franks Sinatra both recorded and in -person who does that anymore??! Love this spot.

    Came back to Goodfellas after years and did not disappoint. Service and food were excellent. Danielle, the bartender was very friendly and accommodating . She makes a delicious French martini…and Sammy made sure everything was perfect. Thank you so much. We will be back soon.

    Goodfellas provided excellent service, from the valet and coat closet attendants to the hostess and wait staff. The food was absolutely delicious and so filling. Plenty for tomorrow’s lunch. I would highly recommend Goodfellas!

    Amazing food and love the old school dining atmosphere. Wasn't fond of our table however. It was a two person table in between a party of 6 and another table where the couple sitting next to us fought the whole time. I feel the tables were too close together. Next time we will sit in the bar area. Will definitely be back!!

    Our group had 4 different sauces on the 4 plates we had. We all tried each others. One better than the other. We will definitely be back. Great food and great service!

    Been going here for some time now and every visit the host is so engaging and friendly. The staff and the food are excellent. Love it. Just celebrated a milestone birthday here and they could not have been more accommodating. There was a DJ playing some great tunes and the bar scene is fun.
