What I love about the advent of deal coupon sites is the fact that it gives an opportunity for me to try new restaurants at a fraction of the actual cost or retail price. 

And I get to schedule it ahead of time and follow through instead of postponing it again and again to a later date.  We all don’t want the coupons to expire collecting dust in our purses, laptop bags or drawers.  That has probably happened to you and me so the earlier you claim the deal, the less likely coupons expire on you.

Such is the case with GoodFellas Steaks and Burgers.  This restaurant has been under my radar for quite some time and we finally got the chance to try it last weekend.  There was a deal a few months ago at one of the deal sites taking 40% off their regular Prime Rib, which we grabbed the chance.  GoodFellas has an indoor and outdoor dining area and that specific Sunday, we decided to watch the rain while we ate our late lunch.

GoodFellas seemed very simple at one glance but it has that dapper feel from its wooden accents, dark upholstered furniture and Mafia-themed menu.  The restaurant is teeming with people usually during Saturday nights and from the dishes we ordered, I’d probably hang out more here too.

On the Table

Wise Guy Burger PHP 295

200-grammer honey cured bacon cheeseburger

We bought only one coupon because we wanted to order other items on their menu.  Since GoodFellas’ main thrust is steaks and burgers, Bubba decided to order burger.  First choice was their Margherita Burger which is basil, roasted tomato and mozzarella cheese.  Unfortunately they ran out of basil so the wait staff suggested their other bestseller which is the Wise Guy Burger.

You get the 200 grams weight you pay for as the thick charbroiled patty manifests that it’s a heavyweight.  It IS meat alright –without evident taste of extenders.  This bacon cheeseburger is dressed with lettuce, tomatoes and onions and all walled by the soft burger buns.  Thick and juicy, GoodFellas does know how to make ‘em burgers. 

Michael’s Prime PHP 995 (with deal coupon, it’s only PHP 445)

12-14 ounces US CAB (Certified Angus Beef) Prime Rib
