good call
Sound decision made
Good call acknowledges that someone made a wise decision or correct judgment: Good call on bringing umbrellas—it's pouring.
It validates another person's choice after the outcome proves them right.
The phrase can also be self-directed when reconsidering: Actually, that's a good call.
Sometimes used sarcastically when a decision backfires spectacularly.
