very good

Well above average

Very good signals approval or satisfaction, often from someone in a position to evaluate: a teacher marking work, a supervisor acknowledging a report, a waiter confirming an order.

It's warmer than adequate but less enthusiastic than excellent.

Very good, you may proceed.

The phrase can sound formal or slightly stiff in casual conversation.
