Sharing Over 50 Years of Southern Cooking!
Rooted in Community, Raised on Respect
We didn’t just open Carolyn’s Soul Food in Jersey City — we opened it for Jersey City. From day one, our family made it a point to be a place where everyone is welcome and everyone leaves full — not just in belly, but in heart.
We’re proud of our roots, proud of our culture, and deeply grateful to still be here—serving you, our community, after all these years.
Made With Love, Just Like Home
We believe food has the power to bring people together — whether you're celebrating with family, catching up with friends, or just stopping by for a taste of comfort after a long day. Our goal is to make sure every visit feels like Sunday dinner with the ones you love.
So pull up a chair, grab a fork, and let us feed your soul.
Welcome to Carolyn’s Soul Food
Since day one, we've stayed true to our values: treating every customer like kin and every plate like a promise to serve only the best.
We use only the freshest, highest quality ingredients, because we believe real food doesn’t need shortcuts. It just needs time, care, and tradition. That’s the kind of cooking you can taste.
