Carolyn...The food is great! Im hooked. I have some less than great soul food mostly from the Newark side and Everything I had at Carolyns has been great. I love the Catfish dinners they are fried golden to perfection they are popular and often sell out if you order late, like i mostly do. By late I mean after 4:30pm because Carolyn's closes early. The Baked Mac and Cheese is everything, as are the Yams and Collards. (Yams and Catfish sold out today Im sad) I've been ordering from here for over a year and will definitely continue.

I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. My food arrived cold, and the pork chop was overcooked, resembling something that had been prepared the day before. The macaroni was mushy and overcooked, while the rice and gravy were too salty. I won't be ordering from this place again. I've tried multiple times to reach them, but I always get sent to voicemail. The cook should be ashamed of the poor quality of the food.

I placed my order an hour and 20 minutes before closing, but as soon as I submitted it, they quickly canceled it. I called to check if it was a mistake, and the man on the phone insisted that they don't cancel orders and suggested I try again. I did try again, but they canceled my order once more. I attempted to call back to speak with the same man, but I was directed to voicemail. This experience was a waste of time.

Got it off of one of the ?bring me my dang food? apps. It did not disappoint. I grew up/still live in the south and it?s hard to find good soul food anymore, even in the south. Well! This is the SPOT. I got the Oxtails with rice, collards and mac. It waslike the lord came down and cooked it herself. Thank you all for this amazing food after a long day. I will be back! 100% thegreatest.

I placed an order for pickup at 12:50 and was informed that it would take an hour—no problem. However, when we arrived, we ended up waiting an additional 45 minutes and ultimately decided to cancel our order. Other customers were also facing long wait times. Perhaps we’ll give it another try another day.

I ordered the oxtail with rice and gravy, macaroni and cheese, and cabbage, and it was absolutely delicious. The portion sizes were generous. While it may not taste exactly like my mom's cooking, it's a fantastic alternative if you can't get to her. Overall, I would rate the food 5/5.

Apparently, it's really hard to remember to add the bread for a MEATLOAF SANDWHICH. This restaurant has great food but the owner needs to get rid of the mediocre staff who can't remember that a sandwich means the order needs bread.This is the second time. How brainless can you be.

Not sure if this is the only soul food place in jersey city but if it is , sheesh.. restaurant itself needs a serious revamp. Outdated interior has a funny smell . Don’t know what be on the Mac cheese that it look like that. Hours are ridiculous.
