We hosted an event at Carnegie Hall and absolutely LOVED working with Just Soul. All of our guests said the food was delicious!!! There was plenty of it -- I always appreciate a caterer that does not skimp! The people serving the food were professional and graceful as they made their way around such a thick crowd. Every time I saw them weave through the super busy room, they were smiling. That makes such a difference! And Isabel and Sharon were a JOY to work with. Working with such a large institution is no joke when it comes to bureaucracy. Isabel and Sharon were generous and gracious in addressing each of our requests/requirements. 10 out of 10! Would work with again!! read more

Had it for an alumni event...chicken was tender and very tasty and hits the spot. Highly recommend!

Easy accessible via phone and website. Owner Sharon R and her assistant Isabella are so easy to communicate with about your orders from their establishment. The delivery of the ordered meals were right on the scheduled time to the Venue, and the meals were with hot temperature. Then came the meals serving was more than enough for my guests. The meals were tasty, delicious, and satisfying. I loved the pineapple chicken, the yams, and the rosemary lemon fish- delicious. Yes, I am going to refer this catering company to others. Thank you for delivering the promise of tasty cuisines. Maria S. read more

What a wonderful company!! They got in touch right away and were able to work with us to cater our short film. The food was fantastic. And they are very nice as well. I highly recommend using them for your event! read more

We selected "Just Soul Catering" for a special work event. Most of my communication was with Isabel, who was very professional, accommodating, responsive and pleasant to work with. Our guests LOVED the food and took several business cards. It was delicious. I loved the meatballs and I think the deviled eggs was a crowd favorite, one staff member told me: "I'm gonna need a 1000 of these packed to-go", and then another one had me dying laughing, when she said in a serious concerned voice tone: "Sharon (as though she knew her personally)... Sharon put olives in the devil eggs ... and it was a surprisingly delicious experience " then proceeded to eat more devil eggs lol. By the end of the event, there was barely any food left and people wanted to take the left overs! That's how good it was. Totally recommend! read more

Just Soul Catering is AMAZING!! I used them for our office Juneteenth event and the food was a HIT!! Everyone wanted to know where I got the food from. We ordered the vegetarian collard greens, yams, curry chicken, curry tofu, Jerk chicken, rice and the banana pudding for dessert. Needless to say, there was barely anything left in those trays. Everything was to die for. I could go on and on, but I'll stop here. If you haven't tried them, you need too. Sharon and her team are fantastic!!! Thanks Y'all! We'll be calling upon you again and again. read more

We used Just Soul for a memorial service in the fall . Sharon was great to talk with and helped me figure out what types of dishes would work for our event . The day of the event our food was delivered early with extra supplies - all of the dishes were delicious and so well seasoned . Our guests raved about the dishes - we had two types of meatballs , cauliflower bites and deviled eggs . I'm thrilled to find a local caterer that not only has amazing food , but has a social justice outlook as well . I'm a home cook but I can't wait to have my Just Soul Christmas dinner this year! Kudos to you Sharon! read more

Recently used them to cater for my daughter's sweet 16 party. We had fried chicken wings, baked catfish in lemon butter & rosemary, rice and peas, Mac and cheese, veggie chowmein, cornbread and salad. The food was soo good and went very quickly, the catfish was a hit! Several people were amazed it was catfish, they thought it was salmon because it tasted so good! Great communication and reasonable prices. I would highly recommend them and would use them again for future events. read more

My experience with Just Soul Catering was great. Communication and understanding of my needs was great from the beginning. Delivery was smooth and my guest loved the food. The fried chicken and curry goat were a hit! read more

Just Soul Catering was exceptional with the food and the customer service. I ordered cornbread, collard greens, mac and cheese, rice and peas, turkey wings, fish, and oxtail, and everything came out splendidly. Everyone at the party was asking about the food, and I'll be booking her for another event. I had about 35-40, and I ordered full trays. What I ordered was more than enough. Thank you so much! read more

I work with an organization that supports feminist and queer activists around the world and we wanted to offer them some delicious comfort food during a gathering. I was so happy to find Just Soul. Not only was the food wonderful, Sharon and her team were so helpful, warm, efficient, and responsive. Everything was perfect and it was such a pleasure to work with them. I recommend them highly and look forward to working with them again! read more

Just Soul catered for an organization I work with. It was one of the first large public gatherings we've had since the pandemic and the amazing food really added to the celebration! People were raving about the food, especially the mac & cheese, cornbread, and red velvet cupcakes. My spouse was in attendance and didn't plan to eat but the smell alone made him turn around to grab a plate! Sharon was lovely to work with and the staff was very helpful. Highly recommend! read more

We just had the pleasure of meeting Sharon and trying her catering for a Black History Month event at our office. We ordered and highly recommend: coconut peas and rice, collard greens, fried catfish, oxtail, five cheese mac, and corn bread. Portion sizes were great so we had plenty for our group of 70 employees. Everyone RAVED about her food! Sharon also offers a speaking engagement for a small fee so we did that as well. She shared her inspiring story and background of becoming an entrepreneur. A few of our employees got to talk to her further so it was lovely getting to know her. She's been working on trying to get her own kitchen space up and running, so please reach out and support! read more

Just Soul Catering - a plate of everything - Caterers Near Me

I was planning a retirement party for two colleagues and we needed enough food for 30. The portions were more than I expected. Ms. Sharon was very professional and accommodating from the very start. I had a few changes to be made and she made it happen. The food was delivered ON TIME. (Thank you Mr. Kelly!) The food review, however, is why you're reading. The cauliflower was a hit. Everyone raved about it. The meatballs, fried chicken, and fish were great. The macaroni and cheese had people asking ME for the recipe. (If I had it, I'd be retiring too.) Even the plain white rice was delicious. Ms. Sharon made the evening great with her culinary skills, and made me look like a genius party planner. Without hesitation, I'd use her services again. And from now on, she's Aunt Sharon. read more

Healthy, hearty, and vibrant food. Attended a meeting and they catered (chicken skewers, salad, fruit, and banana pudding) and it was amazing. I generally don't like banana, but this was so good everyone took some home. read more

We've used Just Soul a few times now and will continue! Sharon and her team cook with their whole hearts. And people love the food! Just used her for a multi-day workshop over several weeks and everything was spot on! read more

If you're looking to order delicious, authentic, homecooked soul and Caribbean food, then look no further. Not only will the food warm your belly, Sharon and Donna will warm your heart. During the incredibly booked and busy month of June (graduations, Juneteenth celebrations and summer parties), these ladies still found room to take care of our small party. Though it was a modest order, it made an impact and left a punch. There was plenty of food, but very little leftovers, for the number of 2nds and 3rds folx went back for. We ordered the greens, cornbread, okra rice with coconut milk and the curried chicken with potatoes and carrots for the closing party of our theater's spring production. The portions are abundance, reasonably priced, ready right on time and provided with kindness. You could not ask for more. And if it's important to you, as it is to us, we centered our caterer choice on working with a local, black-owned and womyn-owned business. Also, please check out the mission-based non-profit fellowship program that provides support and training to build the workforce and community that feeds into Just Soul Catering, Reentry Rocks. Sharon is a guiding light and inspiration and the love comes through in her cooking. I only wish I was quick enough to get pictures, before everyone ate it all up! read more

The five stars isnt hype, it is a rating well deserved for this business. I found Just Soul when looking for a caterer who could do Caribbean food for a repass. Sharon willingness to cater so last minute spoke volumes. Throughout the entire process she was professional, empathetic and very communicative. It was also stress free, the delivery was seemless, even arrived early. Now lets talk about the best part...The FOOD hunty!! Everything was flavorful and while i was running around coordinating the event, the empty plates and empty food trays told me all i needed to know. While nothing disappointed, some of the superstars was the curry goat, mac and cheese, cornbread and banans pudding!! I highly recommend Sharon and her business for whatever your catering needs are. If i didnt live across the country in California, i would use her again in a heartbeat. If you are on the fence, let this be your sign to book Just Soul catering now!!! read more

Recently had a work event catered by Just Soul Catering. They did a fantastic job! They were punctual, provided us with all the necessities and very easy to reach with any questions.

Just Soul Catering serves the most incredible food!! I recently had the chance to enjoy some of their food, and it is absolutely sublime. I cannot recommend highly enough! read more

It was such a wonderful experience working with Sharon, truly. I ordered catering for a city government event, and Sharon set up a time to chat on the phone before we finalized the order. Sharon notified me that I might have ordered too much food for the amount of people that were attending the event, and I appreciated her integrity throughout our transaction together. Sharon's food was out of this world, and I'm still thinking about how amazing that food tasted! I'm pretty sure half the people at this event asked me to share out her information for future events. Sharon was on time, informative, and thought out everything for us. I really just had to pick it up. Thank you Sharon for catering this event for us, your food was the star of the show, and I can't wait until we can work together again!!! read more

Working with Sharon was amazing. We had the joy of having her catering today in my office for "Soul Food Friday" after getting recommended to her catering by so many people. And all those people were right! In addition to our office staff, even janitorial and building management came by because they were so allured. I can't wait to have Sharon back for another event. read more

I highly recommend working with Just Soul Catering for your next gathering. We ordered dinner for a 17 people and it was a huge hit! Folks LOVED the mac and cheese, corn bread, and banana pudding.

You can't get better than delicious food and supporting a woman of color owned business with such a powerful story. We are definitely working with them in the future!! read more

Wow, Just Soul provided the food for our party of 60 in Chelsea and everything was amazing! Our guests raved about the food and were asking about the caterer. We had the fried chicken, super cheesy Mac-and-Cheese, Fresh Salad, Wings, Cornbread, Collard Greens, Jambalaya and the magical Banana Pudding and it was all SO delicious! And, the servings were more than plentiful to serve our large party. The owner, Sharon, is fantastic to work with and such a wonderful person.

Just Soul is great! I recently had a birthday party and I wanted to make it a little special so I decided to have it catered. I found Just Soul and filled out their form. Sharon called me the next day and we went over what I selected, she answered all my questions, and I put in the order. The food arrived for the party and everyone loved it. The banana pudding in particular was spectacular. Would definitely recommend them! read more

We had Just Soul cater the Refiguring the Future Conference for around 350 people, and it was a huge hit. People continued to come up after, raving about the collard greens and banana pudding (the carrot cake was also one of the best I've ever had). Sharon and Dana are two of the sweetest people and it was a joy corresponding with Sharon through this whole process. Many participants talked about how delicious and NOURISHED they feel after, you truly can taste the soul in their food. Thank you to Just Soul for catering such an incredible lunch (with perfect portions) for the RtF conference! read more

We had just soul catering cater an event at Columbia University. Her food was delicious- the yams melted in your mouth, the collar greens were perfectly seasoned and I enjoyed both the fried chicken and the curry chicken. On top of that her service was exemplary. Highly recommend! read more

Great food with wonderful staff! The yams and fried chicken are delicious! Great for lunchtime catering events!

We used Just Soul Catering for the first time last week and let me tell you- it will NOT be the last! I do the ordering for an office of 50 people and there was something for everybody at lunch! The mac and cheese was the bomb dot com and them collard greens gave my spirit life. Sharon and Dana put their body and soul into everything they do. We will be having them come back time and time again! read more

I researched the company and used her for my son's graduation party and was very pleased with everything from beginning to end. She contacted me when I made my order to make sure she understood my needs made some suggestions and added food that was not on the menu. Then the food came promptly and the driver was friendly. All of my guest loved the food, it was very well seasoned. My guests constantly asked where It came from. I would definitely use her services again. read more

Just Soul catered our West Indian Day Parade party. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. We especially loved the collard greens and mac and cheese. This business is extremely professional and responsive. Sharon made sure everything was delivered on time and she checked in several times to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. read more

We just finished a brunch workshop of about 50 folks catered by Just Soul Catering and I could not have been happier with the end result. The food was delicious and abundant and very reasonably priced. But the best part of the experience was Sharon herself. She was lovely to work with - super responsive, friendly, kind and patient. And for those logistics folks doing the organizing for a larger event you know that having that kind of contact is priceless in a company. Thanks Sharon and Just Soul Catering, I will definitely be calling you again!! read more

Incredible food. Home cooked, feel good food for all your guests. Highly recommend (and Sharon is great!)

Just Soul catered a 60-person event for us and it was a hit! Hardly any food leftover and lots of guests inquiring where we ordered from. Besides the fact the food is mouthwateringly delicious, Sharon and her staff are wonderful to work with and attentive to your needs. I appreciate that Sharon took time to talk on the phone with me and answer my questions, made sure the order suited my event, and then followed up the next day to see how everything went. I'm a fan of Just Soul and plan on using them a lot more for work and personal catering needs! read more

We had a meeting for 12 people in Brooklyn and knew we wanted Just Soul to cater it for us. Sharon the founder is a force of nature, so joyful and passionate. She is formerly incarcerated and employs other formerly incarcerated women, such a benefit to the community. Just as importantly, her food is amazing. We had mac and cheese, vegan jambalaya, baked teriyaki chicken wings, and green salad and guacamole. I can't wait to try her collard greens (vegan and non-vegan available) and banana pudding. Someone in our meeting who has had her catering before especially brought a tupperware container to take home leftovers - it's that abundant and that good. read more
