The sauce contains no preservatives, so proper refrigeration is essential. Store unopened jar in a cool, dry place.

I was totally impressed from beginning to end. Ordering, received in excellent condition. The Italian sauce was excellent! And I’m Italian!!
Jar was broken
Yummy sauce. Definitely worth the price
This has to be the best Arriabata sauce I've had. It's great for pasta and for chili
This stuff is worth the money!!! Homemade taste and goes great with ravioli.
Awesome product! Will definitely buy again! Came quickly and was packaged nicely.
This sauce is the best I’ve ever had! Having been to Italy several times I know what fresh ingredients taste like. Tonight I warmed with fresh mozzarella ❤️💚 No doubt I have found my favorite now and will continue to order. I’m having some friends over in a couple of weeks and I do plan to serve with pasta. You will not regret ordering this sauce!!
Great fresh taste with some zip to it. Would stand up as served in any restaurant.They're now friends of ours.
Its the best sauce in a jar I have ever tasted!
Superb Flavor : Best on the ShelfRich, authentic , and fresh. You will not be disappointed.
Not a particular fan of store bought sauces until I tried this product, heat and serve with great flavor and good flavor is a plus for me. Intend adding a few jars to my pantry.
My first order arrived on time, but when I opened my mailbox, the jar had busted in the packaging and it smelled awesome! They do package it well too, many layers on the air-popping plastic.I told them what happened, and they immediately replied and said another was on it's way...and it arrived very soon.This is the best sauce ever! It's unbelievable.
This is the best spicy jar of sauce I’ve found so far. It’s worth $10 a jar. I usually add a few shakes of ground red pepper and this sauce didn’t need any.
Simple ingredients. Tastes amazing. DO NOT eat a spoonful before the pasta is done. You WILL end up eating the whole jar.
Boy oh boy was this good!! I understand why they bottled this stuff. I did put a little sugar in it but it was not too bad almost as good as mine. Jars are very large which is great. I got a small lasagna and Italian meatball subs out of 2 jars. So glad I found this when I don’t feel like making sauce myself
Yes have had a hard time finding a sauce that everyone in my home loves. This one has been a hit! Great flavor, not too salty, not too acidic. My family loves it.
I love this Arrabriata sauce but can only afford to get it when it’s on sale which rarely is when I am out
Do you hate the overly sweet, name brand pasta sauces? Me too. Do you like Rao's arrabbiata sauce, but feel like you need to branch out? Me too. This sauce tastes like it started in a small Brooklyn apartment and was given as gifts to Mike's family and friends for years until they finally convinced him to quit that crappy job he hated and make arrabbiata sauce full time. Mike left that job and horrible commute and never looked back, and now we can all enjoy his sauce. Ok, so I don't know if that's how the story goes, but this sauce tastes like that... that friend who always gets that one dish, sauce, or dessert perfect, and when you walk into that tiny, stuffy, steamy kitchen, you know it's going to be good. It is. Just get it and throw in some sausage, meatballs, parmesan, whatever you're into, or have it plain. Enjoy! That's what Mike wants.
All of Michael's sauces are great! The Arrabbiata is my favorite. I usually add some crushed red pepper when I make my scratch sauce, for the pleasant heat on the "backend", and this has exactly that. The spicy heat does not overpower the complex flavors, nor does it build up--meaning, your mouth doesn't get hotter and hotter as you eat, the way spicy Mexican or Jamaican jerk does.If I were to rank it, I would say it's half as hot as Tabasco.I use this when I make ziti, it complements the cheeses so well, it's truly wonderful. I use the Home Style gravy if I'm braising a chuck roast, and the Tomato Basil for chicken parm.You cannot go wrong with this brand.
Easily the best store-bought pasta sauce brand ever. Let's just say that "my current arrangements" aren't suitable for cooking up a storm like I once did, so it's great to have a quality product to rely on that doesn't require doctoring up to be edible. Fit's my low carb diet nicely which is a huge plus, great taste, appropriate heat, and my meatballs loved it.
I have just about every pasta sauce known to man. This is ideal pasta sauce. My family noticed the difference when I tried a different sauce.
So I’ve had this sauce for quite some time in my pantry. Finally, it was cooked this weekend and it was delicious. Of course I had to add my own seasonings to it. But it was a great jar of sauce. I got it from Whole Foods in my area. However, I can not find it everywhere
THE MOST FLAVORFUL JARRED SAUCE!!!!
The sauce is really flavorful with a hint of spiciness from the peppers. There is zero sugar added which is great because most tomato sauces have sugars and added sugars. This is great for someone who can’t consume too much sugar for health reasons. One of the best tasty sauces.
Very very good and I know it is expensive to make but 35.00 a bottle is special occasion money
Excellent arrabiata sauce!
Have been buying this product for years now, and hope it's always available to purchase. Don't think homemade can beat it. The marinara and Arrabbiata are my faves. It's a must try!!
the absolute greatest of great jarred sauces. throw the bottle away, put it in a pot, woulda fooled me that it wasn’t homemade
This is the best I have ever had and I'm Italian/French LOL
This stuff is pure gold!!! Wonderful flavor with a hint of heat. Beautiful baby! I will definitely order more! I wish I could get the Putinesca and the Home style without ordering huge amounts with huge shipping fees.
I LIVED IN NEW YORK FOR 8 YEARS AND FOUND THIS SAUCE AT A NEW YORK FOOD FAIR, IT'S MY FAMILY'S FAVORITE! SINCE I MOVED BACK TO CALIFORNIA I'M SO HAPPY THIS IS AVAILABLE TO ORDER ONLINE! SURE IT COST MORE THAN A REGULAR PASTA SAUCE BUT THIS IS OUTSTANDING DELICIOUS SAUCE!!! WORTH THE $9.99
