Sauz earns strong reviews for delivering fresh-tasting, uniquely flavored jarred sauces that many consider among the best they’ve tried, with standouts like Hot Honey Marinara, Summer Lemon Marinara, Wild Rosemary, Cracked Pepper Parmesan, and Creamy Calabrian Vodka requiring little to no doctoring. Reviews also flag notable drawbacks: certain flavors can skew too sweet, too spicy, or overly lemony/pithy, and several cite high calories and salt along with a consistently high price that limits repeat buys.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
This stuff is so tasty!! My only critique is it’s not organic. If it was, it would be in regular rotation. That said, I love the consistency and even used the spicy sauce for pizza. The lemon one is bright and full bodied. Better than most on the shelf.

Tried the Summer Lemon Marinara this week and it did not disappoint. It was a huge hit for everyone! Delicious, fresh tasting and summery. The hint of lemon was delicious.

My husband ordered the thingdrop and we tried our first Sauz last night, Summer Lemon Marinara. We're typically big Rao folks in this house, so I was honestly pretty skeptical to try this out, but once I took my first bite I was ready to say, 'Rao who?!' The bright, citrusy addition of the lemon was an incredible balance to the tomato base of the sauce. And as someone who is typically pretty sensitive to acidity, this didn't upset my stomach one bit. 10/10 from me, can't wait to try the Hot Honey Arrabbiata next.

Everyone loved this at my house. It was not the regular canned sauce you buy at the grocery store. It was not filled with sugar and salt and tasted like someone actually made it themselves. It was great. I will buy more for sure. I was trying to upload a couple of videos, but the website wouldn't let me. Maybe next time?

I ordered this through thingtesting and was so impressed! The packaging was perfect to ensure the bottles came safely and unbroken. The lemon is my favorite pasta sauce now!

Love these flavors! They are a bit pricier than other brands, however they have such unique and good flavors, I'm willing to pay extra some of the time. I love the hot honey marinara, it works great with pizza/breadsticks/garlic knots.!

It's delicious. It doesn't bad at all. It's tasty but it's super hard to find in the store. I had a hard time to find it
I've only tried the hot honey marinara and liked the flavor, but I would not purchase this at full price.

Tasty and worth getting again! I love the rosemary flavor that isn't overwhelming. And, it's great to have something so easy to prepare for busy weeknight meals.

Really such a great, well-balanced pasta sauce. I loved the uniqueness of the hot honey flavor... it was perfectly spiced with subtle sweetness and went great with tortellini. While I'm intrigued to try the other flavors, especially the vodka sauce, I think the price point is too high to be buying on a regular basis.

While this is on the expensive side, the bottle is huge and the quality is great. I would only get this if I need to make a fancy meal or a very specific recipe. But it was yummy.

I had a tough time deciding which Sauz flavor to try since they all sounded fantastic. Nonetheless, I managed to buy two, and let me tell you, they were both absolutely divine! The Hot Honey Marinara sauce had the perfect balance of spiciness and sweetness, while the creamy Calabrian Vodka sauce was rich and scrumptious. What's more, both sauces tasted incredibly fresh, and I'm already excited to try out the rest of their flavors!

I really enjoyed this! So flavorful and so delicious. Would consider buying this again.

I tried both the Hot Honey Arrabbiata and the Sumer Lemon Marinara, and both were amazing! I was personally partial to the Summer Lemon Marinara but both elevated what could have been a very average pasta dinner to something insanely tasty. The price is steep, but the quality of flavor and simple ingredient list will definitely make me repurchase for a treat.

I haven't tried the Sumer Lemon Marinara yet, but the Hot Honey Arrabbiata was absolutely delicious. It was full of flavor and made for the perfect pizza sauce. The overall branding is trendy and fun, but it is definitely pricey. It's a fun splurge for every now and then.

Loved this sauce! A little expensive to buy without a discount though.

I've only had time to try the Hot Honey Arrabbiata, but it's a solid sauce. It is sweet and has a nostalgic quality, but the eat balances it out. Would love to try it with a lasagna. The price makes it's hard to justify making it a regular pantry staple, but I appreciate what Sauz is trying to achieve. Unfortunately, I think if I was going to buy a luxe jar sauce I'd pick up Truff as the price is lower and I prefer the flavor profile to the Arrabbiata. I'll update when I get to the marinara.

I usually make my own sauce, but couldn't wait to try Sauz!! They are super delish — the Hot Honey is on the sweeter side and the Summer Lemon is VERY lemon-y. I wouldn't go out of my way to order these online again, but if I saw them in a store I would probably repurchase them.

All around lovely experience and flavors.

Got this during a thingdrop and honestly I love it. I've only tried the summer lemon one but it was delicious and the perfect amount of lemon-y. I was skeptical at first because I thought, how good can marinara sauce get. It's just tomatoes. But the summer lemon one blew me away. Can't wait to try the hot honey!
