  • Vibrant, fresh tomato flavor
  • Creative, distinctive flavor lineup
  • Thick, satisfying sauce texture
  • Clean, simple ingredient lists
  • Overly lemony, pithy notes
  • Occasionally too sweet profile
  • Heat intensity inconsistent
  • Higher calories and sodium

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.

  • Such a good sauce! I loved the taste, the richness in each bit and the flavors. Each one is so unique as well. The one I tried was Hot Honey Marinara. I have never heard of this flavor before but after trying it out with sauz, it might be my new fav! 10/10 would recommend.

  • I loved how simple the ingredient list was! Always number 1 in importance for me. Also couldn’t believe how rich the sauce was!! So delicious!

  • the hot honey was pretty hot - didn't notice any honey or sweet notes. the wild rosemary was earthy. prices are steep for the lackluster experience.

  • Love the unique and different flavors, like a rosemary or hot honey pasta sauce is so rare! And the ingredients are clean. I love the packaging and aesthetic of the design as well. I made meatball subs with the rosemary marinara and the sauce was so flavorful.

  • Sauz crafted pasta sauce is now a kitchen essential for me. Made with top-quality ingredients and cooked in small batches, it brings authentic flavors to any dish. Its rich taste, versatility, and commitment to quality make it a must-have. Highly recommended!

  • This was SO delicious! We made pasta with it and couldn’t get enough of this sauce. Or should I say Sauz?

  • This might be the best jarred sauce I’ve ever had. I was weary about the price but after trying I will be repurchasing. The flavor is so fresh! I had the rosemary marinara and the rosemary was not overpowering.

  • Great sauce! Love the flavor options as they are different than a lot of the other pasta sauce brands on the shelf! I got the hot honey and the lemon to try! The hot honey was delicious - it had a nice bit of heat to it and I think it would go great with any pasta and protein! I thought the consistency of the sauce was nice as it was not too runny.

  • I absolutely love Sauz! The flavors are so bold and delicious; my personal favorite is the summer lemon marinara (at first, I did not know what to expect because I had never had a lemon-flavored marinara sauce, but I was so pleasantly surprised by the super strong & fresh lemon flavor!). I also think Sauz is doing a fantastic job of building a community (Sauz Famiglia) with a strong brand, offering fun and meaningful customer experiences (e.g. I received my products in an adorable package with tomato illustrations :) ).

  • Yummy, spicy and flavorful! Loved this on some plain pasta tonight to spice up a pretty boring dinner. It’s a fresh taste with a nice kick.

  • That's great, good balance of honey and spiciness but not worth the price

  • Great buy! I rarely buy jarred pasta sauce but this might change my mind. I had the vodka sauce and added it to cheese ravioli. It was so good! It was a bite spicy but perfect and the whole meal came together in less than 30 min.

  • The packaging of this sauce looks amazing and so is the flavor! I wish the price was a little more affordable.

  • Delicious and great ingredients. Was able to whip up a pasta dinner quickly using this jar. Love the spicy and sweet combo in the honey hot arrabbiata sauce. It’s pricey though but great ingredients so will keep purchasing if it goes on sale.
