 WonderfulSep 14, 2007
By J. Thompson
I was reluctant to try this out, because I've had so many terrible jarred pasta sauces and no one had reviewed this product yet, but my fears were quickly put to rest. This is the BEST jarred pasta sauce I've ever had. Actually, it's probably the best pasta sauce I've ever had prepared by someone else, period. Only a super-fresh homemade sauce, made with wonderful ingredients (San Marzano tomatoes, roasted onions and garlic, etc.) can compete. Considering that such a sauce really takes hours to make, all told, I'm thrilled to use this instead. This flavor in particular is an excellent base to use for other sauces - it won't overpower the other ingredients you add, but it has such a fantastic flavor it can easily be used on its own. One of my favorite things to do is use a half-a-jar of this sauce over organic prepared ravioli - it's a super-quick, somewhat healthy meal that tastes amazing. The heat from the freshly boiled ravioli is sufficient to warm up the sauce, so there's no need to even cook the sauce separately - you just pour it on and you're done!
The jars are very nice, thick, reusable polypropylene (#5). I use them to bring my lunch to work everyday - it's pretty surprising how nice they are - they are definitely not disposable junk. There are some reports of an occasional jar arriving broken if this item is shipped via ground, which is honestly hard for me to imagine. I use Amazon Prime, so mine arrive via two-day, and the packaging is always flawless. To address this problem, Amazon had a "Pasta Lovers Gift Set" from this company with extra packaging, but it doesn't appear to show up in searches anymore. It contained four flavors - Marinara, Arrabbiata, Tuscan Vodka, and Barely Bolognese, if I remember correctly. All delicious - the Arrabbiata is fairly spicy, though.
Anyway, buy this sauce! The more people buy it, the more wonderful flavors Amazon will presumably carry. One final note - this is a GREAT DEAL for these sauces. If you don't believe me, take a look elsewhere on the web for this company's sauces - five bucks a jar is an absolute steal for an all-natural product of this top-notch quality.

I've Been Looking...and I Found It!Apr 11, 2008
By DeClawed
Cooking spaghetti sauces have been my nemesis since I got together with my (now) husband, who is a vegetarian. I loved learning about this whole new world of cooking without meat, but tomato-based pasta sauces beyond marinara have been a challenge. It is quite easy to become dependent on meat to provide flavor in Italian sauces and I haven't been able to really crack the secret to doing a hearty sauce without it. I've tried recipe after recipe and just can't seem to get something that really has a robust flavor. Well, the Scarpetta people don't have my problem. Tomato and arugula? I thought I might be crazy when I ordered it, but the reviews were so good and there was a promotion, so I thought, what the heck. I'm glad I did. Until I can figure out how to do something like this myself, this is the next best thing.
No corn syrup, no preservative mumbo jumbo, but a better sauce and more strong, bold, bright and sweet tomato flavor than anything you're going to find in the jarred section of the grocery store. I'm a big believer that the best Italian food is often the simplest approach, done well. This sauce is a perfect argument for that philosophy. Sincerely recommended. If I had a gripe, it would be that we ate the whole jar in a night. Could I get one of those gigantic plastic salsa bottles full of this, please?

Delicious!Oct 27, 2008
By Suzanne Strickland
This sauce is one of the freshest tasting I've ever had. It's all natural no ugly unpronounceable words in it's ingredients, just fresh chunky tomatoes.....just right! You'll love it!

 Taste awful!Feb 26, 2009
By Pamela
"Poohbear"
After reading all of the positive reviews for this product, I decided to try it. It looked delicious, nice packaging, but the taste and smell were really bad. It had a bad tomato smell and taste, it just tasted old, not fresh as I expected. The dates on the packaging were fine, not out of date, but the taste was a different story. Now I am stuck with 3 more jars and afraid to eat it again. I also ordered the Bruschetta as well. Haven't tried it yet, I'm a little hesitant to try since I don't want to be disappointed again and know that I wasted even more money. Lesson learned, I won't buy anything from Amazon again without knowing more about the product or having tasted it before. I will stick with my favorite sauces from Patsy's (NY restaurant with same name). They are sold in select grocery stores. They are jarred sauce but taste amazing and fresh.

Delicious. Fresh tasting. . . and, it does taste like home-made. Really a good sauce. Quick and easy to heat up too!Apr 21, 2008
By Sarah-Therese

I was skeptical until I tasted this delicious product. It does taste fresh, wholesome, and home-made. Great over angel-hair pasta! Easy to heat up and use numerous ways. I got a really good deal from Amazon on a promotional special. No delivery problems, broken seals or jars.
