Take your pick from a wide variety of Rao’s Homemade’s signature sauces, in styles ranging from classic Marinara and Alfredo to Vodka Arrabbiata and onion- and garlic-free Sensitive Marinara Sauce.
Rao’s began as a humble saloon in northern Manhattan in 1896, and since then it’s transformed under family stewardship into a legendary Italian restaurant renowned for its Southern‑Italian cooking and storied traditions like generational “table rights” that have turned a meal there into one of the most coveted dining experiences in America. In 1992, owner Frank Pellegrino, Sr., frustrated with having to turn away eager diners, packaged Rao’s signature tomato sauce for home enjoyment. Made with no sugar, fillers, or artificial ingredients, Rao’s Homemade sauces quickly established a reputation for authenticity and quality, expanding into soups, pasta, and more. Today, Rao’s Homemade® remains committed to its slow-crafted, small-batch heritage.

The restaurant’s transcendent atmosphere and simple, authentic food earned it intense acclaim — not to mention incredibly hard-to-get reservations.
