These jarred Alfredo sauces deliver rich, creamy flavor shoppers say rivals restaurant versions.
Alfredo sauce is a beautifully rich, creamy, cheesy sauce that’s more than just a pasta sauce—it makes a nice alternative to marinara for a savory white pizza, and can be used in casseroles, dips, vegetable dishes, and more. Store-bought options are becoming increasingly impressive, as brands compete with each other to create sauces that taste like they’re made from scratch (or pretty close). Here are five jarred Alfredo options shoppers say taste homemade or restaurant-quality.
Rao’s Homemade Alfredo Sauce
Rao’s
Rao’s Homemade Alfredo Sauce is a super creamy, velvety pasta sauce combining cream, Parmesan and Romano cheeses and butter. “Rao’s is literally the best-jarred pasta sauce at grocery stores. It is so easy to just make when you’re in a hurry and tastes like you got it from a restaurant,” one Target shopper said.
Dave’s Gourmet Aged White Cheddar Alfredo Pasta Sauce
World Market
Dave’s Gourmet Aged White Cheddar Alfredo Pasta Sauce is another excellent choice made with a blend of light cream, aged white cheddar and real butter. “Dumped it on pasta and it was delightful! So creamy and delicious cheesy flavor,” one World Market shopper said.
Michael’s of Brooklyn
Amazon
Michael’s of Brooklyn Alfredo Sauce is a rich, beautiful sauce made with cream, butter, egg, Parmesan, and Romano. “I purchased this for the first time just last week. My wife & I agree it is the best tasting alfredo sauce we have ever had from a jar. In fact it’s so good I doubt if we will ever make homemade alfredo sauce again. Yea it’s that good!” one Amazon shopper raved.
Yo Mama’s Alfredo Sauce
Sam’s Club
Yo Mama’s Alfredo Sauce is made with real butter, cream, and Parmesan cheese. “Wow! This is the tastiest Alfredo sauce I’ve ever had out of a jar or in a restaurant,” one Sam’s Club shopper said. “It’s tangy, which wasn’t what I expected and makes traditional Alfredo seem blah in comparison. Pairs well with seafood and ham.”
Bertolli Classic Alfredo Sauce
Walmart
Bertolli Classic Alfredo Sauce is made with fresh cream, real butter, and aged Parmesan cheese. “This Bertolli Alfredo sauce tastes almost homemade! The jars are small 🙁and serve two people per jar. The price is also a little high, but: The sauce is versatile, as I have also used it for macaroni and cheese when I’ve been in a hurry. It’s also great for pouring over steamed broccoli or cauliflower!” one Walmart shopper said.
