Incredible. I microwaved them and they turned out great. I bet if they’re baked in the oven they would have been even better.

These used to be some of the best meatballs, frozen or otherwise. I used to buy them once a week, but something has changed. They used to be so tender you could easily cut them with a fork. Now they're like little tennis balls. The flavor is also way different now. They taste like sausage and are way over-seasoned. You might get lucky enough to still find the old version. Check the "best by" date. Anything in June 2025 or before is good, after that they're awful. Just tested one last night(BB:10/2026) and had to throw them away after the first bite. A real shame.

Too expensive for what you get. There is six meatballs with some sauce. It claims to be 4.5 servings. The sauce is ok. The meatballs are dense and don’t have little flavor.

Spark - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
Raos is my FAvorite spaghetti sauce so when I saw this, I HAD to get. I will have to agree, unfortunately, with the other reviews. The sauce is the best! Hands down favorite is on point. The meatballs however, the texture and consistency is spongy… Definitely not your usual cut with your fork and/or crumble in your mouth like a normal meatball… very bouncy and chewy… spongy.

The price scared me a bit when I first purchased, but these are actually on par with the best meatballs I’ve had in restaurants. Two is the perfect portion size, and it includes a good amount of sauce in the pan. I keep these in the freezer at all times for an easy meal, and keep it protein heavy with a small serving of pasta and a salad. The cook time is just under an hour, so not the quickest easy dinner if that’s your thing. However I will never buy a different brand of meatballs.

Rao's has the best flavored frozen meals, in my opinion! My MIL gave these to my son, and the rest is history! These are pretty big meat balls too! It's up to you to add seasoning or not. Make it with spaghetti noodles/squash and you're good to go!

First time trying a Raos frozen entree. I was pleased w/quantity and quality of the meatballs and sauce. I used the conventional oven but it does require an hour. My recommendation would be to add garlic and herbs to meat for more flavor.
