No, this appears to have been made onsite, served in shallow plastic cups with lids. The dried pepper, oil and other ingredients are not pureed into a sauce per se. At a glance it looks like they took the standard red pepper flakes you’d see in a pizza joint or cheap Italian place, dumped them into the cup and poured oil over them. Doesn’t taste like that though.
