Growing up in a close Italian family in New York, Joe Scaravella (Vince Vaughn) loved his grandmother’s (Nonnas) and mother’s cooking.
Now that his mother has passed away, Joe, after caring for her for many years, has no one and, other than his boring job, nothing to do.
Rather than being depressed, he decides to honor the memory of his Nonna and mother the best way he knows how.
With food!
Joe buys a restaurant on Staten Island and hires “Nonnas” to do the cooking.
He wants the place to be like family. A home away from home.
Cozy, with great food, and real life Nonnas.
A sure success, right?
Well…..
