‘Nonnas’ is based on a true story, that of Jody “Joe” Scaravella, who grew up in Brooklyn and opened a restaurant ‘Enoteca Maria’ in Staten Island with legitimate Italian grandmothers as chefs. These grandmothers brought their family recipes to the kitchen and served them to customers re-creating a unique and authentic experience.

The man at the center of Nonnas, Nick (Vince Vaughn) who recently lost his beloved mother, decides to put all the money he has, and some borrowed as well, into a business venture that tries to replicate the experience of a rewarding family meal.
