Former best friends Sal and Vince run rival pizzerias in Little Italy, spending their days plotting against each other's restaurant. But when love blossoms between Sal's daughter Nikki (Emma Roberts) and Vince's son Leo (Hayden Christensen), they must hide their romance from their oblivious fathers' eyes. When news of Nikki and Leo's relationship slips out into the open, Sal and Vince reach boiling point. These cobblestoned piazzas ain't big enough for two legendary pizzerias, so a wager is declared: the two restaurants will compete in a high stakes pizza cookout, where the loser must leave Little Italy for good. As tempers rage hotter than a wood-fired pizza oven, will Nikki and Leo's love become the victim or victor in this ridiculously epic food fight?
