December 23\, 1983: Just days before Christmas\, the Oliverio family readies their Feast of the Seven Fishes\, an Italian tradition stretching back to the old country of Calabria. Amidst the preparations\, Tony Oliverio\, a young man with big dreams and a bigger heart\, wonders if he'll find love this Christmas season or spend it alone with his loud and loving family - Great Grandma Nonnie\, Grandpa Johnny\, Great Uncles Frankie and Carmine\, his parents\, his brother\, and a host of friends. When Sarah\, the girlfriend of his best friend Angelo\, introduces Tony to Beth\, it looks like Tony's holiday experience might take a turn for the better. That is unless Nonnie thinks Beth isn't good enough for her great-grandson\, and Beth's Ivy League suitor doesn't steal her heart first. Come on inside\, where it's warm\, and the smells of cooking fish permeate the air\, and let's have a visit.
