Living on Long Island, George, our main character, is a Greek-American man-child in his 40s, obsessed with comic books and the NY Yankees. With his acting career failing and having discovered the love of his life, Gina, just got engaged, George feels his life is at a crossroads and seeks advice from his best friend, Maya, a divorced, feisty Israeli. Convinced happiness awaits her in New Orleans, Maya seizes this opportunity to help both herself and George. She pushes him to finally grow up and buy her Diner, so she can leave for her own dream of starting a more care-free life in New Orleans. A flashback to his happy childhood in the 80s, when that same diner was owned by his late dad, convinces George to buy it, since he feels this magical diner is the only place he can truly feel at home. Lacking funds, George turns to his uncle, who agrees to invest under specific conditions. Since George is clueless about running a business, his uncle demands that Maya help George run the diner and that he hire his eccentric cousins as his staff. These conditions force Maya to hold off on her dream. For now, she is stuck helping George prove his competence to his uncle by teaching him responsibility, how to run the business and how to manage his incompetent staff. The chaos comes to a screeching halt when George's ex, Gina walks into the diner... The flashbacks to the 80s make this show into a charming dual experience.
