Overall Call:
Dinner Rush made me want to go out and eat a big bowl of pasta after word. Not since Big Night has food seemed so cool. Anyone into the restaurant biz and a little bit of organized crime should really enjoy this film. The cast is excellent across the board. There were many personalities that were all well defined and none of the actors were pushing it either. The story didn't break any new ground but the way the ingredients were thrown together is certainly refreshing. Overall it's an excellent little indie. If Dinner Rush is playing near you, go catch it.

Reasons For Recommendation:
+ Solid little story
+ Solid little cast
