The other day I watched the movie "Dinner Rush", with Danny Aiello and Sandra Bernhard, among others, about an Italian restaurant that's also a front for a bookmaking operation.
I enjoyed the cooking scenes and the portrayal of the back-of-the-house dynamics, as well as the tension between trendy cuisine and traditional food. But ultimately what made it a good movie, rather than just food porn, was the fact that the characters were all so solid and believable. I recommend it.
