Kat (Gish) and Daisy (Roberts) are sisters who work at a pizza parlor in Mystic, Connecticut with their friend Jojo (Taylor). The story revolves around the love lives of the three women. Kat, the brainy one of the group, is off to Yale in the fall and over the summer finds herself drawn to a local architect named Tim (Moses), a married man whose young daughter she is babysitting for. Daisy, the wild free spirited one meets a wealthy law school drop out who comes to town named Charles (Storke) and falls head over heels for him despite the fact that his family has a difficult time accepting her because she's poor and portugeuse. Jojo loves her fiance Bill (D'Onofrio) but leaves him at the altar because she's afraid of commitment. Meanwhile a food critic is on his way to town to sample the legendary mystic pizza. Many customers of the pizzeria say that the pizza seems to contain an ingredient that makes it almost... well, mystic.
