A new reality series shot in St. Louis’s The Hill neighborhood is making its debut this weekend at Hi-Pointe Theatre. The Italian food-based reality show, “Spaghetti Wars,” focuses on two family teams pitted against each other in a cooking challenge. The show’s creators told FOX 2 the show’s premise is “Family Feud” meets “The Sopranos” meets “Shark Tank.”

“Spaghetti Wars” shot its pilot episode in November 2024 at Viviano’s on The Hill and will be featured on Jul. 26 at Hi-Pointe Theatre for an advanced screening at the St. Louis Filmmakers Showcase. St. Louis chef Pepe Kehm, one of the creators of the show, told FOX 2 that the series will focus on various food challenges as competitors cook their way up in the ranks and potentially win $100,000.
