Sometimes the very best things in life are hidden from view. For instance, some restaurants have unassuming exteriors, but the food is incredible. This little restaurant in East Greenwich is hiding a secret – the best pizza you’ve ever tasted.
Frank & John From Italy Restaurant is located at 186 Main Street in East Greenwich. The outside is pretty unassuming - but wait til you see what’s waiting for you inside.

Walk inside, and you’ll find that the dining room is clean and comfortable, with plenty of tables. It’s not fancy…but you certainly won’t care once your food arrives.
