A VFW post in Cranston is home to some of the best old-school Italian comfort food around, and locals can’t stop talking about it. Mike’s Kitchen, tucked inside Tabor-Franchi VFW Post 2396, serves up hearty classics like gnocchi sorrentino, chicken picatta, and a legendary polenta in red sauce—all in a no-frills, cash-only setting that feels straight out of another era. With a menu that nods to both Italian and Portuguese roots, it’s the kind of spot where regulars mingle and newcomers are always welcome. Who else loves these hidden neighborhood treasures? #Food #CranstonEats #HiddenGems
