Charlie’s Pizza

I grew up in the area but moved to Florida and am visiting parents. I have had four pizzas in the past month and all have been spot on. Consistency is important in food and every time it has been very good. I get a large with sausage, peppers, onions and mushrooms. Toppings are huge and plentiful. Highly recommend Charlie’s.

The food is delicious and great, totally go there if your in the mood for pizza. There pick-​ups are fast and quick, however, you do wait a long period of time to be seated if you want to dine-​in, workers instead of doing their jobs, decide to talk for an half an hour. I would give five stars if the service was better. Four stars for the food.

The food is good but the service can be hit or miss. I honestly think that having only one person handle the entire dining room area is a dicey proposition, because when it gets busy things start to feel a little chaotic. The greens are great, when they are warmed all the way (most of the time, but not all of the time) and the pizza and wings are awesome. Sometimes the staff sits with other customers in the dining area and because of the close proximity of the tables, this can make others feel more like an outsider. Sometimes the radio is cranked loud and it just adds to the feeling of chaos. I think the No. Utica location is a little better because of the way the tables are arranged, you don’t feel like you’re sitting on your neighbor’s lap.

Pizza is always tasty and wings are great as well. My wife is a huge fan of their paninis and their calzones are extremely large and good.

roast Beef sub was ok but the bread was very chewy and tuff. Service was good.

I frequent Charlies for lunch during the week, as I’m a big fan of their pizza. Service is fast, and always friendly. They know my order as soon as I walk in the door, and are happy to make my slices just like I want them.
