"PICKLE PIZZA"......YUUCCKKKyyy or YUMMMMMYyyyyyy..... -Semi-briney pickle chips balance the salty prosciutto. the garlicky ranchy sauce was delish. Caramelize onion just brought the "PIE" together. It works and definitely worth making a Pizza Jurney for. -Small town feel located in the basement of a Tribal gaming establishment. Atmosphere was cool and chill. Great sports decor on the walls. -Staff was cool. Waitress was a friendly local. She gave us recommendation on nearby attraction with a smile. -Oh yeah, don't forget the beer. Nice selections - can't go wrong with a local red ale. -COMMENTS: I discovered I like "Pickle Pizza".....very enjoyable and will definitely be back.... read more

They close at 10pm! We love the food here. We pretty much stopped going to the Cafe when the pizza place is open. I haven't gotten a pizza I don't like. The breadsticks are great. The appetizers are awesome. We like the tots with the beer cheese. The service can be slow at times but it's been great the last couple times we have gone there. They always have multiple sports games on the various TVs. Casual, fun atmosphere that's next to the bowling alley. Go check them out. You won't be disappointed.

The sports memorabilia all over the walls is awesome. The service was pretty good. We got there a little before opening and they allowed us to sit and take our order and said they don't start cooking until 12. No problem. The pizza was decent and loaded with toppings. I will ask for extra sauce next time. The issue was the Italian sandwich. The hard wax peppers with the stems inside the sandwich ruined the taste. When I bit down on a hard stem it did not feel good. Other than that it was a nice experience and will dine there again. read more

Back down to 4 stars. Pizza and service still rank as 5 stars, but the sandwiches and especially side salads were lacking. A salad made with shredded lettuce (which should only be used for sandwich toppings) is a poor decision. Also using crumbled bacon (same as used on their pizzas) for a BLT is again a bad choice by a cook. Whole bacon slices and regular lettuce please! read more

Pizza was good but not too much of a variety on the menu . Basically pizza and a couple sandwiches. Service was ok and we liked all the sport's memorabilia decor . Only downside is there's a bar literally right next to this place but you can't order anything other than wine and beer from the bar to the restaurant read more

Love the convenience of having a pizza parlor while staying at Black Oak. I ordered a Hawaiian-type pizza with pineapple. Was surprised how bland it was; my friend said not to order from here again. During our next visit to the hotel, we drove 15 minutes to Mike's Pizza and got something satisfying. read more

This is a cool place on the bottom floor of the Black Oak Casino. Chill atmosphere. Next to the bowling alley. We had three pizzas. Two personal pizzas that were larger than I thought. I could have easily shared one. My wife and daughter got a small Buffalo Chicken that was not small! They said that they could have split a personal. My Columbian pizza was loaded! Loved it. Great service by Jocelyne. Very nice lady. read more

2nd visit here and not disappointed! The beer cheese w/bread sticks is great! Cheese bread is so cheesy its nuts. Caliente calzone is a great combo of sweet and heat. Only made it through half of a large but its coming home with me to demolish later. Definitely recommend it if you like spicy food. Wife said the pulled pork pizza is fantastic, and she'd definitely order it again. Our waitress Andriana was great, helped us box everything up for our ride home and kept our drinks topped up. Great staff and would definitely recommend The Charlie to anyone swinging by Black Oak Casino and or its bowling alley. read more

2nd time here. We decided to use our food credit. Love the sports vibe of the restaurant and everyone is so friendly. Hubby got the caliente calzone and I got the pulled pork pizza. We started with beer cheese fondue and cheesy breadsticks. Our server was so helpful with suggestions on what to get. Great knowledge of the menu. Adrianna thank you so much for the wonderful service. Your smile is infectious and just adds to the experience. Just another great day out with the hubby! read more

We love the St. Charles Saloon, and the Charlie is a great location closer to home. The benefit is my favorite pizza is a staple on the Charlie's Menu and it only runs as a special at the original. The Cubano is my absolute favorite pizza, and I never thought It would be but its soo flavorful and delicious. Its a large plus that they serve Crow & Wolf on tap at both locations but very happy that they have Lady Marmalade available on tap. Our Waitress was super friendly and attentive, offered great suggestions for drinks. The restaurant is located on the family floor of Black Oak Casino in the old Mill spot. Its decorated in sports memorabilia and has a large seating plan. You can also order from your bowling lane if you are here for bowling. read more

My daughter's name is Charlie so she was excited to see the name of this place. It is located inside the bowling alley at Black Oak Casino. I've been coming to this bowling alley for a few years and the name and food has changed a couple of times. The Charlie's menu is much smaller than the previous place which isn't necessarily a bad thing. They focus on pizzas and hot sandwiches mostly, but they also offer a few different appetizers and salads as well. I was a bit bummed when we arrived because I was hoping for the typical chicken tenders and nachos that they usually have (weird I know), but we ended up ordering the Loaded Breadsticks which came with bacon and wax peppers! It was pretty good and held us over until we left. They seemed a bit understaffed and were slow because of it, but it happens! If you are bowling, they will bring your order to your lane. They also have a restaurant area where you can sit away from the bowling alley and a large bar you can sit at as well. I think we'll order a pizza or a hot sandwich next time! Check them out! read more

I had a late lunch here at The Charlie inside the Black Oak Casino, downstairs where the Arcade is. We sat at the bar there wasn't to much of a crowd at the bar it took awhile for anyone to acknowledge that we were sitting there the bar tender walked passed us a couple times and didn't even say "be right with you" so I had to ask "can we order a drink" she made it over to get our order.. that is the only issue after that we ordered food I ordered a the chuck Calzone, I love the chuck pizza at the Saint Charles in Columbia, and I was at the opening for The Charlie here at Black Oak and it wasn't very good, well this Calzone was delicious the flavor hit my taste buds first bite the garlic the sauce, these Calzones are good size, the small looks like a large.. I brought half home these calzones are even better the next day heated in the oven. read more

We had a Birthday dinner here last night. The pizza was fantastic and the service was excellent.

The pizza was amazing, fresh and real toppings like it should be. Dough and crust was light and crispy. Service was excellent, I forgot our servers name but she was awesome, very nice and attentive. The ambiance was great, as it's not part of the casino there's no smoke smell and you can relax comfortably with your kids and enjoy things they like too. read more

Solid. Not as good as the one is Columbia but still pretty good. I get that Chuck pizza.

My husband and I have a soft spot for Black Oak Casino. It's a special place - full of kind, good people. My husband likes to support them a little more directly than I do - but nonetheless - we both appreciate that it exists. The Charlie is just another fun addition to the ever growing and evolving Black Oak Casino. After my husband finished an early evening music gig last week, him and the rest of the band were eager to get some food. The Charlie became the destination of choice - due to it being conveniently located inside Black Oak Casino, that it was open till 10 PM...and it just felt right to support a new business. The Charlie is owned and run by the same people of St. Charles saloon in Columbia. They serve fresh pizza, calzones, and sandwiches, in addition to seasonal specials... and of course local charm. My husband has become a particularly big fan of their Islander pizza, their take on the Hawaiian pizza , with extra veggies. In between big bites of his recent takeout order from here (which ended up lasting 4 meals!) - he remarked that he appreciated the solid crust on the pizza- and how generous they were with the toppings. He also enjoyed the cesar salad which he ordered In addition to their Islander Pizza, The Charlie serves up a variety of fun pizzas, including a Cubano pizza, a pulled pork BBQ pizza, and even a dill pickle pizza (this is one of their more popular ones). They take great pride in their pizza varieties, and I appreciate that they make their own sauces and dough fresh everyday. In addition to their diverse pizza menu - The Charlie also serves 18 beers on tap, including some unique microbrews. So... If you're looking to support a new local business in the area - check out The Charlie. It's a quality place to eat in - and/or get takeout. Though please note that they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Trust. read more

This place was absolutely delicious!! When I say I have never had a pizza place that blew my mind away... I am not kidding when I say this is hands-down a reason to go back to visit! I think it was a manager lady who had helped us and she was extremely friendly very bubbly And super accommodating. I highly recommend this place. It is so delicious and it has a super fun atmosphere. read more

This pizza was really good and cooked perfectly! I had 6 teenagers with me and they were ALL happy and this never happens! The pizza was thick too! The cheesy breadsticks were exactly this! CHEEEEESY, hot and delicious with of course your favorite dipping sauce. I ordered a pork sandwich with pepperchinis and it came with a house salad that was so fresh and crisp! It was a great choice, among their several sandwiches to choose from. It was the weekend and they were super busy; but I ordered ahead of the bowling alley reservation and it was PERFECT timing! The kiddos could bowl and eat their fresh, hot and ready pizza and cheesy breadsticks. They have a full draft and beer bar to choose from adult beverages, no hard alcohol. There is plenty of free, safe, ADA, well lit parking as well as ADA inside seating. The entire family can enjoy a good pizza and salad while they bowl in the bowling alley. read more

Friendly and funny staff. It was a little crowded but that's what one would expect being in the bowling alley. Pizza was the bomb, wish I would have got an extra for the ride home. I have nothing bad to say about Charlie's even being so busy they keep the place clean. read more

Really delicious food! The artichoke jalapeño breadsticks were so good! It's a large service size almost like a small pizza.. the salad was great, and the Burger pizza was good, but I would not order it again (just because it had lettuce and it probably doesn't reheat well lol). Our waitress, Stephanie was very nice. It's a perfect spot within Black Oaks, since there is no smoke and you can hear the kids having fun bowling. Can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu. read more

One of the best pizzas that I've ever had. Quality of ingredients are top notch, and the prices are very reasonable.

We were at the black oak lanes for my nephews birthday. Went to the bar to order pizza and was third person waiting. After the two ahead of me, a lady unknowingly cut in front of me, then the bar tender look at me a pointed to another guy saying he was ahead of me which he was there 5 mins after I started standing there. Finally ordered my pizza and fondu with bread and asked for ranch. Bartender said ranch would come out with pizza . Bread and fondu came out with no issue but a little attitude. After some time my pizza came out but my brothers (ordered same time) didn't come out. The guy with my pizza kinda slammed the pizza down and tried to rush off before I stopped him and asked where the ranch was... he said " you'll have to walk over and get it"! We waited for the other pizza while we bowled and as our bowling time got closer to ending, we asked a waitress if we could possibly just get a table in the restaurant since we wouldn't have a spot to enjoy our pizza if it didn't get there soon... she responded that the restaurant tables were for paying customers only! We were floored with that response since we had already paid for pizza from the restaurant. Finally got our pizza and rushed to eat it while burning the last 15 minutes of our bowling time eating in a hurry. I love Saint Charles and the Charlie, but that was disappointing and the pizza was not the quality I expected out of them as the pizza is usually amazing. I know people have bad days, but it don't work out great when the entire staff is having a bad day and takes it out on PAYING CUSTOMERS!!! After this experience I'm here to be their first 1 star review. So disappointing and hope they fix this for future visit and hopefully add a couple stars to my review! read more

Stopped in for some pizza to see if it's as good as it's sister location in Columbia. The restaurant hasn't changed much in terms of decor but it was clean and not too busy when we got there (around 2:00pm on a Sunday). We were promptly seated and had our drink order taken and our drinks brought out. Our server was very nice and made sure to check on us often - entering a few well timed jokes in as well. I think his name badge said Joseph (but I could be mistaken). We got the chuck, the pickle pizza, and the special breadsticks. Hubby had never tried their pizza and immediately fell in love with the pickle pizza. All the things we ordered were delicious, and the best part was the toppings were fresh and plentiful. This location is much closer so we will definitely frequent this one! read more

Hands down the best pizza I have ever had! Crunchy yet soft crust, cooked to perfection, fresh toppings (and they don't skimp on them) and hot EVERYTIME! Customers service is wonderful as well. read more

service left much to be desired . - never a hello or welcome vibe. Halfway through our meal before getting our ranch dressing, for salad and pizza, had to go order our own drinks from the bar. I would normally give room for a busy night but at the time there was only two other tables in the restaurant. Still no excuse for unfriendly service- all new employees should be trained by Columbia Charlie staff. read more

I was really impressed. Located in a bowling alley one would expect mediocre food. However, the pizza was fantastic and the wait staff were very friendly. Highly recommended. read more
