At CHAR Pizzeria Napoletano, we stay as true as possible to the original pizza from Naples. Our staff is certified by the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana (VPN), which governs restaurants that specialize in Neapolitan-style traditional pizza. To qualify, the dough must be hand-mixed or mixed at low speed, then hand rolled and tossed to make 11-inch pies. The yeast is also specified, as are the types of vegetables and cheese – all imported from specific regions in Italy to remain authentic Neapolitan pizza. Our pizzas are cooked in a custom wood-fired oven that burns only oak and pecan branches to a temperature of about 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Neapolitan pizzas are cooked on the stone hearth adjacent the fire and arrive with the edges slightly charred with wood ash. Neapolitan pizzas are not supposed to be cut into slices, but rather eaten by hand or with knife and fork. The centers are slightly moist, or soupy, and ingredients do not cover every inch of the pie.

We narrowed our decision down to try either Char or Brothers pizza. I decided to go with Char because the ingredients on the menu just sounded better. It sounded fancy. So when we arrived it was a very different type of pizza joint than expected. The set up kinda reminds me of a Pieology ordering style place. The pizza was very thin and "light" with lots of flavor. We ordered the pesto party and a hot Hawaiian BBQ. Let's just says I ate a whole pizza by myself. That's why I said a "light" pizza. Pesto was a little oily but I kinda expected it's pesto... duh. The Hawaiian was a little sweeter than expected, next time we will ask for regular sauce on that one but if u like it sweet then that's the pizza for you. Crust was good on both pizzas. It leaves black marks on your hands with ever piece. Friendly staff. Clean place. Prices were worth it since I had no complaints on taste or service. If I had a Char near me, I would go back.

This is hands down one of the best spots in Peoria. Everything I have ever tried is fantastic. It does get busy and the wait can be long, but I think that is a testament to how delicious it is. The Farmers Market pizza is unique and delicious; the Hawaiian is amazing too. People complain about the price but honestly for the quality I do not find it to be bad at all! We need more places like this up here and I am grateful to have Char so close by!
