bit too expensive for a casual lunch, but worth it if you're keen to splurge for high quality food and great service

nice location, cool atmosphere, very italian lygon

Always have a fantastic time at this great restaurant. A bit on the pricey side, but totally worth it if you're after authentic pizza and great quality antipasto.

Approximate cost: $20-27

I went to try out DOCs after receiving rave reviews from my cousin. We ordered the prociutto and mushroom pizzas which were 2 of the most expensive on their menu. We did enjoy the pizzas but for the price did not think it was worth what they had charged. The mozzarella left a kind of greasy aftertaste which lingered until i could take a sip of my drink.
They have a very strict policy on not altering their menu in any way which i find a a tad anal. My daughter has numerous allergies and they would not even hear of removing the cheese from a pizza base so that she could enjoy a meal with us instead of having to eat the meal I had pre-prepared for her.

Approximate cost: $22

D.O.C is one of my favourite, home to many Italians and highly regarded as TOP 5 in the WORLD PIZZA JUDGE website on facebook. This is a serious place with serious Italian waiters and it's lovely to hear the accent, however they can seem abusive if they are having a bad day. If you can get past this your in for a fantastic Pizza. They are not cheap so have an extra few dollars when you go. Be warned, get in early as this place is insanely busy.

DOC? Originally I thought this must mean Drunk On Cheese?

Actually quite the opposite! This place is a traditional pizza shop as you would find in Italy as the ingredients are sparingly applied however are rich in flavor. The idea of a good pizza is to have the crust crispy and light, not like the ones you find at pizza hut which are overloaded with cheese and the middle of the pizza being soggy.

We also ordered the radicchio salad and the serving was a good size.

Whilst the pizzas tasted good and were cooked with the chese and other ingredients being real authentic ingredients - much from Italy, I did not find the pizzas really any more inspiring than the pizzas we get from Pizza Espresso in Templestowe which runs on the same mantra of less is more.

As most other reviewers have found, the service was slow - not so much because of the waiters, I think that the place was overloaded as they were also placing chairs and tables on the sidewalk and around the restaurant to cope with the people queuing up to dine here. We queued for about 1/2 hour and then waited another 1/2 hour once our order was placed - we could have ordered pizza hut to deliver in the mean time!!

Overall a good place to have pizza, one of the better ones but once you've had similar at other places such as Pizza Espresso, it's very good but not amazing!

Approximate cost: $20

D.O.C Pizza bar is a great traditional pizza the best in the lygon precedent. The antipasto is sourced from Italy and is all very fresh. The ebst pizza is a simple buffalo mozzarella and prosciutto. However the service is very Italian meaning at their leisure and depending on their mood. Will still go there. The mozzarella DOC is fantastic

Approximate cost: $25

Amazing produce, great staff, feels like you are really in Italy!! A must when in Melbourne. Note book a table before hand as it can get very busy

Approximate cost: $25

the food is amazing: beautiful imported cheese and smallgoods, as well as the best of local produce, complemented by a very good wine selection and italian beers. can get quite noisy, pretty crowded- book ahead if possible.

Authentic Italian cuisine at its best. The place is clean, its new and fresh. they source all their ingredients from overseas stating where everything originated from on the menu. An absolute must visit

Approximate cost: $60
