    I was so disappointed in DOC, from the service to the food. Maybe a reflection of being overly busy on Mother's Day? The competition is fierce in Carlton so am crossing this one off our list.

    These are the best authentically Italian pizzas in Melbourne! DOC’s tiramisu is up there with the best. We keep going back. Love the Italian vibe. The staff catered for our daughter’s allergies which made the dining experience even more pleasurable.

    Great food and portions. I would suggest avoiding the antipasti bar if you are ordering a pizza. Do try the Tiramisu!
