The pizza quality is consistently outstanding at DOC. Would go so far as saying it’s the best in Melbourne or at least our favourite! Giovanni was excellent and very attentive to our table despite it being busy.

Exceptional customer service. We booked an outdoor table but it was raining so the venue reserved an inside table and an outside table under an umbrella so we had a choice. Very friendly staff. Food and drinks were prompt and easy to order. Highly recommend!

The quality of the food was excellent, service was fantastic. Our waitress was very attentive and courteous. Considering it was Christmas Day, some Christmas decorations would have improved the ambience, some bon bons on the tables etc would have made it a more festive atmosphere. If it wasn't Christmas Day, I'd say it was excellent in all respects.

We had dinner at the 8.30 booking last night and were served by several different staff - all were the loveliest humans and the perfect combination of friendly, down-to-earth, and helpful. The food as always was exceptional - highly recommend the Zucchini pizza! We've been to Leo's countless times and have never been disappointed.
