D.O.C is real Italian eating and age old simplicity refreshed with contemporary flair. A celebration of heritage. A joy in sharing. Authentic, exuberant and outrageously Italian.

Pizzas were delicious. We had the Rustica (sausage and potatoes), Tiger Prawn and the Quattro Formaggi (4 cheeses). All 3 of us were very happy with what we ordered. We sat outside which tho it was a bit windy is totally recommended - fresh air is the best. Split bills at the end was greatly appreciated.

We enjoyed a delicious buffalo mozzarella and mortadella appetizer then a Pizza DOC with mozzarella and flor di latte cheeses with basil. The pizza was amazing, fresh and cheesy.

So glad we found this DOC tucked away behind the main drag at Southbank. Excellent cocktails, pizza, wine and salad. Staff were brilliant! Great place to go before a show in the arts precinct.

We had a lovely dinner at DOC, food came out quickly and was delicious, and the service was good as well considering we visited on a busy Saturday night. Would definitely come back.

Hostess and waitress very snippy and not accommodating until we asked for our bill without ordering food. Then decided to accommodate us just to get a the dinner bill. Very rude and rolled eyes and talked with other waitresses when we asked to move inside out of the cold. So many better restaurants on the water!! So not wait your time and money!

Pleasant evening with an old friend. The pizza was very good quality, served quite quickly too. It was busy on a warm evening but we sat inside and were able to chat and drink lovely wine. Decent spot on the South bank of the Yarra.
