D.O.C - Melbourne

Hands down one of the best pasta i’ve ever tried in Melbourne! The staff were amazing and the food was even better! Very accessible and comfy

We had a great experience at DOC. The food was fantastic, and the service was too! Unfortunately I wasn't very well and couldn't finish my meal, and the staff wouldn't let me pay for it, as I hadn't eaten very much. I was overwhelmed at their thoughtfulness and generosity, and would definitely recommend DOC.

Great stock, food knowledge and service. Frederiko and co make the best lasagne in Victoria go next door and try. Fantastic. Saluti.

The pasta at DOC was delicious, especially the gnocchi. The bread that comes with each dish is great for cleaning up the leftover sauce. The service was very friendly and efficient, and took care to let us share easily. We sat outside as the weather was nice and the heat lamps were very warm (probably unnecessary during the early evening but definitely appreciated as the night went on). The table was a little small for sharing though.

On one of the busiest eating streets in Melbourne, DOC Espresso serves up delicious Italian food. Lygon Street is famous for its Italian eateries, and DOC easily keeps up with the rest. This place is always packed, proving it's popularity.<br/ <br/ We recently dined in on a rainy weekend night. We were seated outside, as it was extremely busy; but it wasn't a problem as there was plenty of protection, and outdoor heaters nearby. In fact, the soft rain added to the lovely atmosphere.<br/ <br/ Service was impeccable and attentive, with our drinks being topped up regularly. We couldn't resist their famous pasta, which was so good. The mushroom ravioli was divine, and the pork rigatoni special was also amazing. The pasta was perfectly al dente, and both sauces were full of flavour. We also had a delicious farro salad with a squid ink tuille and the textures of this were sublime.<br/ <br/ There is very good reason why DOC is so popular. With it's Italian flavours and lovely staff, this venue has a cosy atmosphere that just makes you feel so welcome.
