Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! Place looking incredible post-refurbishment. The staff went above and beyond, making sure every need was met, and the atmosphere was both welcoming and elegant. Attention to detail was impeccable, and everything from the service to the ambiance was first-rate. The service is that old-school Italian energy which Lygon St is so desperately in need of returning to, my partner and I felt like we were in a busy restaurant directly in Italy. Highly recommend DOC for anyone seeking a memorable experience and superb food. Cannot recommend enough the burrata and panzanella! We went a bit Tuscan inspired with our menu choices as our waiter easily found a Tuscan Chianti Classico that paired incredibly with each dish. Ci vediamo presto !
