    Date of visit 25 February 2025. The review reflects my personal experience and honest opinion. It's available on both Google and Instagram. For our 7th anniversary, we wanted to try somewhere different and were recommended DOC Pizza & Mozzarella Bar—and wow, we’re so glad we went! The service was outstanding, especially from Mary, who clearly loves her job. She made us feel so welcome and even offered take-home boxes for our leftovers. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a smile and seated promptly in a spacious setting. I loved that we could watch the chefs preparing and cooking the food—it added to the experience. We ordered two pizzas along with a focaccia bread, and everything was exceptional. The pizza base was perfectly cooked—light yet satisfying. The fresh, high-quality ingredients made every bite mouthwatering. I’m already planning to go back to try more pizzas, and I’ve heard their sweet pizzas are incredible! The saying "less is best on pizza" really applies here—they use just the right amount of toppings, and the touch of sea salt on the focaccia was a great addition. I would 100% return before I leave, and if I’m ever in the area again, this will be my go-to spot! Food Quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambience: 5/5 Value for Money: 5/5 Cleanliness and Hygiene: 5/5 Innovation and Uniqueness: 5/5

    Food and table service excellent as always. However not a great welcome. Lady on reception who showed us to our table was indifferent and said not one word. Definitely needing some customer service training on how to make clients feel welcome.

    On our most recent visit to DOCs, our server was Abbie and she was very helpful, efficient and friendly. The food arrived quickly and was cooked to perfection - as always. We always get the Pizza DOC and lasagna to share, always finishing off with a white chocolate sweet pizza. We always enjoy our visits to DOCs and already cannot wait to go back.

    We have been regulars since Docs opened.we usually do not go during the busy season however have been twice in the last few weeks and have been disappointed with the quality of the pizza. We will go back during the quieter months to see if the old excellent quality of the food is back. Fingers crossed as we need decent affordable restaurants on the Peninsula.
