stopped here a few weks back wow pizza awesome fresh tasty reasonable prices best pizza in mornington thats for sure
I love, love, love the pizza here! When you come to this place, it is like you are stepping into a Pizzeria anywhere in Italy. The pizza is made the "real" and "traditional" way, that hasn't been corrupted by the "more is more" idea that most Australian pizza places live by.
What you will find is quality, fresh ingredients (you can see them making it all, due to the open play design of the kitchen area). You will be served by actual fresh-off-the-boat Italian men (or women, I'm sure they have ladies too), and the whole place will look and smell like an Italian pizzeria.
I would recommend a cold meat platter to share, and a pizza to share, as they are large. There isn't much on their pizza's which means you will be able to taste what there is - which will leave you very happy indeed.
Everyone thinks they know where to find the greatest pizza in Melbourne, but if their answer isn't DOC in Mornington I know not to take them very seriously! Coming here is an absolute delight, because these people live and breathe good artisan food. Don't expect to come here and find your pizza packed to the brim with toppings, because here they favour quality over quantity. Only the best buffalo mozzarella, prosciutto, fresh figs and hand cured meats will do. Only the freshest herbs. And the wood oven they use to fire up the pizza gives everything a smoky flavour that you just can't find anywhere else!
I love that all of the waiters are actually Italian and passionate about the place. You can have a laugh with them and they are happy to talk to you about the food and explain a few things. Even the menu comes with a giant picture of Italy outlining what food is produced where.
The deli and fresh food market are also not to be missed! Highly recommend the 'sweet pizza' for dessert, my favourite of all time - white Belgian chocolate melted onto a crusty pizza base, home made vanilla bean ice cream and fresh local strawberries. Yum!!
Approximate cost: $20-25
This place has the most amazing Martguerita pizza, so full of flavour. They use a variety of cheeses and sauces which makes every pizza different. Great atmosphere and deli but it can get quite loud. They also don't take bookings but we are usually seated within ten minutes. Well worth the wait...
Love DOC for a casual meal, GREAT traditional Italian food, good atmosphere, fantastic deli and greengrocer. YUM
Approximate cost: $22
