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 love Mt Terrasse, we always feel welcome, the ambience is wonderful (you could be anywhere in the world) the live music adds to the atmosphere perfectly, but above all the food is the highlight. We’ve never been disappointed and tonight was no exception. The oysters were perfect and the tapas delicious. We will continue to return. Thanks to Boyd and staff for making our dinner so enjoyable.
