Bar Doh — Restaurant in Melbourne

I’m impressed. I was in serious need of takeaway tonight and Bar Doh came to mind. I had trouble deciding what to have. When I got there and the nice manager made some helpful suggestions Including on a wine to have while I waited for the goods (a McLaren Vale shiraz, very nice). I eventually went for the herb crust pizza with cheese and rock salt. Plus, a caprese salad. These were very good choices. The pizza was delicious. Beautifully composed, cooked and presented. I couldn’t fault it and polished it off mighty swiftly. The salad was optimal too. Generously sized and very tasty. Service was lovely as well from both servers. Friendly, engaging and polite. Genuine too and that’s what you want.

I felt a bit guilty when I left. I’d been driving past this place for years and always thought the shop name was a bit silly and had judged the place accordingly. I couldn’t have been more wrong. It’s a lovely pleasant place inside, much nicer than it looks from the street. The food, wine and service were great as described.

I really enjoyed tonight’s experience. Bar Doh is recommended. ...

I was taken here for dinner last Saturday night and I was really impressed. Super delicious pizzas. It is small and cosy inside. We had a beautiful entree of large mushrooms with toppings and we had desserts - fresh creme brulee. We were so full and we took the rest of the pizza home with us. The staff and owner were very friendly. The owner is a very experienced pastry chef and his pizza dough is really light and thin and tasty. I look forward to going back. **Update 10/1/24 - We got two take away pizzas tonight and we all agreed it wasn't good.The base was tasteless like cardboard. It wasn't the nice thin tasty crust we had before and the topping wasn't nice either it lacked flavour - there was nothing yum about it tonight unfortunately. I don't think we...

The service is friendly and efficient. Restaurant is well maintained and clean. Unfortunately, the food is no where near what the other reviews had set me up to expect. The pizza toppings were minimal and the crust and base were unlike any other pizza I've had before - a stale/hard but chewy and overdone biscuit like situation. Also, got their pesto crust which had minimal flavour and similar odd biscuity chew to it. Not my cup of tea, but given it was my first time and all the other positive reviews - perhaps I may give them another try some day just to see if it was an off day, but in no hurry.

Disappointing as I was really keen to like them given they're down the street. There's many quality local pizza shops in the area...
