THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Doc's Restaurant Review:

Right across the street from busy Orlando Regional Medical Center on the edge of downtown, Doc’s is a pleasant surprise in an otherwise ordinary strip. Diners can choose the more formal dining rooms with a sleek bar near the door, or more casual al fresco dining with a big-screen TV. The lunch menu features dishes from a classic Reuben to chicken salad with grapes, walnuts, red onion and currants. Dinner is elegant, offering preparations like pan-seared grouper with risotto, or a grilled filet mignon with a wild mushroom and truffle demi-glace. Many of chef Neil Connolly's creations reflect his New England roots---the memorable Cape Cod lobster stew is a decadent bowl of milky, sherry-infused broth and tender chunks of lobster. And he makes some of the best crab cakes in town. The thoughtful wine list has more than 100 selections. Doc’s is home to the east coast branch of the California-based Professional Culinary Institute, with chef Connolly on the staff (and still in the restaurant kitchen).
