Had our son's 21st birthday here. Room was just right to hold 50 people. Gavin and staff were very helpful throughout the event. Food was great with the platters and pizzas. Thank you all so much.

Planned to head to BoneFace for dinner however they were fully booked so decided to walk down to Fermented. Lovely staff greeted us and gave us a table and that's where the experience turned. Most greasy unappetizing food I have literally EVER eaten in my life. The platter is like everything was brought from the frozen food section at count down. Pizza was dripping and the chicken had a foul smell. This is how much we ate before leaving the rest behind. Felt bad telling the counter staff as it was not them that cooked it but would highly advise people look else where. $70 down the drain to go and get more food on the way home.

Awesome staff. Very friendly and patient. The food is always great, on the very rare occasion there is a bit of an issue but nothing major, I must emphasise that this is VERY rare. The atmosphere is awesome as well, love the portraits. My favourite one being the avengers portrait before the toilet.I highly recommend Fermented!

2021-11. They have lost their authentic South African taste. I usually have Ribs with a traditional basting. They have change it to a sweet taste. Not nice and does not suit the food anymore. Every thing has changed, even the salad does not taste the same. - 1 star.2021-10. Had a great rib and chips. Real authentic South African flavor. 4- star.2021-05. Had a pizza this time round. I will leave it a 3 star but should have been demoted to 2 star. Crust was very very hard, too much pepper on the seafood one, there was also hardly anything on it. Did not enjoy it.I have been many a time here but bought burgers and other fast food / junk food without any regrets.2023-01-28. This time round I went back to my original order of Ribs made to the original recipe of 2020 and was not disappointed. Thus the upgrade from 1 star to 4 stars. It was very good and they have redeemed themselves. Why not 5 stars- well the bench we were sitting on was damn uncomfortable. If you go try and use the chairs unless they have updated them. Still a good place for some food. We had great staff, very friendly and decent, which would have gone to 5 stars.

My friend had an issue with her burger but very quickly the staff attended to her and solved it. My 2yo niece approved of the kids pizza and the cheesy garlic bread. I got the Keto Salad and it was good , was just missing a kick - added some hot sauce and it was yum. The dumplings are juicy and really yum flavour.Only thing I would say - they have a beautiful selection of sharing type foods but platters are limited - either $28 for Snack or $70 for Main. Would be nice to have platter sizes and prices and a selection of what can be chosen for that price to be able to enjoy more of what is to offer.Overall we enjoyed our experience, huge portion sizes and the lovely staff. Will visit again for sure.

A great spot for our group of 20+ in a semi-outdoor/covered area.Some of the food was great (pizzas) but the chicken burger bun was very stale and chicken overcooked. Also don't recommend the fried chicken as it's just tiny off cuts of pieces of chicken the size of a 50c coin.A great spot for groups though and awesome selection of drinks.

Ordered through doordash. Pretty good food. We loved the dumplings and pork belly bites. A bit heavy handed with the cheese though! Both on the loaded fries and pizza. Couldn't see or taste the peperoni but it was there somewhere.

The staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating to our requests. The cheese on the pizza wasn't the best and the Pork belly was a bit dry. But the rest of the food went down a treat. I also recommend the bubble tea
