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.

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.

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!

Definitely worth the price! I ended up enjoying a variety of starters instead of a large meal, and everything was delicious. The cocktails were also top-notch. I discovered this place while searching for bubble tea online, and I’m glad I did because their bubble tea is also incredible. I highly recommend this spot—10/10!

It would be great if they offered more platter sizes, prices, and a variety of choices for those prices so we could enjoy a wider selection of their offerings. Overall, we had a lovely experience with generous portion sizes and friendly staff. We will definitely be back!
