   Obviously, you wouldn't eat here unless you were going to a concert at the Filene Center. Nevertheless, the food is better than average and the ambiance and convenience can't be beat. Your only real option is the buffet, which is standard barbecue fare. I enjoyed the pulled pork, but found the brisket a bit dry. Being a buffet, both entrees were luke warm rather than hot, but if they were hot, they'd probably both have been dry. The price is a bit stiff for what you get, but you're paying for the convenience of having a short walk to the Filene Center after dinner. The servers all appear to be young college students. Being a buffet, they don't have much serving to do. My wife and I ordered a glass of wine each, and it was brought promptly. Empty plates were cleared promptly, too. And the check, which is electronic, appears quickly when you ask for it. An enjoyable meal, but nothing fantastic.

   We had reservations for 2. A bit confused on arrival. First, one needs a special yellow piece of paper from security to enter Ovations/ F Pig area. Then we see a 12 person deep line for a service window that says “Fermented Pig” okay so do we order here with a reservation? We wanted in line for 10 minutes before spotting a hostess stand under a tent area. Better signage needed here to point out where to go. Buffet gets a grade of “B” by me. Cost is $45. Fish offerings just okay. Mac and Cheese was excellent, but didn’t like the serving spoons all caked up with previous users scooping it up, some comes off on your plate and now you got cold Mac and cheese with hot. Pork/beef was good. Salad offerings good, local ingredients in some cases. Vanilla ice cream (cups) ran out in one of two self serve freezers. Raspberry sorbet was the other choice. Staff top notch! Polite and plenty of them. Can’t beat proximity of Ovations to venue, just steps away. Elevators available. Plenty of shade under a giant tent/canopy. Wolftrap is a gem! 💎

   Wolf Trap is a beautiful venue and the Fermented Pig restaurant has a fully sourced buffet, well worth the price of $44 per person. The waitress was delightful and helpful with suggestions. The food was hot or cold as would have been expected depending upon the edible. This was my third time there over the last couple of years and I will definitely go again next month.

   It was a beautiful setting and so convenient to eat here. Went at 5p and had a leisurely buffet dinner and drinks very reasonable for all the great food. Saw John legend and walked around and then to seats around 730 for show at 8p. Restaurant is open air Looking over an expanse of lawn with covered huge patio. Will always do this if going to wolf trap

   Worst mojito I have ever had. Could not detect lime , rum and despite two dried mint leaves , mint! Very artificial taste. Left it and ordered a white wine. Food was average. Salmon was delicious. Salad ingredients were fresh . Overall, not worth the price but definitely worth the convenience.

   It’s ok but for a hot buffet the food wasn’t hot and had been sitting awhile so dried out. Kind of expensive for what you get but you’re paying for the convenience and location.

    This was my 1st visit to The Fermented Pig at Ovations and it will not be my last! The view was beautiful and serene. The food was buffet style and delicious. The servers were professional and nice. I had a wonderful time and I almost didn't want to leave but the show was starting, so I had to go to my seat. Overall it was a wonderful evening with great food, great service, and an absolutely awesome concert (John Legend).
