Restaurant is on the outside of an industrial estate, out of the city centre, however the quality and taste of the food is lovely. Price of food is also reasonable. Plenty of customers, which is a good sign. Owner Ali, is an excellent chef and went round to each table to ensure everyone was happy. Only downside is the location, which is why I have given 4 stars.

The booking was for ten friends staying at The Premier Inn, Holmer to celebrate the wedding of a close friends daughter the following day. The choice of food is fantastic and also amazing value for money. Ali and his staff were all very friendly and we all had a great time. Everyone in our group commented on how great this place is and would certainly go back if the opportunity arises

Visited this restaurant and really, really wanted to love this place! However, we went on a Saturday evening and we were mostly on our own in the cold restaurant while the owner and his young assistant concentrated on the delivery orders. After waiting for approx 45 minutes we were feeling seriously neglected. The food, when it eventually came was fine but the whole experience was lost really, which was a shame. Because of this, I wouldn’t go again or recommend it to anyone else.

As much as the restaurant is situated in one of the most unorthodox locations one can imagine, it is by no means a reason to not visit Ali's venue. Equally, don't be put off by the fact that for the most part, Ali works on his own! On both those points, I harboured great misgivings about booking a table. I couldn't have been more wrong. Not only did the food arrive in a timely manner (there were approximately 8 other diners there at the time of our visit) - and actually quicker than some other better manned restaurants I've been to - but the food was delicious, freshly cooked and of a superbly highest quality! We had a great evening and Ali was a wonderfully friendly and personable guy who acted as chef, waiter and very good host. The only thing to note is that he doesn't sell alcohol, and if that's your thing then he encourages you to bring your own. 10/10 for Ali! Definitely recommend it!

I love this place and Ali is one of Hereford’s finest. Every time I go to Med I am never disappointed. The restaurant is clean with an open kitchen which is always nice. Value for money is really good and I have never had a bad dish served. Don’t let the location put you off!

Upon arrival Ali was friendly and showed us to a table, the external of the building by no means shows what will await you inside, the food is very very good and the atmosphere is relaxed, take your own alcoholic beverages- soft drinks available to purchase, glasses supplied, very happy to recommend Ali and his little piece of The Med here in Hereford. Had the muscles in sauce and dough balls as a starter and was very pleasantly surprised very tasty and plentiful. My partner Rosie had hummus and dough balls for her starter and thoroughly enjoyed it. For our main meal I had polo Gamberone -chicken and prawn peppers,onions, garlic chilli and tomatoes and spices. Delicious. Rosie had the ortaggio mixed vegetables with rich hot passata. We had Nan bread and rice with apricot and almonds. Enjoyed the meal so much I forgot to take photos to post.

This is a gem of a restaurant, hidden away on an industrial estate, not your first choice for an evening out, but the food changes all of that! A wide choice on the menu and all cooked with so much flavour, we will definitely be returning, but it has raised a new dilemma? Do you order the same thing because it was so nice, or do you try something else? I wanted to mark it down because we couldn't buy wine to have with the meal, but that would b unfair as the food was worth more than a 5, Great restaurant, I look forward to coming back!

Friendly owner, nice clean restaurant, very reasonably priced, all food cooked to order so consequently very slow service. Good choice on menu but sadly for me I found the savoury food sweet in taste which is not something I enjoy. I also noticed that my main course tasted very similar to my starter (as if chef has a favourite spice that is added to more than one dish.) My husband thoroughly his melt in the mouth beef stifado.

I was looking for somewhere different from a pub meal to celebrate our golden wedding anniversary. We were staying in Hereford, and I had no idea about local restaurants, but the Mediterranee name caught my eye and sounded attractive, so I booked a table. We were quite disconcerted by the location in an industrial estate when we arrived, and the exterior of the building didn't look too promising. We were in for a treat. A beautifully cooked fixed-price meal from a menu with a wide range of choices. Ali, the manager and chef, was kept busy with take-away orders, but it was a shame that there weren't more customers eating in. He deserves more.

I’m relatively new to Hereford so still finding new places to eat out. I’d seen Mediterrane when taking my car to the garage opposite and decided to give it a go when I had friends come to visit. Really glad I did as we had a great time. We were the first ones in their which is always a little awkward, but straight away we were de to feel very welcome by Ali and our waitress. The food was great and such good value, I’ll definitely go back, and remember to take a bottle next time.

Tucked away on an industrial estate - but don't be put off by the location. Ali said he moved there to get away from drunks calling in. He wanted somewhere you had to drive to, to ensure good quality clientele. £15 buys you a starter, main course & side dish. It's bring your own alcohol, and buy soft drinks, so very economical. I cannot speak highly enough of Ali, his staff and the incredible food. Every mouthful was excellent - we both had a starter of poco polo (chicken on skewers), We both had cod dishes (Mahe Mahe & Merluzzo Formaggi). The two rice dishes were rice with apricot, onion and almond and rice with peppers and fried onion.One of the best (if not the best) meals we have eaten out. So impressed that we took flyers to the B&B we were staying at in Hereford so they could recommend the restaurant.We are back in Hereford in 5 weeks and hoping to call in again for another delicious meal.

This restaurant reminds me of those gems you find on holiday that don't look much from the outside but serve the most amazing food. This place is just that! We were a party of six and we all had something different from the very comprehensive menu and enjoyed the food so much we all agreed we'd return. When Ali, the owner, isn't slaving in the kitchen he comes over to the tables for a chat. As others have said, you are welcome to bring your own drinks and the evening was just like a party! Thanks also to the girls that help Ali with serving. They were amazing too!

All the sides ie salad, rice, potatoes and dough balls with Hummus were prepared and presented nicely and accompanied the other dishes well.

In a large industrial estate, this is well off the beaten track. Plain and simple decor in accordance with its setting. The extensive menu offers food from all round the Mediterranean, but it's all done through the filter of owner Ali, an Iranian, so comes with a Persian flavour. No worse for that. No licence, so if you turn up without your own wine, you are limited to water or a fizzy drink. Starters are limited - mainly versions of doughballs - but there is a wide range of main courses. Lots of delicious flavours and it was well worth the fairly long wait to get our food. Service is more than friendly - it's part of the deal and we enjoyed chats with both waitress and Ali himself. £15 set charge for two courses. We added a slice of tarte citron to round off a memorable meal.

Great value 2 course meal for 4 with 2 soft drinks for £60. Remember to take your own wine/beer if you’re drinking. He takes cash or card.

I can't believe we hadn't eaten here before, but so glad we did! The variety of dishes made it feel like being on holiday in the Mediterranean which can only be a good thing. The food took a while from our initial call, but it was a Friday night and all cooked freshly from scratch. Definitely worth the wait. The Dough balls and garlic bread are delicious and thick. Can't wait to try a pizza next. The Spanish potatoes are a portion enough shared between 2, as is the rice if you have multiple sides. Really looking forward to trying one of their themed dinner evenings too. Can't wait for another meal, recommended.

We went for a special family celebration, just six of us, and were delighted by our friendly welcome. Jess, who has been 10 years at this restaurant, and Sophie, on her first day, were both friendly and careful. Ali is the chef proprietor and cooked a delicious range of Mediterranean dishes, most of them referencing his origins in Iran, which has one of the best cuisines in the world. Vegetarian moussaka went down well with three of us but the meat dishes were popular too. Excellent starters. We brought our own wine and probably benefited health wise from the absence of puddings, unavailable so close to the re-opening of Mediterrane after lockdown. A very good evening in an extremely unlikely location.

I personally feel no matter what I write, I am not going to do this review any justice because the food and the experience we received at The Mediterrane on Friday night was out of this world, was welcoming from the get go, my partner had found this restaurant on trip advisor, yes I have lived in Hereford all my life, and was shocked to find out this restaurant had been in Hereford for 20 years, and up until last night I had never been to the place, well I must admit I have definitely been missing out, also the reviews on trip advisor were fantastic, not one bad review and I can totally understand why, I have no idea how Ali does it, a single gentleman cooking for so many people (also does delivery) the food is cooked fresh and in front of you, I was literally sat there in awe of this man, the waitress was also amazing (I’m sorry I forgot your name ) going round every table to make sure everyone was happy, which believe me they were, some of them were regulars and have been going there for years, watching everyone’s food being brought to their table my mouth was watering thank you for the experience and the lovely food will definitely be back *****

We were one of only two couples in that night but the layout, the open kitchen and Ali's easy going, friendly style made it feel as if we were dining with friends - a lovely relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. For the food itself, well, I honestly don't know how Ali does it for the price. We had a great range of starters, and two wonderful main courses.

As a foodie however the only very minor comments I’d make is the the steak was slightly over cooked and the lamb in the moussaka was slightly over seasoned with cinnamon so slightly out of balance.

Forget Jamie, Ask or Zizzi, here is the real deal. High quality food, served with a smile in simple surroundings. If you want somewhere posh, forget it. If you're happy to visit an industrial estate in an unfashionable part of Hereford then it's well worth the trip. The food is not only delicious but plentyful. I will be returning to work through the menu.

Where to start .... well all the dishes we have tried so far are mouth-wateringly good. We have now been here twice and on both occasions Ali the chef/owner was so friendly and welcoming. His freshly prepared dishes are cooked to perfection, but must point out his dough balls, garlic bread with cheese, pita and naan bread are lethal as you cannot stop eating them. His meat dishes are pure heaven and melt in the mouth, with the added flavour explosion. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Another wonderful buffet evening. Food freshly prepared by Chef/owner Ali & served piping hot & full of flavour. Meat and poultry always so tender. Been loads of times and always received a personal, friendly welcome. Lovely informal atmosphere and exceptional value for money. I guarantee you will never go home hungry from here. Take your own alcohol. Buffet nights tend to be on a Wednesday or Friday - dates are put on their Facebook page. Don’t be put off by the wording of “buffet” - Ali prepares a selection of regional food for starters & mains & you go up to the hot counter where you are served your food piping hot & freshly cooked.

We all had different dishes cooked and served by the very friendly proprietor. The restaurant is rustic but homely. I would recommend it for its good food and reasonable prices.

Relaxed atmosphere, don't be in a rush. Great Food. Bring your own alcohol. I can see why people in a rush and the snobby type would criticise, but it's more excellent home cooking at a relaxed pace.

We chose to go to the Mediterrane Restaurant for a change in food and were very pleasantly surprised. The greeting from the chef was warm and welcoming. He gave recommendations and explained the food so we could chose what we liked most. The cost was very reasonable. The service was as quick as you wanted.

We went for the first time tonight with friends who have been a few times. The food was delicious and Ali is a funny and entertaining host. He cooks the food when you order so you need to relax while you wait and not be impatient . We loved the slightly basic feel it has - it reminded us of the atmosphere in off the beaten track restaurants in the real Mediterranean. Don’t be put off by the location or the style of building or the minority of negative reviews. Love it and will be going back.

I just feel sad that I have just discovered this restaurant after 3years of living in Hereford. The food is delicious and service is 5 star standard. Highly recommend this! Also they have a great Instagram page.

Ali is the charming owner of this strangely located restaraunt. Situated on an industrial estate, it is a haven for excellent middle eastern and mediterranean food for a good price.

Fantastic food as always. A great way to try different dishes from around the Mediterranean, and the Lebanese food was lovely, a real treat for the taste buds. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant, and Ali, is great too, very friendly with a wicked sense of humour, and his homemade dough balls are legendry! It's great value for money and you can bring your own drinks!

I come from a Mediterranean background. Nothing prepared me for the onslaught of delicious tastes from this restaurant nor the whacky character of the chef. What an excellent night out. Reasonably priced.

I took my wife and my daughter to this restaurant this evening. What we all agreed on Was that food was amazing. Flavours of my lamb meatballs Started with a sweetness, moving through a juicy meatiness, leaving me with an amazing spice combination.

Fantastic food - home-cooked. So very tasty and so much of it. Extremely good value for money. Nice music - just loud enough for ambience, but could still talk to each other. Cheerful, friendly chef who worked so hard all evening. Plenty of space for my stepson in his electrical wheelchair.

we booked in here for my sons birthday, unfortunatly England where playing in the afternoon, so Ali was let down by staff,so was left to do the lot, no panic he produced 6 fantastic meals and plentiful, we even took a doggy bag home with us. If you get the chance to visit this place dont hesitate, you wont be disappointed. Thanks Ali for a wonderful evening.

Eight of us are ate here for the first time and had a fantastic experience. The food was varied and delicious. Ali was a great host and cook, would recommend dining here to anyone. It was a very relaxed and wonderful evening spent. We all eat out regularly and have to say this was truly authentic food and very well priced.

Great venue, great food, laid back and informal, leaving you to relax and enjoy the occasion. Able to bring own drinks, decorations, celebration cake, music, etc. Plenty of free parking. It's just a great place to create your own unique celebration.

To be honest, I am hesitant to write a review of this place for Trip Advisor. I feel like if too many people know about this restaurant then it might be inundated and make it harder for me to get a reservation! My wife and I went along for the first time after talking about visiting many times! We saw that “Moroccan Buffet Night” being advertised on Facebook and decided to finally give it a go. Booking was easy and I got a confirmation email straight back. The location doesn’t seem like an obvious place to have a restaurant and if you are going along for the view out of the window then you might be disappointed! However it was easy to get to and easy to park. When we walked in the owner greeted us from the kitchen and invited us to sit down. We cracked open our bottle of wine (BYO) and waited to be called up for food. There was a good number of people and a nice friendly atmosphere. Going up to get our food was fun and interesting, we chatted to a few of the other customers in the very short queue and when we got our food we were talked through what we were being given. It was all delicious! The main course was equally as nice and we were definitely full by the end. The owner came over at the end and had a chat to all of the tables, adding to the intimate feel of the place. The best compliment I can give is that the whole experience felt like we were on holiday somewhere exotic!! All in all a great experience and we will definitely be going again! I have read some of the negative reviews and all I can say is, if you are expecting Pizza Express or Nando’s, then please go there. This place is for people who appreciate great food and great experiences and aren’t too caught up in the overly commercial UK restaurant scene. A hidden gem, Hereford’s little secret. Let’s hope it stays that way!!

I went to the Persian buffet with a couple of friends, it was really nice. Also got Just Eat from this restaurant a couple of times, highly recommended

Certainly to find this restaurant you need to look for it as it is tagged away in an industrial state but it is a good family friendly unassuming place with friendly staff and good atmosphere. Food is average with some decent dishes and others not so great. Good value for money but not for gourmets
