Made ADRs for Spice Road but don't see much about it on here. Reviews?
 
We've eaten there a few times and enjoyed it. Mediterranean dishes but different from Restaurant Marrakesh. Tapas as well as entrees. Good wine too.
 
I've only gone once & ordered apps. The calamari was slightly spicy & really good as was the brie app. I've seen pretty positive reviews of the entrees on review sites.
 
We go every trip and we go twice a year. It's a mix of everything along the spice road, good service, great small plates and you can't beat the view.
 

We went in August 2015 and loved it! We had virtually all the tapas and topped it off with a great view of Illuminations
 
Great to hear! We also made a lunch ADR here - the menu has what we typically eat, and I am looking forward to a nice strong afternoon coffee to go with that incredible-sounding Chocolate Pyramid! The interior looks beautiful, also.
 
We went as a party of 8 and ordered every small plate item and got a second of a couple. Us ladies shared a pitcher of sangria and the guys tried a beer of the region. We got a couple desserts to share as well. It was very yummy.
 
We went last May just for a glass of wine and the Hot Brie Dip. I cannot remember the name of the wine, but it was a white wine. It was Moroccan. Both were very good! I also love the atmosphere in there.
 
Love Spice Road!! Great spot for sharing dishes and having drinks. We even like the patio on cool nights since they have heaters. It's usually not too crowded, great service and it's one spot I feel like I'm not at Disney but a market cafe somewhere.

PS. I don't like spicey food but I enjoy their food. So many great flavors.
 
Really good. We went in July. We liked the hummus fries, hummus, and lamb sliders. Great view!

NOTE1: Spice Road Table is a lake-side eatery at Epcot Morocco. It's a "Table Service"
eatery, and serves tapas and small-plate meals. Menu items include zesty harissa chicken
drumettes, Mussels Tagine cooked in traditional earthenware pots, garlic jumbo shrimp and
Mediterranean omelets with sausage, potatoes and caramelized onions. Spice Road Table is
open daily with World Showcase, 11:00am to Park close, serving lunch and dinner. Inspired
by the outdoor cafes along Mediterranean, Spice Road Table overlooks the Lagoon and offers
waterfront views. The eatery has great views of Illuminations,
.
NOTE2: If you wish an ADR to see Illuminations from the eatery, I recommend 1½-hours
prior to the Illuminations start-time. It is not hard to use up the time with food and drink.
Any closer, other people will be at those tables, and are unlikely to surrender their view.
The only caveat is there might be tree limbs in the way of a perfectly unobstructed view.
 
We just did the Candlelight processional, and had early dinner at 5:00 at Spice road... We love it... this is our second year doing this and I see it as becoming a tradition. Great view inside or outside... Service is good, the food might just be a bit slow coming out, but its worth the wait... the seasoning is spot on, Calamari and brie are our favorite appetizers, DH gets the mix grill Skewers, I get the lamb very good, Chocolate pyramid really tasty not overly sweet...
 
We didn't like it. I had the spicy garlic shrimp that wasn't spicy. My DH had the Coriander Crusted Rack of Lamb, he thought it was bland & not that great. But the worse part was the service for us.
 
We have eaten there twice but both times were only appetizers. The location is great and I really like the decor and feel of the place. My wife and I love Mediterranean food and while not bad we found the offerings at Tangerine Cafe better and a better price. This restaurant could be so great with some small tweaks but I do think it is worth a shot for anyone to try. It is the easiest lagoon side place to get into.
 
Thanks for the feedback! Was able to get a 9:15 adr (10:30 illuminations) so giving it a shot.

Oh no!
 
We went last year. I ran the half last January and it was really the only place we could get reservations that night (I wasn't sure if I would be able to move that night which is why we didn't really ADR, but I was surprisingly fine). Went in with so-so expectations just due to the fact nothing else was really available and like you, I hadn't heard a ton about it. I was REALLY impressed. All the food was very good, and the atmosphere (aside from the drunk doctors/nurses outside the restaurant causing a ruckus) was great. If you like the sound of the menu, it is executed very well. We will be back there, that's for sure.
