Posted: Thursday January 4, 2018 6:51pm EDT by WDWMAGIC Staff

Leaders and representatives from the Patina Restaurant Group and the Walt Disney Company gathered in The Landing at Disney Springs earlier today to officially dedicate four new restaurant venues.

Pizza Ponte and The Edison are already open, with Maria & Enzo's and Enzo's Hideaway to follow in the coming weeks.

Mickey and Minnie joined in the celebration which just happened to be on National Spaghetti Day, and what better way to mark the occasion than with a giant pot of meatballs prepared by the chef's at Maria & Enzo's.

Check out our review of The Edison and Pizza Ponte, and stay tuned for more coverage from Maria & Enzo's and Enzo's Hideaway.

Went here for dinner a few weeks back. We had the burrata salad, chicken parm and Busiate con Granchio (pasta/lump crab meat). The presentation felt very bare. In addition the chicken parm (intentionally) had the nub of a bone on it, which felt very, very strange. Overall we felt that the quality of the entrees was about as good as an olive garden. That's also ignoring the extra markup being at Disney Springs brings. We will not be dining there again, but will hopefully be trying the Hideaway soon.

Happy Easter! This isn’t big news or anything, but we had the Easter Sunday Brunch at Maria & Enzo’stoday. It was a phenomenal experience. Prices were $35 adult and $15 for kids. First time there and I thought that it was a beautiful location. I literally almost had everything in the buffet. They are considering doing a smaller version of this every Sunday. I just hope they keep this Easter brunch. Definitely the best buffet on property.

Right.

I like the interior! Nice and clean and elegant

I thought Walt's plane would be in there somewhere. Oh well.

Right. I haven't seen the inside in person but when I saw these pictures I thought, I like it. It's just a feeling that doesn't require specifics. Now I will say, when I saw it from the outside last weekend I thought the Hideaway signage was a bit overdone and gaudy. Seems like it should be more 'secret' like the Morimoto hidden bar entrance. Just to be more fun. JMO, I'm not outraged about it.

Looks like the main dining room on a cruise ship.

It's not what I would have expected, but I think it's nice. But I can also see why people dislike it. I don't think Maria and Enzo's was necessary based on the other restaurants around and what's offered. Would have liked to have seen Walt's come to light instead. Oh well.

You know. If you think of it as a "Vegas night club" the layout and shape of the ballroom make sense. Put the DJ booth were the grand staircase is and you have a layout that you'll see in a few Vegas clubs. The odd 1st class lounge, starts to make sense as a side bar area. The high ceiling, the balancy area around it on the 2nd floor, all make sense. (granted, the color / finishes would change) But if you then think about it, as "it was going to be a nightclub, but... crap how can we ..... make into this avation themed thing.. that serves pasta... for no real reason..." then, it makes even MORE sense and if then assuem they were so far out of the box and had to borrow the sailor uniforms from the boat house.. then you've nailed it!

It is much better in person than in pictures as I have recently discovered, especially at night. Although, that first Class Lounge is still terrible.

The area with the speckled floor looks really cheap. And no, I’m not a doom and gloom type. Agree with the poster above...a dorm dining hall.

I'm with you, I like it.

ChrisFLJan 05, 2018

I guess I'm in the minority but I like the style of the inside main area...it's bright and airy without being too overdone

Has the best spaghetti carbonara I've ever had... Their other entrees are quite good as well... https://www.enzos.com/
