it was called that in the Orlando restaurant article although no confirmation at all from Disney.

This is the best! I wish they built this kind of avatarLand. At least they would know what kind of food to serve. Nothing but cabbages.My vote:

I guess we will be hearing more about this......seems this will be the Tunnels.
Here is the Orlando Weekly article: https://www.orlandoweekly.com/Blogs...rant-maria-and-enzos-coming-to-disney-springs
From the article:
"A new Italian concept is coming to Disney Springs by early next year.
The new concept, Maria & Enzo's, is the brainchild of the Patina Restaurant Group, who also operate Morimoto Asia, as well as Tutto Italia and Via Napoli in Epcot, and the soon-to-open Edison.
Similar to the Edison, the new Italian outpost will also feature a speakeasy bar element, which will be part of an underground rum-running tunnel. The restaurant is also expected to feature a fast-casual component.
The restaurant will be part of the same complex that also houses the Edison. "

This may also be the building that was supposed to be Walt's.
It is. Walts is no more.

I looked up a job listing at Patina's site and this is how they describe the "complex":
"Four new concepts that will be connected as part of one large complex and will be introduced to Disney Springs in the Fall of 2017. Each of the concepts is housed in key locations that play an integral role in the Disney Springs origin story, such as the former airline terminal, an underground rum running tunnel, and the former electrical power plant, providing rich territory for story-telling. The locations will treasure Italian authenticity create unique cultural immersion experiences through fine cuisine, beverages, and atmosphere."
Yep, sounds like there is no Walt's anymore.

Is there any more information about how Walt's would have been? Theme, menu, backstory, decor, etc.?

This sounds like a Disney-branded version of Eataly.
