Several sites ran with this rumor last fall. Not sure if Walt's (and the Neverland Tunnels) have been confirmed or not Here's one article...

There is a second restaurant next to The Edison although the plans don't give it a name. It appears to be a large open space with a second floor mezzanine open to the first floor.

Photo update as of Wednesday, April 20. The "lake side" of the Edison is preparing for a concrete pour in two locations.

Photo update as of Sunday, May 1. Note that this semi-circular area is larger than the above photo, extended about four feet beyond the concrete wall. The extended area appears to be cantilevered over the existing rock embankment.

That's a Heck of a lot of rebar. Having been a concrete guy for a long time this is this is kinda to the point of being excessive but I guess they don't want to worry about it for 50+ years. I bet they are using 10,000psi concrete with fiber mesh too. This is much like an Airport runway, just not as thick.

They don't want a large group of people to cause the part sticking out over the lake to ever collapse.

Photo update as of Thursday, May 5. New concept art on the construction walls outside The Edison.
In this concept art, the name appears on the building.

Looking at the current progress, this is not surprising.
