Published November 13, 2026

Patina Group reached a settlement with the National Labor Relations Board in a labor case involving several Disney Springs restaurants, according to reports published Friday, November 13, 2026. The reported case began in 2024 after workers at five Patina Group-operated Disney Springs restaurants announced union efforts.

As of Friday, November 13, the reported settlement involves Patina Group, not Disney directly, and the restaurants named in the coverage are Morimoto Asia, Pizza Ponte, Maria & Enzo’s, The Edison, and Enzo’s Hideaway at Disney Springs.

Patina Group operates multiple third-party restaurants at Walt Disney World, including locations at Disney Springs and EPCOT. The reported National Labor Relations Board settlement follows a two-year labor dispute connected to workers at the five Disney Springs restaurants.

The coverage did not include operational changes for guests, restaurant closures, menu changes, reservation policy changes, or dining availability changes tied to the settlement.

What it means for your trip

For now, treat this as labor news, not a dining-plans disruption. If you have a reservation at Morimoto Asia, Maria & Enzo’s, The Edison, or Enzo’s Hideaway, nothing in the reported settlement says you need to cancel or replace it.

If you were planning Disney Springs as a no-park-ticket dining night, keep your backup practical: Pizza Ponte remains the kind of quick, low-friction option you can use if a table-service plan does not work out, while the other named restaurants are the ones to watch if your group is set on a sit-down meal.

If a hard-to-get Disney Springs dining time is what you are chasing, SupaPark’s dining Drop Watch can alert you when a cancellation opens; you still grab the reservation yourself in My Disney Experience.
