We had lunch on our recent trip here on September 19, 2018. We did not have a reservation, but were seated right away. The restaurant was immaculate, the service was excellent, and the food was phenomenal! I highly recommend Maria and Enzo’s. I don’t think you would be disappointed.
Pros:

We like staying at the Beach Club but it's definitely mostly about location. Everything is fine there, but many of the other Deluxe resorts compare favorably. There is no substitute for location however and the easy access to Epcot is wonderful.

Love this restaurant. It is a must do every time we go to the Studios. We love the pizzas, salads and the meatball sandwiches. Love that you can eat in or out. We usually go upstairs so we can look out. Looking forward to going back.
Pros:
As stated above.Cons:
Don't like that it closes at 4 pm. Maybe when Star Wars Land opens, it will stay open later.Review of Tiffins

We loved Tiffins! Not huge portions-but that's a good thing. The food was exquisite, comparable to fine restaurants in big cities. Even better, we bought the Rivers of Light package and the food was cheaper than if we had bought off the menu (especially if you have the surf and turf). You could actually buy the package, save money on dinner, and throw away the ROL tickets if you wanted to.
Pros:
Food quality and service and decorCons:

Great for a counter service lunch. Not so much the pizza - too much crust but love the meatball sandwich and caeser salad.
Pros:
Seating inside and outside on a not too hot day.Cons:

This was our 7th visit this resort (Sept 7th to Sept 21st) and we certainly noticed a few changes since we were here last in 2014.
We were a little disappointed not to have any welcoming towel Mickeys though I was expecting this as it’s been mentioned before in other reviews.
Our room was fine in Building 17, by a smaller pool which we used most, with only one visit to Ol’ Man Island. We found the main pool to be a big disappointment - they have made it shallower (why?) and there were organised games for the kids all the time. This is fine but the girl delivering these activities had a really whiny voice that got very grating after awhile.
While the food in the food court is fine, we found a general increase in cost across the board. $1.69 is unacceptable for a single piece of fruit. One morning we had pastries, juice and fruit for 3 and it cost over $35 - unacceptable! Disney can still make money on the food and drink served without such ridiculous mark-ups.
The bus issue also needs a mention - the provision of buses for this resort is ridiculous! For such a big resort, I cannot believe that some buses are still shared with French Quarter. It is obvious that Disney are trying to do something about this as on a couple of occasions, a large bendy bus arrived which carried far more people. Also annoying was the trip around the entire resort before arriving at the main South Depot where most people would disembark. This would be the first drop off point, not the last.
We will probably return as we do love the resort but hope that standards haven’t dropped further. As other people have already said, this may be a moderate resort, but it’s still expensive per night when compared to other off property resorts and hotels and as such should have the standards to match.
