Located at the "Gateway to Southtown," the Historic and Majestic Firehouse #7 is home to Battalion. After a nearly two year renovation, "The Rock" has been restored as the crown jewel of Southtown. Overlooking the spectacular downtown cityscape and the famous Tower of Americas, Battalion's contemporary design merges perfectly alongside the historic building's strong, yet weathered 1920's craftsmanship. Chef Davis has created an extensive menu of fresh pastas, char-grilled meats, stunning vegetable dishes and Italian classics. Complimenting the menu is a comprehensive wine list and a refreshingly original cocktail program.

    Food was absolutely spectacular. We ordered multiple dishes and ate family style. The roasted beets were out of this world. Fantastic food and service.

    Just a really lovely customer experience altogether. The hosts called me about 2 hours before to confirm my reservation and asked if we were driving ourselves because they didn’t have free parking. When we got there, they opened the door and immediately brought us to our table. The server knew the menu so well and steered us towards delicious drinks. I had the FH7 which was peach and rosemary. He made recommendations that didn’t lead us to the more expensive option. We opted for the whipped ricotta, meatballs, and beef tartar. I got the manicotti and my boyfriend got the lasagna. On our first date he said his mom’s lasagna was his favorite meal. Last night, he said this lasagna rivaled that one. 10/10 - will come back next time I’m in town!

    Every dish was amazing. The bread service with whipped ricotta, dumplings, eggplant Parmesan, and panna cotta dessert were all unforgettable. Beyond good service and overall experience

    The environment is great, and the service was nice. The food took a little longer than normal and the server had to be reminded a couple times to bring water and bread. He was very nice, but maybe a little overwhelmed. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

    For the most part good food and good service. One issue we had the pasta dishes came with over cooked pasta and we're poorly seasoned (no salt at all it seems). The rest of the dishes were excellent.
