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.

    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.

    Great dining experience. We chose to eat outside. The noise level inside is loud.

    Battalion donated to the nonprofit I work at that supports Veterans. I brought my family to dine in to give back to them for their generosity and it was amazing! I will definitely be dining here again in the future, my whole family loved it. Thank you Battalion!

    A superb restaurant in a city full of great restaurants. Avant garde decor, friendly and welcoming staff. The food is the star hands down. Appetizer to desert, vegan to carnivore there is not a mediocre on the menu. Multiple choices of handmade pasta paired with artfully prepared sauces. Delicious sides to complete your meal are in legion. Battalion is by far a stand alone eatery without blemish.
