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 renovated firehouse is such a great spot! The food was great, the service was good and the decor was very cool. The spinach dumplings were not what I imagined them to be but they were better! And the NY Strip was cooked perfectly. I had the olive oil cake for dessert as did one friend. The other person in our party had the s’mores dessert. Both were delicious.

    Very attentive service by our server Kelly who made us feel welcoming and recommended some great items and wine. Girlfriend and I did the RW menu. All the food items we ordered were delicious which include: spinach dumplings, trenne bombay pasta (first course) NY strip steak (main course) tiramisu, s’mores panna cotta (dessert course) It’s a bit loud inside so we sat outside. While cold, they turned the outside heaters on which are next to the tables for warmth. Had a great experience and look forward to dining here again. Shoutout to Kelly who was an amazing server; the restaurant is lucky to have him!

    Food and service was amazing! Music wasn’t too loud or too low so you’re able to have a conversation.

    Only thing I would say that was a bit underwhelming was their cocktail menu and their sides. But the entrees are shareable and very tasty!

    We went here for a family dinner and had a perfect experience. The food, service and ambiance were all on point. I highly recommend the spinach dumplings, “meatballs” and the Italian salad. Sit on the patio for a very intimate and charming experience
