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.

    We are in San Antonio on vacation. The Battalion was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. The food was excellent and the service was the best. We had the bread with the Herbed Butter and the Whipped Ricotta, the Spinach Dumplings, Spinach Manicotti, and the Chicken Parmesan. I would definitely recommend all of it. Very filling.

    We had a very nice experience at Zocca. Our waiter, Cesar, was very good. The salad “greens” were the best - perfectly seasoned - a real treat. The drinks, while a bit pricey, were good.

    We love Piatti and alternate between SA’s two locations. This visit to the Quarry store was great as usual. Outstanding service from our waiter and the food was excellent. We shared the sourdough ciabatta with oil and basalmic, followed by a Caesar salad and wedding soup. We then shared the spiral zucchini “pasta” dish which is truly exceptional in flavor and presentation. We followed it with the flourless chocolate cake slice with cream. All very nice.
