Small plates are outstanding. You can’t miss with any primi or secondi.
Solid! Always a favorite... never disappoints! Food, service, ambiance on point!
We celebrated a birthday. I made a special request for champagne and dessert. Upon arrival and they forgot
Batallion is our Go-to! If you haven’t been, you need to book a reservation!
Great food great service! This place never seems to let me down.
Lights were to dim unable to see menu, needing to use my cell phone light. Music was extremely loud unable to clearly hear waitress and my gust setting next to me.
Amazing waitress named Analisia. The food is delicious. Will definitely visit again.
Great bourbon selection at the bar. Service was great. Menu was so so... appetizer menu could try to appeal to more it seems limited, if you like bread the bread is good. Butter leaf salad was good, the spinach manacotti not that Herat but steak had a great flavor
Enjoyed Birthday dinner with friends here. Always great drinks and food.
Gran lugar con buena comida y excelente servicio y atención
We had an excellent experience at battalion!
Our waiter, Jeremy, was positively fantastic! He was attentive, explained the menu well, gave us a history on the restaurant which was wonderful & he even shared with us other restaurants to try!
The food was phenomenal! The eggplant Parmesan did not disappoint and it was one of the best I have ever eaten!
The spinach dumplings were also very good though I don’t know if I would order that again as there are so many other choices to try at our next visit.
The tiramisu was decadent & Delicious!
The only thing that I was disappointed about was that the pour on the Chardonnay was about 4 ounces for $14.
I recognize that alcohol is the bread-and-butter of the restaurant but this was being very, very skimpy for a glass of wine. They are creative as they choose wine glasses that are very small and they are beautiful but… If you’re going to pour only 4 ounces than you need to reduce the charge to about seven or eight dollars and to me that would be fair.
Loved our experience at Battalion!
Every dish was exceptional!
Great food, excellent service!
Great atmosphere and good food. Music selection didn't fit mood of restaurant. Stay away from doors when weather is cold. Too much liquid smoke on charred green beans. Entrees were fantastic and server was outstanding, answering all questions about fire station's history. Will definitely return.
Excellent quality, generous portions, good value.
Will be back!
Food arrived shortly. Excellent service. Good wine list and cocktails.
The food was absolutely wonderful!! Everything we had was amazing! The restaurant itself is gorgeous and has a wonderful ambiance.
Excellent service and food!!!
Do not recommend octopus as portion was tiny. Steak was over seasoned and salty.
Went here to celebrate a friend’s birthday and came away very disappointed. It’s very unfortunate especially when we don’t get out much these days.
Who charges an up charge for a prix fixe menu? Battalion does and was definitely NOT worth the up charge. Pasta is charged separately, nothing was remarkable about the food here.
I just love this place! The meatball appetizer is delish and chicken parm even better. Everything is fabulous. The ambiance is wonderful. Battalion is my happy place for Italian goodness.
We had an early dinner on the patio. It was perfect - excellent food and service.
Everything was incredible
Free Veterans appreciation dinner
We love this place and the service is always GREAT!
Always a great experience overall!
Appreciate the menu special for Veterans and Active Members of the military. Nice environment. Food wasn't as good expected for the normal posted prices. However, with the menu selection for the special event may have been the reasoning.
Delicious and wonderful service! Also lovely wine selections
The music was too loud. All the concrete and metal don't help the noise level either.
It had been a year since I last dined at Battalion. Restaurant Week menu was excellent. Pasta was some of the best I've ever eaten, and the veal marsala was innovative, rich and delicious.
However, our table was so dark neither of us could read the lightly printed tiny font wine menu, and the waiter could supply neither candle nor flashlight.
Absolute best dining experience of the year. Food was creative and delicious. Service was attentive and knowledgeable. Battalion is San Antonio gem and a destination for both the casual and savvy diner alike.
We were greeted right away and taken to our seats. The flow of ordering our drinks and food was smooth. The timeout for our drinks were slower but the way our food came out from appetizers, to our main course, to our desserts were perfect. Nothing was left to go.
Only wished that our server informed us that when ordering the ny strip no sides were provided that it it’s optional to order a side from the dinner menu
.
This might be my new favorite! We went for the Restaurant Menu and everything was delicious. We'll be back soon.
Third time to eat there. Great food and environment
The ambiance is great! The food was ok, we ordered the cache de peppe and it was lacking cheese and flavor. The noodle selection for that dish is not delicate and is more for a ragu style dish. The salad was great. The cocktails great. The focaccia was lacking flavor, but the butter served with it was great.
We sat outside and enjoyed wonderful service and delicious, well-prepared food. It was a lovely experience.
We got there when it opened but it took them a very long time to get the food out. It was expensive and didn’t taste like something unique. The building is very interesting and that’s what attracted us to it initially.
I have always had amazing food here! It was very disappointing to spend over $100 for my teenage son and I (had the Culinaria menu)& have the food that was presented. Besides poor presentation, the steak was stringy and barely edible. The waitress kept trying to get the bill paid, but I was finished with my meal. I was so looking forward to a nice eve out which I haven’t had in many months. It was such a let down😐
What a beautiful restaurant! The food was excellent and filling without being heavy. We were rambunctious but our server was awesome. Thank you so much!!
