   Service was lackluster (slow, forgot a few items, inattentive and generally unwelcoming). All of the food tasted great, but the value just isn't there for what you get (whether from the restaurant week menu or the regular menu).

   Spinach dumplings were a real disappointment. They were great the first time I had them months ago. Now they were cut cubes instead of hand rolled dumplings. Bread I can get at central market for $7 is silly. Lamb was great. Raviolli was good. Just not the lovely experience from my first visit in the early days . Too much attitude at the front door that feels more judgemental that welcoming.

   Great food, great service, way too loud "music?". It's good we came early because by the time we finished dinner at 6:20PM, someone had turned up the screaming, er, music to above the threshold of pain. Conversation became difficult/impossible. We'd come here more often if it was a little quieter, or if they played more relaxing music. I realize that the building's construction causes the sound to become overwhelming, so playing music a little more relaxing would help. Or maybe they just need a special "seniors night" where the sound is less overwhelming and diners can count on a relaxing meal with good conversation.

   Wow, our food was delicious starting with the Primi, in which my wife had the Watermelon Salad and I had the Three Cheese Beef and Pork Meatballs. For our main entree, she had the Chicken Parmesan and I had the Eggplant Parmesan and they were both very flavorful. Now for dessert, we had cannoli and tiramisu. Our server Katie did an outstanding job with her wine recommendations that complimented our entrees and she was attentive but not overbearing. Thanks, Katie

   Participated in Restaurant Week, and the overall experience was average. A bit disappointed that some of the entrees & sides' spice levels overwhelmed the flavor of the food. Perhaps chefs in the back had an off evening. Beautiful atmosphere despite the upstairs being rather warm.

    The cuisine offered was spectacular with an array of options to tantalize your palate from the pasta dishes to the Chicken Parmigiana was some of the best ever. The ambience was unique and inviting. I highly recommend Battalion, if looking for great food and with wonderful atmosphere this is the place!

    Remember in the movie Ratatouille when the food critic eats the food at the end and it tastes so amazing that he is transported back yo his childhood? That's what I wanted from this meal. I did not get it. The building is nice and looks very fancy. The service was just ok. We had a reservation but still had to wait to be seated and no, it wasn't full. There were many free tables available. We got there at the same time as another couple who did not have a reservation and they were seated first and we were told that they had to figure out where to seat us. Since it was our first time at Battalion the waiter recommended getting many dishes so we could share and said that the idea is family style. We got the spinach dumplings, the meatballs, the Bombay. Each was 14$. We also got lamb chops which was 38$. For the price, the servings were so small. The dumplings were the best thing but I would recommend getting one plate per person because the servings were so small. The meatballs were good but were gone before you know it and the waiter said the Bombay pasta would be spicy but instead was flavorless. We were disappointed at the size of everything but expected the lamb chops to be more. Instead, we got 4 tiny lamb chops. I wouldn't mind if the food was a flavor explosion. Sadly, it was not. It was forgettable and we won't be back.

    While the place is very nice it’s also very noisy. It’s hard to have a conversation with people at the table without speaking loudly. The server was great and on top of the table. Food was mediocre the steak was over cooked and the food wasn’t hot. The halibut and the sweet potatoes were probably the best dishes my table got last night.

    Overall a B/B+ - for San Antonio Italian it’s pretty good and we’d come back if others in our group really wanted to, but not anything like what you’d get in NYC, Chicago, LA, San Francisco, etc. Appetizers OK, salads quite good, pastas -eh - we had three: Spinach Dumplings (taste good but dry), Strozzapretti with Mushroom sauce done very well, but Spaghetti alla Gricia, the simplest and should be easiest, had a poorly executed sauce not incorporating Pecorino to form a “cream.” Very small amount of some meat that should have been lardons or cubed guanciale, but I suspect pancetta was used - needed a lot more care and better technique. If you are expecting high quality Italian and are used to it, not really up to expectations. Exec chef needs some training.

    I really love this place. Service is always impeccable, including great recommendations for wines that suit the meal. I love the concept of 'Italian tapas' because I can try so many different dishes without having to pick just one large dish. The food is always incredible; there is a lot of variety in the dishes (i.e. not just all pasta and red sauce) which I think is great. Portions are perfectly sized, and they have a tiramisu that is to die for. Highly recommend.

    Food was OK, but did not justify the high price. Pasta was very good. My herb-crusted lamb chops were very over cooked and tasted like Shake and Bake. Complimentary bread service would have been nice, given the high prices. Very unlikely that we will return.

    f I could give a 0 I would. From the moment I walked in to the sever Nicole, disappointed from the start. The hostesses were rude and every server was so angry and rude. Sad thing is the food was fabulous. I would never come back because of the service. I made reservations in advance and planned a fun weekend with my sister and her friends. I had heard so many great things. Again the food was great but you need to do better in service. Great Chef! Hopefully the service can live up to the food.

    Quick walk from hemisfair park! Floor two views were my favorite. The restaurant is located in an old historic fire station, so it really has character! I loved it. Food and service were great I’m looking forward to trying every menu item!! Definitely try the meatball, it’s a fun square take on the Italian classic. Overall menu vibe is eccentric as well as classic Italian offerings. A unique must visit San Antonio spot.

    Seated outside. Bees started swarming and stung child in our party. I understand this is a possibility, being outside. They did move us inside, but no concern for the child. An offer of an ice pack would have been nice, or even asking if she was ok

    I went off of the good reviews however the food was not good! I’m so surprised by the reviews! Terrible! The spinach dumplings are not dumplings at all. They are very dry and were basically packed into an ice cube tray to get the shape. Blah. The pasta I could have made better myself at home. Bland!! No flavor at all. The lamb…sub par. Too pricey for what you are served. We were in from out of town and was hoping this would have been a good pick off of the beaten path. While the building was really neat, the food was a 2/10.

    Heard about Battalion from a friend. Me and my wife moved down here from Chicago where we had a variety of great food options. But we were glad we can to Battalion, we loved the food it was delicious. And the restaurant was very trendy , and the service was amazing. We will definitely be back.
