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.

Best Quality Daughter houses a vibrant, chic décor and new, unique Asian-American menu. In 2018, chef Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin, wanting to address the sparsity of Asian-American female chefs in South Texas, developed a new concept through a series of pop-up dinners called Best Quality Daughter with fellow chef Anne Ng and artist Jennifer Ling Datchuk. Today Best Quality Daughter is located in the historic Mueller House at the Pearl Brewery. Curated by chef Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin, Best Quality Daughter's menu takes inspiration from her travels and the comfort food of her youth as a second-generation Chinese-American.

    What an amazing Thanksgiving feast! We thought we’d be choosing 1 starter, 1 entree & 2 sides from the Ambler Thanksgiving menu, but know, we were served EVERYTHING ON THE MENU. Our server, Francisco, was extremely attentive & obviously a very professional experienced waiter, we wanted for nothing and thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the great food, ambiance & service!

    The food was so excellent! Super fresh and interesting flavors. The cocktail menu was so creative and fun; it was hard to choose, but I opted for the Nightshades - a spicy Asian gin drink - Yum! We had smashed cucumbers and impossible potstickers for starters and had the Curry Dan Dan noodles and Cashew chicken for entrees. Too much to eat, so got to bring some of both home. Highly recommend. Service was fantastic- Nicky was great. She even took the time to take our picture outside with the mural. Great place; we will be back!
