Voltaire sits on Genessee Street in the West Bottoms, part of the Moxie Industries group alongside sister restaurants Golden Ox, Ox Cafe, and Lemonade Park. The kitchen works from a globally inspired, seasonally shifting menu, paired with an eclectic wine list and a cocktail program spanning classic and contemporary drinks.
Mussels and oysters are the dishes regulars mention first. The room leans into a hipster, art-forward atmosphere and doubles as a neighborhood gathering spot, helped along by a stage that hosts live jazz on Thursday nights. Service draws consistent praise from guests as one of the operation's strengths, even as execution and timing can vary.
