    Unsweet tea (you keep the cup), chicken farro bowl and the Greek style dressing. Very delicious!

    Got the chicken farro bowl and it was very filling, delicious, and a very large portion that I could eat for 2 meals. Their dressing was divine. Service was excellent and place had seating inside and outside. Was clean and high traffic which is usually hard to maintain. Would def return to try more items on the menu.

    One of the best restaurants in Oxford without a doubt. The food is amazing, the humus is the best I've ever had, and everything tastes extremely fresh. I've had more than double digit meals here and I have never been disappointed. The only downside of this place and why I reluctantly am forced to give it 4 stars is due to the pride/trans flag hanging up, just unfortunate. Mental illness shouldn't be encouraged in my eyes, but the food is spectacular.

    Volta is a good spot for great frozen drinks and Greek food. I've come to Volta a few times and have always had a positive experience. My last visit was over Double Decker weekend at the end of April. Oxford locals can tell you it's a busy weekend - Volta managed to have us seated within a reasonable amount of time despite the crowd. Service has always been consistently decent. Nothing to write home about, but nothing negative either. Their food selection isn't too expansive, but what they have is delicious. This past visit I had the walnut and goat cheese salad. It was the perfect size! My friend and I shared the pita melt as an appetizer. The melted cheese was divine. If there is one thing about Volta that stands out it's the frozen mojito. I definitely recommend if you're looking for a delicious and refreshing drink!

    Service here was friendly, the outdoor seating area is relaxing. The Hot Toddy bars are unique and something I do recommend but I wish they offered a 1/2 size as the price is higher although the serving size is generous.

    Half price margaritas in July!

    Margaritas were stout and delicious. Falafel was moist . The sauces with the souvlaki (pork) were sooooo good. Nice warmed bread.
