Chef Joe Anguiano likes to play with his food (appetizers stacked on pipettes, a menu section titled “Hooves”), and the bar program is also in on the joke (the scotch cocktail named Sweat Pants With Uggs, mint juleps on tap). But humor aside, the food and drinks at VOX exhibit a sophistication that’s immediately recognized when items hit the table – adding a few OMGs to our LOLs.
