Our recent visit to Levels Nigerian Restaurant was nothing short of refreshing—especially as part of a birthday celebration. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed like family. The staff was incredibly accommodating and engaging throughout the evening, making the night truly memorable.
We had the pleasure of enjoying authentic Nigerian cuisine for the first time, and every bite left us wanting more. We’re already planning to return—and bringing all our friends and family with us! The drinks were top notch, with the perfect Lagos flair.
And just when we thought the night couldn’t get any better, the restaurant transformed into a vibrant nightclub. It was the perfect surprise ending. Levels truly lives up to its name—a level of its own.

I had the most amazing experience at Levels! The food was absolutely delicious — rich, flavorful, and authentic. The vibes and scenery were stunning, creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing evening.
I went on a solo date, but it didn’t feel “solo” at all the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and comfortable. Their warmth and attentiveness truly made my night. I left not just full, but genuinely happy. Can’t wait to go back!!

Ok so this has become one of my favorite spots in the Lou! First of all the service was excellent. We came here on our anniversary and were were treated like family!!! The owner and his brother are awesome guys. He gave us some freebies for us celebrating our special occasion with them. Secondly the food was fantastic! Everything was pipe and hot and the quality of the food was superb. The jollof rice, suya burger, jerk chicken, plantains and the greens was sooooo goooood. The drinks were awesome and the atmosphere was very pleasant. I'll definitely be back! One of the best experiences in St Louis hands down!!!!

My third time visiting this restaurant was exceptional. The staff is incredibly attentive and kind. The food was delicious with huge servings. Also, the ambiance was great with a good musical selection that was not too loud. I'll be sure to return!

Our server Aunyea was amazing, food and drinks were great, and the manager (Uval?) was so sweet. We had a great time!

We went here for my boyfriend’s birthday and it was excellent! The atmosphere is great, there’s tv/sports for those who want to watch a game while they get a drink or eat dinner, and I loved the aesthetic/decor.
Our waiter, Ali, was fantastic and gave us great recommendations. My boyfriend got the Egusi and fufu with chicken and I got the party jollof plate (jollof rice, plantains, sautéed greens, stewed beef). We both really enjoyed our choices and I definitely had some of my boyfriend’s meal. We got drinks, too, and they were also very nice!
There is art upstairs and we were given a tour of the gallery after dinner. They have space for local artists and I loved the entire experience.

I ordered multiple dishes to explore the menu and had both beef and goat it was my first time trying African cuisine, and I was pleasantly surprised by the bold, unique flavors.
One standout was the yuca paired with egusi soup the balance between the two was excellent and really showcased the richness of the cuisine. I also appreciated that they provided a basin for hand washing, which added to the authenticity and comfort of the experience.
The staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, offering great recommendations and patiently explaining the dishes. I even had the chance to meet the owner, who was very friendly and accommodating, even offering to make adjustments based on my preferences.
My only concern was that the meat was a bit on the tough side, making it harder to chew. That said, it might just be part of the traditional preparation, and I’m simply not used to that texture.
Overall, I highly recommend this place a great introduction to African cuisine with flavorful dishes and warm, welcoming service.

Food was good what they had available, but was out of everything. Waitress charged 18% gratuity for party of 2, scratched out party of 8 or more... And put 2 for a charge of 18% ...sad and pitiful
I was trying to support a local black business on my birthday. Apon arrival there were 2 small groups of people waiting to be seated, the restaurant was empty so I'm not sure why everyone was waiting. The hostess seated the other 2 groups while my friends and I waited. We waited for about 15min when the hostess informed us that she was waiting on the chef to clean silverware and then we will be seated. Meanwhile the restaurant has plenty of open tables. She instead gives us the menu to look at while we wait then proceeds to tell us they will not be serving drinks because they still do not have their liquor license. She then tells us there is a bar down the street we can go to if we want to drink. I told her I think we will dine somewhere else because I wanted a drink with my meal and she said "Ok" so fast as if she was glad to not have to serve us. We did not feel welcomed at all and it was very disappointing. They're customer service needs help.

Food is great but I don’t recommend eating there. The waitresses are so rude it’ll ruin your appetite. Like I’m sorry I came here to pay you, my mistake...no need to be so angry about it.

Wonderful ?..still will like to try the duck wontons there always sold out..

This was my first time at the restaurant and the experience wasn’t great . They have no liquor so if you want a drink with ur meal that is out of the question . It was only one waitress serving the entire restaurant it was multiple people leaving out upset because of the bad service and the wait time . The reason I gave a two star rating is because of their pasta it was definitely amazing
