Looking for a St. Louis area restaurant? Post-Dispatch restaurant critic Ian Froeb picks 100 essential spots for 2024.
St. Louis' best new restaurants for 2023 range from a supper club in the Central West End and sushi on the hill to Nigerian cuisine, Indian fare and gas-station barbecue.
One bite at Levels Nigerian Cuisine (1405 Washington Avenue, levelsstl.com) and you'll realize that you've ventured into new territory — in the best possible way. The dishes are powerfully flavorful, some hurtling right to the edge of most people's heat tolerance, or serving as a perfect complement to that, such as sweet plantains or fufu, a pounded yam used to soak up sauce. Either way, no one else in St. Louis is doing anything like it.
There is simply nowhere else like Levels in the St. Louis area
Levels, which debuted in July in downtown west, is one of the year’s most exciting and most important new restaurants.
