Restaurant Levi

My wife and I went for the 750 DKK omakase and really enjoyed it - great food and attentive service throughout. Unfortunately, the experience soured a bit at the end when it came time to pay. The waiter handed us the card terminal and prompted us to add a tip. Nothing kills a good evening faster than being asked for one - so, no tip, and a lower rating than they could have earned otherwise.

A couple weeks ago was the first time I visited Copenhagen. When people told me that Copenhagen is a great food city, I was excited. The first night we ate at Restaurant Barr, which we had very high expectations for. It was a good meal, but did not wow us at all. Our second night we ate at Restaurant Levi, which I had seen on a couple of YouTube videos. We also had high expectations, and our expectations were exceeded. It was an excellent meal from start to finish. Our friendly and warm waiter, Julius, definitely contributed to our enjoyment of the meal. He was very attentive and gave little suggestions that were all very good. Every thing we ate at Levi was delicious. That’s what impressed me, there wasn’t a boring bite the whole meal. Each dish was truly enjoyable. Lardo toast + caviar - hard to go wrong with these ingredients. Rice cake + Mazara Prawns - I had never had this type of shrimp before. It was sweet, soft, and full of flavor. Bao Buns + Wagyu + Salsa Verde - These reminded me of the Siopao I ate as a child. The dough was so fluffy and the filling had a sweet soy asian flavor. Monkfish Cheeks + XO Emulsion - the best fried fish I have ever eaten. Perfectly crisp on the outside, and a delicious fatty fish on the inside. Wagyu Striploin + Arancino + Wasabi - the star of the show. Sadly, I shared this with my husband. Looking back, we should have ordered two so we didn’t have to share. A perfect arancino, nice and crispy, and not at all greasy, covered with a thin slice of delicious wagyu. I loved the creativity of this dish. It really was the best mash up of Italian+Japanese cuisine I could ever imagine. Maccheroni + Rabbit Ragout + Crusco Pepper - very good The special of the day was a pasta dish with truffles on top. I think the sauce was pretty simple, but it was delicious. The texture and taste of the pasta was perfect and brought me back to our trip to Italy a few years ago. Dessert was the pistachio ice cream, which Julius promised was the best pistachio ice cream out there. And he was right. I loved how creamy it was, and the temperature was perfect. It wasn’t ice cold. When you took a bite, you could really enjoy and taste the flavor, instead of just feeling the coldness that you normally feel when eating ice cream. I’m so glad we dined at Levi. It was truly the best meal of our trip (and we went to London and Paris!). Thanks to Julius, the rest of the staff, and the excellent chefs for an unforgettable evening. I predict they will get at least one Michelin star in the future. They definitely deserve it.

Levi is Copenhagens best non Michelin starred restaurant and honestly, based on the food it’s superior to several 1 star restaurants in the city and abroad. Combine that with elite serve from 8 sommeliers, great cocktails, a beautiful ambiance and great acoustics makes it a must visit in the city. Slightly on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for with quality ingredients cooked on point. Get the sashimi, Wagyu arancini, as many pastas as you can and the pistachio icecream which is the worlds best.

Delicious food and friendly service. It's nice that they have sake and the Hokkaido cocktail was amazing. The portions were a little too small though.

We saw this recommended by a local gourmet who makes honest reviews and decided to give it a try. We went for a la carte and composed the meal with a number of starters to share and a main. The Wagyu with Arancino is simply fantastic, fighting for 1st place with the Rice cakes and Mazara prawns. So good that we decided to book again fir lunch the next day. Prices are reasonable for the quality of the food in my opinion. Service was very friendly and attentive, with a fast pace as we like it. A great experience.

Very nice restaurant with excellent food that is interestingly Asian-Italian themed. Great and extensive wine menu. Super attentive and friendly staff and service. Try several small dishes for sharing, it’s worth it. I felt very much taken care of.

What a pleasant surprise! We visited Levi's for lunch as we were intrigued by the Japanese Italian fusion concept. Restaurant is very nicely decorated and staff were very welcoming. Drinks were incredibly tasty, and the dishes albeit small (which you are informed by the waiters) are incredibly tasty and brought out in a timely fashion. The gyoza and wagyu striploin were addictive and the pasta was rich yet balanced. Would strongly recommend!

Review: I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The attention and service were absolutely top-notch—friendly, attentive, and professional. The wine selection was excellent, offering a variety of great options to complement the meal. The small dishes were simply delicious, each one beautifully presented and packed with flavor. It’s clear the kitchen team puts a lot of thought and care into their creations. The only minor drawback was that the music was a bit too loud at times, making it slightly difficult to have a relaxed conversation. However, it didn’t take away from the overall fantastic dining experience. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food, excellent service, and a cozy yet vibrant atmosphere!
