Levels reward consistent, useful reviewing — not volume.
You start at Level 1. Levels rise with verified reviews and the helpful votes other diners give them. A short burst of low-effort reviews won't move you; a year of useful ones will.
Write verified reviews, vote dishes, save and follow restaurants.
Your reviews are weighted normally in scores and you unlock the dish-nomination flame.
Early access to new features and invitations to tasting panels.
Your profile gets a Critic badge. Restaurants can't see your reviews any earlier or later than anyone else's — trust never buys influence, in either direction.
