Chef Fredrik Berselius brings his love of nature to his urban surroundings through food at Brooklyn's only two Michelin-starred restaurant. With an emphasis on ingredients from the Northeastern region and influenced by his Scandinavian homeland, Aska, Swedish for "ashes," offers a distinctive dining experience through a procession of courses prepared from an open kitchen and served to guests of only ten tables each night.

From the OpenTable editors: Fredrik Berselius's legendary Scandinavian restaurant has nearly every accolade imaginable – two MICHELIN Stars, a three-star New York Times review, and four stars from Eater. Far from resting on its laurels, the Williamsburg tasting-menu destination continues to showcase the best of New York and Northeast food with a boundary-pushing Nordic lens.

    The Michelin experience was phenomenal. The service was outstanding and the food was beautifully presented. There were too many exotic fish dishes for me, but my husband was more than happy to finish them for me. It's very expensive but worth the experience at least once.

    Best dining experience in New York. Bar none. If you haven't been, make it a point to get there. The fact it hasn't received the Michelin 3 star designation is inexplicable.

    Every single course was truly remarkable and clearly a labor of love of flavors, techniques, creativity and foraging. The staff were highly professional and the ambience spotlit the amazing dishes. I cannot wait to go back. This was simply dining at its finest.
