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.

    Excellent dishes with lovely presentation and a cohesive seafood theme. Wine pairing works amazingly with the dishes. Service was on point and I loved my conversations with the servers and the sommelier!

    Perfect kind of fine dining experience - upscale, not uptight, incredible food, and really impeccable service. It is going to be hard to eat anywhere else for the next several months. We went to celebrate a birthday and engagement anniversary, and they made it very special and very aware that they knew and cared about it !
