Aska

$$$$ · Scandinavian, Contemporary
Two Stars: Excellent cooking
Aska remains one of New York’s most distinctive dining experiences. Hidden inside a dark, intimate space in South Williamsburg, Chef Fredrik Berselius draws on his Swedish heritage and the ingredients of the Northeastern United States to create a highly personal tasting menu. The room is centered around an open kitchen, where a small team prepares a procession of dishes rooted in preservation, foraging, smoke and seasonality. Shellfish, wild herbs, berries and carefully sourced seafood appear throughout the meal, reflecting a Nordic sensibility without feeling dogmatic. Highlights often include pristine langoustine, beautifully prepared fish and inventive desserts that balance dairy, flowers and fruit. Thoughtful service and a singular point of view continue to make Aska one of the city’s most compelling destinations.
