Aska

Aska is a moody, atmospheric sanctuary for Nordic fine dining in Williamsburg, where every course feels like a walk through a Scandinavian forest at dusk. Chef Fredrik Berselius crafts an intricate tasting menu that’s rooted in nature—think smoked ingredients, preserved herbs, and wild flavors you won’t find anywhere else in the city. With only ten tables and a chef’s counter, the experience is intimate and almost meditative, amplified by the minimalist design and candlelit glow. Each dish arrives like a whisper of the wild—delicate, deliberate, and quietly stunning. Aska isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a place to slow down, savor, and be transported.
