Frederic BonnOctober 31, 2013Incredible tasting menu and an axing culinary experience. Probably one of the best meals I had in a long time. The dining room is a bit bland but the Menu is worth a trip
Tal AtlasApril 19, 2013You can get paired drinks with each course of the tasting menu for an additional $40. It was a little heavy on white wine and the cocktail featured onion oil and was undrinkable. Overall was worth it.
Time Out New YorkApril 11, 2013The New Nordic Wonder award winner's tasting menu turned the forest’s prickly underbelly—all hairy roots, funky fungi & fallen leaves—into some of the most stunning plates of 2013. Read more
DinaApril 24, 2014Terrific food available either as a pre fixe - $76 to 125 depending on days or there is a bar menu which is fantastic and very moderately priced. Clean, complex flavors, a treat.
Wilson ZhouApril 28, 2014Berselius enjoys juxtaposing subtle flavors with rich ones: pig’s trotter shelters under translucent shavings of sunchoke; monkfish and its liver are buried beneath cabbage leaves of various colors.
Josephine SonApril 18, 2013Be prepared for a real sensory experience! Be a little adventurous and just go along with the ride, you will have a great time ! $65 tasting menu is a great deal.
CompassJuly 24, 2013A leading force in the New Nordic food trend, Aska offers an adventurous tasting menu in its seven-table restaurant, complete with a pig’s blood cracker and other delightfully inventive combinations.
Michelin Travel & LifestyleDecember 2, 2013Go for Scandinavian-inflected dishes like oysters in cucumber juice, fried squid with shaved cauliflower, or cold smoked pike. – Green Guide Editor
Jordan OrelliDecember 7, 2012The waiter said "this next course is pretty funky, and we have a funky drink to go with it of you want to try it". Just say yes. For the love of god say yes.
Ben BearnotMay 16, 2013Great beer and wine selection. Seasonal menu is creative delicious and addictive. I will miss this place when I leave NYC
AnnieDecember 24, 2012I'm dying to try the natural energy cocktail with a mixture of ginseng, ginkgo biloba, grapefruit zest, sparkling cider... Oh, and booze.- TrevorJuly 14, 2013Erratic service and tiny portions make it hard to recommend the tasting menu. They also have a super-annoying reservation system.
jessica m. hintermeisterMarch 11, 2013Best Bar Food: think fanciful Scandinavian-style hot dogs wrapped in tacolike rotis w. relish & frizzled onions... :0
Michael CiccaroneDecember 29, 2013Amazingly the squab head was my favorite thing. Don't be squeamish if you get the prix fixe! It's dope.
🌟Alessia🌟January 16, 2013Overrated. Mini-portions. PORK overload :-/mediocre cuts of the pork and fish. fatty & fishy. Plus, be prepared to leave reeking of food. You'll have to wash your hair and clothes ASAP. Go elsewhere
