Foodies flock to Gaku for tastes of heaven. The place is revered for its fresh fish, prepared by two master sushi chefs with a combined 34 years' experience. But it's the page of daily changing specials that thrills: sliced tako and basil in a yuzu-shoyu vinaigrette, deep-fried homemade kurobuta sausage, avocado and seasonal veggies in a chilled dashi jelly and cauliflower foam for dessert. But can you get in? Reservations are taken for seatings between 5 p.m.-7 p.m. After 7, get in line and wait.
