Masa Toro Tartare with Caviar

Kappo Masa

Upper East Side·$$$$

$98.00

Finely chopped fatty tuna topped with a generous mound of premium caviar.

Tip: It's expensive but it's the benchmark for toro-caviar combinations. Pair it with a glass of dry sake to cut through the intense fat of the tuna.

Tuna Melt

S&P Lunch

Flatiron·$$

$16.50

Creamy tuna salad with melted cheddar on toasted sourdough or rye.

Tip: Get it on the sourdough. The tang of the bread balances the richness of the tuna and cheese perfectly. It's the most reliable order on the menu.

Tuna Crunch Sandwich

Salty Lunch Lady's Little Luncheonette

Ridgewood·$$

$18.00

Creamy tuna salad with celery, red onion, and extra crunchy potato chips.

Tip: The portions are huge. One sandwich is easily enough for two light eaters to share. Pair it with their daily 'Lil Salad' to balance the saltiness.
