Your Guide to Authentic Regional Eats
If sturgeon were the only thing Murray’s sold, this Upper West Side landmark would be worth a visit. Smoked fish this good is a treasure. There is an unbelievable luxury about the way Murray’s sturgeon tastes and feels on the tongue – as rich as fish can possibly be. While it is rightfully known as the specialty of the house, Murray's other kinds of smoked fish are equally notable: velvet-textured salmon either Nova Scotia-style or salt-cured, whitefish, whole chubs, and trout. Among the pickled specialties are three kinds of herring and lox; in addition, there are salads made from whitefish, tuna, and herring.
