Here is the context:
Los que lo conocen bien, recomiendan el pulpo de roca y cítricos, la fideuà roja, el lomo de atún de sorra, tomaca y oliva negra, el salmonete con all i pebre y arroz de coliflor o la coca de pera, té ahumado y lima.
Is this a special kind of tuna? I haven't been able to find it in any of the usual places.

You'll find references to "tollina de sorra" or "tonyina de sorra"; this refers to the same part of tuna, but salted. I don't see evidence in your text of it being the salted variety though. :O)
