These all simmer in a heady garlic sauce with a slight sweetness. And every dinner must include naan, the soft tandoor-baked bread. Plain naan is enough of a treat, but there are versions with garlic, cheese, onion and meat stuffings as well. The indecisive may opt for the assorted basket, which contains five naan varieties and enough bread for four. The menu includes a half-dozen traditional desserts.
Service covers the basics and is unobtrusive to a fault.
The exception is Rivzi himself, who patrols the dining room and whose menu suggestions border on insistence. Such unequivocal advice is a boon to those unaccustomed to Indian cuisine. This is the sort of thing that gives restaurants bad reputations, and Rivzi would be wise to rescind this policy immediately. The reviewer makes every effort to remain anonymous. Meals are paid for by the Tribune.
