What people say, in short
Sei Vui in Central Kolkata is a frequent commenter pick for Chinese food, with many naming it among the city's best, though two commenters dispute that reputation. Diners single out pork dishes like the mala pork and chilli pork, along with the wontons and nasi goreng, and a couple of commenters call it very good. The caveats are real: a few feel the taste is slightly lacking or has declined over time, two diners found the wonton too salty, and another reports rude service and a delayed bill.
