Again though, I guess youve never eaten in Houston.
I always wanted to go down to Houston and try the viet-cajun. There are a few places around me with it, but it's like BBQ, where you just want to have it where it comes from.

Above Average: DC, Vegas, KC, Nashville, NOLA, Miami, Orlando, St Louis, Phoenix, SF
Average Atlanta, Austin, Cleveland, Orlando, Tampa, San Antonio, Denver
Below Average Indianápolis, Columbus, Jacksonville
Before anyone asks, reason I didn’t put SF at the top is because their ethnic food seems to have taken a hit recently. I’m sure COL has something to do with this.
I'm curious, where did you eat when you were in Columbus? I think it has quite a good restaurant scene for its size. There is a surprisingly good number of Japanese and Somalian restaurants.
Is there any 1.5 million plus metro that has a genuinely bad food scene? I see a lot of people putting Indianapolis in the below-average category but Indianapolis also seems to rank low in every city-data ranking.

Phoenix comes to mind, as most of the good eats are in Scottsdale.

Detroit may also fall into that categoric with the disproportionate wealth/ population being in the suburbs. Though probably less so in last 10 years with the prolific resurgence of downtown/midtown/cork town.

I can see Miami being one of those places. Miami Beach, Aventura, Bal Harbour, Key Biscayne maybe.
