(Last UPDATED 4/8/21) Description and review of a diverse list of Sacramento ethnic restaurants serving up a wide variety of tasty dishes in Sacramento.
Sacramento has long been recognized as culturally and ethnically diverse – which is one of the things that makes it a great place to live – and to dine.
A recent study by WalletHub – Most & Least Ethnically Diverse Cities in the U.S. – ranks Sacramento #13 in the large city category:
- Ethnic Diversity Score: #66.33
- Ethnoracial Diversity: #4
- Linguistic Diversity: #34
- Birthplace Diversity: #318
While I don’t imagine I will sample every ethnic restaurant in town, I do plan to continue exploring all that Sacramento as to offer. You may want to check back as I plan to expand this list of Sacramento ethnic restaurants over time.
