how popular is southeast asian food in the US? it's very popular in australia (fun fact: out of the world's 15,000 thai restaurants outside of thailand, 3000 are in australia lmao)
extremely common everywhere I’ve lived which is up and down the entire eastern usa. however it is predominantly Vietnamese and Thai restaurants specifically ime. Depends on the area obviously though but for example it would be decently difficult to find Filipino or Indonesian takeout around here
