One theory I have is that you're getting different rating for different experience. Some "Asian" food keeps well, so it could stand out from the competition. They don't have to deal with you being in the restaurant, complaining about the smell, the service, they hit on the waitress and she wasn't very friendly responding, ect.
You're correct. This is a problem with ratings. You really have to read into them to see what they're complaining about or praising. This is true even for individual reviews, written solo. Many are unhelpful, or stuff that doesn't concern you.
One of the best examples I can remember is a venue that had 2-3 stars. However, all the negative reviews were like: "They have massive parties going hard late into the night... but my kids go to bed at 9:30, so 1 star".
