Tottie's Asian Fusion, Scottsdale, Arizona Restaurant Details

Food:

I love the quality and variety of food at Tottie's. Whether in the mood for Thai, Vietnamese or Chinese food they never disappoint. One of my go-to takeout spots.

A Good Asian Fall Back

I've had inconsistent experiences with Totties over the years, so this is not generally my "go to" destination to dine.

I have discovered, as have some of my friends, that this is a better dine-in destination than a take-out choice. The items I've ordered and consumed in-store have been of higher quality than those taken out. To give Tottie's credit, It may just be that the items I've ordered for take-out are not well suited for that.

I addition, when I dine there with small groups of friends, I have never had the experience of everyone at the table being pleased with their food. Each time at least one person has had a food preparation issue.

Service is variable, largely depending on how busy they are. In generally, staff is polite and attentive. If you are seated in a section with no one else about, it can be difficult to get anyone's attention. I'm ok with getting up and finding someone though.

The menu is extensive and varied to suit different tastes. Preparation, however, became inconsistent when Totties #2 opened awhile back. I no longer order the soft shell crab because even when I've requested to be sure it isn't overcooked, it has been overcooked more often than not. The Egg Foo Yong was an initial favorite of mine, but it sometimes arrives literally soaked with oil.

I enjoy their Hot & Sour Soup and Tom Yum, but didn't care much for the Pho. I enjoy their Fresh Spring Rolls and Shoji Noodles. The beef in the Shoji Noodles was delicious and there were generous portions of both the beef and the broccoli.

I have had challenges with the spice (heat) levels not matching my request. This is fine when it comes out too mild since I can enhance it, but if it arrives too spicy that's another story.

Originally, I ordered Sushi as often as not, but the Sushi Menu isn't available until after 5:00. I very often am ready to eat earlier than that, or am looking for lunch.

This is not a bad place, it just seldom completely hits the mark for me and I generally consider other options first. I have also dined at Tottie's 2 with friends, and we had a better experience there.

Food:

Great food. Great crew. The best. Enough said.

Food:

I wish I would've taken a picture of my meal, it was presented so nicely and looked so fresh! I got the seafood noodle soup to go (GREAT for hangovers, FYI!) along with veggie spring rolls. The soup needed some assembly with the broth separate from the other ingredients, which I kind of liked. The rolls were placed in a nice arrangement in the to-go container with garnishes and plenty of peanut sauce. I appreciated the extra effort in making my take out look nice, I feel it shows they take pride in what they are doing there. Everything tasted great including on day 2 as leftovers, and the guy who took and presented my order was super friendly. I will definitely go back, would love to try some of the curries.

Food:

Good food and sushi. A lot of options. Slow service but they were busy so it happens
