Editorial Review for Dos Gringos – by Kristen Quaranta

In Short
The joint is spacious, with a large patio and two full bars, but it's challenging to move through the festive crowds on weekend nights. Dos Gringos offers a variety of the usual Mexican fare including burritos, quesadillas and nachos, but the place is much better-known for drinks of generous proportions--particularly margaritas.

Used to think Dos was a decent place for late-night eats and cheap beer. Because it used to be. Not anymore. Or maybe it never was. Recently saw a video on YTube of a Dos bouncer pummeling a guest. Search YTube for "scottsdale bar fight". Pretty insane bouncers... Never going back to Dos again.

Pros: none that outweigh psychotic, violent bouncers

Cons: psychotic, violent bouncers

I am glad that finally something maybe done about the problem at Dos Gringos in Scottsdale. The problem is very violent bouncers at Dos. My friends and I have never been assaulted, but I have personally witnessed bouncers trying to start fights. I have seen a bouncer grab a customer and through him up against the wall because he was not walking fast enough when leaving at the end of the night. I have seen them threaten to cause physical harm to customers just because they did not leave the bar right away. I am very surprised that there have not been more cases such as the one on YouTube. The bouncers job is to protect there customers and make them feel safe and this is not happening. When I go to Dos I make sure I go with a big group to protect myself not from customers but from the bouncers. Since, I make sure I am bringing more friends. Most likely there are people who are bringing weapons too. I hope the owner of Dos does something. I enjoy going to many bars in Scottsdale and the bouncers at Devils, Axis, and swade do a great job. They are very nice and treat you right and if someone gets out of hand they take care of it by grabbing the person and throwing them outside. At the end of the night the bouncers will ask you nicely to leave. They don't say that there going to kick your as s and throw you outside if you don't start moving towards the exit! Which has happened to me!
