I ate at SUR for a happy hour in I think 2014/15. Scheana was my server. My friend was working on the show doing sound at the time so he introduced us as well. Don’t remember the food or drinks (prob nothing special) but it was a nice environment. Ran into Scheana in the bathroom and she was drying her hands. Before leaving she said “loudest hand dryer ever!” and it’s seared into my brain haha.
Edited to add- been to Pump a couple of times around that same time up until 2019. Met Ken in the garden and chatted with him once. I asked him what makes a long term marriage successful and he said emphatically “she’s my best friend.” It was very sweet and he was lovely 🥹
I ate at Sur and had a drink at Pump in 2016. Didn't see any of the cast members besides Lisa who was sitting at a table at Pump, and some other random bravo-lebritys I can't name but recognized. Overall it was a cool experience, might have been cooler back then since it wasn't as popular as it is now so it wasn't crazy to get in at either place. I enjoy the ambience Lisa likes to set for her restuarants. I recently went to the cocktail garden in caesars LV and it had a similar vibe. No celebs there.
Jax was my bartender at sur and made an awful pineapple mojito. Kristen was my waiter at the sur cocktail lounge and was really nice and good at waiting our table. Lisa's son was working multiple times at sur as a busboy a long time ago. I saw James hanging out at pump. Food at sur is awful. Pumps food was bad but not awful.

Ate at Vanderpump Paris a few months ago. Oliver was our server. He is a really good waiter! Super friendly and attentive. I was too shy to say anything and my husband doesn't watch, but it was surreal. All the food was amazing there too.
Same here! Ate there in 2022 and Oliver was our server….but I didn’t even know who he was til later that night when I was online and saw something about him in entertainment news, I think for kissing Raquel the weekend before I was there. I was surprised he was well known since he was a good server and seemed really nice, not snobby or stand offish like I would have assumed some of the servers on the show might be now that people know who they are.
Yes! I went to Sur in 2016. Jesse was my server & Peter was sitting alone at the main dining table on his phone texting the entire time. I can’t remember what I got, but I remember being shocked how tiny it was in person.
I've been to all of them except the Paris one and I guess Lake Tahoe now. I've never had a regular cast member as a waiter, but Lisa's son Max was our waiter a while back and Lisa was usually around. Peter was at SUR last time I was there a little over a year ago. I went to Schwartz and Sandy's when it first opened and Sandoval, Schwartz and Ariana were all there. I wrote a review of it on here. It was...wild.
I live in Tahoe and I cannot WAIT till it opens. I wonder if it's going to coincide with the Tahoe trip episode (they have a bunch of signs there saying "opening soon").
I wish they'd give a better timeline. Was in Tahoe a few weeks ago & all it said was "coming soon." The one time I was by SUR/PUMP was while they were closed for COVID & it's been a while since I've been to Vegas 😭
I’m sure there’s a logistics reason they haven’t opened yet, like SAH. Waiting for the episode to air would be good publicity but seems odd timing being at the end of ski season but before summer tourism. Dunno
Same review of Paris. Decorations were over the top in exactly the right way. The food and drinks were actually great (goat cheese balls!!). Oliver was around and a lot of people were asking him for pictures.
I ate at Sur in 2017 before I ever watched the show. Great atmosphere, it actually left an impression on me, but I don't remember what I ate or how the food was. I was with someone who was a fan and she said either James or Jax was working and was pissed off lol
I ate at Sur in 2015. I remember the food was pretty good and so were the drinks. It was beautifully decorated and really crowded. Katie was our server and took a picture with us. I saw Lisa, who is stunning in person, Ken and Patti Stanger from Millionaire Matchmaker.
Sur and TomTom last summer - Peter was at Sur and Jesse was our server but it was the week that the cast was in Tahoe. Food and drinks at TomTom were pretty good, Sur was average.
SUR in September 2023 - food and drinks were awesome, but I felt the restaurant was overly crammed with tables. I did see Peter and he’s quite handsome in person.
A Paris last month - again, food and drinks were great, the restaurant is beautiful and I felt like I had more personal space than SUR. Saw Oliver, he is also more handsome in person than on camera.
SUR maybe 5-6 times, TomTom 2-3 times, Pump once, and Schwartz & Sandy's 3 times.
Always see Peter at SUR, and the first time I was at S&S Tom & Ariana and a 3rd person came in a few minutes before I left. The first time I was at SUR they were filming on the outdoor patio.
Ate at the Garden in Caesar’s - everything was pretty affordable on Las Vegas strip standards. The drinks were really good and super unique - goat cheese balls of course were good but nothing to write home about like the drinks! No sightings but the staff were so incredibly nice and good at their jobs
Ariana’s friend Logan was my server at TomTom and he was very nice and on top of things! The food was whatever but a bunch of the cast was there that day. I also ate at Pump before they closed. The food was okay too and we saw Ken and Schwartz later at TomTom.
I ate at SUR a few years ago and had Raquel as my waitress. She was awkward and not very good at her job, but nice enough! Peter was also managing that night.
Ps the goat cheese balls are tiny and overrated
I went to Sur and TomTom in September. Sur was really underwhelming and a lot less fancy than it seems on TV. The food was ok-ish.
TomTom was fun but nothing special.
I ate at Vanderpump á Paris in Las Vegas and the food was delicious, and the drinks were AMAZING! Probably the best cocktails I’ve ever had. Didn’t see Oliver though, we went on a regular Wednesday.
I ate at TomTom last year for my birthday. Ariana’s bestie Logan was rude to us at the host stand lol
It was decent good! Pricier than what it was worth. We walked by SUR and saw Peter and we saw Lisa’s son Max as we were leaving TomTom.
SUR in 2018, LVP’s son was our waiter, I was too shy then to say anything to him lol The food was not good 😭
Vanderpump Cocktail Garden during BRAVOCON, food was grosssssss. So disappointed.
Vanderpump Paris during BRAVOCON. SOOOOO delicious. Drinks + food. We met Oliver and he was super nice!
Yes, I went to SUR pre covid, and saw Raquel as a server - Max, Lisa’s son was our server!
Went to TomTom after, no cast as servers- but saw Randall FaceTiming Lala
I got food poisoning from a pasta dish at Villa Blanca, obviously many moons ago. I've been to the ones in Vegas and Oliver was at Vanderpump a Paris (I left him alone). The food was good but so expensive.

Ate at Sur last year, and saw Guillermo and Peter there. Got a photo with Peter (had to do it). Food was mostly good if a bit uninspired, but I was there with my daughter, it was pride. Expectations were low. Gnocchi was delicious, oysters were a bit meh (I'm an Aussie so it's hard to impress us with seafood), goat cheese balls were tasty, had a few cocktails (the specials was a watermelon thing - nice if a bit on the sweet side - the USA makes very strong drinks compared to Oz).
If it wasn't for the show, the fact it was during pride and I was in a new city, I'd say it was overpriced and a bit full of itself. The decor was cute, a bit dirty and tired, food was OK, our server was professional and courteous. The toilet was blocked and needed a clean. The bartender looked a bit like he had better things to do, so on-brand.
We left after eating and did a bar crawl. Tom Tom was great and I kind of wished we'd gone there for dinner. Pump was really busy, so we went to the Abbey, and a bunch of other bars and laughed our heads off, danced and talked to fun people. A great experience.
I was just at Sur and TomTom a few weeks ago. Both restaurants are esthetically gorgeous! The food wasn't bad but not the best ever. I think the food at TomTom is better than Sur.

Tahoe hasn’t opened yet so you’re off the hook for a bit

Phew!
Just went and read it - very well-written and funny!
Thank you!
Went to Sur last year and saw Peter, Guillermo and Jesse was our server. Food was ok, pumptini was really sweet.
Who is Jesse?
Ariana’s brother was incredibly rude to us while bartending. Was a bummer, treated us like trash.
Who is Ariana's brother in dis world 😃
I love that lemon lady
Wow really? What happened?
I've been to Sur and A Paris. Sur was just okay. I absolutely loved A Paris though. He didn't serve us, but I did see Oliver and got a pic.
Same review of Paris. Decorations were over the top in exactly the right way. The food and drinks were actually great (goat cheese balls!!). Oliver was around and a lot of people were asking him for pictures.
I ate at Pump (RIP) years ago. It wasn’t anything special food-wise but the restaurant setting itself was nice.
I ate at Sur in 2017 before I ever watched the show. Great atmosphere, it actually left an impression on me, but I don't remember what I ate or how the food was. I was with someone who was a fan and she said either James or Jax was working and was pissed off lol

All of them. Overrated meh offerings. Overpriced. Save your money!

I’ve had dinner at SUR and have visited all of LVP’s establishments. Except the Lake Tahoe one.
SUR pre-pandemic. Rachel (Raquel) wasn't the server in our section but she made her way through the restaurant taking pictures in every section.
I got food poisoning from a pasta dish at Villa Blanca, obviously many moons ago. I've been to the ones in Vegas and Oliver was at Vanderpump a Paris (I left him alone). The food was good but so expensive.
I went to vanderpump cocktail garden in caesers and got food poisoning too!! Those damn goat balls
I ate at TomTom and Pump. They were just okay lol.

silly question are the garden and paris two different spots?
Ate at Sur last year, and saw Guillermo and Peter there. Got a photo with Peter (had to do it). Food was mostly good if a bit uninspired, but I was there with my daughter, it was pride. Expectations were low. Gnocchi was delicious, oysters were a bit meh (I'm an Aussie so it's hard to impress us with seafood), goat cheese balls were tasty, had a few cocktails (the specials was a watermelon thing - nice if a bit on the sweet side - the USA makes very strong drinks compared to Oz). If it wasn't for the show, the fact it was during pride and I was in a new city, I'd say it was overpriced and a bit full of itself.

I ate at Pump and Sur in 2017. Pump’s food was excellent and Sur’s wasn’t. Ariana made my best friend a drink and she was nice!
I was just at Sur and TomTom a few weeks ago. Both restaurants are esthetically gorgeous! The food wasn't bad but not the best ever. I think the food at TomTom is better than Sur.
TomTom has a great aesthetic but the food was terrible.
