Vanderpump Rules, the hit reality show on Bravo! lead by Vanderpump matriarch and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills diva Lisa Vanderpump, has taken over the restaurant and bar scene is Los Angeles. Lisa Vanderpump is a longtime restauranteur who even before fame was changing the game in the glam restaurant experience. After rising to fame as arguably the best housewife there is, Lisa opened her business to the cameras and launched what has become a force to be reckoned with in the name of celebrity restaurants in Los Angeles.
These are the establishments keeping Jax, Stassi, the Tom’s, and all the other hoodlums employed, including a couple of personal indulgences for the Princess herself.
Lisa Vanderpump Restaurants
Vanderpump Cocktail Garden at Caesars Palace
Villa Blanca Restaurant (Closed)
Vanderpump à Paris
In April 2022, Lisa launched a new restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada. The new eatery, called Vanderpump à Paris, is a Paris-inspired cocktail lounge and restaurant with some seriously cool old gothic vibes!
The interior, designed by both Vanderpump and designer, Nick Alain, is meant to transport visitors to a French courtyard setting upon entering. Unsurprisingly, the establishment is also decked out in furnishings from the Vanderpump Alain collection!
Vanderpump à Paris is not the first restaurant Vanderpump has opened in the the city of sin – she also has a second successful business, known as Vanderpump Cocktail Garden at Caesars Palace which, which opened in March 2019!
Vanderpump Cocktail Garden at Caesars Palace
Vanderpump Cocktail Garden features not only a stellar (hand-crafted) cocktail menu, but also features a variety of upscale dining options during your visit. Oh, and if you prefer wine, Vanderpump has her own brand of Rose that’s also available for your drinking pleasure at the Cocktail Garden!
Much like all of Lisa’s other restaurants, Vanderpump Cocktail Garden has a unique style that really brings the WOW factor.
When speaking to the Las Vegas Review-Journal about her luxury lounge, Lisa said “We have created a unique, decadent space with a majestic feel where guests can relax in a sexy garden oasis, from the design and ambiance, to the selection of light bites and cocktails, I am proud of what we created and hope everyone will enjoy the experience as much as we do!”
SUR LOUNGE
SUR Lounge is the home of Vanderpump Rules and all its drama. This Lisa Vanderpump-designed restaurant and lounge serves South-European cuisine in a candle-lit setting on the prestigious corner of Melrose and Robertson in the heart of West Hollywood.
Split into two separate sections, the colorfully-lit SUR Lounge on one side serving up the drinks made famous by the Vanderpump Rules cast and high-end SUR Restaurant on the other with a distinct royal glam vibe.
The cast doesn’t ‘work’ there unless the cameras are rolling, but if you’re lucky, you may catch them filming an episode during your visit!
SUR Lounge Address
PUMP LOUNGE
PUMP Lounge is a masterpiece of Lisa Vanderpump’s imagination located on world-famous Santa Monica Boulevard, just a couple blocks north of SUR. The Tuscany-inspired, old-world decor gives a magical vibe to a hip, thriving restaurant.
The century-old olive trees bring the décor together and are lit by candle-filled lanterns throughout the lounge. From a Parisian bridge to a stone fountain, PUMP may not be the home of Vanderpump Rules, but it’s no step-child in the eyes of Lisa.
She pulled no punches when designing this place. With menu options ranging from traditional Italian to the famous Vanderpump Burger, and a ton of cocktails created by Vanderpump herself, PUMP is a must visit for anyone looking for celebrity restaurants in Los Angeles!
VILLA BLANCA RESTAURANT (Closed)
Serving Gourmet Mediterranean cuisine in a chic, romantic setting with Lisa Vanderpumps signature look: gaudy glam. Villa Blanca was located in the heart of Beverly Hills just a block from Rodeo Drive and was the perfect spot for tourists strolling these quaint streets looking for a bite to eat.
This Vanderpump establishment targeted a much more sophisticated clientele, in my opinion. The food was divine, the décor was refined, and the location was unmatched. It’s said that Lisa herself spent a lot of time, more than at SUR or PUMP, here at Villa Blanca.
In 2020, at a time when many restaurants were struggling to stay afloat, Lisa announced that her most iconic eatery would be closed for good.
LISA VANDERPUMP’S HOUSE “VILLA ROSA”
Thanks to all these places and Lisa’s hard work keeping us entertained on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she was able to afford this custom built, 8,801 square foot mansion perched atop the Hollywood Hills for nearly $11.9 million. Known as “Villa Rosa,” Lisa and her husband Ken commissioned this property in 2011. Villa Rosa Address (aka Lisa Vanderpump’s House Address).
Down a long private & gated drive lies a triumph to contemporary architecture in a prime Beverly Hills location. This highly published estate, designed by Abramson Teiger, boasts 5-bedrooms, 8-bathrooms, and grand oversized steel windows at the entry, capturing unobstructed canyon views. The magnificent estate also features the finest materials with no expense spared.
Details include a two-story library with French polished ebony wood, reverse painted glass, walnut floors, exterior York Stone imported from England & hand-troweled plaster. The graceful open plan incorporates a massive great room with gourmet top-of-the-line chef’s kitchen, media room, and luxurious spa-like master suite with his & her baths.
Surrounded by mature oak trees enhancing natural privacy, the impeccably manicured two-acre grounds create a tranquil setting perfectly designed for outdoor living. Water elements, large swimming pool, and exterior guest house are all cohesively designed for a luxurious experience.
Before you knock her for being “just a silly housewife,” keep in mind that Lisa and her husband Ken were mega-successful restauranteurs long before housewife fame. She’s no ditz, she’s the real deal. So, in case you’ve been living under a rock and didn’t realize the empire Lisa Vanderpump has built, now you know where to go to experience it for yourself!
