    Subject: [Vanderpump Rules] REPORT: ?Business_is_Down? for Ariana Madix & Katie Maloney's SAH Sandwich Shop as Staff Worries of a Potential Closure

    Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney?s sandwich shop, Something About Her, has reportedly taken a ?downward turn? since its opening in May 2024.

    While the Vanderpump Rules alums continue to pay rent in the high-cost area
    of West Hollywood, California, an insider claims that business has ?[plummeted],? resulting in a concerned team, who is allegedly worried that the restaurant could follow in the footsteps of Schwartz & Sandy?s, the
    former bar of Tom Sandoval, 43, and Tom Schwartz, 43.

    ?Business is down exponentially from last year,? a source told The U.S. Sun
    on November 27. ?The restaurant gets about a fraction of the number of people who came last year. It?s hard to say an exact number, but business has taken
    a huge downward turn. It?s so much slower and there hasn?t been a need to staff as many people. So many of the restaurants in this area are closing and staffers are afraid SAH will be next.?

    According to the report, Something About Her had lines for months after it opened, likely the result of Ariana, 40, and Katie, 38, detailing the venture on Pump Rules. But that?s no longer the case. And with rent increasing in the area, it?s no wonder that employees are concerned.

    ?They need more regular customers. One of the problems they face is that a majority of the customer base is tourists who are in town on vacation, come once, and don?t return again,? the insider continued.

    Additionally, Ariana and Katie, who initially made regular appearances at the venue, are ?very rarely, if ever? in the shop these days.

    Still, the insider added, ?the rent is paid,? so Something About Her ?is not going anywhere anytime soon.?

    At the sandwich shop, whose decor was inspired by Nancy Meyers films, patrons can buy sandwiches for between $14 and $18, and drinks, like beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages, including Olipop, for $8. The restaurant also offers baked goods and other sweet treats.

    I guess I should hunt this place down and have a sandwich to report back and review it for RAT before it disappears.

    Always willing to take one for the team.

    Well, there's the problem. The food is wildly overpriced.

    I heard that's pretty normal for the area.

    Is it not the norm for most small businesses, especially food related
    places, to fail within the first few years. Often because the owner
    doesn't have enough cash to get through those first few years of no to
    low income, but that shouldn't be the case here.

    So why is business down over all? If many restaurants in the area is
    closing down then there must be something going on. Is it due to
    Trump's actions hurting the tourist crowd hitting the area or is
    something else causing the down turn?

    Over priced yes, but is it over priced for the area? I see a lot of
    food that shouldn't be more than $10 being priced up towards $20 just
    because of the location. Las Vegas strip being one of the worst places
    for over priced food even for more basic stuff like burgers or tacos.

    That?s pretty much what sandwiches cost here

    If anything is hurting tourism in L.A., it's the hug-a-thug, criminal
    coddling, and vagrant-loving actions of the mayor and city council. No one wants to walk down Hollywood Boulevard and take pictures with the stars on
    the Walk of Fame or the handprints in the cement outside the Chinese
    Theater when they're covered by tents, garbage, and feces and violently mentally ill vagrants are chasing people with machetes, while the police
    stand by and watch because they've been ordered to do so by the "democratic socialists' who are running things here.

    Has absolutely nothing to do with Trump.

    Vegas' financial woes occurred because private equity companies bought up
    the casinos and started blowing prices through the roof and charging for everything that used to be free.
