Lisa Vanderpump restaurants aren’t the only thing keeping this business-minded maven rollin’ in the dough. Besides RHOBH and Vanderpump Rules – she’s got a boatload of other ventures to keep her busy…
ArrayLisa Vanderpump resturaunts and life exploded into the homes of mainstream America with her appearance on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Vanderpump Rules. For those of you not so familiar with the latter who are asking “Eh? What is Vanderpump Rules?”, well, it is a highly successful spin-off of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills starring none other than the fabulosity that is this woman, Lisa Vanderpump. The show takes place at one of the Vanderpump’s restaurants by the name of SUR. Are you wanting to visit and asking “Where is SUR?” SUR is on the elite Robertson Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA. Another question many ask is “When did SUR open?” It’s somewhat unclear, but based on our research it opened sometime in late 2011. The opening was featured in a January 2012 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which is still one of the highest rated episodes in the history of the show.
ArrayWhat does SUR mean you ask? Well, that’s exactly what we’re here for! The word sur is French in origin and actually means “on/above” — as in Sur La Table.
However, in the book of Vanderpump, it means – brace yourself — Sexy. Unique. Restaurant. Yep — Not even joking. You literally couldn’t make this stuff up.
So we’re pretty darn sure that there’s a lot about this business woman that you may not officially know. As a result, we’ve answered your most asked questions to keep you on top of your Vanderpump game.
Where Does Lisa Vanderpump Live?
Mrs. Vanderpump lives in a $15+ million luxurious Beverly Hills estate with her husband, Ken Todd and their multitude of pets.

It’s 8,800 square feet with 5-bedrooms, 8-bathrooms, a spa in the master suite, a large swimming pool, and a gated entrance.

Mrs. V got the name when she looked up the word in the dictionary to find the definition that hit home: “a young man made for love and affection, often by an older woman.”
ArrayAlong with Giggy are Daddio (Giggy’s biological father), two golden retrievers, Rumpy and Avery (aka Pumpy), an 11-year-old pink Pomeranian (which she gets by adding food coloring to his bath) as well as Lollipop, an 11-year-old Maltese and Pikachu, an 11-year-old Pomeranian.
