Lisa Vanderpump, Bravolebrity and owner of LA's Villa Blanca and SUR, informs Zagat of her approach to running a restaurant: "I am very ambiance driven. As important as the food is, I love the huge flower arrangements, I love the great lighting, I love music, I love a complete experience. When people say to me, 'Come to this little hole in the wall where the food is great,'?I'm not interested ... I'm not looking to compete with world-class restaurants in any shape or form, because that is not going to happen. But we are what we are. " [Zagat]
