Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney's awaited Something About Her sandwich shop will host a grand opening on May 22, 2024.

It comes nearly three years after the friends and business partners — who star together on Vanderpump Rules — secured their LLC.

A source told the Sun that Ariana, 38, and Katie's, 37, establishment will have soft openings ahead of the official opening date.

Per the publication, the food shop will have a 'big WeHo Pride party' during West Hollywood's annual Pride Weekend Friday, May 31 through Sunday, June 2.

'The inside of the shop is ready to go. Everything is still in place as it has been teased on the show,' the insider dished.

A person close to the situation revealed to Reality Tea back in January that the pair has spent nearly $1M on the shop as they have been shelling out $8k/month in rent.

Madix and Maloney are reportedly waiting for a storefront sign, and for the patio to be reconstructed after it was taken down due to a permit issue. 

It comes after last month Katie assured fans that Something About Her was going to open soon when she appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.

On the episode, host Andy, 55, relayed a question from a viewer who asked when the opening will be.

'I don't want to say the opening day because...,' Katie began.

'Right. This year?' Andy then asked.

'Oh, for sure. I told you at the reunion. You know that it's coming very soon. So very soon,' Katie said, giving a final answer.

Ariana and Katie first announced their plans to open a gourmet sandwich shop in 2022.

It was initially slated to launch in May the following year.

Last year the stars made light of the unforeseen circumstances that derailed their schedule, playfully crossing out their '2022' opening and swapping it with '2023'

The shop's launch, however, was hit by numerous delays, with Ariana revealing they had 'a lot of hoops to jump through' to secure the correct permits.

The Instagram page for the shop — which boasts 392,000 followers — is currently idle, with a single January 2022 post lingering.

Meanwhile, Ariana has leaned into her other professional endeavors, including a cocktail recipe book called Single AF Cocktails: Drinks for Bad B*tches.

She is also the star of Chicago on Broadway, wowing live audiences with her portrayal of Roxie Hart.
