About the SUR Restaurant

SUR is owned jointly by two couples. Guillermo Zapata ran SUR for about ten years. Guillermo met his wife, Nathalie, in the restaurant in 2001. Nathalie joined her husband in running the restaurant. In 2005, they met Lisa Vanderpump Todd and Ken Todd, a British couple who owned ten restaurants and bars in London. The two couples joined forces to take the restaurant to the next level.

Theme Song
