ARIANA Madix and Katie Maloney delighted fans by linking up with their old cast mates.
Stassi Schroeder and Andy Cohen visited the Vanderpump Rules star's new sandwich shop for the grand opening on Friday.
Ariana and Katie shared a photo from inside their long-anticipated sandwich shop via their social media.
In the photo, Katie stood on the end dressed in a tiny black mini dress and baseball shirt while Ariana stood on the other end in a striped buttoned shirt and jeans.
In between them, Stassi smiled at the camera in a gray sweater with a matching wool mini skirt.
She had her arm wrapped around Katie and stood close to her long-time friend.

Next to Stassi stood Andy, who dressed casually in a faded blue sweatshirt and jeans.
Stassi left Vanderpump in 2020 after she was fired for falsely reporting her cast mate Faith Stowers to the police.
Faith said she and a few other cast members reported her after reading a Daily Mail article about a black woman who was allegedly drugging and robbing men in Hollywood.
Bravo took action by firing her after learning about the incident, which took place in 2018.

"Racially insensitive comments from my past have resurfaced. It is important that I continue to take accountability for what I have said and done, while pushing myself to do better," she wrote at the time.
"I have grown significantly from the person I was then, and I am still filled with remorse and regret for the hurt I caused.
"What I did to Faith was wrong. I apologize and I do not expect forgiveness. I am also sorry to anyone else that feels disappointed in me," she continued.
"I am going to continue to look closer at myself and my actions – to take the time to listen, to learn, and to take accountability for my own privilege."
LIFE AFTER PUMP
Since leaving the show, Stassi launched a self-titled podcast about her life and has completed a few national tours.
Despite not returning to the show, she has remained friends with her old cast mates and social media fans were excited at their reunion.
"I miss seeing Stassi on air," wrote a fan.
"No shade…but leaving that show was the best thing Stassi ever did for herself, she’s come so far," added another.
"Take that @lala_kent and @LisaVanderpump This is what friends look like who support each other!" noted a third.
"Andy quickly trying to hop the fence after seeing the viewers response," speculated a fourth.
Andy hosted an explosive Vanderpump Rules reunion where Lala Kent came under fire for her direct speech.
Katie and Lala appeared to butt heads over Ariana, with Lala defending the actions of Tom Sandoval following his affair with Rachel Leviss.
THE GRAND OPENING
Some fans took Andy's appearance at the sandwich shop as a response to fan reaction, with social media users siding with Katie.
Another video was shared of Stassi and Andy enjoying a sandwich and catching up while at the new sandwich shop.
The shop, called Something About Her, will open Wednesday to the public in Los Angeles.
