As viewers of the beloved series know, this business is a long time coming, which is why the two are ecstatic for their latest venture. "It's been great because we've had the same vision for what we want to accomplish and how we want things to be," the Dancing With the Stars cast member explains.

"Collaborating with each other has been a really great time, and I think that our strengths complement each other," Madix adds. "Maybe it's the Cancer/Capricorn combo, but it's great!"

While Madix and Maloney are pros at supporting each other, they are also eager to continue highlighting other female-owned businesses on the menu at the eatery. "Whether it's women-owned wine brands or any way we can incorporate that into our business, we're definitely all about that because it's very difficult to be taken seriously or to be given the opportunity as women in the business world," Madix says.

While juggling the opening of a business, competing on a dance competition show and all of their many other ventures, Madix and Maloney filmed Season 11 of VPR in the aftermath of the phenomenon that was dubbed "Scandoval."
