Andy Cohen Pays Bill, Restaurant Reverses Decision
29 Jul
Summary
- Beador felt bothered by not receiving a free meal with Andy Cohen.
- Cohen happily paid the $540 bill and left a large tip.
- The restaurant later offered to comp the meal after Cohen left.

Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador was reportedly displeased when The Quiet Woman restaurant did not offer her and Andy Cohen a complimentary meal. Beador stated she felt it was 'ridiculous' given Cohen's celebrity status and the restaurant's past appearances on the show. She suggested a discount or free appetizers would have been appropriate.
However, Beador clarified that Cohen had already paid the $540 bill and left a substantial tip before the restaurant's manager approached. The manager then offered to 'rip up the bill,' a gesture Cohen accepted after ensuring his tip reached the server. Cohen later described the evening as fun and expressed no issue with the restaurant's actions.
