Tom Schwartz Says He Lost Up to $700,000 on Schwartz & Sandy’s in Lala Kent Interview

The collapse of the Los Angeles bar followed fallout from Tom Sandoval’s affair, straining the partners’ longtime friendship.

Overview

  • Speaking on Kent’s Untraditionally Lala podcast, Schwartz said his investment loss totaled roughly $600,000 to $700,000.
  • The restaurant opened in 2022 and closed after about two years as the scandal surrounding Sandoval hurt operations and the partnership.
  • Schwartz said he has not spoken to Jo Wenberg, keeps her blocked, and maintains there is no bad blood.
  • He called throwing a drink at ex-wife Katie Maloney his lowest moment and described their current relationship as respectful and cordial.
  • When reminded he once called Kent a “bootleg housewife,” he said he had forgotten and attributed the remark to drinking.
