Mark Wahlberg’s new restaurant had a pretty hot opening night, though.
The Boogie nights actor celebrated his Las Vegas restaurant Flecha Cantina with a ribbon-cutting ceremony the day after a fire broke out on the patio.
“Amazing grand opening last night🥳,” Wahlberg, 53, captioned an Instagram video taken Thursday, Nov. 7. “It’s the coolest restaurant in Vegas😎🥃🥂🍾 @flechacantina 🥃🏹📈💯 @flechaazultequila 🥃🔥”

In the clip, Gone the star could be seen answering phone calls as she entered the restaurant. One customer told Wahlberg he would be a few minutes late, and Wahlberg confirmed that “there’s no fire, we’re fine, we’re open for business.”
“I’m keeping it for you until you come,” he added over the phone.
On November 6, a fire broke out in the restaurant before the party. Flecha has been in a soft opening since September 14th.
A spokesperson for Flecha Cantina told PEOPLE that “a broken firebox caught fire at the bottom” of the restaurant’s patio.
“The fire brigade immediately came and extinguished it,” they added. “There is no damage inside the restaurant. The only damage was the fireplace and the chair next to it. Fortunately, no one was hurt.”

The Clark County Fire Department responded to a report of a fire on the restaurant’s patio around 5:30 that evening, according to a press release obtained by PEOPLE.
The sprinklers were activated when firefighters arrived and everyone evacuated the area. Firefighters contained the fire enough to shut off the propane tank, and the restaurant resumed operations at 7 p.m., a Flech spokesman confirmed.
