Mark Wahlberg, the beloved Hollywood star, has recently faced a bit of a setback with his new venture. His highly anticipated restaurant, Flecha Cantina, located in Las Vegas, Nevada, caught fire just hours before the scheduled ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Videos shared on social media captured the frightening scene as flames engulfed the outdoor patio of the restaurant. Emergency services quickly arrived on the scene and were able to put out the fire before anyone was hurt. The Clark County Fire Department reported that the fire was caused by a defective fire pit that caught fire from the bottom.
Fortunately, the restaurant staff had already evacuated the building by the time the fire department arrived. A spokesperson for the eatery reassured fans that there was minimal damage and that the interior of the restaurant was unharmed. They also mentioned that the only damage was to the fire pit and a nearby chair.
The fire department confirmed that the fire did not spread to the interior of the restaurant. They were able to control the blaze and safely turn off the propane tanks fueling the fire table. The restaurant's sprinkler system also helped contain the fire, and it was quickly recharged so that the restaurant could resume its operations.
Flecha Cantina had its grand opening in Las Vegas just two months ago, following the success of its first location in Huntington Beach, California. The restaurant boasts a fusion of traditional Mexican flavors with a modern twist, making it a popular spot for locals and tourists alike.
The fire was a minor hiccup in Mark's big move from California to Sin City in 2022. He and his wife, Rhea Durham, along with their four children, were excited to start a new chapter in their lives. Mark expressed his love for the city, saying that it's a place where his kids can thrive and pursue their dreams.
Despite the unexpected fire, the restaurant is still on track to hold its official ribbon-cutting ceremony. Mark and his team are determined to continue providing delicious food and a great dining experience to their customers.
