Mark Wahlberg recently entered uncharted territory.

The 53-year-old actor’s restaurant suffered a large fire on its patio due to a flat, outdoor fire pit on Wednesday.

A spokesperson for Flecha Cantina told People that a fire started after “a defective fire pit caught fire on the bottom of it.”

“The fire crew came and put it out right away,” they continued. “No damage at all in the interior restaurant. The only damage was the fire pit and the chair next to it. Thankfully, no one was injured.”

Fans could see the fire raging outside Flecha from footage shared on X by @LasVegasLocally.

The fire occurred the night before Wahlberg’s ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday, weeks after the restaurant opened its doors on Sept. 14. However, the spokesperson shared that the event will continue as planned. The Las Vegas restaurant is “a fusion of traditional Mexican flavors with innovative twists,” according to a press release. The second location comes on the heels of Flecha opening in Huntington Beach, Calif., in June.

The Clark County Fire Department received a report of a fire on the restaurant’s patio around 5:30 p.m., according to a press release obtained by the outlet. Sprinklers were activated, and everyone had been evacuated by the time the fire crew arrived.

Luckily, the fire did not spread to the interior of the building, per the fire department, and appeared to be limited to a propane fire table.

Firefighters were able to decrease the flames enough so that the propane tanks that were fueling the table could be turned off.

The Flecha spokesperson confirmed that “the fire sprinkler company came back out and recharged the system and the restaurant was back open at 7 p.m.”

Wahlberg, who moved to Las Vegas with his wife, Rhea Durham, and their four children from California in 2022, had previously opened up about his decision to expand his restaurant empire.

He told Fox News Digital in June that he wanted people to “feel like they’re at home.”

“I want… them [to] have the most amazing experience they’ve ever had in a restaurant. I want them to feel like they’re at home, that they are doted on and spoiled,” Wahlberg added.

The “Arthur the King” star continued, “I’ve sent a lot of people in unannounced to really kind of see what the experience is like. I have an amazing staff, amazing team. And we are a family, we want to share our family experience, and that really translates. So come in, have an amazing experience with the food, the hospitality, drinks, just having fun. It’s an experience that you want to have over and over again.”
