He previously shared with Fox News Digital he was expanding his restaurant empire because he wanted to invite people to dine and "feel like they’re at home."

"I want to have them 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 told Fox News Digital of his new restaurant, Flecha. 

He 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."

He also had the opening blessed by Diocese of Orange Bishop Kevin W. Vann, in a nod to his devout Catholic faith.
