Roadside Taco Studio City hosted a special guest bartending event featuring Mark Wahlberg and Aron Marquez on behalf of Flecha Azul Tequila on March 31, 2023. Flecha Azul Tequila is dedicated to producing the world’s finest ultra-premium tequila while honoring centuries of tradition and heritage.
Actor and producer Mark Wahlberg, a brand investor and partner, rocked a Roadside Taco trucker hat and a pink hoodie, while he played bartender behind the bar for the excited crowd of tequila and taco loving fans for over an hour, pouring up both shots and margaritas. Wahlberg was joined behind the bar by Flecha Azul co-founder Aron Marquez and longtime friend Vincent Laresca, owner of Roadside Taco.
During the bartending session Mark took a break to walk through the outdoor patio, meet guests, pose for selfies with fans, and pour shots for them to try. He poured shots of the Blanco, Reposado and Anejo flavors of his Flecha Azul tequila brand, and returned behind the bar rocking white tee shirt for the remainder of his bartending session. After posing for additional photos with fans and patrons, he then enjoyed tacos in a booth with friends. He was seen interacting with fans and guests the entire time.
Various influencers and industry were also in attendance for the guest bartending celebration such as Love Island‘s Mackenzie Dipman and Welcome to Chippendale’s actor Maximilian Acevedo, among others.
Roadside Taco offered Flecha Azul Blanco Margaritas for $7 from 4-6pm and $1 Tacos during the celebration. There was a line around the block of patrons waiting to join the festivities at the large Studio City based taqueria restaurant and patio and a packed dining patio. Both the tequila and thet tacos were flowing.
