Post Malone was beaming as he greeted crowds of fans before cutting the ribbon at his custom all-pink restaurant on Thursday.
The rapper, 27, couldn’t contain his excitement as he unveiled a one-of-a-kind Raising Cane’s, in Midvale, Utah after putting in a request to have one open by his house.
The fast food outlet, founded by Todd Graves, features Medieval-themed restrooms, tattoo imagery and a pick up truck in a nod to all things Post Malone loves.
Wearing a leather bomber jacket with a pair of black jeans, the musician high-fived the crowd and posed for photos on his arrival.
Post Malone, real name Austin Post, later took off his coat to reveal a grey and pink Raising Cane T-shirt before heading inside.

He then held a huge pair of scissors above his head as he chopped the ribbon to open the newly-renovated venue.
The restaurant, designed by the singer, features outfits worn by him and several of his guitars framed and hung on the walls.
His fascination with medieval armour is evident through its design, with the quirky themed restrooms.
A classic 1974 Ford F250 wrapped in brushed silver with a custom license plate will be a permanent fixture in the parking lot as a nod to his love of the car.
Customers will be able to order their food ‘The Posty Way’, based on his personal go-to order of four chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, two sauces, two texas toasts, extra salt and pepper, and a half unsweet tea and half lemonade.
The project came about after Post Malone made a request to fast food chain founder Todd Graves to open a restaurant near his house.
Speaking at the opening he explained: ‘I have the best childhood memories of eating at Raising Cane’s in Dallas. Collaborating with Todd on this restaurant near my house in Utah was awesome and I can’t wait for everyone to order their meal the Posty Way.’
Todd added: ‘Post and I not only have a special friendship, but we are fans of each other’s brand, and we are excited to reveal this Post Malone designed Raising Cane’s.

‘This collaboration goes above and beyond to combine Post’s legendary vision with our award-winning Chicken Fingers. It s over the top something the restaurant industry has never seen to this level.’
It comes after Post Malone sparked concern for his wellbeing as he wrapped up his Australian tour last month.
The singer raised eyebrows during his Sydney show in February as he began twitching and awkwardly fidgeting during a rendition of his hit song, I Fall Apart.
Viral footage from the performance shows Malone jolting his arms bizarrely, rubbing his skin and playing with his T-shirt while belting out the lyrics.
Another clip shows the heavily-tattooed star bending forward and balancing the microphone on his lips.
Some fans have expressed their concern online, with one tweeting: ‘I really hope he’s staying clean. Some movements worry me’, while another suggested: ‘Maybe it’s like a nervous tick?’

Another wrote: ‘Looks like he’s having anxiety. I do the same thing with my shirts when I’m freaking out I hope he’s okay.’
However, others rushed to defend Malone by pointing out that his bizarre movements are nothing new, and certainly no cause for alarm.
‘He’s always been an animated performer like this. Stop,’ one tweeted, as someone else added: ‘That’s just how he performs that specific song.’
‘If they were ‘fans’ they’d know this is just his live set,’ another agreed.
