It looks like Ashton Kutcher's Los Angeles restaurant, Dolce, has been punk'd.

Dolce, which Kutcher owns with 15 other investors – including his That 70's Show costars Wilmer Valderrama and Danny Masterson, as well as Big Brother star Mike Malin, Jamie Kennedy and Masterson's brother Chris – was burglarized twice over Labor Day weekend, reports TV's Access Hollywood.

While a spokesman for the restaurant would not comment, the Los Angeles Police Department says that in the initial theft on Sept. 4, money and checks were removed from a small safe. This was followed by a Sept. 6 theft of cash and wine.

Reporting on Kutcher's and his co-owners' investment in the 16-month-old eatery, the current issue of PEOPLE reports that it was a sound financial move – to the point that now their friends want in on it, too.

Tara Reid, Tori Spelling and Laura Prepon have joined the guys to invest in Malin's Geisha House, set to open in November. Furthermore, Valderrama, the Mastersons and Prepon are also teaming with Malin on the Lodge, a steak house opening next month in L.A.
