The two-alarm fire broke out on the ground floor and extended to the roof of Davia Restaurant shortly before 5 a.m.

It was declared under control about 90 minutes later.

A cause wasn't immediately determined and no injuries were reported.

Mutual aid responders included firefighters from Glen Rock and Saddle Brook.

Chef Paul Villani reopened the outdoor dining area in mid-June after coronavirus restrictions were eased. Davia had remained closed for indoor dining.
