Flames tore through Cosmo Bella on Newark Pompton Turnpike, blowing through the roof and destroying the building, which also housed apartments upstairs. No injuries were reported.

It took a few hours to douse the blaze, which broke out shortly before 1:30 a.m. Mutual aid responders included firefighters from Lincoln Park, Riverdale and Wayne.

Authorities were trying to determine the cause, although responders said initial indications are that it likely was accidental.
