The cause of the smoke is being attributed to a faulty piece of equipment and we are thankful that our fire suppression protocols prevented irreparable damage,” the restaurant said in a post. “The resulting damage was caused from smoke/heat and was isolated to the kitchen.”

According to a JFRD spokesperson, no injuries were reported in the fire.

A reopening date has not yet been announced.
