The restaurant was recently renovated, which made the fire that much more devastating for the owners.

“It really was a shock, and it’s so saddening because we have a lot of people who work for us, a lot of people who depend on us, and we've been a staple in the community for years and years and we have a great following,” co-owner Dan Antonelli said.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
