Employees opening the restaurant reported wires and grease on fire, and they tried to extinguish the blaze using fire extinguishers with no success.

After fire crews arrived, Highway 99 was closed and crews started putting water on the fire, which continued to re-ignite. Within 10 minutes crews had the blaze knocked down and the Clark County Fire Marshal’s office arrived to determine a cause of the blaze.

No one was injured in the fire and no damage estimate is available at this time.
