When fire crews arrived, heavy smoke was streaming from the building’s roof, officials say.
Officials say the fire started in the attic space near the centre of the building.
Robin True, deputy chief of training for Riverview Fire and Rescue, said 18 firefighters and four fire vehicles responded to the incident.
They were assisted by the Moncton Fire Department, Ambulance NB and NB Power.
No injuries were reported, but police say damage to the building’s interior was “extensive,” while the roof also received structural damage.
The restaurant opened in February. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
