UPDATE: They're finally reopening on Wednesday May 13 20 with a ribbon-cutting/party.
A fire at La Calle Doce restaurant in Lakewood was reported at about 1:20 a.m. Monday morning.
Dallas Fire-Rescue got it under control in about an hour; the outside of the restaurant had little damage and supposedly there wasn't much structural damage but there was a lot of smoke damage. That's three occurrences of "damage" in one sentence.
An employee said that the Sanchez family, who own La Calle Doce, would fix it and re-open. The Sanchez family were in the news in June when former waiter Edgar "Richie" Acevedo was sentenced to death for kidnapping and murder of Oscar Sanchez in 2005.
