The restaurant is located in the 24000 block of West Lockport Street.
Fire officials say the building’s sprinkler system helped keep the fire largely contained to the kitchen area. Crews were able to extinguish the fire and ventilate the building.
Everyone inside the restaurant, as well as neighboring units, was able to evacuate safely.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation. Damage is estimated at approximately $100,000.
Firefighters were called to Two Amigos, located at 2308 Lutcher Drive, shortly after 7:30 a.m. As firefighters arrived at the fire they reported “light smoke showing from the outside” of the building. They determined the fire started in the dining area just outside the kitchen and was caused by electrical problems, according to the fire department.
The fire was quickly brought under control by the restaurant’s sprinkler system, preventing further damage, according to firefighters at the scene.
Firefighters also confirmed there was a small fire at the same restaurant the day before. As a result, the business has been closed until proper repairs can be completed. Officials said Entergy and the gas company were called to the scene and were “pulling the meters” as part of the response.
No injuries were reported in connection with the fire.

The fire originated in room 116 on the first floor of the five-story extended-stay hotel. Preliminary investigations indicate that the cause was accidental, stemming from combustibles being stacked on top of a two-burner stovetop. This room was reportedly being utilized for storing materials during a kitchen remodel. It is believed that a box was inadvertently placed on the stovetop, and the right burner knob was accidentally turned on during the process. The heat from the active burner ignited the stacked boxes, leading to the fire. The estimated damage to the structure is $1,500, with an additional $500 in damage to the contents. The hotel is equipped with both smoke alarms and a fire alarm system, which were present and activated, with the sprinkler system playing a crucial role in suppressing the blaze. Twenty-five firefighters responded to the one-alarm incident.
This incident highlights the importance of maintaining awareness and caution when storing materials, especially in areas with potential ignition sources, even during renovations. Residents are reminded to ensure that all appliances are turned off and safely clear of any stored items, particularly combustible materials.
