A three-alarm fire broke out early Tuesday morning in at a popular Parkdale restaurant, forcing the evacuation of residents living above the eatery.

The fire at 1320 Queen St. W., near Dufferin Street, was reported shortly after 5 a.m., Capt. David Eckerman of Toronto Fire Services said.

Before the fire was doused, there were around 10 fire trucks on scene, and residents from the three-storey building — which include a restaurant on the bottom and two floors of residential space above — were evacuated and headed for shelter on a TTC bus, Eckerman said.

Queen Street was closed for a few hours but has since reopened.

No injuries were reported.

Chantecler, a French restaurant and butcher shop, posted an update on its Instagram page and said everyone is safe.

“We don’t believe it was a kitchen fire,” the post said. “Unsure as to extent of damage. The restaurant and butcher shop will be closed today. We will update all of you with information as it becomes available.”
