The alarm about the fire came to the SOS alarm in the morning on Saturday and the rescue service worked on site with a "comprehensive resource package" to get the fire under control.
After being completely engulfed, the rescue service reported a "positive downward trend" at 12:30, reports Strömstads tidning.
This means that we're starting to get a grip on it, says Joachim Bernehäll at the rescue service to the newspaper.
According to Strömstads tidning, there were no guests in the restaurant when the fire started and no one is reported to have been injured.
There is no suspect for involvement in the fire.
