Fire damages kitchen at Hamburger Harry’s Sunday

Updated with additional details.

Downtown Edmonds’ Hamburger Harry’s restaurant was evacuated late Sunday morning after a kitchen fire was reported around 11:35 a.m.

According to South County Fire spokesperson Leslie Hynes, crews had the fire contained shortly after arriving at the restaurant, located at 610 5th Ave. S. At the time the blaze broke out, the restaurant was getting ready to open, so employees were the only ones evacuated. One worker was evaluated for smoke inhalation but didn’t require transportation to the hospital, Hynes said.

The fire was contained to the kitchen area, where equipment was destroyed. The damage was estimated at between $10,000 and $12,000, she said.
