Scojo’s Restaurant In Surf City Rebuilds After Damage From Fire

SURF CITY, NJ — Scojo’s Restaurant reopened their doors on Sunday for the first time in more than three months.

The restaurant shuttered on Jan. 21 after a fire erupted on the building’s second floor. Due to fire and water damage, most of the building had to be repaired.

Patrons and friends donated $33,710 to a GoFundMe to help support the staff while the restaurant was closed for renovations.

Since reopening Sunday, owner Andy Clark said business has been overwhelming.

“It’s very exciting. I think it’s going to be a great summer,” said Clark.

Scojo’s Restaurant is open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. every day.
