A Salisbury Road restaurant was totally destroyed in a blaze on Thursday night (April 26).

Diners and office workers fled to safety as flamed ripped through a restaurant at Vista Business Centre in Hounslow shortly before 11pm.

London Fire Brigade (LFB) were called to a fire at 50 Salisbury Road at 10.56pm.

72 firefighters tackled flames that engulfed a three-floors restaurant destroying it entirely.

Smoke from the fire entered a neighbouring 11 storey office block which had to be ventilated by LFB officers.

10 people fled the restaurant before LFB arrived and another 10 escaped the office block.

Firefighters evacuated a further eight people to safety.

There were no reports injuries in the fire.

An LFB spokesman said: "Ten fire engines and 72 firefighters and officers were called to a fire at a business centre in Salisbury Road, Hounslow.

"A restaurant of two floors and with a lower ground floor was destroyed by the fire. An adjacent office building of 11 floors was ventilated by crews due to smoke logging on multiple floors.
