WOW Japanese Bistro closed for non-payment of sales tax

If you are a fan of WOW Japanese Bistro on Dickson Street , I’ve got some unfortunate news.

Earlier today, we noticed officials posting a yellow sign in the window of the restaurant indicating closure due to non-payment of withholding tax, and a another indicating non-payment of sales tax.

According to the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration’s website, the restaurant was served a closure notification on November 8.

Sad news, sushi fans.

In related news, we’ve heard rumors that national build-your-own burrito chain Chipotle Mexican Grill may be interested in the WOW Japanese Bistro location at 505 West Dickson Street. We’ll keep you posted on that.
