Four days after Mahogany’s was forced to close its doors, it is scheduled to reopen Saturday.

The Ohio Department of Taxation closed the restaurant down Tuesday because of unpaid state taxes.

Officials confirmed Friday that Mahogany’s tax debts have been settled and the restaurant will be allowed to reopen.

The state would not say how much money the restaurant owed in back taxes.

The department said it was standard procedure to close any restaurant that failed to pay its taxes for two consecutive tax periods or three times in 12 months.

One employee told WLWT News 5 that her last paycheck bounced and that she and other employees received a call Tuesday telling them the restaurant would be closed and they would have the day off.

A city spokesman said owner Liz Rogers was also behind on a city loan repayment. He stressed that it was in everyone's best interest that the restaurant remain open so it can continue paying its employees and repaying its debts.
