  • CLOSED FOR NOW: Paper covers the windows at Harry and Jorge’s

After opening just before Memorial Day in the former home of Flying Burrito, Harry and Jorge’s is closed with paper over the windows. According to Arkansas Business, that seems likely to have something to do with a recent lawsuit filed by owner Daniel Bryant’s former franchisors, Flying Burrito owners Mike Rohrbach and Archie Schaffer IV, which asks for an injunction, claiming that Bryant’s agreement prohibited him from running another Mexican restaurant in the space on Clinton Avenue for two years. AB also reports that they filed suit alleging $100,000 in back franchise royalties owed.
