I love this bar, but I don't necessarily love paying taxes! At least that's what the owner of the New York location of Toby Keith's "I Love This Bar & Grill," in Syracuse, must be thinking.

The Post Standard of Syracuse reports that the restaurant reportedly owes the state more than a quarter-million dollars in sales taxes.

A tax warrant was filed earlier this month seeking $107,000 from the restaurant  which is located in the Destiny USA shopping mall. But the problem does not end there, this location allegedly owes more than $145,000 from earlier in 2013.

The restaurant chain is named after one of Tpoby Keith's biggest hits, "I Love This Bar"

Each restaurant location features a guitar-shaped bar, beers served only in mason jars and some traditional, and southern food.

The closest location is 5441 Park Place in Rosemont, IL.
