Bonchon is Now Open in The Kentlands
Last May we told you that Bonchon would be opening a Kentlands location and just over 14 months later, it has opened (according to a “Now Open” banner the restaurant has placed on the building, photo courtesy of David Peikin).
The Pike Center restaurant was the all-you-can-eat chain’s last remaining location in Montgomery County after the Gaithersburg location closed a few years back. There are still nearby locations in Frederick and Hagerstown (Hagerstown is currently listed as temporarily closed).
Pike Center in Rockville has recently lost Pier 1 Imports and Bagel City.
El Aguila is opening a second location in the Colesville Center.
The restaurant currently has a location on Georgia Avenue in Silver Spring and offers Salvadoran and Tex-Mex cuisine.
Guapo’s in Rio temporarily takes over some of the recently closed Union Jack’s to offer more patio seating.

Bagel City, located in the Pike Center shopping center off of Rockville Pike, had been in operation in that location for almost 40 years.
