​BurgerIM, an Israeli burger chain that translates to “many burgers” from Hebrew, will be opening soon in Wheaton Mall. The first BurgerIM opened in 2011 and the burger chain has already expanded to over 160 stores worldwide in just over 5 years.

They sell mini-burgers (not sliders) using 2.8 ounce patties that are larger than a slider sized patty. Their selling point is variety, and there’s plenty of it. They offer 11 different types of patties, including beef, dry aged beef, Wagyu beef, merguez, Turkey, lamb, chicken, salmon, veggie, Spanish beef, and falafel.


Decorated in a vibrant, patterned tile mosaic décor, LEBTAV will be located next to Ulta and will have an expanded outdoor eating area next to Modern Market. The other LEBTAV location is in Annapolis at Festival at Riva.


With the recent news of KPS closing and Mezzeh relocating to Aspen Hill, the food court took a bit of a hit, but quality pizza & handmade pasta in a fast-casual setting should help anyone feeling down.

Chef Angel Mendoza is a certified Pizzaiolo, and has spent decades honing his craft at 2Amy’s and RedRocks Pizzeria.


​To my knowledge, this is the first restaurant of its kind in our area. It is serving Gaithersburg and surrounding areas and is only available through the food delivery service, Uber Eats.

They offer BBQ (brisket, ribs, fried chicken sandwiches, pulled pork, etc.), sides (coleslaw, Mac & cheese, rice & beans, etc.), and desserts (Oreo brownie, Saturday morning cereal treats, and cocoa crispy treats).


The Maryland based chain opened their first store in Annapolis in 2013. The fast casual eatery offers rice and salad bowls with a variety of Mediterranean meats, spices, sauces and toppings.

Their other MoCo location can be found in Downtown Crown (Gaithersburg).


Signage was removed a couple weeks back, but the restaurant initially stated they were just remodeling. The windows are now boarded up and the restaurant closed permanently earlier this week.

Calls to the location on Crystal Rock Drive are now being forwarded to Fox Chapel location (19733 Frederick Rd.), which will cover most of the closed location’s delivery area.


Today, approximately 10 months after their Bethesda location opened, Bethesda Beat reported that they’ll be opening their second location in MoCo when they open up in Kentlands Market Square in Gaithersburg.
