The wait is over, as the much anticipated opening of La Gula Mexicana is here. The restaurant is currently holding a soft opening, as they train new staff and work out a few kinks prior to fully opening.
La Gula Mexicana is owned and operated by the same people who have brought you Taco Bar El Guero (located in Gaithersburg near Rio) and Ixtapalapa on 355 in Gaithersburg.

South Block, a smoothie and juice bar best known for their acai bowls, shared that they are opening a new location in Pike & Rose. Per their Instagram announcement, they are hoping to open by summer 2022. They will be taking over the space currently occupied by the Residences At Pike & Rose leasing office, right next to the newly opened Call Your Mother Deli. (The leasing office will move to the spot formerly occupied by Nava Health.)
Along with their acai bowls, South Block offers other fruit and vegetable-based bowls, a range of smoothies, and cold pressed juices. They currently have eleven locations throughout DC and Virginia– their Pike & Rose spot will be their first location in Maryland. In addition to their brick and mortar locations, South Block has an online storefront where they sell pre-blended smoothie bowl kits that they deliver throughout the continental United States.

Back in March we let you know that Zofia’s Kitchen would be taking over the location that was home to Mahshad Modern Persian Kitchen in King Farm at 404 King Farm Blvd.
There wasn’t any progress after the Zofia’s Kitchen Instagram post announcing the location and a “space available” sign was put up a couple months back. We called Zofia’s Kitchen this morning, which now operates as Rogi, and were told that the deal fell through and that there are currently no plans to move into the area.
Last November we let you know that Call Your Mother, a “Jew-ish” deli best known for their bagel sandwiches, was planning to open a new location in Pike & Rose.
