Statement from Sport & Social Regarding FanDuel Sportsbook
Sports & Social at 11800 Grand Park Ave in Pike & Rose announced recently that it will be opening on September 9th. Today we received the following statement about their upcoming sportsbook:
Terrain Café, the restaurant inside Anthropologie & Co. at 4801 Bethesda Ave. in Bethesda Row, reopened yesterday, Friday, August 27th.
The contemporary American neighborhood staple offers seasonally changing brunch, lunch, and dinner menus featuring hand-selected local produce, meats and more, alongside thoughtfully curated beverages.
Co-founders Nick Wiseman, David Wiseman and Ronen Tenne plan to open a Little Sesame restaurant at 7118 Bethesda Lane, Bethesda, Maryland, later this year, proudly joining the stellar line up of restaurants and retail in downtown Bethesda.
The opening will be the hummus brand’s first outpost outside of DC. Little Sesame is excited to bring their freshly spun hummus, seasonal pita sandwiches to the neighborhood. The fan favorite shawarma-spiced rotisserie family meals will join the menu as the perfect dinner choice along with a curated selection of quality beer, natural wine, and low ABV canned cocktails. Nick Wiseman says: “We’ve always wanted to open a shop in Bethesda” notes Wiseman “We got such a warm welcome to our Sugar Fox Pop Up and the Bethesda Central Farm Market and we’re thrilled to plant permanent roots in this community.”
El Mercat Bar De Tapas will be taking over the spot that was most recently home to Gumbo Ya Ya at 101 Gibbs Street Unit C in Rockville Town Square.
It has been over a year since La Tasca announced its permanent closure in Rockville Town Square– leaving the square without a tapas restaurant.
It has been about a year and a half since Bar Louie closed both MoCo locations.While we reported the replacement for the Wheaton location back in June, the Rockville location replacement remained a mystery– until now.
Federal Realty has included two new tenants in its latest site plan and tenant roster, and it looks as though Lagos Bar & Grill will be taking over the 6,599 square foot location that used to be home to Bar Louie in Rockville Town Square.

Though Wes Yao, owner of popular Pike & Rose restaurant Kusshi Sushi, has a YouTube channel that playfully warns others to avoid opening restaurants, he never imagined he would get assaulted at his own restaurant (warning: his YouTube channel contains language that isn’t suitable for everyone).
This morning we spoke with Yao, who told us of the situation that occurred at his restaurant earlier this week. A video of the incident can be found on the JackFroot Instagram account.
