We were informed of the closing last week, but management told us that the restaurant would be staying open. Earlier this afternoon we were told that today would be the last day for the Bethesda restaurant.
Crave has 10 other locations nationwide, primarily in Minnesota (with locations in South Dakota and Iowa as well). They were in Montgomery Mall for a little over 4 years.
The Southern California-based assembly line style fast casual restaurant has taken over the Naples Ristorante location in the mall’s food court.
The bakery, best known for their cinnamon rolls cinnamon products, coffee, and frozen drinks, is rumored to be coming back to Montgomery Mall after local blog, Store Reporter, announced the return earlier today.
My contact at Montgomery Mall told me that it is not yet confirmed, but that they expect confirmation in the coming weeks.
Yesterday I spoke with Wicked Waffle and was told they’re only closed temporarily, but today I spoke with a representative from Montgomery Mall who confirmed that the waffle spot won’t be re-opening in the mall. An employee from Wicked Waffle DC also confirmed that they will not be opening the Montgomery Mall location.
Joel Rogozinski, a graduate of the Charles E. Smith Jewish Day School in Rockville, and his fiancée Holly Bagwell opened their first location in an outdoor mall in Purcellville, VA this past August and wanted to take the opposite approach by opening an indoor location late this fall.
Holly saw a craft pop store as a teen in Alabama and wanted to open something similar ever since. This past April they put together a trailer and started attending events, selling their homemade pops as vendors. Just four months later they opened their first shop.

You’ll be able to purchase 10, 20, 30, or 60 minute packs to play games that include google paint, mini-golf, boxing, walking on a plank across a skyscraper, a haunted house, and a lot more.
Poke is the Hawaiian word that means “to cut” or “to slice”, usually referring to chunks of raw, marinated fish (but can also include other forms of protein). It’s then tossed over rice and topped with vegetables and different types of sauces.
According to Eater DC, the restaurant offers “assorted salads (Caesar; mixed beet; grilled chicken), sandwiches (portobello mushroom with pesto goat cheese; grass fed steak with chimichurri aioli), and build-your-own entrees composed of core offerings (habanero-mango ribs: baked salmon with honey-mustard sauce; turkey meatloaf with barbecue sauce). Carry-out family meals designed to serve four people (starting at $48) include one main, two large sides, and grilled bread.”
Today we have some updates!
Lets start with Viva Japanese Steakhouse. Not only will the restaurant have hibachi-style grills, but they’ll also have a sushi bar and Asian-style fusion dishes. They’ll be opening later this summer, right outside of ArcLight Cinemas.
On January, we were the first to report that Sears filed a notice stating their Montgomery Mall location would be closing on March 18th, 2018. Sears later claimed they accidentally filed the notice and that they signed a new lease the mall.
The plan, according to Westfield, is for the Sears building to be replaced by a mixed-use center that will contain upscale restaurants, housing, high-end shops, walkways, and a promenade reminiscent to Tyson’s Corner (where Shake Shack is located just outside of the mall itself).
A new ramen spot will be taking over the old Boardwalk Burgers & Fries (November 2016-December 2017) in between Panda Express and Sarku Japan in the food court. Viva Japanese […]
