Back in August, we let you know that Yirasai Sushi would be moving from its Westbard location in Bethesda to Park Potomac (12525 Park Potomac Ave Building G), following a conversation with restaurant management.
From August: “Earlier today we spoke with a manager at Yirasai Sushi, located at 5110 Ridgefield Road in the Westwood Shipping Center in Bethesda, who told us that the tentative plan is to close to the current location later this year as they prepare to move in to the old Elevation Burger spot in Park Potomac that became available last month.”
Per the City of Rockville:
Rockville joined the ranks of hundreds of U.S. cities on Jan. 10 as the Mayor and Council approved the city’s first plan for addressing climate change.
This past summer we let you know that 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.
Now we know the restaurant will hold a special friends & family dinner where guests can purchase $75 tickets to the event.

12/19 Update: We were told by a klnb representative that Boston Market is no longer opened in Towne Plaza.
Boston Market will be opening a new Rockville Pike location, according to signage that has been put up at the old Katsu Go location in Towne Plaza (the shopping center that’s home to Navy Federal Credit Union and Bambu). The address is 12238 Rockville Pike Rockville, MD 20852. Boston Market previously had a location just a couple miles away– on Randolph Road in Loehmann’s Plaza. That location closed back in February of 2019 and has since been replaced by Toosso.
Montgomery County Fire and Rescue units were called to 199 Rollins Ave in Rockville earlier this evening for a 2-Alarm fire.

A tractor trailer struck a parked trailer and overturned on Crabbs Branch Way this morning around 10am, according to Chief Spokesperson for Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Pete Piringer.
Hazmat is currently on the scene and there was no significant fuel spill.
