168 Seasons Restaurant, specializing in Hong Kong cuisine, has officially opened its doors at 316 N Washington St. in Rockville (photos by @YaoFomo). This new eatery has taken over the space previously occupied by Xi’An Gourmet/Hot Pot, which had been listed as “temporarily closed” on Google for some time. The 168 Seasons signage recently appeared, and the restaurant held its soft opening last week.
One reviewer has already praised 168 Seasons, calling it “the closest restaurant in Montgomery County to a full-fledged HK cafe back in Hong Kong.” The restaurant is owned by the same team behind Double Lucky Star, located inside New York Mart at 15108 Frederick Rd. in College Plaza next to Montgomery College Rockville.
