Japanese Restaurant Taking Over Former Divino Space

"Yuzu" could be open by April, Bethesda Magazine reports.

"There have been extensive negotiations with the landlord and due to the approach of the expiration of our lease, we did not have another choice," wrote managers in a note left on the door, Patch reported.

The restaurant could be open as soon as April. Read the full story at Bethesda Magazine.
