These seven kitchens sit on Rockville Pike, Hungerford Drive, Dawson Avenue, Nelson Street, Fishers Lane and Woodglen Drive, and cook Sichuan, Chongqing noodles, dim sum, soup dumplings, Taiwanese baos and vegetarian Chinese.

Rockville has no single Chinatown block. Washington's Chinatown is a different city: Wikipedia describes it as a small historic area of Downtown Washington along H and I Streets NW between 5th and 8th Streets, with fewer than 300 Chinese residents in 2017. The Banner (January 22, 2026) says Rockville has been called a new Chinatown for decades, describes Chinese restaurants in strip-mall enclaves along Rockville Pike, and says more than 21 percent of Rockville residents identified as Asian in the 2020 census; the owner of A&J Restaurant says Rockville is not really just narrowed down to being a new Chinatown. The seven restaurants here are on Rockville Pike, Hungerford Drive, Dawson Avenue, Nelson Street, Fishers Lane and Woodglen Drive; the Washington, DC guide on this site already covers Sichuan Jin River, A&J Restaurant, Far East Restaurant and Bob's Shanghai 66 in Rockville.
