Rok:Brgr to open along Atlantic Ave. in Delray Beach

- By Miriam Valverde Staff writer

Rok:Brgr, offering more than 100 craft beers and signature burgers, plans to open its first Palm Beach County location next year.

Marc Falsetto, co-founder of JEY Hospitalit­y Group, said the restaurant will open along Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach. A site has not been selected.

The expansion will follow the opening of a Rok:Brgr next fall at The Village at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach.

That restaurant is expected to open in October and become the third and largest Rok:Brgr for Fort Lauderdale-based JEY Hospitalit­y.

JEY Hospitalit­y opened its first Rok:Brgr in Fort Lauderdale’s Himmarshee Street in 2010 and a second one in South Miami in 2012.

The Hallandale restaurant willbe more than twice the size of the downtown Fort Lauderdale Rok:Brgr and have room for more than 200 guests in its indoor and outdoor areas.

“We want to serve the Aventura, North Miami and Hallandale area,” Falsetto said. “We figured Hallandale was a perfect fit for us.”

Rok:Brgr’s menu features more than 17 signature burgers, including the “Las Olas,” “King James” and“D Wade.” It also serves salads, comfort food and cocktails.

Falsetto said the group also is eyeing the Tampa and Orlando markets for expansion within the next two years.

JEY Hospitalit­y also recently launched Himmarshee Public House, serving comfort food, craft beer and cocktails, in downtown Fort Lauderdale.
