🥩🍷 ROCO Gentlemen's Night: Steak. Wine. Legacy.

 A night for men who build, lead, and give back.

🔥 Event Overview

In just a few weeks—on Friday, May 29th—we invite you to step into a tradition reimagined.

Inspired by the classic New York Beefsteak Banquets of the late 19th century, ROCO Gentlemen’s Night brings forward the spirit of those iconic gatherings—where camaraderie took center stage, conversations flowed freely, and formality gave way to authenticity.

Historically, these evenings were intentionally simple and unapologetically bold: no silverware, no pretense—just great food, strong drinks, and a room full of men sharing stories and building lasting connections.

At ROCO, we honor that legacy while shaping it for today’s community.

The event is a curated experience centered on connection, presence, and purpose. Expect a relaxed, no-frills atmosphere, elevated by quality, intention, and the strength of the community around you.

During the evening, we will also recognize a distinguished member of our community—celebrating his leadership, dedication, and meaningful contributions.

All proceeds from this event will directly benefit the impactful work of ROCO Arts and ROCO Edu, supporting cultural expression and educational advancement within our community.
