Capital Region Restaurant and Bar to Be Featured on 'ABR Roadshow' Soon

A story from WNYT Channel 13 in Albany shared the news that Illusive Restaurant and Bar had been chosen to be on America’s Best Restaurants. The Rensselaer, NY staple was visited by ABR in the past week, and the restaurant is now officially featured on their webpage. An episode featuring the restaurant will likely be published to their YouTube channel soon.

Check out this video posted by the staff at Illusive while ABR was visiting their restaurant:

This isn't the first time that the popular restaurant has been featured online. Check out this profile on Illusive, done by The Empire Plate two years ago:

As noted on the America's Best Restaurants' website, Illusive Restaurant & Bar was designed through a collaborative effort made up of industry veterans, and reflects the hip sensibilities of the surrounding area while also paying tribute to Rensselaer's storied past.

Illusive Restaurant and Bar has been family owned and operated since 2015, and came in 1st Place at the Peoples Choice Capital Wing Wars in 2022. Visit their official website for more information, or to place an online order.
