Restaurant Review: Jesse's Place

So last week for Melissa's birthday, we decided to try a local restaurant that we pass by every day but have never eaten at.  This place is called "Jesse's Place" and is known for being a staple in 181st street Washington Heights culture.  Melissa & I ordered the Linguini with portabella and goat cheese.  It was so amazing!  Then we ordered the Avocad Salad which was a regular salad but topped with pineapple, orange, balsamic vinaigrette, and avocado, with a cherry on top!  This was also deeeeelicious.  However, a couple days later, we ordered the exact same meals & they were not nearly as good.  Note: Jesse's Place tastes much better after/with a couple of drinks!  Anyways, the food was still good but it varies from trip to trip.    All in all, we would definitely recommend trying it.
