In Short
This Philadelphia institution is considered a front-runner in the great cheesesteak debate. That's why customers line up on its noxiously sanitized sidewalks at all hours. The steaks ooze grease, which seeps into the roll and makes the entire sandwich a mind-blowing experience. Make sure to get fried onions on top, and don't try to sound well-heeled by ordering some kind of facy cheese like provolone. Jim's famous cheez wiz will do perfectly fine.

Jim's steaks has pretty good food at slightly higher then average prices. They are very accessible as they are located in the Cottman Mall away from the foot traffic. I stop by sometimes simply for the cheese fries. They do get quite busy during the weekends especially in the summer but foot traffic moves quickly. PROS: Good food CONS: Slightly higher prices

Know Before You Go:
The servers at Jim's have something of a reputation for rushing customers and barking at them when they don't fork over their cash fast enough. Out-of-towners will find themselves stunned by the rude treatment.
