Best cheesesteaks! Great location!. for the best cheese teaks, hoagies, cheese fries, milkshakes, burgers, chicken tenders, you name it, this is the place to go! The atmosphere is clean, the workers are very friendly and helpful, and you can eat in or take out, not to mention the retro look of the place, they also use all fresh ingredients. I have had heard of people from all over the country coming to Jims just for a cheesesteak. They even sell beer. With the cheeses, you have a choice of cheese whiz, american or provolone. the cheese whiz is the best. The only thing is, the prices are a bit high, but it is sure worth it. I have eaten at pats, genos, and steves, even from pizza places and none of them even compare to Jims, it has a certain taste to it that beats the rest.
This cheesesteak joint is not only a critical part of Philadelphia's atmosphere, it's also a local treasure..
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.
