I went to Philly a few weeks ago with my friends for a mini-vacation. We definitely had to try the cheesesteaks! We've eaten at Geno's, Pat's and Jim's. Geno's steak didn't have enough flavor and Pat's was only a little bit better. My friends drenched their steaks from Geno's and Pat's in ketchup and mayo. I like my steaks as is - greasy in it's cheesy-fried onion goodness. None of the two top dogs measure up to Jim's in flavor and quality. One of the cooks was slightly rude to some of the customers but I had a nastier time at Pat's, who didn't even wrap my steak up like Jim's who gives you the full service! We were all happy the most with JIM'S! We even had lunch and each brought one home with us as dinner on our last day in Philly. It is worth the money! Don't throw away your money at Geno's or Pat's (all the steaks are around 7 bucks each for anywhere decent so spend that 7 on a definite winner!). You will see why Jim's is the local favorite. Stop by Rita's Water Ice too if you want a fantastic frozen treat! I'm want some cheesesteaks now!!!! *drools*
Pros: Cheesesteaks! I wanna eat one NOW!
Cons: Wasting my money at Pat's and Geno's
