🤣. Curious tho. Before making that cheesesteak were you watching cheesesteak video's or in the past on a regular ? Cause that will be the reason why you would see cheesesteak video recommendation pop ups. But if you didn't do any of what I just mentioned... Yeah... Close your laptop.

Jim’s is touristy and overpriced BUT, they do make a good cheesesteak, at least better than the other touristy spots. The thing is in Philly you can get a really good cheesesteak almost anywhere, so places like Jim’s, Pats, Genos, etc. aren’t much of a draw to locals unless you’re hammered late night and need sustenances.
It is a poor man's roast beef sandwich. Libre earles always got to promote peasant food. Like smash burgers. Which were made in the Depression. So was this. And pizza. Just cheese and bread. A snack.
Jim's always been one of my favorites, definitely the best of the "tourist spots". For the next level you need to hit John's Roast Pork, Phillip's, Dalessandro’s. No such thing as the best in Philly. Theres a thousand little pizza joints that sling amazing steaks you'll never hear about
Why you'd want to eat synthetic cheeze puke on a steak sandwich is beyond me. As a native Chicagoan, I'll take the cheeseless Italian Beef sandwich any day! Cheese--real cheese--belongs on a pizza.
I went here over 10 years ago when a friend from Philly introduced me to cheese steaks. I was totally blown away. to this day I've never had one better and I remember this place like it was yesterday. I'm glad I don't live in Philly because I'd eat here every day and die of a heart attack lol
did a day trip to philly and stopped here. i'd never had a philly cheesesteak before and wasn't that excited by the concept, but after having my first one from this place....oh my god i haven't been able to stop thinking about it and it's been like 3 years. super good
What a punk treating Uncle Phil like that. Like Phil didn't know a good cheesestake because of who he became. Being a man who knows a good cheese steak wasn't something he was trying to be! It was something he was!Phil was running the same cheesestake race, and jumping the same cheesestake hurdles as him, so why was he tripping him up? Will claimed they needed to stick together, but he didn't even know what that meant. If you ask me, Will was the real sellout. 😤
I remember my pops bringing me to Philly years back. Grew up in Toronto Canada eating cheesesteaks and always wanted to try the OG. We lined up around the block at Jim’s and man was it worth it. Still remember watching them cook it and eating it upstairs with the grease seeping thru the wrapping paper.
Johns is the best Jim's is just as touristy as Pats and Geno's. Pages like Food Insider don't know a damn thing about food from Philly. Most of it's correspondents are kiddies, who dont know their asses from a hole in the ground. JOHNS JOHNS JOHNS.
On tour with THE SIMPLETONS back in '96. We were playing The Middle East Cafe, and that afternoon we went to Jim's. I'll never forget that, and long to go back. Love Philly and the folks.
@liquid sword Gotta love how people like you become dramatic (while trying to claim you're not) because some stranger drops a random comment on youtube about the host in some food video.
I had always known cheese steak as being made with provolone until Potbelly's came out with a limited time cheese steak with Cheez Wiz. That was the best sandwich I've ever had. I used to get one about once a week until they sadly stopped serving it.
I was expecting the whiz thing to start a war in the comments, surprised that no one touched on it. I am a whizwit guy but I hear a lot of back and forth about the right cheese for a Philly. But we can agree on one thing, Steves Prince of steaks is also my favorite
That’s what Philly DOES!!!!! And even though I am in AZ now, I was born on the east coast and went to university in Philly and lived on South Broad! And WaWa is one of the best and most convenient small stores in the country. Think if you went to a shore stop (you wouldn’t know about that if ur not from the east) or a small gas station.... but nearly everything is GREAT!
Im honestly tired of some folks dictating how if dont get ur food a certain way then its not "authentic". Unless they're paying for it, you can get ur cheesesteak however you want.
Seriously, no one is mentioning Johns Roast pork, literally the most amazing Philly Cheesesteak ever... I will drive from NYC to Philly just for a sandwich!
I love Jim's, shame they burned down but now they're rebuilding and expanding! I love going there when I rarely go into Philly, there's not really a best, I think, but they're my favorite. Whiz, provolone and fried onions
I have created what will be called the Seward Style Cheese Steak, everyone who has one always say WOW at the first bite and it is a very favorable sandwich. It is more complex but the taste is phenomenal. We make dozens a day with a small population. When this pandemic is done and we fill up again with cruise ships and tourists watch out, it will be legendary.
Seward ,Alaska,yes? Been there, it's cool. Seward is too close to the word sewer, trash collects from rain and floats down into the sewer at the street corner, ain't that right? Next time say, "Lowell Point" instead.
Went there a couple of years ago when I went on an east coast baseball trip with my dad and brother. It was fantastic! Whiz all the way! On another note Phillies ball park food is criminally underrated.
I do mine here in Alaska, sliced rib eye steak marinated for 12 hrs in the refrigerator, carmelized onions, sautas mushrooms, garlic bread buns,Pepper Jack cheese sauce, with peppers. It has great flavor and it is the most popular sandwich in Seward.
I was in the Philadelphia area about 15 years ago on business and decided to try a Philli cheese steak to see what the big deal was. I don’t know if I was starving or what but I gotta say, the hype is real.
If you live in a major city in America, you can get a cheesesteak. Because of the internet non Philly cooks are now more educated on the details so it’s possible to get a decent clone or even a very good clone
Im from philly lived here my whole life (24 years and counting) and Ive been here before tried all the “famous” cheesesteak places Geno’s, Pats, and here, but non compared to Delassandro’s Cheesesteaks they are by far one of the best in Philly also another would be Max’s Steaks highly recommend both, thank me later :) also pro tip if your taking them to go for later def dont wait more than 5-10 min before eating because they will get soggy and fast! always eat them asap trust me lol
I was recently there visiting from El Paso TX, and i was blown away. I had two cheesesteak sandwiches with all the available cheese and I wish I could've had more! It was delicious and will go back just to have an original cheesesteak sandwich or sandwiches....lol!
If the place in Texas has bread similar to the one in Philly it should be good enough overall. Making a good enough cheesesteak is not rocket science. It’s not that hard to do
GUYS IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW: This place caught fire a year or two ago but has since been TOTALLY RENOVATED and it is just as good (food) but the location is much nicer now! Way better lighting too which is nice
" Generally the cheese of choice is Cheese Whiz, the Kraft processed cheese we ALL know and love" 25 second later- "Im kinda skeptical about processed cheese on my sandwich, because this Cheese whiz thing is new to me"
I miss Philly! Jim's, Geno's Pat's and all the Mom and Pop pizza places that made those big, fat cheese or pizza streaks in South Jersey! The closest thing we have in the SW Desert is a Jersey Mike's #17. It does the trick, but I'd kill for an Amoroso's roll!
I’m from New Mexico and we have one good cheesesteak place (they’re from Philly and have the place decorated with local stuff) but I’m planning on flying out to catch a Phillies game in April and I was planning on getting Jim’s. This video definitely made up my mind!
In my fat ass opinion Jim’s is alright but nothing special. If you want. REAL cheesesteak then hit up, max’s, phillips, dellesandros or johns roast pork.
One of my best friends from college lives there, I live in Kent. I’ve had Jim’s and several other places. Jim’s is good but the best I have had. Spring Garden pizza, and any place in reading terminal is better.
Jim’s is great , I love it there but there are so many places in and around Philly to get a really good cheesesteak lots of little mom and pop places I love checking out random corner stores that have hoagies and cheesesteaks as there are so many in the area. Not taking anything away from Jim’s because they are delicious!
Yo Roxborough fam I go to Barry’s just a few blocks over which I think is just as good, plus they aren’t cash only which makes it easier for me. I believe Barry was part of Dalessandros and split off iirc.
Jim’s is like maybe top ten, Chubbys across from Dalessandro’s is solid as well. I’m a Max’s guy because I lived on Northside but man Dalessandros is worth the trip
@@jackhovatter Chubbys is awesome for sure, plus there's never a huge line. The fact that they even have a parking lot is huge. You should check out Mamas. Its a pizza shop halfway between the Chilis on City Ave and Manayunk, but their steaks are a hidden gem.
My husband is from Philly, I'm from Jersey. Definitely need to add Philly pretzel in the list of favs. Eagles, Philly pretzel and a great Philly cheesesteak lol
He JUST SAID.. "I'm more proud of my local clientele...." And the next shot you see.. is some bumkins from who knows where buying there stuff, talking about T-shirts and crap"...! Priceless!
The hype is real! We came from jersey tried both the original with wiz and I also tried the chicken cheesesteak with sharp provolone and were the best cheesesteaks I’ve had in my life hands 🙌🏼 down also fyi the line is huge so if u go to the bar right across u can still order a Jim’s steak top priority so u don’t have to make the line 🤗
Will Smith once said in The Fresh Prince: 'if the bag isn't soaked with grease and the sandwich isn't dripping grease it's not a philly cheesesteak'

The guy at the end said he's been coming since 1967 but I thought they opened in 1976...
I noticed that as well lol
Must of got the 2 numbers mixed up by being nervous for the camera. I mean I know I would mess something up lol
Jim’s and “quintessential” don’t belong in the same sentence. Top 3 in Philly are:
Dalessandro’s
Max’s
Mama’s
Dalessandro's is the best!
MAXS🥲🙃
Exactly
Jim’s is like maybe top ten, Chubbys across from Dalessandro’s is solid as well. I’m a Max’s guy because I lived on Northside but man Dalessandros is worth the trip
@@jackhovatter Chubbys is awesome for sure, plus there's never a huge line. The fact that they even have a parking lot is huge. You should check out Mamas. Its a pizza shop halfway between the Chilis on City Ave and Manayunk, but their steaks are a hidden gem.
My husband is from Philly, I'm from Jersey. Definitely need to add Philly pretzel in the list of favs. Eagles, Philly pretzel and a great Philly cheesesteak lol
He JUST SAID.. "I'm more proud of my local clientele...."
And the next shot you see.. is some bumkins from who knows where buying there stuff, talking about T-shirts and crap"...! Priceless!
Meh, I'd have to disagree. At least John’s Roast Pork doesn't use cheese whiz!
John's roast pork is amazing and WAY better then Jim's.
Its all a out the sharp prov baby
I like cheez whiz
@@jaynelson9543 Yeah. People that dont like it on cheesesteaks dont like real cheesesteaks.
i came to love cheese wiz actually lol used to like provolone more
Lived in south jerz for almost 8 years. Hands down, THE BEST CHEESESTEAK EVER!
"I mean I feel like I'm gonna get the t-shirts and strap em on!"
Jim’s is the best! Always headed there after concerts at The Troc or TLA!
the role helps keep the sandwich together so well
The hype is real! We came from jersey tried both the original with wiz and I also tried the chicken cheesesteak with sharp provolone and were the best cheesesteaks I’ve had in my life hands 🙌🏼 down also fyi the line is huge so if u go to the bar right across u can still order a Jim’s steak top priority so u don’t have to make the line 🤗
3:55 She’ll be here all week folks
I cannot stop watching these video from Japan!
Her - “babe, what do you love most about me?”
Me - 02:32
😂😂
OMG it looks bomb with all that melted cheese 🧀 and 🧅 😋😫
Jim's is LEGENDARY, accept no substitutes.
I know the wiz is traditional. But I'll be honest I prefer provolone! Shhhhh don't tell the food police!
Me too.
Jim’s is my favorite.
It's definitely good - but like all cheese steaks - you get tired of it after a few bites and massive food coma
Jim’s is top notch. I swing through and grab one whenever I’m up the way 😋
It burnt down about a year ago
Those burgers look really good! I might even take one of those over a Big Mac!
ITS NOT A BURGER ITS A CHEESESTEAK!
hay woods looks like they need pickles and mustard tho, maybe some thousand island and chiles, and then maybe it could compete with in n out
@@GeneticXIV No! All you are suposed to put on a cheesesteak is beef and cheese and onions and thats it. Did you ever have a cheesesteak before?
hay woods have you ever had in n out burger before? It’s the best burger in the country
@@GeneticXIV No. We have 5 guys and they are super good. I kind of want one now.
Who the hell is Demzel Washington? 3:18
Now this is what I call Originality. Hope to visit Philly soon
I’m from Philly and when on South Street I’ll go to Jims or Ishkabible’s
Dallas Foodie Jawn - you’re from Philly but your name is Dallas? Must have had a rough childhood.
Definitely ishkabibbles.... so good
Andrew Choo it’s not my real name, smart guy.
@@micchiccos3511 wow Ur name is Dallas omg
When will people realize that there is a place for processed cheese?
In Europe it's illegal to call this stuff cheese
Ok what’s your point lol
Kexmonster why?
@@destinixshakur well cause it's literally not cheese lol
@@battleclan who cares about Europe though
Went there all the way from London UK and it did not disappoint!
234: I fell in love with her the way shes talks about this steak.. and I'm a vegetarian lols
Jim’s Steaks are too small. They’re like 15%+ smaller than most other shops.
