I've had Jim's I think...not bad. A friend of mine from DC had them Saturday night as his first ever steak...not a good experience for him.
I personally think that the 3 best places to check out if you're a rookie are:
--Geno's (9th and Passyunk)
--Phillip's (24th and Passyunk)
--Jimmy's All American (Ridge Ave. near the Wissahickon Rail Station)
I had PhilaDeli (5th and South) a few weeks ago...not bad, but poor service.
I am generally a chicken kind of guy, so I'm also a big fan of Ishkabibble's (4th and South).

Amusing story: I once drove from Baltimore to South Street on a Friday night solely for the purpose of getting cheesesteaks from Jim's. I had to pay off a bet I'd made w/ a buddy of mine, you see. Silly me... I thought Green Bay's defense would be able to stop the Vikings on the previous Monday night.
