Frommer's Review

Easier to get to from Old City is this South Street corner joint, which offers cheesesteaks, plus beer, plus excellent Italian hoagies. Jim's has a certain Art Deco charm, with a black-and-white enamel exterior, tile interior, and omnipresent chrome. Containers and ovens take up most of the ground floor. Downstairs is a counter with bar stools along the opposite wall. There's table seating upstairs. Busiest times are Saturdays and Sundays, from 11am on.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
