"When co-owner Cortez Johnson purchased and revived this cheesesteak shop with a long-standing history dating back to the 1930s, it may have sparked some controversy, but he has quickly gained notoriety and praise from new and longtime customers. Adding his own flair (their menu now features additional cheesesteak toppings, tasty hoagies, and banana pudding) to this infamous Philly favorite, Jim’s West easily outshines many of the other cheesesteak options in the city." - George Banks-Weston
