Who has the best steaks in Philly?

I will be making one more brief cameo in each of these fine cities before years end.
Jim's is certainly the winner for the cheese steak derby.

I know of at least three places that Jim's can't even compare to.

Steve's Prince of Steaks in the northeast, John's Roast Pork in South Philly and Dellasandro's in Manayunk. I know it's a matter of opinion, but these steaks are head and shoulders better than Jim's, which is in itself a far better steak tha Tony Lukes imo.

Steve's has the best cheese fries but the steaks are far from great.

Out of the three they are my least favorite, i only mentioned them first because it was tonight's dinner. John's takes the cake for me.

Correct on the fries, although i go cheese on side bc they dont travel well with cheese on, despite the <5 min drive.

Looking for great wings? Cafe Soho on Cheltenham Ave is THE place, with El Camino Real in NoLibs taking the place spot! Too good.
