All have advocates and detractors. Why not try all three and decide which one feels right.
This is like trying to find the best beer. They are all good but some seem better.

Browsers for the Mac reviewed:
"Better" is subjective. Safari is the only browser written exclusively for OS X though, and unlike Chrome it was not designed for the sole purpose of harvesting your personal information for the purposes of selling it to anyone willing to pay for it. Chrome is free because the product Google sells is you.
Unlike Chrome, Firefox won't litter a Mac with a plethora of resource-demanding "helpers" and an automatic updating service that operates at a privileged level. Firefox relies on volunteer developers and is far more customizable than Safari.
Those are not the only choices. Use whatever suits your requirements. That may include your desire for privacy or lack thereof, and your willingness to tolerate the degraded performance that will result from using anything other than Safari.
I have found that Chrome is a resource hog on the mac and drains the battery pretty quick. Firefox and Safari are pretty good, and don't hog up the resources as much.
You have found what I have found 🙂
