I have experience with:

Reunion ($$) - probably the best
Family Tree Maker for Mac - has bugs (worse than Windows version)
Mac Family Tree - OK but has a learning curve
iFamily for Leopard - older but still works well on Mountain Lion

All will import your gedcom file and I think they all will let you try
before you buy.
