I am currently using TeXShop on 10.3 and have had no problems with 
it.  It's freely available at 
http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/texshop.html.  The installation 
is mostly straightforward, though it does require several steps. 
it's also worth noting that this is a pdflatex-based distribution, so 
it produces PDFs by default instead of PostScript and DVI.  (Though 
the formats can be converted)

You may also wish to look at this site: 
http://www.esm.psu.edu/mac-tex/ which has an overview of several TeX 
distributions are available for Mac OS X.
