Donkey's Place Downtown

Man, I'm going to have an unpopular opinion here - but it was just ok food-wise. My favorite part of the meal was my root beer float. You can't go wrong with Stewart's Root Beer and vanilla ice cream, but I wasn't really there for that. The fries were delicious too - plus there were overflow fries in the bag (like Five Guys does). The cheesesteak was good/just OK. My usual (for cheesesteaks) is a steak with provolone, light fried onions. That's what I got. Roll was fresh but too soft (it’s also round- which is their thing- with poppy seeds), cheese and onions were a perfect ratio to meat, but I felt like the meat was just a step up from a Steak-umm in terms of flavor and consistency, which kind of ruined it for me, besides the bread. The sandwich was big though - I only ate half. The at

The service is great but the cheesesteak is overrated. It is INCREDIBLY salty. (We got it with Wiz). We also got the panzerotti and the donkey’s tails with gochujang sauce and the funnel cake fries. The fries were actually the best that I ever tasted but the other foods unfortunately meh. I don’t regret checking it out as I had great things about it. But now that I ticked the box, I don’t see myself coming back anytime soon.

Great find in Mt Holly, NJ. Obviously I love the original in Camden, NJ but had no idea there are a few more. This one is takeout only but has outdoor tables to sit and eat at.these are identical to the Camden location. Fries are great and service is excellent.

As a whole an enjoyable cheesesteak and nice change from a traditional roll. Overall I would place it in my upper middle tier of cheesesteaks but would like to reassess sometime in next few months.

If you’re hunting the real cheesesteak experience, look no further. This local legend has been serving up mouth-watering, perfectly seasoned, juicy steaks and melty cheese for over 80 years, and it shows in every bite. The round poppy seed rolls are fresh, the portions are generous, and the flavor is downright unforgettable. Friendly service, classic vibe, and hands-down the best cheesesteaks around — a must-try for locals and visitors alike. Five stars without hesitation.
