Cheesesteaks are a Philadelphia food scene staple, and it’s not surprising that love for these steak sandwiches has trickled over into New Jersey. You can find really good cheesesteaks in both north and south Jersey, but there’s one spot in Camden and Burlington County that’s made headlines just about everywhere for serving up the best cheesesteaks in the state. Donkey’s Place has a location in Camden, in Medford, and in Mount Holly.
Despite being a “Philly” specialty, many agree that this Jersey steak shop is the best of the best.

One thing you’ll notice right away is that these cheesesteaks are served on poppy seeded kaiser rolls. That’s a break from the usual hoagie roll, but for some reason it just works.
