Best breakfast around. Staff is friendly and you can't beat the prices. I highly recommend giving this place a try.

I was deciding whether or not to give this place two or three stars...so let's say that it is 2.5 stars! Yeah, the food is cheap and comes with a GENEROUS helping of grease-enough to keep the cardiologists in town very busy from all the clogged arteries. Everytime I eat there, my arteries are coughing and choking. How hard is it to make fries that aren't sopping with grease? Having the right fryer oil temperature is the key. I can wring the grease out of them and use it to slick back my hair..wait, I am bald, so I can use it to put a nice sheen on my head. I usually get a burger or the chili, which is OK, but they should char the burgers a bit more to bring out the flavor. The chili always seems to have an off taste to it-maybe it is the year old hot sauce that I use (which is presented to me and seems like it is a year old) when I eat it. Overall, the food is cheap, plentiful and, at times, tasty. Just make sure your health insurance premium is paid-you might need it. read more

Fast, inexpensive , large portion breakfast sandwiches are the best. They have pancakes and other stuff too. If your cholesterol level is ok and you're hungover it's a perfect spot. Everything is loaded with butter but that's why I visit. Not a place you can eat at everyday and stay healthy and I don't like there coffee is the only reason I gave it 4 stars. Otherwise it's perfect for fast ,delicious breakfast sandwiches and a great price. read more

Another Great Breakfast at Darto's in Bethlehem My wife and I tried Darto's Restaurant for breakfast for the 2nd time. We were there a few months ago. That 1st time was great. Darto's is more of a café than restaurant, small, hidden off the main streets, wonderfully old school, family-owned and operated. In fact the husband and wife owners work the grill. We went on a Tuesday morning, and there were not many patrons inside (I subsequently learned that the place is mobbed on Friday and Saturday mornings, with a line out the door). Our waitress was pleasant and welcoming. You soon get the feel that Darto's is a neighborhood favorite where regulars are recognized. The menu is very different from Billy's Downtown Diner (which we occasionally enjoy). Unlike Billy's there are no unusual creations here; the menu offers standard classic American breakfasts. The prices are surprisingly low. You would think that the portions would be small. But that's the case. My wife ordered fried eggs, with hash browns with onions, and a side of crispy bacon. I repeated my order from our 1st visit: an omelet with ham, American cheese, and onion, on the moist or wet side rather than fluffy, with hash browns with onions, and a side of crispy bacon. Both entrees arrived with buttered toast. Both breakfasts were prepared perfectly. My omelet was again packed with delicious, wonderful diced ham. The ham, onion, and melted cheese were outstanding in the soft egg jacket. Really really good -- I would say the best omelet in the Valley. My wife enjoyed her breakfast too. Toward the end we were totally full. Our waitress was attentive throughout. I was again impressed by the chef's ability to perfectly customize the breakfast to our liking. And once again, to top it off, our bill (before the tip) was an astonishing low $16.62. Unbelievable. Highly recommended. These people put love in their cooking. In addition to tables, Darto's has a counter with stools, like a diner. I think Darto's is a great alternative for a single traveler tired of eating expensive food in high-end venues -- you'll feel at ease in friendly surroundings. read more

Love Dartos breakfast is always amazing. Fast and good vibes. Would definitely recommend anything on the breakfast list. Staff is always friendly and it is a busy place. You never wait long for your food and the only draw back is they need a bigger place. Awesome 10 out of 10 read more

This is like eating breakfast at Grandmas house. Very fresh breakfast and lunches but on the oily side. Prices can't be beat! Small place, simple menu, nice staff but it gets super busy. You need to wait sometimes, it's a locals favorite. read more

I've been coming to this place for years! Still have yet to be disappointed good prices quality food friendly staff. I love their breakfast sandwiches and im sure the lunch is just as good if you're in Bethlehem this is a MUST for breakfast or lunch! read more

Darto's is THE PLACE for breakfast -- best place in Bethlehem. Hand's down, no discussion, Darto's is super. Batman, Superman, the X-men -- they'd all eat at Darto's if they were in town. That kind of super. Darto's meets all the criteria -- the folks at the grill understand the egg. Done just right -- soft but not runny; not overdone; and here's the real kicker -- done the way you order it. My currentl personal fav is the anti-egg breakfast: the SOS -- creamy, flavorful, not too salty -- but the brightest star may be the homefries. REAL POTATOES -- grilled almost as well as Karen Kimber (and boy do I miss Karen) did the homefries at Hack's. I subscribe to the potato as an art form, and Darto's does potatoes right. And here's another thing -- if something isn't quite right, the fast-moving, efficient, and good-humored staff will tell you. (As in -- 'the SOS is a bit runny today -- I'll get it for you, but I know how you like it, and you may want to think about something else this morning.') That is worth the price. Any price ... and Darto's prices are low. I can get out on a Sat AM for $5 and be happy until dinnertime. The pancakes are great, too, as is whatever they call their egg sandwich. An added plus is that the place is small (is 'hole-in-the- wall' a concept?) and old-style funky ... pictures of Yankees and Frank Sinatra and local heros and a mounted copy of the owner's report of a hole-in-one and other memorabilia crowd the walls. Darto's offers a soul-satisfying breakfast. This place is great. Open for lunch, too, and I would bet serious money that it's just as good then, but I'm strictly on the breakfast team. read more

my friend and I halve gone there for about 28 years not no more we loved there ham egg and cheese on a roll then the ham got so thin you couldn't taste it now there is so little egg on it the only thing I taste is the cheese and the roll I rather pay more and get the sandwich the way you made them before I halve to boycott dartos and back to egg mc muffins they are not considered best breakfast place in town anymore read more

The waitstaff are usually rushed, but always good. The food is tasty and consistent. The price is absolutely right. Think of it as "a breakfast dive" and you won't be disappointed. This was my favorite breakfast place when I was five, and now it's my daughter's favorite breakfast place. (It's probably still my favorite, too, truth be told.) Get there early to avoid lines. Oh, and if you go at lunch, skip the fries. read more

so good...I've been living in this area for two years and never gave Darto's a shot, totally my loss. To be honest, I thought it was a shady townie bar for a long time, and clearly I was wrong, it's a little breakfast place, dimly lit, super cozy...portions are huge, food comes out quickly, and it's super cheap. If you want to avoid the wait and hustle of Billy's (which can be a little overwhelming some mornings), this place is a must. The only weird thing is that I'm not sure it's open on on Sunday's...I tried to go in a little past 8am on Sunday and they were closed. read more

I can't say enough about how great this place is. My boyfriend has been going here since he was a kid and now we bring our daughter here. Open for Breakfast and Lunch and on Wednesday and Saturday they offer cream chipped beef. You better get there early on those days if you want some because once its out, its out till the next day they offer it. The food is great, the servers are great. Always have smiles on their faces. Its a very cozy atmosphere. The prices can't be beat! It is soooo cheap, you have to wonder how they make any money. But they do! I recommend them to everyone! The best!!!! read more

Good dinner food. Sucks that it isn't open on Sundays. Parking is tough sometimes so you have to park in the public garage. read more

Darto's Restaurant - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bethlehem, Pennsylvania

My first visit here has been a long time coming. Almost everybody I talked to about this place said good things, with good reason. The food is really good, at a decent price. I ended up spending almost half what I normally would anywhere else for the massive farmer's omelet. When I say it was massive, I do mean massive. On top of that, the atmosphere is snug and cozy. Darto's has been open for about as long as I've been alive, and it looks like it, with modest improvements only as needed. I only have one major complaint, and that is the service. It should not take more than 10 minutes to be waited on while sitting at the bar. The guy who sat down next to me several minutes after I got there got service before me. I'm not sure if it was me, but I felt like I was being given the cold shoulder the entire time I was there. While I enjoyed the food and the price, the service alone makes me hesitant to go back. read more

Love this place! You simply can't beat the prices. Fast, great food, and cozy atmosphere !!

I LOVE DARTO'S!!!!!!!!!!! I don't remember how I found this place but everyday I am thankful I did. The breakfast sandwiches........ !!!! Please do yourself a favor and get any breakfast sandwich on a kaiser roll. My mouth is watering just thinking about it right now. I swear by this place and every person I have ever sent here returns to me with a raving review. I have never been disappointed. Going to Darto's for breakfast sandwiches is one of my most cherished times with my partner. It is so special here. The atmosphere is cozy and you feel at home. I ask anybody that is reading this to please go to Darto's... you will not regret it. read more

Five stars because they are what they say they are. Small place, good and hot food, fast nice service, and big portions. No confusion that's what you get every single time. Cheapest best bargain for breakfast in the continental United States. read more

Food is so good that my 4 year old grandson ate his whole breakfast. The 8 year old granddaughter ate rest of hers today. We are from Washington state and go to Darto's every time we are in town. read more

By far the best breakfast place in Bethlehem. I crave it!!!! Great service excellent food, fast service. Just wonderful:)

Darto's is a small family business in the heart of Bethlehem on New Street. They have great breakfast foods, and lunches. They are only open til 2pm and shut the grill down between 1:15 and 1:30 pm. Their Pork Roll and Cheese are fantastic with onion, they have great meatball sandwiches, hamburgers, blt's and of course fries and pierogies. The amount of food you get for the price is fantastic. Extremely reasonable for someone who has to stick to a budget. read more

I grew up coming here. Great service, great food, and great prices. It's crowded but cozy and so worth the wait if there's a line.

SATURDAY Breakfast is excellent!!! Small place but the wait is worth it to ppl who know where a good food in Bethlehem is at in A.M. Banana pancakes!! read more

A suggestion from our son brought us to Dartos for breakfast,,,,great food,prices and service,,,,went back a second time,,,,really consistent,,,,going back for our third breakfast tomorrow,,,thinking this is now on our regular haunt list,,can't beat it anywhere in the valley! read more

I was hesitant to write a review bc I just want to keep this place all to myself. It is my absolute, absolute favorite little place in the lehigh valley. My husband and I stumbled across this hidden gem about a year ago and have made it our Saturday morning tradition ever since. The food is amazing and makes you feel all warm inside, and so does the environment. They really make you feel like family here. One of my favorite aspects of Dartos is that you see the same faces there nearly every week, and everyone is addressed on a first name basis. It really has its regulars. My husband and I are originally from a very small country town so this has been an absolute delight as it reminds us so much of home. I'm honored to say that we have become regulars here and, when it's time to order, we are simply asked, "the usual?" They are generous with their portion sizes and prices, and definitely enjoy cooking with butter (which is fine by me, "butter makes everything better!"). It really is a great place to go if you're looking for some home-style comfort food. Oh and one more thing, get the chocolate milk. It's heavenly! And don't just ask for a large, go with the extra large. You will not be disappointed!! read more

I have looked at a bunch of the reviews here, and have to say that mine would be a little bit from each.... It will be nice to have another breakfast place to go to, other than Billy's. I have eaten here twice so far, and will go back, but I will be careful of when I go (to avoid lines) and careful of what I pick (to avoid grease and bad taste). The breakfast I had was good and yes the potatoes were real, and really greasy. I had a steak sandwich with onions and sauce, which was one of the plainest sandwiches ever. Had I not been incredibly hungry, it would have been well below average. The service at the bar (both times) was fine, as not many people were in there either time. Like one guy below says, it is cheap but things add up. For example, my $3.75 steak sandwich added up to $5 with the sauce/onions. I have had a hundred steak sandwiches in my life, and never had to pay for fried onions. Sauce, maybe.... but the sauce wasn't even any good! Anyway, what it boils down to is that the place is OK....I would give it 2 stars if the description wasn't "Meh..." It's a little better than 'Meh'. read more

This place is absolutely wonderful for breakfast...our favorite breakfast place. It is very inexpensive, simple and wonderfully prepared. It is old and outdated, but it works...it is all wood and very cozy and comfortable and the wait staff will remember you even after you have only been there once. Everyone is friendly, food comes quickly and you are always satisfied...especially when you get the bill. It's the perfect place to come with the family or as a couple or even alone to sit at the bar. I can't say enough good about this place. Sometimes there is a wait but since they are so efficient even with long lines you are seated relatively quickly. I love Darto's!!! read more

First, the food is decent. Nothing special. There are dozens of restaurants near Darto's that offer similar quality meals. It's located close to the bus station. So there is no need for me to describe the type of customers who frequent this place. I stopped in one day with my girlfriend for breakfast. We were the only ones sitting there at that time. There were 3 waitresses on duty. No one came to our table to offer us coffee and a menu. We sat there for 15 minutes waiting. The only reason why we waited so long is that we are in love and sat there holding hands and talking. The waitresses and cook/owner are kind of miserable and have attitudes. We finally walked out. No one there seemed to care that we did. I will never return. Go to The Mayflower or Billy's Diner instead. They make you feel special and serve you instantly. Plus they have great food. read more

Very good place for breakfast, potatoes fried just right.only issue is tough parking.

Always forget about this place and haven't been in a while but that won't happen again. Love everything- service was great, portions were big and prices more than reasonable. Highly recommend if you want good simple homemade diner food! read more

Great, cheap food! The place is very small and has limited hours but when we are able to get there, the food is really good. There can sometimes be a wait for a table because of the small size but once you are seated, the service is good and the food arrives quickly. Two people can get a full breakfast and spend around $12.00! Highly recommend! read more

Great food Great Prices Great STaff and the owners treat you like family. The only con: THE HOURS STINK~! But it works for them, I just always take lunch late :( But keep up the great service Dartos! read more

My mother and I went to get a nice breakfast. We were expecting to get food right away considering Darto's is "a great hole in the wall". What we found was that all the employees were going to do was ignore us and talk about ketchup. We didn't even get a greeting. We were waiting for about 10 minutes before we gave up and left. read more
