I tried deKefir 3-4 times and deferred doing a review as I struggle with the rating. I love the wide variety of fresh toppings but not sure I'm a fan of the Kefir itself.
I tried both the parfait on frozen varieties. I appear to be the minority on Yelp but I find there is an odd aftertaste after each scoop of the Kefir. I can't put my finger on it but something is off for me.
I love the granola on the breakfast parfait and the fresh fruit selection is amazing. I enjoyed both the Mango and pomegranate. The parfait is a great healthy breakfast alternative to all the unhealthy downtown core options.
In my experience, the staff are fantastic. Incredibly friendly and very helpful explaining all the different options.
WARNING - It's a little tricky to find. I work in the Financial district / path system (for 17 years) and I couldn't find it. As i read the DeKefir website, it provided directions form various path locations but it said to head toward the "BAC". I kept saying to myself.... WTF is the BAC! Never use acronyms when giving directions - it's so incredibly frustrating. As I know now: BAC = Bay Adelaide Centre. This is probably the newest tower on the PATH so many people are not as familiar with it. I used a life line and called a friend to figure it out.
Here's some better directions: Go outside (skip the path) - Head towards the KPMG building on the corner of Bay and Adelaide streets (across the street from the Trump Tower). Go into the lobby of the KPMG Tower (AKA -The BAC) and take the down escalators - you will directly face DeKefir when you step off.
