My first impression was how do I order a gyro sandwich. Couldn't find it on the menu board. That could be my problem as it is our first visit. But there was a picture advertisement on the wall so I said I want that. End of problem. But it came with certain items and extra choices cost $0.50 each. That's just silly. My second impression was of the fresh ingredients prepared right in front of me. Everything was fresh and tasted good. The bread and gyro meat are key to the sandwich, both were delicious. Lots of lettuce and a good tzatziki sauce were givens but I chose a few other options. Not sure when or if I exceeded my allotment but if I did it was $0.50 extra. There were 4 choices for sauces, max two (really). My wife had the lemon chicken soup and loved it. An excellent bowl of one of her favorites. She also had roasted cauliflower, proving once again there is no accounting for taste. But she loved it and would have it again. She also enjoyed the baklava tremendously. Would liked to have a side of falafel but that didn't appear to be an option. Staff were helpful and the space was beautiful. Nice place to enjoy a meal or have delivered from. Definitely would dine here again when visiting Bend. read more

Haven't been here since they first opened but my husband recently attended a veteran event that was catered by Kefi and so we decided to try it out again since he said it was really good there. I was pleasantly surprised they used raw garbanzos for their falafel as compared to the cooked smashed garbanzos they used previously!!! So much better. I will come a lot more often now. And sauces were super flavorful. Bo's used to be my fav but their sauce flavors have gotten watered down. Kefi's sauces were Bomb! My new favorite over Bo's now read more

My wife had discovered a new restaurant for us across from Target on Hwy 97 in Bend. Little did we know Kefi's has been in this location since Covid back in 2020. We both tried the build your own bowl. You get brown or Jasmin rice as your base. One protein, four toppings and two sauces. My wife and I had the falafel as our protein. She had the spring mix, grape tomatoes, pickled onions, and roasted cauliflower. I had the spring mix, roasted cauliflower, crunchin cabbage, and marinated golden beets. All bowls come with two small pieces of warm pita. Your bowl come in take out style cardboard. It's a pretty large vessel and they do not skimp on your order. I'm looking forward to trying there chicken bowl next time out. read more

I love this place. It's six hours from my home and I'd love to stop in every time I'm coming through. I get the Athena and it's always perfect. The baklava is homemade and delicious. I love that. They have healthy drinks as well. read more

Great concept, lovely and friendly staff, and fresh and delicious food. I like the numerous combinations you can create with all of the different toppings and sides. Casual, clean, and an easy go-to in the area if you are looking to be a bit healthier. read more

Kefi is consistently great! I love all of the different options they have for their bowls. For protein, I typically go for the gyro meat, but decided to switch it up and get the chicken tonight. Wow!! So flavorful and juicy! Also, if you like spicy... go for the Honey Harrissa sauce. It's soooo good! Thanks for always providing great meals!! read more

Nick, Nick, Nick! Have you personally been in your store to watch the night crew. They're going to break you. The (cold) lamb was rubbery and they heaped 3 times the normal amount on my pita. The rest of the topping were also so out of balance and huge in portion, the little gal trying to roll it up, couldn't. The Tzatziki sauce was also slathered on, oozing everywhere and making the pita soggy, so that it the poor pita exploded and tore apart from the weight and size of the ingredients and the ocean of sauce on it. Generous is nice, but this was ridiculous. I had to dump it into a bowl and eat my hand-held sandwich with a fork. They need training.on portion control. I know you have the knowledge, so show them. MORE is not always better and in This case, I couldn't eat my favorite sandwich! PS: They also squeezed a huge blob of the pinkish sauce on top of the tzatziki(without asking), ruining my favorite part of the sando, the tzatziki sauce! You gotta train these kids or they'll portion you right out of business. Good luck! read more

Very very good - we were looking for a different twist for dinner and this for the bill- I mean this in a positive way but it is like chipotle - but with a tons more fresh choices and friendlier staff- we had a salad bowl w everything from marinated Garbanzos to pickled zucchini - marinated chicken was great and plentiful - had great unusual drinks like watermelon w mint - would love to know the nutrition info on all the drinks which are all a bit unique - cucumber etc Looks like their website has them with coke products which im glad that branched out and have what appear to be healthier options - website drinks don't match the restaurant- that's a positive!! read more

Just go! Don't hem and ha...just go! So good! Food excellent, service slexcellent, atmosphere excellent.

Quick stop after a long 6+ hour drive to Bend. I ordered a light meal with the lemon rice soup and a side of fries. Soup was perfect for a rainy afternoon, hot and delicious! It had great flavors and quality ingredients. The fries were also good! The service was super friendly, kind and quick! Nice and comfortable dining room for a "fast food" venue. Can't wait to try more on their menu. Everything sounds so delicious. Would definitely come back here again! read more

My wife's favorite restaurant of all time was a Mediterranean restaurant where she grew up and she has never found one quite like it. That is, until we tried Kefi. She got her usual falafel sandwich with the Greek fries and I had the Nick sandwich with regular fries. The ingredients tasted so fresh and the sauces were amazing! The staff was really friendly too which is always a plus and the restaurant itself was clean and bright with indoor and outdoor seating. read more

This is a regular stop for us and I always get the same thing - except I didn't get tomatoes as a topping this time. Only difference. They skimped on everything. The falafel were hard as rocks and tasted like they had been cooked twice. Not worth our hard earned money to pay $14.50/bowl. Really disappointed. read more

Kefi Fast Fresh Mediterranean - Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Excellent fast casual concept i've been wanting to try for a while! Should have visited sooner!!! I got their falafel bowl which was amazing! Their falafel is soft, made fresh, hand rolled right in store and has the perfect balance of spice and saltiness...crunch etc. Their feta fries were amazing as well with plenty of cheese and portions. They drop their fries last minute so they're fresh for the customer. Seasoned perfectly and come with an assorted of sauces to go with it! The staff were super friendly and courteous. Little bit of a wait around lunch time but never more than 30 minutes. If you're in a pinch make sure to put your order in ahead of time during these busier hours. Everything is made from scratch so don't expect fast food times! read more

Restaurant was very clean. Welcomed as soon as we entered. Great selection of food. Food is reasonably priced and very tasty. Only thing I didn't like was the beverage selection. It's some organic brand and was very sugary. They do have cans of soda you can buy. read more

Kefi is like a Greek Chipotle with better customer service than the fast food locations I'm used to. Walk down the line and pick what type of meals you want to be assembled. I got a Greek Salad (because that's what I'm always craving) with Greek Dressing and Lemon Tahini. The steak was overcooked, and the Baklava I ordered for dessert was stale. I couldn't finish either, but it was more or less what I expected. Wouldn't come back but really appreciated the fantastic customer service here. read more

The food is fresh, tasty, and large portioned. The build it yourself options are ALL delicious, and there are many to choose from.

What a find! Fast food at a much higher level than most places!!! My husband had "Athena" + spanakopita. I'm GF -no problem including the gyro meat! Many of the items were compatible with dietary restrictions. I had a salad bowl- gyro style. Many choices. Staff were knowledgeable & helpful. Facility was clean and well appointed. Inside and out door seating available. read more

We enjoyed our bowl here, lots of fresh, healthy, and tasty food. Service was very fast and friendly. The portions are large enough that I had enough leftover for another meal. read more

Great Mediterranean food! The staff were super nice and friendly and prepared our large order in no time! The fries are a stand out and all the gyro ingredients tasted fresh read more

Apparently, demanding great Greek food in Bend was too much. So Zeus punished and sent me to Kefi. Where, for some reason, food served Chipotle-style managed nearly five (4.6; 4.7) stars on here and Google Maps. But who'd be clueless enough to head to Chipotle for authentic, mind-blowing Mexican cuisine? I'd been used to independent Mediterranean restaurants full of personality. But, here, I immediately got (figuratively) slapped in the face with a disorienting menu and forgettable branding. By promoting "fast," prepared ingredients were left out, ready-to-serve--or ready to be stale. The brown rice was barely warm. (Also, just warm) gyros pieces already carved before business opening. Flat tzatziki. Watery humus. A couple little slices of thin, reheated end-of-life pita. And everything combined into one bowl (except bread) meant my lunch became cold within minutes and tasted like nothing. How was it that this fast-food equivalency got such high praises in THIS city--a magnet to travelers who'd likely have experienced divine Mediterranean/Greek meals elsewhere? read more

I just moved to town. I was craving Cava or Luna Grill from San Diego. Kefi Fast Fresh is exactly what I needed! Healthy, delicious and super friendly staff. I will be a regular! read more

Really good quality food but it's $19 for a gyro with fries and a drink lol. And the gyro is pretty small read more

My neighbor has been raving about Kefi since they opened so we finally stopped by. I'm impressed how clean and open the restaurant is. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The staff were very friendly and helpful also. So far, the highly recommended Mediterranean places in town were disappointing so my my expectations were pretty low. I have to say their gyro is the closest to the traditional gyro/shawarma I have had in Bend so far. For those that are wondering, FRIES is traditionally added into the sandwich. I thought it was pretty good and it was huge. The hubby's salad bowl was also good but some of the beef kabob pieces were chewy. I liked their baklava as well. It's not overly sweet. Their prices are very affordable. We are looking forward to coming back and trying their other menu options. read more

This is a great concept, like chipotle for Mediterranean food. At first I didn't think the portion was much for the $13 price tag but I started to get full towards the end so I can't complain too much! The only annoying part is that they limit veggies to 4 choices or .50 for each additional, when it should be unlimited for the price, veggies are cheap. You are also limited to 2 sauces, and all 4 sounded delicious so I wish there was the option for a little of each. Overall this is a good healthy fast option, would return! read more

This place is amazing! Went there for the first time Labor Day weekend and the people were so friendly, and the food was delicious!! Love how almost their entire menu is gluten free and as someone with multiple food intolerances, I could get almost everything on the menu. They even had gluten free chocolate chip cookies, which we went back and got a few more during our trip lol. They were the best!! Totally will be coming here again on our next visit to Bend. read more

I'm a little late for this particular bandwagon. Kefi is a fast, assembly-line style restaurant. Pick your base, pick your protein, pick your toppings, etc. Many of the usual Mediterranean food suspects are available, which means you can build a vegetarian meal fairly easily. I went with the rice-greens base, which I think was a mistake. Should have gone with a wrap maybe. - Rice- greens base: a bit heavy on the rice, light on the greens, basically filler. - Falafel: kind of dry and a little bland. - Toppings: the four I chose were good but not super good. - Sauces: tzatziki & tahini. Much like the toppings, good, not great. - Pita: two small pieces come with the meal. Not very good. - Dolmades: an extra side, these are pretty tasty. Filled with rice. - Baklava: Now we're talking. The star of the meal. Overall, A-OK, but no more than 3-stars good. Prices are in line with the norm today. The shopping plaza they're in isn't OK - the line for Chick-fil-A often chokes the parking lot. (I will choose Kefi over C-f-A every time.) read more

Tasty and fast little Mediterranean place. Great atmosphere, fresh ingredients and nice staff, food priced appropriately. ONE small improvement would be ease of ordering, the menus are on larger monitors that you have to crane your next to see along with a dozen scattered pictures of items. Solid 4/5 with fresh gyro meat and decent prepackaged pita bread. read more

First time here. It reminds me of a Mediterranean chipotle. The food was good, the staff friendly. Big portions for the bowls. I liked the variety of proteins and the veggies. The sauces were good also. read more

This place has forgotten the sauce on my gyro multiple times, note to owner: no one wants to eat a dry gyro, thank you.

Super healthy and yummy. The red hot sauce is great! Baklava also big and delicious.
