Everything was delicious! I was really craving saganaki and a gyro, so we decided to try this place out since we've been told by many people how great it is. It did not disappoint! The saganaki had a perfect crispness around the entire block of it yet it will nice and melty on the inside. They use the real cheese, too! We also tried the 3 dip sampler. All 3 dips are homemade. The tzatziki one was spicy, but the spicy feta dip was not. It had to be the garlic. We loved it, though. The gyro meat was great. I opted to get a salad instead of the potatoes and it was huge! My husband stuck to the potatoes and I cannot say enough good things about them. They were so lemony and tasty. The waitress so friendly. She really delivered the food promptly, too. She kept the pita bread coming also! We will absolutely be back.

As always, Auburn Cafe comes through. We did the couples dinner, which is an absolute ton of food. Two entrees, 2 soups, Greek salad, bottle of wine, flaming cheese, lemon potatoes, 2 coffees and 2 desserts...all of $99!

The service was fast and friendly. I went with a regular so we were greeted like family. I ordered the rice bowl with chicken and lamb. It was delicious. Ambiance was a darker and more intimate vibe. It was casual with the multiple seats by the bar or to the side. It had a brick interior and definitely felt like a more lived in, order establishment. Be careful with the brown sauce. Too much brown sauce will over power the meal!

The Brown Sauce !! Almost every restaurant I visit has its unique dish or accoutrement that makes it memorable. On this visit to Downtown Ecorse, I stopped into a well-known local Greek Eatery, the Auburn Cafe. I was in the mood for something simple and fast since I was famished. The interior brings you back a few decades, but don't let the lack of a modern touch fool you, they make great food here. Once I was seated, my server recommended something that I haven't had in years, a traditional Greek Soup called Avgolemono, which is a Lemon Rice Soup. If you have travelled or dined on the cuisines such as Greek, Arab, Sephardic Jewish, Turkish, Balkan and Jewish-Italian then you that Avgolemono is a family of sauces and soups made with egg yolk and lemon juice mixed with broth, heated until they thicken. The Auburn does a great take on this dish. Next was an old favourite, Pork Souvlaki or Pork Kabob. The grilled, marinated and tender pork was very good. My server before my meal came out told me that I should the 'Brown Sauce'. She was right as it did add some complexity and flavour to my meal. I honestly didn't;t know what to expect when trying Greek Cuisine in the Detroit area, but I can say that Auburn Cafe keeps it real. if you're looking for a great greek meal and experience, give them a shot.
