I’ve been coming here for over 25 years! Excellent food and service everytime. We like to start off with some flaming cheese, a Greek salad, and pita bread followed by the chicken dinner! Make sure to ask for extra brown sauce! To cap off a perfect meal, I highly recommend the custard desserts!!!

I took a chance tonight and after searching online for a new place to eat out, I came across Auburn Cafe in Ecorse. My wife seemed nervous as I did not let her know what I had chose, just that we had not been there before. What a hidden Gem – I would highly recommend you give this place a try. As it was Friday, we were looking for Seafood. (Bonus 1/2 off second Seafood Entre with purchase of another on Friday Evenings). I had the Salmon, My Wife enjoyed the Orange Roughy. Both were cooked to perfection, we didn’t leave any to waste and the portions were generous. We also shared a Greek Salad, and Lemon Potatoes. Impressed with everything. I almost hate to make this recommendation in fear that too many people will find out about this great restaurant in the Ecorse, MI area. A++++ in my book. P.S. Our waitress Audrie exceeded our expectations with some of the best hospitality I’ve experienced – even brought us a surprise dessert. Thank you all again for the great dining experience.
Adding on to my review… my wife & I made it back for the highly recommended Lamb Chops… If I could add on another star, I would. The service was again spot on and the food exceeded our expectations, keep up the great work – we will most certainly be back! (Bonus of Buy 1 Lamb Chop Dinner / Get Second at 1/2 price on Monday & Tuesday after 5… We had left overs which were still delicious the next day).

Not only did the Auburn Café delete my first review, but I’m just so mad and upset still over my experience. I had two hairs in my food and my food was burnt after waiting an hour for it to be delivered. I cant even believe Nicole the manager absentmindedness. We can’t even imagine how anyone enjoys they’re existence here

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 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.

Wow! You don’t have to go downtown to get great Greek food. I really liked the eggplant appetizer, lemon potatoes and grape leaves. It gets really busy here at lunchtime so come when it opens if you can or a little bit after noon. I couldn’t get a parking spot and had to park on the street. It wasn’t a big problem but if you can avoid it, I’d recommend it.

Don’t be like me and take years to give this place a try because it’s incredible. Some of the best Tatziki (get some on the side for the lemon potatoes)i I’ve ever had and the spicy feta dip is amazing too. Not only was the food amazing but the service was stunning. Make sure you ask for Shelia if you go.

So many Mediterranean/Middle Eastern restaurants don’t serve lamb, so when I get a taste for delicious, authentically-seasoned chops, my go-to is Auburn Cafe. Tucked away in an unassuming building in Ecorse, Auburn prepares and serves Greek food thwe way it should be done. We started with melt-in-your mouth saganaki and moved onto the lamb chop lunch special – you get three for lunch and five for dinner. Mine was cooked medium-well; my friend’s was medium-rare. Neither of us had any complaints about the meat, the cukes, tomatoes, and feta cheese slab. Make sure you order the side of lemon potato slices, which are served hot. The service was excellent and the place was clean, and we left already planning our next visit.
