Founded by Dana Cohen, the restaurant specializes in gourmet macaroni and cheese, but also offers a number of other baked goods and desserts. Macaroni and cheese offerings include Italian, pizza, hot chicken and buffalo chicken styles among others, with most options available in family sizes.

"We use eight different cheeses that blend together to create a delicious, and cheesy comfort food that you are sure to enjoy," reads the restaurant's Facebook page. "Mama D’s Mac N Cheese [also] puts out two choices of specialty Mac N Cheese for the week and takes orders from Monday-Friday for delivery to customers on Sunday."

The restaurant is family owned and will  catering services for parties, corporate events and the like.

"For many years friends would ask me to sell it to them," Cohen wrote about her decision to open the restaurant.

"I would instead gift it, until my sweet hubby suggested it was time to begin selling it since so many people desired to purchase it. Beginning Mama D’s provided a way to get more people to enjoy this delicacy while I could continue to stay home with our children."
