Price: Expensive
• Indonesian / Malaysian • Southeast Portland
Booked 18 times today
Oma's Hideaway is a vibrant, maximalist restaurant inspired by the life and spirit of Chef Thomas Pisha Duffly's grandmother, Kiong Tien “Tina” Vandenberg. Her ability to adapt, to make the most out of limited resources, and to stay creative while projecting warmth and brightness is the guiding force behind Oma’s Hideaway.Born during the pandemic as a pop-up in the Gado Gado parking lot, Oma’s became a permanent beacon of iridescent light in Portland’s Richmond neighborhood in 2021. The menu draws from Tina’s life story, taking influence from the craveable, soul-satisfying hawker food of Singapore and Malaysia and “turning up the volume” with exaggerated yet balanced flavors in Chef Tom’s signature style. Oma’s serves dinner accompanied by a seasonal list of hand-crafted cocktails and zero-proof drinks.

    From the moment we walked in the door we were received with enthusiasm and were attended to incredibly well throughout the night. My girlfriend has an orange allergy and our server and bartender took great care to make sure she was taken care of. The bartender used a toothpick with a wooden orange on it to garnish my drink which was a total accident and was so silly and we all giggled about it throughout the night. The food was INCREDIBLE, the flavor profiles and combinations were unlike anything we’ve had. The quality of the ingredients was 10/10 and the food was definitely made with love. I’d come back anytime.
