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.

    We loved the freshness and balance in all the dishes, not to mention the deliciousness! Great suggestions from our gracious and knowledgeable server - lovely service overall. Warm and inviting, lively with a big party but still able to easily converse. Can’t wait to go back and I’m already recommending it to friends.

    I wish I could remember the name of our server because she was absolutely amazing. We were a six top with some complicated dietary restrictions and she really took a lot of time to make sure we knew what each of us could order and she made us feel like we were her top priority. She was the best!!!

    We attended a wine tasting event for the wines of Georgia (the country in the Caucasus, not the state in the US). We enjoyed sampling the wines which were intriguingly different than our usual California and Oregon vintages. We bought a couple of bottles to take home (plus stocking up on Kachka's delicious pelmeni). The wine importer who was hosting the event was a pleasure to talk to; friendly and knowledgeable. The Kachka staff were, as they always are in my experience, courteous and efficient. Altogether it was a very pleasant experience and a good value as well.
