Description and history

Married co-owners Mariah and Thomas Pisha-Duffly opened Oma's Takeaway in April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, when their first restaurant Gado Gado was closed. The pop-up has been described as "Asian stoner food". Later in 2020, Oma's relocated to the former Whiskey Soda Lounge space in southeast Portland's Richmond neighborhood,[1] serving barbecue platters inspired by American, Chinese, and Southeast Asian (including Indonesian and Malaysian) cuisine. The restaurant was inspired by Thomas' Indonesia-born grandmother, whom he called Oma.[2][3][4]

The restaurant closed in January 2021,[5] then reopened as Oma's Hideaway on May 22.[6] Oma's previewed the updated menu during a collaborative 420 celebration and fundraising event benefitting Last Prisoner Project.[2] Upon reopening, Oma's served food inspired by Southeast Asian night markets such as noodles, char siu, and Chinese and Malaysian snacks.[7]

Reception

Oma's Hideaway was included in Eater's 2023 list of the 19 "most funnest, most wildest, most unbelievably extra" restaurants in the United States.[8]
