I've been going here for 25+ years. Amazing little gem for those wanting Indonesian/Dutch goodies. Robert is the owner, and he's wonderful, friendly and helpful. He offers a good variety of products such as sambals, bumbu, sweets, krupuk, noodles, and frozen foods. He'll even mail you a package if you prefer to order over the phone. This place has helped keep my Indo stash of goodies stocked and heart happy. Thank you, Robert!

Lovely little shop! I went in looking for tempeh (a miracle protein for people with high cholesterol!) and I went out with so much more! I found some great Indonesian dishes spice mixes and also condiments! There was a great mix of Dutch and Indonesian treats! The inventory was very impressive but most of all, the owner was so kind and hard-working! He has owned the place for 40 years- amazing! I wished that I hadn't wasted so much money buying Tempeh at Whole Foods when I could have been supporting this small business! Oh well, live and learn and shop small businesses like this one! :)

Amazing Dutch cheese and they even have krokettes (frozen). This is our go-to for Dutch food after the Dutch Pastry Shop on Bascom closed a decade ago. Hope the kids keep this place open for all.

I come here for Indonesian food since it's so rare to find a Indo restaurant around here. So authentic especially with the spices. The owner is a sweet and funny elderly man. It's a awesome mini supermarket if you're on the look at for authentic indo ingredients and Dutch snacks.

Great place to find Indonesian and Dutch ingredients. They also have some frozen Indonesian food that tastes great and reminds me of home.

Ori deli has been around since I was a kid. I have a lot of fond memories getting many hard to find Dutch and Indonesian treats my family so loved. I recently went back to find the same owner Mr. Tan still taking pride running this legacy speciality shop. There's wonderful Indonesian spices, krupuk udang(shrimp chips),and my personal favorite, chicken lemper(which I brought frozen to cook at home). Among other things, there's a large variety of Dutch soups, spices, sprinkles and the best variety of Dutch licorice I've come across locally. I'm happy to see this local gem still running, and love their imported selection of items! Businesses like these are ones to support.

I just heard about this place from a friend on Friday, and decided to go on the following Saturday. I felt really happy when I saw the place. It reminded me alot about small stores back home in Indonesia. What's interesting about this place is that the owners are really nice, and they always have food preorders that we can order. I bought their tahu isi, and it tasted amazing. I did not get to take pictures because I was reallg hungry; the food smelled amazing.

I remember shopping at Ori-Deli when Robert had the store in Mountain View near Grant and El Camino back in the 80s. He's got the most amazing selection of Dutch and Indonesian groceries and goodies and the kitchen is open again so you can order some of your favorite staples like nasi goreng and bahmi goreng. At the beginning of the Christmas season the store is overflowing with a lot of Dutch goodies. We are so lucky to have this store nearby in the Bay Area because it's only place that I know of where Dutchmen and Indonesians can get their fix. Robert's getting up there, but he keeps on going, and I'm sure glad that the store is still running and fully stocked. I can't say enough good things about this store and I just ordered my two favorite dishes which is about all he offers now ( nasi and bahmi goreng) and they were outstanding and reasonably priced. I buy a lot of licorice, and chocolate, cookies, and Indonesian cooking items. It's awesome. A lot of Dutch people in my Facebook groups are pretty envious that I'm fortunate enough to have this store within 8 miles of my house!

I absolutely love this store! I've been coming here on and off for the past 20 years. This store specializes in Dutch and Indonesian imported foods which is what I grew up with, both of my parents are Dutch Indonesian. They sell everything from snacks, candies, spices, soups, condiments, frozen savory treats, Dutch souvenirs, to Indonesian food to go. At the moment, the two dishes they are selling to go are Bami (noodles) and Nasi (fried rice). I like to buy my Dutch soups, frites sauce, sambals, and Indo seasonings here. Just recently bought Shanghai kacang, frozen homemade lemper (10 for $30) , pandan essence, and Fruit-tella candy- all good things that bring me back to my childhood. Shelves are well stocked! I feel the assortment of goodies that are on the shelves for sale have gotten better and better over the years. This is a locally owned business and it's so nice to see the same friendly owners still there after so many years. Come check this place out, it's fun and interesting : ) New items in stock all the time
