‘Get the Pho Out’ Opens in Kettering with Fusion of Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese Cuisine

On January 12, a new culinary destination, Get the Pho Out, officially opened its doors in Kettering, offering a unique blend of Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisine. The restaurant, located at 10 W. Stroop Road in the Castle Hills Shopping Center, occupies the former space of W.G. Grinders, just across from Town & Country.

A Strong Start and Warm Reception

Owner Pratya Kaewkheaw shared his excitement about the grand opening on January 13 through a Facebook post, thanking the community for their support. “We had an amazing first day yesterday,” Kaewkheaw wrote. “Thank you everyone who came out. We’ll be open again today at 11. Get the Pho here and Get the Pho Out!”

Menu Highlights

At Get the Pho Out, guests can enjoy a variety of pho, including options with chicken, beef, meatballs, or shrimp, served with their choice of rice, vermicelli, or glass noodles. The restaurant also offers banh mi, a Vietnamese sandwich served on a croissant with a special sauce crafted by Kaewkheaw’s mother.

For lunch, customers can opt for a combo box featuring an entrée such as fried rice, pad Thai, red curry, Massaman curry, three-flavor shrimp, or three-flavor tofu. The combo includes a side (banh mi, spring roll, or house salad), white rice, soup, and a drink for $12.99.

From Employee to Owner

Kaewkheaw is excited to take the step from restaurant employee to owner, having previously worked in various Thai restaurants in the Dayton region. “I always worked as an employee in the restaurant, but this time I’m stepping up to the owner,” Kaewkheaw said. “I hope the customers will like my food and my restaurant.”

Get the Pho Out is open daily for lunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., with dinner hours from 4:30 to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Currently, the restaurant offers takeout, with delivery services expected to be available soon.
