Prior to operating as a food truck the last two years, Agnes All Natural Grill operated a restaurant that launched in 2012 on North Keowee Street in Dayton, then moved downtown and operated briefly in the lower level of the PNC Center at 6 N. Main St. in downtown Dayton. It is owned by Jose Estremera.

The Agnes All Natural Grill food truck is gearing up to serve customers starting in mid-April at West Third and Broadway streets behind the Wright-Patt Credit Union, Sims said.
