Mrs. Agnes (Mary Agnes Gibbs Estremera) was born in Grenada, West Indies, and spent her early years in Trinidad & Tobago, where she honed her skills in Trinidadian cuisine. In the late '60s, she moved to Puerto Rico for a career change and met her husband, Jose "Che" Estremera. By the mid-'70s, the couple settled in Brooklyn, New York, with their eight children.
Known for her incredible cooking, Mrs. Agnes began selling delicious dinners and baked goods to earn extra income. Her mouthwatering dishes, which included favorites like jerk chicken and oxtails, quickly gained popularity throughout the Brooklyn Bed Stuy community, drawing in both locals and celebrities alike.
In 2002, she opened her first restaurant, Agnes Caribbean Kitchen, where she also produced and distributed her renowned Agnes Caribbean Seasoning & Marinade. In 2011, we honored her legacy by reopening as Agnes All Natural Grill in Dayton, Ohio, keeping her dream alive.
Seeing the joyful faces of our customers and hearing their praise for 'Agnes' fills our hearts with warmth, reminding us of our incredible mother. Among her beloved offerings, the menu features brown sugar lemonade, jerk chicken, oxtails, beef patties, coco bread, and a variety of vegetarian food options.
