Kahuna Grindz Closes Down

September 3, 2023 By Lisa Grigsby

Anthony Augustus, who with his mother have been running the Hawaiian cuisine food truck Kahuna Grindz for about 2 years.  Today they  announced on their facebook page they will be shutting down the business.

“It is with a deeply emotional heavy heart that Kahuna Grindz is no longer in business. Due to multiple health issues with both owners we just can’t keep business running smoothly anymore.  As tears roll down my face while I’m typing this…We appreciate and loved all the support from everyone. This is the end for now but not forever.”

There had been plans to open a brick and mortar restaurant on Second Street in Xenia, and this to has been cancelled.Augustus graduated from Pennsylvania Culinary Institute in 2001 before working in the restaurant industry for over 20 years. According to his wife’s post on Facebook, “he is now in charge for food at Cedarville College!”

About Lisa Grigsby

Lisa Grigsby is a Special Events Director with over thirty years experience in promotions, event coordination and public relations.

Owning Jokers Comedy Cafe for 20 years taught Lisa to maintain a sense of humor under pressure. She credits Leadership Dayton for exposing her to the amazing assets of the region and Clothes That Work for being her reason she stayed in Dayton. Her proudest accomplishment as a past president of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association was creating Restaurant Week, a twice a year tradition that continues to grow and benefit local charities as well. As a foodie, it's only natural that she continues to promote local restaurateurs with DaytonDining.

As a Dayton Catalyst, her desire to have ONE community calendar and advocate for the amazing assets of the region helped create the vision for the relaunch of DaytonMostMetro, now Dayton 937.com
