Grenadian is the word for a person from Grenada, and also the adjective for things from that country. You can say a Grenadian (the person) or Grenadian food, Grenadian music. Grenada is the small Caribbean island country — main island plus some of the — with capital St. George's. English is used there, and it is in the British Commonwealth. In 1983 the United States sent soldiers after part of the Grenadian army had taken power by force. The ending -ian is the usual English way to make “from this place,” like Canada → Canadian. Keep the i: Grenada → Grenadian, not Grenadan.
