Dojo/ASP.Net/Entity Framework - Bind data to Dojo DataGrid

Question

I need to pull table data from EF/a database and bind to a Dojo DataGrid inide an ASP.Net MVC 3 app. I guess I have to create a JS object/array from the data from a db/EF 1st, before it's bound, right? Should I convert the data to a JSON object 1st? Also the some grids would need to be hierarchical (ie certain cells may have repeating groups). Is there any way to directly bind something like a .Net DataSet or a hierarchical JS object directly to the Jodo grid? I guess I could traverse a host language construct like a .Net DS/EF object and create something to pass in, but also wondering a best practice on how to get the data from the host language construct to the grid on the client side, say, if I did an AJaX call to refresh the data.
