About:
Maiz De La Vida began when Chef Julio Hernandez used a stimulus check during the pandemic to start making tortillas in his garage. After catching a break when popular East Nashville bar Chopper partnered with what was then the Maize De La Vida food truck, the chef's fantastic Mexican street-style food took off garnering critical acclaim and gaining many fans on the way. In 2024 Maiz De La Vida opened their first fully operating brick and mortar in The Gulch shown here. This location brings their award winning Mexican cuisine into a modern environment great for all occasions.

Neighborhood Spotlight:
Twenty years ago, the neighborhood now known as The Gulch, was just a train yard full of garages, warehouses and gravel parking lots. The only reason to ever come here was to listen to some bluegrass at the iconic Station Inn, opened since 1974 or to perhaps to grab a meat and three at Arnold’s, a soul food institution, opened since 1982. In the past twenty years no area of Nashville has experienced as much growth as here.
