About the Business

Our chef, Bruce Ucan, is a Mayan Indian from the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. He came to the states in 1987 and has been working in restaurants here ever since.

The Mayan Cafe began as a small truck out of which our chef sold tacos & salbutes. Over the years, this grew into a restaurant in Nulu, one of Louisville's most energetic and developing neighborhoods.

Established in 1997.
