OUR STORY
GOOD SOURCING. BAD BEHAVIOR. MIDWEST ROOTS.
Hooligan is a Midwestern seafood bar with a rebellious streak. We showcase the best fish, grains, and produce our region has to offer, alongside wines from small growers who share our commitment to craft and care. From oysters and crudo to fried perch and gumbo, the menu celebrates bold flavors, seasonal ingredients, and producers who push back against an industrial food system. It’s a meeting place for people who want food with edge, sourced with integrity, and served without pretense.
