About Us
The Untamed story began with a vision—to create the healthiest restaurant brand with a menu that caters to every lifestyle. It took years of CrossFit workouts, marathons, and adventures for the full Untamed mission to take shape in the mind of our founder, Alex Harrington.
Alex’s journey into healthy living started early, competing in triathlons, playing golf, and running ultramarathons in high school and college. Even in college, he skipped traditional spring breaks for snowshoe marathons in Vermont. As his life evolved, the dream of building a robust community around a health and wellness brand became an obsession.
In 2021, Alex decided it was time to turn this dream into a reality. He assembled a team that shared his vision for a restaurant brand that focused on wellness, longevity, and deliciousness—without compromise.
After extensive testing and feedback from local chefs, CrossFit trainers, and nutritionists, we’re proud to present Untamed Kitchen. Our prototype location is situated in downtown Omaha’s thriving business district, where we’re committed to providing the best in healthy and sustainable food.
At Untamed Kitchen, we believe the world doesn’t need more restaurants; it needs better and healthier ones. We invite you to join us on this journey towards a healthier and more delicious future.
