Five on Black - Brazilian Food - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Really good place for a customizable meal! The tilapia was surprisingly good, it was soft and tasted fresh. The plantains were very salty, but all the other toppings were nicely seasoned. The cheese bread was also just okay, tasted fine but they were a little hard. Overall, this is good place if you want to try out different options and flavors. It's also great for a quick lunch since they build your bowl right in front of you. read more

It was definitely a cut above Qdoba. Nice people, decent food. And FYI, the "spicy coconut sauce " is not at all spicy. It was delicious. It's also a ton of food. I ate 3 meals from my bowl. read more

Always tasty and great service. Eating inside is comfortable too. Love how everything is gluten free! read more

Five on Black - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Personally, I think that Brazillian food in the US is under represented, outside of the pricey all-you-can-eat buffets, which isn't how the average person in Brazil eats every day. Five on Black seems way more approachable, and feels like a Chipotle for Brazillian food. The concept of this restaurant is pretty neat and we decided to stop in for dinner. 1/2 Dozen Pao De Queijo ($5.50) - The pao de queijo has a decent texture, with a mochi-like chew, and the right taste - starchy yet cheesy - but they are served cold and not particularly fresh, like they've been sitting in the container the entire day. They should serve these fresh or at least at a minimum stored under warming lights. (3/5) Small White Rice Bowl with Feijoada, Collards, Toasted Cassava, Cilantro, Chimichurri ($9.75) - The feijoada seems to mainly consist of day old leftover meats, including the churrasco chicken and beef, mixed in with small pieces of bacon, and ground beef in a pinto bean and tomato stew. The white rice soaks up some of the liquid, making each bite still feel like you're eating stew. The chimichurri is very thick but tastes on point. They only add a small spoonful on top of the bowl so it's not enough to add much flavor to everything else. The collards aren't cooked that well - while they are pretty tender, they still exhibit a lot of bitterness. Flavorwise, even with everything mixed together, the food is kind of bland. It's like something you would eat if you're sick and don't want food that would upset your stomach. I love feijoada, and this is not it. (2/5) Small Brown Rice Bowl with Churrasco Beef, Black Beans, Cassava, Toasted Cilantro, Chimichurri ($9.75) - Starting with the meat - this is pretty much as far away from churrasco as you can get. The taste and texture is as if someone had taken roast beef, trimmed off all the fat, cubed and boiled it, leaving it overcooked, only slightly moist on the interior, yet dry on the exterior and flavorless. The beans are cooked fine, but are quite dry. The beans are drained so only the tender black beans are included without any of the sauce. The rest of the ingredients don't add any moisture at all and it feels as if you're just eating a really dry bowl of ingredients. I got the coconut curry sauce on the side. Let me tell you that you should not get the sauce on the side - without sauce, the bowl is just way too dry to eat. Adding it in improves things just a tad, but since they don't give a lot on the side, it's not enough to flavor the entire bowl. The curry essentially taste like a slightly spicy green Thai curry. Since most of the ingredients aren't spiced very well, there is a distinct lack of layered flavor. As some other reviewers state and with the other bowl, the best description for the food here is "bland". (2/5) Overall I came out full, but unsatisfied. I feel like Five on Black serves health food, maybe competing against those salad bowl places. This restaurant has such a great concept, but the food there is lacking. It's missing fat, it's missing flavor. I note some other reviews that state to use a specific combination of ingredients to increase the flavor levels. I don't think that's acceptable given that this is a Chipotle-style build your own bowl place. They either need to have recommended bowls, or make everything flavorful enough to stand on their own. I do not recommend eating at Five on Black, unless you're just looking for a unique experience and you don't particularly care about your food. Bathrooms - One unisex room in the back. Not the rooms with the googly eyes. read more

Great place to grab a quick, healthy and cheap lunch. I got a small salad/rice bowl with the tilapia and added 2 cheese breads for an extra $1 each. Total was around $11 including tip. I was able to sit outside and people watch while I had my meal. The staff was nice and friendly too. read more

Five on Black - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Five on Black is a quick and healthy option. It reminds me of a Brazilian chipotle with how it is set up. Overall, I think the prices are a little bit high for the portions you are getting. There is a lot of potential, but some of the flavors are a bit off to me - the two sauce options are spicy coconut and mango bbq, which I think throw off the bowls. read more

OMG, so happy we decided to stop at Five on Black on our way back west! This place is awesome, like a better version of Chipotle. It's a bowl place where you can pick and choose what you want. I got the Churrasco Beef and Sweet Potatoes for my grill/side options, which were great. I was worried the potatoes would be too coconutty, but they were not at all! We also got the Pao de Queijo, which were small but so yummy. Loved the texture of the cheese bread. read more

Food wasn't ready for pick up despite 10-15 before I arrived. No one was preparing any food when I got there. Was told they won't prepare online orders ahead of time. I order online to not have to wait - especially in this difficult parking area. I won't go again. read more

Wow, just had truly the most unpleasant experience ordering here. Entire staff was morose and couldn't care less about taking proper care of the food they were preparing. No idea if this was just an off night or if something was going on.. but my goodness. I'll return, but I hope I never have to deal with the crew who was working 1/15/26 7pm again.. read more

Really cool place, I loved the options they have and my bowl was delicious and healthy. Would definitely come here again

The employees were so cheerful. We've been to other locations and have enjoyed the food but it tasted especially good this time. It definitely left us wanting it again soon. Please get locations in Utah! read more

First meal in Missoula! My partner had researched and found this place and it piqued our interest. We walked in and they were quite busy for a time when people do not typically eat. It was a hot day and the inside was even hotter. We ordered our bowls and I got chicken and my partner got beef. This place has a lot of potential but the meats were very dry and it was quite... flavorless... I did feel healthy though so that is a plus. My main advice for this place is that they need to add a bit more of the toppings since most of the flavors came from there. read more

This place is great if you love a big ol' bowl of rice or greens and embarrassingly minuscule amounts of any other ingredients you might want. Unfortunately for me, that's just not what I was looking for. I'd say don't even order the beef, as it's just a few little grey cubes lightly sprinkled. Ridiculous. read more

Your body will thank you for eating here! I had some fried food elsewhere prior and my stomach wasn't feeling all that great but once I tried my bowl I was pleasantly surprised and almost ate everything! There are lots of healthy toppings and some I wouldn't normally eat but I'm so glad I tried something new. Ordering style is just like Chipotle as others have mentioned. Fun fountain drinks available. Don't forget to add their cheese bread to your order! read more

Five on Black - Tilapia - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Fake Brazilian food that has little taste. The cheese rolls were like hard biscuits. Black beans were even lame! They blast loud pop music with no Latin style. read more

I called your place. Wison. The best help. What a star you have. The patience this person exhibited

First time, not convinced I chose the best possible option, but that's the thrill of discovery : ) And make no mistake, I'll try this again with my wife and the extended family. Think of this (maybe) as Cafe Rio, Brazilian style. Flavor pops, and for me that's huge. I eat out far too often because of work, and what can I say, I just need the culinary equivalent of the taste bud double take. This delivered that, and, if, as I suspect, I can increase my dining pleasure here by 10-15%, I will take credit for discovering the New World. read more

Five on Black - Brown rice and greens Brazilian stew Sweet potato and coconut Brazilian bbq sauce - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

We like this place for what it is. Healthy, tasty, fast food. (Not a hamburger place.) A welcome departure from the norm in Missoula. Service tends to be spot on. read more

I was intrigued by this place because it's a fast casual Brazilian food like a Brazilian Chipotle. It's nice to have that kind of option when for the most part you only hear about Brazilian steakhouses that are way too pricey for a lunch meal. When you walk in the set up is the same as in Chipotle. You choose your base, your meat, your sides, your sauces, and your toppings. Because this was my first time I didn't know which ones to get so I asked to get basically a little bit of everything. I ordered half chicken and half beef and all the sides and sauces. I preferred the beef to the chicken and I really liked the sweet potatoes. The collard greens were surprisingly really good and had more flavor than I was expecting. The spicy coconut sauce was delicious and I can totally see why it's very popular. I had a little of everything and everything was pretty good and filling. This is a really cool kind of restaurant and I wish they had locations closer to me! read more

Five on Black - The photo couldn't wait - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Nice idea. Brazilian cuisine in a Chipotle atmosphere. Food is bland, I guess that's why they push all the sauces (some with heat some with flavor). It was on the light side so that's what we were after. Nice service at the counter to explain the food, make suggestions, and do some up-selling. Place was busy at 6 on Sunday, and it was very clean. read more

Five on Black - Small veggie bowl - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

This is a Brazilian version of Chipotle. I was thoroughly impressed with my meal here. I would 100% go back here and recommend it to a friend. It is great if you are a carnivore or a vegan, it has plenty of options. The food is fresh, delicious, tasty, and healthy. The spicy coconut sauce was probably the best part of the meal. I cannot think of another restaurant that has this combination in a sauce but it brought the whole bowl together. The sauce went well with the sweet potatoes which were loaded with flavor. The chicken was cut into tiny chunks which allowed everything in the bowl to be mixed together. The chicken was well cooked, not a ton of flavor but no complaints. The cheese roll is a must, light, fluffy and good to soak up the sauce with your meal. The Chimichurri brought some heat and the farofa enhanced all of the flavors. The farofa is a must get as well as the spicy coconut sauce, and cheese roll. This place was well worth the 5 star review and the $15 for a large bowl. I was not able to finish it in one sitting but it was still damn delicious even as a leftover. read more

If your a fan of S. American flavor you should try this place! We had the Brazilian stew and the tilapia. I added some heat to the stew and both dishes had very good, complex flavors! Prices are as would be expected and service is friendly and helpful. It is a little loud and by that I mean the servers yelling back and forth to each other about their personal lives. read more

Food very good and fairly priced. Service good but all for naught and spoiled by the insanely loud techno and industrial noise blasting through the ceiling loudspeakers. Was impossible to converse without yelling across the table. It is a occupational illness hazard for the employees definitely violating the OSHA standard of 85 decibels of sustained noise beyond one hour. For the customers, it is a great way to serve them then run them out of the restaurant with to go entre's? I was in the downtown No Higgins Five on Bllack this afternoon and when the the concert level techno and industrial noise pollution came on the place cleared out. Will never eat there again. read more

Great food. There is options for those who like and dislike spicy food. The music they play in there is always great. Service is super friendly. read more

Build your own Brazilian bowl. I love these concepts because you can really get all you want in you're meal without feeling like you're being annoying. This place has all fresh ingredients that they are cooking/making in clear view. They offer a lot of options-- personally it's hard to not want everything in the one bowl but they do office to do half scoops so you really can get lots of the options without breaking the bank. Super tasty and much recommended in Missoula. read more

Five on Black - Small Build Your Own Bowl - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

In the past food here has been good, but today I was appalled at the food and the service. Many of the food containers had not been turned out with fresh even though they were empty and until I asked the employee to stop scraping the container and get a new one he gave me old hard rice and flakey bits of collard greens. The employee clearly didn't hear my sauce request as once I got all the way back to work I found out he didn't even put ANY sauce on it!!! Not worth the money I paid and honestly am unsure when I'll be back. read more

So we went to their Bozeman location last time we passed through I5 in Montana, and they were out of Feijoada. For the uninitiated Feijoada is the prized dish of Brazil. You start with grilled meats and bones, and make a deep broth for hours. Then you cook the black beans in said broth for many more hours. Well we called ahead and they said they had some left, and we hurried to get it. We ordered the Feijoada (Brazilian Stewed Beef) rice bowl, with white rice, black beans, topped with chimichurri (Brazilian spicy salsa) and farofa (shaved dried cassava). read more

Definitely not Brasilian food....more brasilian style...some things are simular...atleast they have Pão de queijo, Brigadeiros and Guaraná. Wish they had Coxinha. It tends to be expensive for what it is...rice bowl with beans and alittle meat. read more

Five on Black - Pao de queilo, brown rice, churrasco chicken, sweet potatoes and spicy coconut sauce. - Brazilian Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Fast, flavorful & fullfilling food! This is basically a brazillian Chipotle. When ordering you choose from a menu for options: a base, protein, sauce and toppings. You can also get some pan de queijo which is a very popular 'snack' in Brazil. The ones here was okay. It was more on the cheesy end than I prefer - but if you love cheese, I'm sure you'll like this. As someone who's been to Brazil...this is not an authentic Brazillian restaurant. I feel that they cater the food to match American profile tastes, but the essence of the flavors and combinations of ingredients are there. That is, the sweet potato, tomatoes, tilapia and mango. Nevertheless, the food is good. Highly reccomend this place if you're looking for a quick meal during your drive by Missoula. read more

We stopped here on our journey from coast to coast. This place is very vegan and GF friendly, something I was worried about finding in MT. The bigger bowl is super filling and lasted me for both lunch and dinner. Getting through line was fast and they were very helpful explaining everything. Also, talk about a flavor explosion! Everything tasted amazing and I didn't feel heavy or gross like you would eating at a lot of the other options around town. Healthy, taste, inexpensive! Doesn't get much better in my opinion read more

We were strolling through downtown Missoula a few days ago (Wednesday, to be precise) and decided that we'd try this place. It's sort of like Brazil meets Chipotle (it's food bowls). It looked nice and since we got to pick the fixings, I could be sure of getting healthy gluten-free options. We both ordered basically the same thing. Except, BF got the cheesy roll. You pick five things (thus, I gather, the name). 1. base. I got brown rice/greens. BF got white rice/greens. 2. protein. They had a special rosted pork, so we both got that. 3. side. Both got picked collard greens. 4. sauce. We both opted for the spicy coconut. 5. topping. We also chose the farofa (toasted cassava flour mixture that's gluten-free (whee)) and some chimichurri. I was expecting FLAVOR since this was Brazilian food. It tasted just...well...okay. Most of the flavor came from the sauce. Everything else was a conveyance. BF didn't finish his lunch (which is an abboration). It was meh. They had awesome Tractor Beverage Co. (organic craft fountain drinks). BF had root beer and mine was the creme soda with other fancy delicious flavors mixed in. read more
