The Good: I have been searching for a good pizza joint ever since moving here from Chicago, and this is definitely the closest I have ever come. I tip my hat to you. Crust is light and buttery, cheese is perfectly crisped, pepperonis perfectly curled, and the sauce has just a touch of heat. *chefs kiss*.
The "Bar-Style" pizza also reminded me of the Chicago Tavern Style as well.
The Meh: There was an issue with the ovens and they were running an hour behind. They did give me a free drink of my choice at the bar which was amazing. I only mention it because the 2nd time I went to get a pizza they were also very behind. I am not sure if this is a reoccurring thing or if I just got unlucky twice.
Our server Ryan went above and beyond once we told him it was our first time at Via 313. He recommended the jalapeño poppa pizza, which we got, and which was amazing. There was a long wait, but we were able to walk down the strip mall to juiceland and get a latte to kill time. My husband had a $3 lone star(!!) and I had a couple of very tasty margaritas. We also had the hot artichoke dip which was interesting and different with crunchy crostinis, and the hot brownie with ice cream for dessert which was just drreeeeamy. We’ll definitely be returning!
Absolutely delicious pizza! Definitely worth the half hour wait to be seated. We tried 4 different pizzas and every single one was amazing. Our server was awesome - very warm and attentive, and patient as she explained each of the pizzas and their ingredients. Our first time trying Detroit style pizza and we won't forget the experience. Thank you!

Austin is pretty far from Detroit and Chicago but Via 313 doesn’t have a competitor in the area that can touch the quality and flavor when it comes to deep dish pizza. In fairness, I have only tried the Oak Hill location and haven’t had the opportunity to try the thousands of establishments here in Austin (yet), that specialize or just have good pizza on their menus. But as a traveling pizza enthusiast, this pie is currently the best in the area. The sauce is spectacular (not too sweet and not too tangy), the crust is amazing (crispy and chewy all at the same time), and the toppings are quality fresh ingredients that make the pie stand out that much more remarkably. As for the price; it’s much more than a fast food joint, it’s not priced like a Michelin rated restaurant (which I’d be concerned if they even served pizza ;), but what it is, is great pizza served at a price that reflects its quality. The only complaint I have, is that the bar is small. It can be like Mad Max racing to get a seat for a pie and a pint. Lost revenue opportunity in my book, but the something the owners can figure out. Enjoy the pizza!
Thick, delicious pizza. Not too crowded on a Friday night. Gluten free options were awesome. I recommend the anti pasta salad - sooo good! The omnivore pizza was on point. The only issue is that we had a large group, and the servers had a hard time dealing with us, even though we were super nice. It really shouldn’t have been as stressful as they made it out to be. Other than that, it was great.
Coming from Chicago, this was the first pizza in Austin that made me feel like Austin finally had good pizza. (Home slice came close.) But this restaurant goes well beyond that. My daughter has a severe egg allergy, and this restaurant, beyond all others took the care in allergy handling to make it safe for her. (They've since removed egg from all their crusts.) I developed a gluten allergy, and their gluten-free pizza crust is terrific. It was one of the few restaurants where I felt like I could have an experience like I used to. So beyond great food, they've had very attentive people responsive to dietary restrictions, and though they do Detroit-style pizza, Via 313 has exactly the vibe that made Austin great.

Very very delicious. I loved the pizza we got but I forgot what it’s called. It has pineapple, pepperoni, jalapeños. Heat is spot or without too much spice. The pepperoni pizza is also great. Get the ranch…it was delicious to dip pizza into. Worth the extra charge. Cooked to perfection.
Tasty Detroit style pizza. Definitely one of my favorite pizza spots in Austin. Great drinks menu and good variety of topping picks.
I had a GREAT experience here! This is only my second time in Texas and this place made me feel right at home. My server/bartender (I didn’t catch the name unfortunately, but she had a nose ring and curly hair in a ponytail) was to thank for this. I ordered a pizza that came out with the wrong topping, and I wasn’t going to say anything, but she went out of her way to take it back from me since she knew it was wrong, have them remake the whole pizza, AND comped it off my bill. She was so hospitable and fun to talk to throughout the experience too. 5 stars! 😇
