So let me preface this review with this...if you have ever been to Detroit there is a famous Detroit style pizza place called Buddys (or at least this is what I was told, I'm not from there lol)...we went to Detroit for an event and had buddys, we had the Detroiter and a Cesar salad and it was great, top 5 in my opinion of pizza I've ever eaten and that's saying a lot being from NY. Fast forward to my visit to Via 313 also a Detroit establishment serving pizza...and let me just say!! It is a must go!! The pizza was amazing (we had the detroiter again) and also the Cesar salad...our friends also had other various pizzas and they all highly enjoyed it. The service was awesome and the restaurant is clean and has a cool ambiance. It was my birthday so they gave me free cinnamon sticks with a cream cheese icing...Sooooo good!! Def a 5 star experience! You have to check them out read more

I was confused by the service the night we came in. The pizza was perfect, as usual. The Detroiter is crispy, chewy, buttery, and all the delicious things rolled into this pillowy goodness. We ordered the arugula salad with goat cheese, they being it the salad and say they were out of goat cheese, and I was okay with it. Then they come back and say, we did have gorgonzola. I was confused. So they put down the cheese and it's goat cheese. Anyway, the salad was incredible, but let's be real, the goat cheese makes ALL the difference. They were also out of my man's go-tos on tap. Which was a slight bummer for him. Service is always friendly and the restaurant is very cool, like escape the heat cool, with a chill vibe. I still love the heck out of this pizza! read more

Via 313 Pizza - Detroiter - Pizza Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

If you're craving some seriously good pizza, Via 313 hits the mark. This spot brings Detroit-style pizza to a whole new level with its thick, crunchy crust, cheesy goodness, and a sauce that pulls everything together perfectly. We started off with the cheese bread, and it was super good. Perfectly baked, cheesy, soft on the inside with a slight crisp on the outside and when you dip it in their garlic sauce, it takes it to a whole other level. That garlic sauce was so good, I honestly could've eaten it with everything on the menu. For the main course, the pizza was next-level. The edges were crispy and golden, and every bite was saucy, cheesy, hot, and just perfect. We had The Detroiter with the double pepperoni crispy little pepperonis on top and melty cheese underneath. It was rich, filling, and full of flavor. The vibe in the restaurant was cool and laid-back. Service was quick and friendly, and everything came out fresh and hot. read more

My brother suggested this place, and it did not disappoint. He honestly needs to join yelp. Place was super nice. Medical center area. And the outside dining was super nice. We did eat inside but the decor was amazing. I loved the story behind them being Detroit style. Our server was super fun and busy busy busy. She still had time to answer our questions, get our refills, and was super intuitive regarding to go boxes. We skipped the appetizer because we wanted to eat more pizza. And both were amazing. The Cadillac was beyond new and interesting, the toppings don't seem normal for pizza but it was still wonderful. A playful tour of the different flavors that I didn't expect but was still tasty. The ambassador bridge was perfect for pizza. The Ricotta was tasty and delicious. We added two servings of ranch and it was just the ticket to dip crusts in. Will be returning and taking some friends with us. read more

Finally got to try some Detroit style pizza! Stopped by during lunch and service was fast and attentive. I ate outside as they have a lovely view of san Antonio on the hill. They have a great lunch special that comes with 2 Detroit style pizzas, a drink and a salad. The pizza came out hot, crunchy and oh so cheesy! A little on the salty side but the salad adds a great balance. Highly recommend if you're in the mood for something different but comfortable like pizza parking is super easy. They have a full bar if that's your jam! read more

I've been here a couple of times, and it was my first time trying Detroit style pizza. However, it will not be my last. I'm in love with this place! It's a thick crust, but it's a bit more crispy when compared with Chicago style pizza. The crust is a little buttery tasting, and it comes out crispy (but not overly so). The sauce is just a little bit on the sweet side, but it's drizzled over the top of the pizza, so it's not covered in it. The service is great, and they have a couple of beers on tap. You can also get a salad and a couple of different appetizers. Check this place out - it has become one of my go-to's for pizza. I absolutely love it! read more

Me and my fiancé were SO excited to try this place but ended up disappointed. My fiancé is from Detroit and I had just come back from MI so we decided to stop by on a Friday night. We walked in an everything seemed to go well until we were seated. They sat us in a corner right next to a big party and left us. There were plenty of open table with a view outside so when the hostess came back (3 min later) we asked nicely if we could move. We were immediately met with an attitude and it only went on from there. Our new waitress was dismissive to everything we asked for. My fiancé order Fygos while I was in the restroom but then realized they had Vernons (while he was ordering). He asked to get that instead and she said no because "the order was already sent to the bar". We ordered artichokes and got Brussels sprouts. It took her 10 min to come back so we could correct it. It just felt as if everything we asked or needed was an issue and it wasn't even that busy. We would ask for something and she would give us a dirty look or just walk away. Both of us were so confused. It could have been our fault for asking to move in the first place, but I don't think it should be held over us the whole meal. Not only that, our pizzas came out a different times (like 5 min apart). And if I am being completely transparent, the pizza didn't seem authentic. We really wanted to love this place and it could have just been the service that made it bad. But will definitely NOT be going back to this location. read more

Tried this place for the first time, and everyone was very welcoming. They offer both Detroit-style pizza and traditional thin-crust round pizza. We went with the Detroit-style and meatballs--both were delicious. Since it was our first visit, our waiter kindly brought us a cinnamon dessert to try, which was also fantastic. Overall, we had a great experience. While this style of pizza isn't my personal favorite, my partner loved it, he said it's a 5 stars for him, he'll have to write his own review, but we'll definitely be back! read more

Decided to head to Via 313 for dinner with family. Pros: 1. We were seated quickly, and the service was friendly. 2. We tried a rum old fashion and vodka cherry limeade. Both were tasty, though the limeade could have had a little less ginger and a little more cherry. 3. The pepperoni pizza was solid! Crispy crust, thick cheese, and lots of pepperoni. 4. The dessert with partially baked cookies and vanilla ice cream was yummy to end the dinner. Cons: 1. They forgot a drink, but the manager made up with dessert. 2. The fig and prosciutto pizza needed more fig and balsamic to balance the saltiness of the cheeses. I'm definitely headed back for some more interesting items on the menu. read more

The pizza here is delicious. My favorite is the jalapeño popper pizza that used to be limited time and I am so thankful they made it a full-time menu option. I will say it is a little pricey, which is always a factor in my reviews, but the quality of food is good. read more

Tasted great however, I ordered the limited edition feature elote and there was zero cilantro and zero cilantro lime sauce. Also there was no way to customize it on door dash to get it extra crispy or any other customization like the other pizzas read more

Waited an hour to get cheese bread appetizer, ran out of tea 45 minutes ago, they should let bartenders take tables haven't seen her since she took the order, had to come back and add to the review, my pizza finally showed up uncooked and cold needless to say I just gave up read more

Upon arrival to the restaurant the clumsy staff bumped into eachother and spilled drinks all over the table in front of me . I then politely waited without question until a table was ready for me just to wait another 20 minutes until I had to ask a server to take my order after I watched her take 2 tables orders that arrived after me . Was never apologized to or even acknowledged . Poor service/ poor management , don't recommend this location during any sort of rush hour. If I would've known I'd be waiting this long I would've booked a reservation. read more

I had never tried Detroit style pizza... I was not disappointed. Via 313's fresh ingredients went a long way in making that fantastic first impression. The pizza sauce was bright, with a spot of sweetness, the mozzarella had a hint of salt, and the crust was perfectly baked. Be sure to try the meatball starter. The marinara sauce was rich and savory... a lovely contrast to the lighter pizza sauce. The dining room is small, but there is plenty of seating at the full bar and al fresco. The service was spot on... friendly, helpful and kind. Cheers! read more

San Antonio has good pizza, and now Via 313 has added another wonderful choice! Originally from Austin, Via specializes in Detroit style pizzas which are square pizzas with a very crispy base. They're not common in Texas, but they're absurdly delicious when made by Via! The bar style pizzas offered are more standard looking pizzas. They're also very good, but the square ones are better. Try the carnivore if you love meat, the omnivore for a nice balance, or any vegetarian pizza for a slightly cleaner touch. There's not a bad choice. Even the cocktails are solid. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. Arrive for an early lunch to have the place to yourself. It will be full by 1215. Service is prompt and not overbearing. Expect to be tended to without having to flag down a waiter. read more

Located conveniently in medical Center. We did go on national margarita day and they had their margaritas for $3.13 the whole day. I ordered two. I could definitely tell you they were strong. They're small size but potent. Of course, I had to get a pizza. I have always ordered their Detroit style, but this time I decided to order the normal thin crust pizza (bar style). I went with the four cheese (MC5). The small one could definitely feed two people sometimes three depending how much people eat. The thin crust pizza was very good. It was as crispy as I like it. Everyone was super nice and accommodating. We got seated almost as soon as we arrived. They have inside and outside seating. The outside seating is limited. Parking is available on site, but shared with the other businesses. read more

The service was wonderful. We enjoyed square slice pizza and Brussel sprouts. Flavorful and yummy. Would definitely go back again.

Very good and clean restaurant staff was very nice and friendly with smiles prices were great

Redemption review: This time went with my daughter, her friend and our fur baby. Our waitress was extremely attentive to both humans and fur baby. Brought water for him and end his dining event with a Pupachino. Outdoor patio is dog friendly and accessible but not much in way of ambience but food this time and service made up for it. Finally got our cheese bread, it was good as well as our Detroit style pizza. Refills for both soda and water were a flowing. read more

We've been wanting to try this pizza spot for a while now. It was a nice spot. Not a huge dine in but they had booths and tables outside as well. They had gluten free Detroit style pizzas, gf breadsticks, and a gf cinnamon stick dessert. We got everything. They were all good but I don't think we prefer Detroit style pizza. It was too much bread and dough for us. That was just our preference. They have a garlic Parmesan sauce that was really good as well. Our waitress was really friendly and gave great service. read more

Service was SLOW. I think they make it fresh to order. Food was pretty good...nothing extravagant IMO. Just pizza at a spot with a cool vibe. They did have a full bar, didn't try it. Everyone should try it once! It reheated well honestly. read more

I was excited to try Via 313 Pizza, as I'm from the Detroit area and have yet to find pizza as good as it is in Michigan. Via 313 Pizza was pretty darn good! It reminded me of the style of pizza from a local chain in Michigan called Buddy's. The sauce was decent, but not my favorite. The toppings were yummy and it was nice and crispy on the edges (we got Detroit style, but they also have thin crust). Not the best dough I've ever had, but decent. The ambiance is great. It's hip, cozy, and a bit gritty. Similar to Detroit! The booth was comfortable. There was even an outdoor area to eat. There weren't a lot of people when we went around 5:30 on a week day. The server was great! Super kind and attentive. On point and never had to look around for her. I was happy with the service. Prices were decent. About the same as a not-Marco's pizza. They have a full bar and Faygo pop! Yay!! read more

Service was quick. The staff were so friendly. Food was delicious. We ordered the lunch special two pieces of pizza with a salad and a drink for $12. We got the Detroit pizza.

I would highly recommend trying this restaurant. read more

This was my first taste of Detroit-style pizza and it definitely made me want to try it again.

Just paid $51.62 for a large Ambassador Bridge to be delivered through Grubhub. There was no option to add Mike's Hot Honey online, so I called the restaurant (Medical Center location) FIVE times and NO ONE answered. In fact, the call disconnected FIVE times after timing out. All I wanted was to have the Mike's Hot Honey added before cooking, but now the driver is already on the way with the finished pizza. This is not the first problem I have had with this location. The management and/or staff needs a SERIOUS customer service revamp. read more

Now to talk pizza.. we ordered a deep dish meat lover and an artichoke as they were recommended and said to be "amazing". The Detroit was good, crunchy and tasty, real big chunks of sausage tho. Only complaint was that it was really greasy and oily. That artichoke & parm pizza.. was not for us tho! Flavors did not compliment each other and I avoided it. read more

There are as many styles of pizza as there are the different cities that claim them as theirs. But for a point of reference the three main ones are: New York, Chicago and Detroit style. Each has an etiquette or unspoken codes that goes alongside with each. Subjectively it's all a preference for one over the other one. Via 313 Pizza does Detroit style pizza and it does it well. I say this as not many pizza places carry "Faygo Pop", a Michigan staple. On a cold inclement weather afternoon instead of opting for soup I was craving pizza. It's located kinda in the Medical Center area in the midst of evergrowing franchises. And I know there is one in Austin, as circumstance prevented me from trying it. I did see the "Elder Eats" segment which featured it and I was anticipating a much bigger space. Instead it is a small, intimate but charming restaurant with limited seating. My first impression of it was visible signage. You wait to be seated. A server, who I might add was excellent seated me at a booth. Another thing I appreciated was the simple but straightforward menu. With items named "MC5" or "The Stooges" I thought this was a clever touch and nod to the lore of Michigan. On the drink end they offer a humble yet sufficient beverage list that will please everyone. They carry wine, serve cocktails and have a small but impressive beer taplist. Since it was my first time here the server, who was ultra friendly and patient recommended "The Detroiter." So without further ado I ordered that and a pint of Bell's "Two Hearted-Ale", again from Michigan. In the time between ordering and waiting for items I usually survey a place. I really like the cozy but laid back vibe here. From the neon sign as you enter that says, "Everything is going to be alright" to the small bar counter space the goal is to create an intimate experience. I'm not sure if it were my eyes that fixated on the appetizers on the menu or my Yelp telekinetic powers but I was sent complimentary meatball apps. They were excellent with a tomato sauce that showcased them, a preview of what was to come. "The Detroiter" is a pizza with a voluminous dough layered by cheese, a pile of scooped pepperoni and a river of sauce. I could sense the oregano, the herbs in the sauce which were sweet but not overwhelming. This is where the unspoken pizza code comes into play. The ratio of cheese versus sauce and vice versa is subjective and will illicit different results. Me, just load up my pizza with sauce until I'm completely submerged. At that capacity VIA 313 Pizza delivered on all ends. From the cozy, intimate space, excellent service to the awesome food everyone will find something here to laud. Sure I came on a cold inclement weather afternoon but it brightened my day. And what other place does the playlist change from "The Sword", heavy rock to "The Supremes" Motown in the span of 5 minutes. Can I get "Grand Funk Railroad's" "We're an American Band", again a Michigan staple next time please? read more
