Via 313 Pizza

Seems Detroit Style Pizza is not for me. Expected a lot more from this restaurant as it has great reviews. Service was good. Atmosphere was relaxed but for me the pizza was horrible . That style of crispy oily base and not so great toppings on the bar style pizza just doesn’t shout pizza to me. I received a free portion of cinnamon fingers which were nice but similar style crusty dough. I must say the Caesar Salad for starter was nice. Overall Thanks but no thanks 👍

When the Houston deep dish pizza institution Barry’s closed in 2020 after 37 years, we’ve longed for a great Detroit style pizzeria. After seeing Via 313 featured in the Houston Chronicle “Best Pizza” feature, we were excited to see if this might be the place. 313 did not disappoint! Our favorite is adding black olives, mushrooms, and artichokes to the pepperoni Detroiter. The pie’s crust perfects the signature Detroit style of crisp cheesy edges. Now if they can come up with a creamy bacon salad dressing like Barry’s had, I’d be in absolute heaven!

Our server was great, we may have enjoyed the atmosphere a bit if there was more guest interaction however we completely understand that some days it is not possible. I eagerly awaited our pizza to be cooked as it enhanced our experience. The pepperoni and crust were perfectly crisp, while the bell pepper sustained a fresh taste and the sausage had a subtle spicy kick elevating the flavor of each bite! My husband was delighted to find Faygo bringing back childhood memories from Michigan. Definitely will visit again as all the pizza varieties were intriguing

My son took me here 4 Mother's Day, I wanted a gluten-free pizza! We waited over an hour 4 our pizzas! The Brussel sprouts took 40 minutes! My pizza was ALL BREAD! They charged for every item! And there was hardly anything on it? My son got the Carnivore, and it had some toppings! At the end it was almost $60 for our meal!? Totally Not worth it! I do not recommend this place! 😤😠

Via 313 is a nice spot with a decent menu, but our service was slow. It took about 8 minutes before anyone came by to greet us and take our drink order. Meanwhile, other tables who were seated after us had been tended to first. When our server arrived, she apologized for the delay, noting they were backed up. Drinks arrived roughly five minutes later, and the food took quite a while to come out as well. As for the food, the Detroit-style pizza and breadsticks were both tasty, and the meatballs were a highlight. The Caesar salad, however, was dry. The Faygo root beer was yummy. Overall, it was an okay experience—good food, but the service delays made it less enjoyable. Not sure if this is typical or just an off night.

I came here with my husband, and we were both pleasantly surprised! Our server, Will, had amazing customer service. He explained the menu very well and made sure we were well taken care of. We ordered the small Detroit style pizza. Half Cadillac and half 500 (the side with the pineapple). We also got some hot honey on the side and it paired so well with the pizzas. It was our first time but definitely not our last time!

Imani was our server and bartender. This was my second experience with her and they were both equally as amazing. She offered bomb suggestions, made us amazing drinks, and remember Les my order from last time which was over a month ago. The food was made fresh to order and was delicious.

This place was recommended by a neighbor. He got it right when he told me it was the best Detroit style pizza he ever had. Not only was the food at the top level, everything was fresh, hot and the service was over the top. I felt like a guest at their table, not just someone coming to eat pizza. The salad and bread stick are also just as good. I am already looking forward to my next visit!
