Our Company Story
Where via 313 Began
Via 313 was founded with one simple belief: that great food should bring people together. Named after Detroit's area code, our roots trace back to a love for the Motor City's legendary pizza — thick, crispy-edged, and layered with flavor that tells a story with every bite.
From a humble trailer in Austin to a growing presence across Texas, via313 has always kept community at the heart of everything we do. Our San Antonio location at 7010 W Loop 1604 N carries that same spirit — a welcoming space where neighbors become regulars and every meal feels like an occasion.
We source quality ingredients with care, prepare every item with intention, and serve every guest with pride. This isn't just food — it's a tradition we're honored to share with you.
