Via 313 absolutely lives up to the hype. I’ve wanted to eat here for a while but the wait was always super long. We scored a table mid afternoon on a Saturday and were not disappointed. The Detroit- style pizza is so delicious and different from anywhere else around here. The melty, crispy cheese on the edges is ah-mazing. They also have a decent selection of beers on tap and the Cesar salad was well-made. Loved the chill atmosphere and the service was friendly and attentive. Five stars! Can’t wait to go back!

Five stars for pop and not soda on the menu. Oh, and the pizza is fantastic as well. Wife and I stopped in mid week for dinner while shopping in the area. Busy but not overly crowded. Staff was welcoming and our waitress was excellent. Started off with antipasto salad which is huge enough for two to share and very good. Picked a specialty pizza and then topped it off with Superman ice cream just for fun. Highly recommended and looking forward to more visits and trying other specialty pizzas.

We have been anticipating the opening of the Via 313 restaurant in Cedar Park for over a year since it was announced. Finally, it’s open and we made time to get a quick takeout pizza. It appeared the online ordering had not properly been set up yet and we couldn’t order by telephone, so I stopped in and placed an order for a large Detroit-style pizza and then went out and ran some errands during the 40 minute cooking time. I ordered a wonderful large pizza with half being the “Detroiter“ and half being the “Cadillac“. This wonderful pizza was consumed in virtually no time once it arrived home. The crust on the pizza was flavored with crispy cheese and was absolutely delicious. There’s already talk about returning to order it again. The only thing that didn’t seem correct was the Cadillac Pizza is supposed to come with Gorgonzola, which has a very distinctive “funky” flavor to it, but we couldn’t detect any Gorgonzola cheese on the pizza. It was still an excellent pizza!

It’s a Pizza Bar. Detroit style squares and thin, 12” rounds. Don’t be put off by the limited “selections” under the thin crust section; they can do the more extensive list from the Detroit section on thin crust too. “Sonic” ice - if you know, you know. The House salad is first class, romaine and fresh veggies. The thin crust is a tough chew, but it holds its form and doesn’t flop about; easy to keep the toppings on top! Cheese right out to the edge; the “crust” in the photo is the caramelized cheese at the edge. Great toppings with fresh veggies. The sauce was a little sweet for my tastes.

Really clean. Kitchen up front. Great bar. Great ambiance. The pizza is not just thick Detroit style but they also offer a thin crust pizza. Really great appetizers. The meatballs are really good. The cheese bread was good as well. Both needed a little salt but were tasty. The pizza is really filling. I had the small detroiter and it was very good

Personality Plus here at VIA 313. Loud music and lots of it. The wait staff overall…. Meh. We all know how I am about Customer Service and sadly one thing I didn’t see here was any camaraderie. I guess maybe that doesn’t matter to most people but it does to me. Our specific wait person was Victoria and she was great. After 3 different team members passed by me with my mouth opening to make a request she came from somewhere up front …to my rescue …and took care of my request for salt & pepper -immediately. I was trying to eat the beautiful garden salad they brought. It had adequate dressing but zero flavor. Not sure if there wasn’t enough vinegar but there definitely was no salt or pepper or any other kind of seasoning. I really love a simple vinaigrette but salt and pepper is a must! Otherwise the salad was very crisp and clean and chopped perfectly into bite-size pieces. The garden salad had crisp Romaine lettuce, sliced carrot, some red onion, sliced cucumbers and cherry tomatoes We ordered the large which was $9 and shared it. We ordered a $15 Detroit style (thick crust) Hawaiian pizza. VIA puts their sauce on top of the Detroit style pizza. I guess that’s kind of their signature. It reminded me very much of Buddy’s Pizza that still exists in the Detroit area in terms of the buttery-but crisp golden brown square small (4-squares) or large (8 squares) pizzas. VIA’s sauce is a little on the sweet side but not overly sweet. The pineapple rings- one whole ring per square-were great. The ham was very tasty- but it was scarce. Overall the pizza was great. Hubby had a coke $3 -although VIA has exceptional soda flavors including “Faygo” and “Vernor’s Ginger Ale” (again big memories for me as I used to walk by the Vernor’s Bottling Plant at 7-mile and Shaefer). Now then - I really splurged and ordered a “Boston Cooler” $6 another Detroit-centric beverage- it’s composed of Vernor’s Ginger Ale and Vanilla Ice Cream mixed together- not as thick as a milkshake but definitely as rich! It was like having dessert with dinner. YUM! Anyway we definitely recommend VIA 313. We will return. Update-Takeout Review 3.5 *** Tried take out tonight. Not the best experience. I have to take half the blame. I made an online order, and once I finalized it, I realized. I had not only ordered the meatballs, the cheese bread and the small pizza, but I had accidentally put a large pizza in there as well. I had some difficulty with their ordering system because I needed a half-and-half pizza and it took me a while to figure out how it works, however, I really wanted my better half to have his half of the pizza with the toppings he prefers so that’s how I scrambled up the order! I can’t believe I didn’t review the order thoroughly and didn’t realize my mistake until the order had gone in, but I did call them immediately. A very nice gentleman assisted me on the phone -told me it was not a problem and removed the large pizza from the order. I think him again, and apologized for the mistake. I asked if it changed the pick up time and he said that the pick up time was showing to be 5:55 PM central daylight time I didn’t say anything about the tip nor did I reduce the tip. When my husband arrives to pick up the order, they discovered that somehow the meatballs and the cheesy bread had gotten messed and had nothing made so it was going to be a 10 to 15 minute wait which was not unacceptable. However, I didn’t realize that would mean that our small pizza that was already hot and made, and waiting to go would sit there getting moist and limp. So, after waiting a bit for the rest of the order, and the five minute trip home, the pizza was less then good. It was pretty soggy, and I was pretty disappointed on the bright side. The cheesy bread and the meatballs were delicious. So there you have it. I really like via 313 especially since I am originally a Detroit girl, but I think we will need to avoid take out in the future.

First time we tried Via 313 pizza in Cedar park, Detroit style pizza and arugula salad were great. The food definitely delicious and want to try something new from menu. But we were disappointed in customer service, the waitress was nowhere around even she was constantly in the dining room, chatting with chefs in the kitchen and ignoring customers and lastly heavy metal music as a background for lunch- no thank you for families with kids.

We ordered a side of broccoli and cauliflower. For $8, we received a disappointing amount of soggy, formless vegetables.

ForSheepSakes

Been to this pizzeria several times since it’s opening and it was really good, but I think things are slipping a bit. I ordered two large pies for takeout. As far as I can remember in previous visits, these pizzas had a bit more sauce on them than what I got last night. It seemed to be just bread and cheese with just a splash of sauce. I only had two slices when I usually eat much more. The pizza was so dry with the lack of sauce that I really didn’t want anymore. Maybe I have to order extra sauce on the side next time? The pizzas are great quality and the service is always excellent. But maybe if you’re ordering pies from now on get some extra sauce on the side because they seem to be conserving it.

We stopped in for the first time to get takeout since they were still open at 9pm. The restaurant looked nice and spacious, and everyone we interacted with was quick, helpful, and friendly. My experience with the actual food however, was quite disappointing and dissatisfying. We ordered three items and felt like we just wasted over $40. The Bobo-Brazil detroit style was pretty good actually but we felt it was too small for what we paid. Give it a try if you like Detroit style. I like the variety of options on the menu since I don’t prefer Detroit style. I like thin (ny style) so I went with bar style thin crust & asked for the Marinara since I saw it under the Detroit style - very big mistake, don’t do what I did! This review is more about the bar style though. So my pizza was not cut and the pizza crust was so, so bad. It was like flat (single wall cardboard) bread, and no crispiness or browning anywhere! Also I didn’t read the description carefully, so note it’s fresh garlic. Very overpowering. Great sauce though, on my bright side. The brussels sprouts was just not it. It was soft and tasted like my first attempt at making it at home..no crisp or char at all!

I'm not gonna lie, this pie doesn't do a whole lot for me. If you grew up a fan of Little Cs deep dish pizza, this may not impress you either. The ingredients just happen to be a slight upgrade in quality, but execution is just OK. You get a fair decent amount of toppings, and the 8" large pizza is good for 2-3 people. I prefer JETs which reopened in Cedar Park, you get crispy edges on every slice!! I got the carnivor and it was good, but that's all I have to say, when you skimp on the toppings, you just get an avg pie. Customer service is chill, and the prices are decent, other than the wait, I would recommend giving this place a try.

Detroit pizza is my favorite selection which has a crispy crust. You may do a half half flavor of your preferred choice. The price of the various flavors cost differently too. The do have bar style pizza if you like. The ginger ale which cost $2 per can is really good to pair with the pizza. Despite the great food and ambience, the server who is a manager in training didn’t meet my expectations in welcoming new visiting guests. Only when you need to review for your followers and ask about their service, then they kinda waived off the drinks for out of courtesy. I would probably bring my new visiting guests and google guide reviewers to the one which has a better service to introduce this delish brand pizza.

People are nice, atmosphere is cool but they poisoned my wife - again, gluten free menu is suspect at best be aware - they make it fresh so someone is dropping the ball. PS~Ricotta cheese was delish now it’s a melted slime.

The bar style pizza was decent. But the Detroit style pizza that they specialize in fell short. It was extremely soggy besides the outer crust where they toast the cheese. I'm talking I thought the dough was undercooked and I still think it might be. Husband says it is just soggy from everything which is still not ok. When you grab the pieces it felt like soggy wet bread. This is our second time trying this place. Maybe it is just this location? Because we keep hearing it is good. But not sure how.
