It all began on a small Detroit street corner — brothers Brandon and Zane Hunt had a vision to bring authentic, square-cut Detroit-style pizza to the world. With a borrowed recipe, a rented kitchen, and boundless determination, via 313 was born.
Named after Detroit's original area code, via313 carries the spirit of Motor City in every bite. Our thick, airy dough, crispy cheese-lacquered edges, and bold Wisconsin brick cheese set us apart from every other pizza experience you've ever had.
Today, Via 313 has grown from a beloved local Austin trailer into a multi-location phenomenon serving guests across United States — but our soul remains rooted in the streets of Detroit.
