I’ve been a frequent customer of Via 313 in Austin for years and have always had a great experience. However, my recent visit to the San Antonio location during a work trip was a huge disappointment.
I was initially concerned when the bartender, who was also our server, didn’t write down our order—especially since I have a gluten intolerance. But when another staff member brought out my food and specifically said, “This is the gluten-free pizza,” I assumed everything was fine.
Unfortunately, I was wrong.
This was the first time I’ve ever been glutened at Via 313, and it led to the worst reaction I’ve had in years. I'm in so much pain and discomfort. It’s incredibly frustrating because I’ve always felt confident in their ability to handle gluten-free orders at other locations.
I hope they take steps to ensure that their San Antonio staff is more careful about dietary restrictions in the future.
The crazy thing is, it was about 3 p.m. on a Tuesday, and there were only two other couples there eating. So, it's not like they were busy.
Great GF pizza, my daughter is pretty sensitive to contamination, and she had no problems eating here. The non-GF pizzas are amazing as well. I love the Detroit style pizzas. They also have GF desserts which we did not get to try but will do so in the future.
The absolute best Gluten Free pizza we have had! The staff is very knowledgable about celiac and took extra precautions to ensure our food was safe.

I wish I could write the full story, but I’m short this is an amazing experience with the gluten free Detroit style! They can make cheese sticks, pizza with almost every topping, and cinnamon sticks!! And the best part is it’s fluffy!! Not your normal thin crust! Absolutely worth the try.
And to answer the question you’ll ask when you bite into it…. YES, it’s gluten free!
“There’s no way this is gluten free.”
We split two gluten free Detroit style pizzas, the brussels sprouts, and cheese bread. I can die happy having found this place!
I ate here twice while in San Antonio and was fine both times. The wait staff was knowledgeable.
Their gf pizza is incredible. They can also do gf breadsticks. The tomato sauce is fresh and full of flavor. I’ve eaten here 10+ times and never had an issue with cross contamination.
I had ordered the GF cheese sticks. ABSOLUTELY AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS 🤩 the bread was soft & spongy. 10/10 would get again
I’ve gone to the via 313, off of 1604 and shaenfield rd, twice and had no allergic reactions. I’m a difficult customer to order with I’m allergic to gluten, egg and dairy. Our waitress who was a red head was absolutely amazing!! She went above and beyond! She validated all of my worries concerning my allergies and put a note on my order as well as going to the kitchen to personally tell the chef about all of my allergies. Come time for dessert she said she had talked to the chef and that he was able to make me the hockey sticks if I wanted them, which they tasted amazing!
Edit: I got extremely sick for a week after eating here.
Excellent service and delicious pizza. They seemed to take the allergy seriously. I am also dairy free and vegetarian so I got the veggie pizza with dairy free cheese. So good!
No cross contamination 1st visit , second visit was crossed and sick for 3 days. So not sure now if they can be safe and consistent.
This was the best pizza I have eaten since being diagnosed as being gluten intolerant. The crust was spongy, crusty on the edges, and full of flavor. The pizza is delicious! The waitress assured me of the safety precautions they take in their kitchen to help prevent cross contact. I will be returning to this restaurant.
What a wonderful experience! A thick crust gluten free and dairy free pizza, cheesy bread and cinnamon sticks. Delicious!! All pizza topping are GF except the meatballs.
It did take a very long time for our food to come out. Next time we’ll order the cinnamon sticks as soon as the other food comes out.
Finally a thick crust pizza! Pizza and breadsticks were so good!
Super yummy pizza and pumpkin stix. Very gluten free knowledgeable. Service was great!
I’ve been here several times and have never gotten sick. Lots of options for pizzas and toppings. Staff seems knowledgeable about gluten and they are good about asking about allergies when you order gluten free. Honestly, one of the best gf pizza crusts you can get here in town. It’s soft and chewy, with a crispy top - no cardboard crust here!
The Detroit-style gluten free pizzas are small but very good. I’d go there again.
