The grand opening will feature a ribbon-cutting ceremony, a prize tent, a DJ performance, and a photo booth pop-up. Additionally, 25% of the opening day sales will be donated to Target Hunger, a Houston nonprofit dedicated to providing food to those in need.

The menu includes classic Detroit-style pizzas like pepperoni and cheese, and specialties such as The Cadillac with prosciutto, gorgonzola, Parmesan, fig preserves, and balsamic glaze, and The Ambassador Bridge with pepperoni, sausage, garlic, oregano, and housemade ricotta. Via 313 also offers gluten-free vegan crusts and dairy-free cheese, as well as round Bar Style pizzas with thin crusts, like the Funkadelic Chicken and The Stooges, a vegetarian option.
