Giving Back to “Friends of Hospice” with a Specialty Pizza Throughout February

Giving Back to “Friends of Hospice” with the Limited-Time Garbo’s Lobster Pizza

Favorite pizza spot, Via 313, is having a tasting op & giving back to “Friends of Hospice” with the limited-time Garbo’s Lobster Pizza.

Via 313, an authentic Austin-based Detroit-style pizza concept that debuted in the Alamo City in 2022, is dishing out a fan-favorite specialty throughout February, the Garbo’s Lobster Pizza.

This one-of-a-kind pizza features rich butter poached lobster, bacon, cheese, arugula and Old Bay’s seasoning. Most importantly, a portion of profits from the Lobster Pizza will be donated to Friends of Hospice – a San Antonio nonprofit dedicated to educating the community about hospice services through various local events and activities with a goal of continuing and expanding superior hospice care.

Warm up with their limited-time seasonal drinks! Try the Mexi-Mint Hot Chocolate (Tequila, Rumple Minze, and delicious hot chocolate) or the flavored Hot Toddies Brown Sugar available in TX.

Via 313 currently operates 17 full-service restaurants and two permanently placed trailers throughout Texas and the Salt Lake City area, with several more locations in the pipeline. Via 313 was dubbed “one of the very best pizzas” by Food and Wine Magazine,named “Independent Pizzeria of the Year” by Pizza Today™ and recognized as one of the “Top 10 Pizzas in America” by Food Network.

What’s in a name: Via 313— via meaning “by way of” and 313 being the area code of Detroit = Detroit pizza.

Detroit-style pizza is known for its rectangular shape and sauce across the top. Baked in a heavy pan similar to the auto parts trays found in Detroit in the 1940’s, the light, focaccia-like dough develops a golden crunch on the bottom. On top, cheese is spread to the very edge, so you can enjoy every bit… right to your fingertips. Sauce is ladled on just before serving, ensuring the cheese and dough crisp up perfectly during the bake.
