The businesses, partners and volunteers that bring life and activity to the downtown recently received some love from The San Marcos Main Street Program.
At the program’s 8th Annual Love Downtown Awards, held Friday, Feb. 24, recognition and awards were presented in several categories including the Business of the Year. That honor went to The Halal Project, a family-owned and operated restaurant that features Middle Eastern cuisine. Co-owners Anwar Ali Thabatah and Mohammad Othman Zakzok opened their restaurant, located at 312 University Drive, across from Texas State University in October 2022.
In a telephone interview, Zakzok said the choice of sites was helped by a family member purchasing property in San Marcos.
