The family-owned restaurant will serve pizzas, burgers, pastas, salads and appetizers. Figaro’s will also feature a bar with 24 beers on tap, Harper said.
“It’s going to be gourmet pizza with fresh, high-quality ingredients,” Harper said. “That’s really the theme. That’s something people are interested in these days—making sure they’re getting the highest quality and freshest ingredients. That’s what we’re striving for.”
The restaurant will feature a large patio as well.
Figaro’s is an Oregon-based restaurant chain, but Harper said he is working to make the San Marcos location unique.
“I’m going to try to work in as many things as I can to give it that more local, San Marcos feel,” Harper said. “Whether that’s some of the items on the menu or décor, we’re going to have a San Marcos vibe to us.”
