Here is the steps:

1. Create sharepoint project and httphandler class

according the steps

2. Here is the code to create httphandler class in vs(using System.Web.Extentions), then deploy.

using System;
using Microsoft.SharePoint;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy;
using System.Collections.Generic;
namespace Testashx
{
    public partial class Test : IHttpHandler
    {
        public bool IsReusable
        {
            get { return true; }
        }
        //http://webUrl/_layouts/15/handler/Test.ashx?featuredProduct=1
        public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
        {

            JavaScriptSerializer jsonSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
            context.Response.ContentType = "application/json";
            int featured = int.Parse(context.Request.QueryString.Get("featuredProduct"));
            List<Product> jsonResult = new List<Product>();
            string caml = string.Empty;
            try
            {
                SPContext currentContext = SPContext.Current;
                SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web;
                SPList list = web.Lists["Products"];
                caml = "<Where>"+
                             "<Eq>"+
                              " <FieldRef Name='FeaturedProduct' /> "+
                               "<Value Type='Boolean'>" + featured + "</Value>" +
                            "</Eq>"+
                      "</Where>";

                SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
                query.Query = caml;
                //query.ViewFields = "<ViewFields><FieldRef Name='ProductCategory'/><FieldRef Name='Size'/></ViewFields>";
                SPListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(query);
                foreach (SPListItem item in items)
                {
                    Product product = new Product();
                    if (item["ProductCategory"] as TaxonomyFieldValueCollection != null)
                    {
                        TaxonomyFieldValueCollection taxonomyFieldValueCollection = item["ProductCategory"] as TaxonomyFieldValueCollection;
                        if (taxonomyFieldValueCollection.Count > 0)
                        {
                            product.ProductCategory = taxonomyFieldValueCollection[0].Label;
                        }
                    }
                    product.Size = item["Size"].ToString();
                    jsonResult.Add(product);
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                context.Response.Write(ex.Message);
            }

            context.Response.Write(jsonSerializer.Serialize(jsonResult));
        }
    }
    class Product
    {
        public string ProductCategory { get; set; }
        public string Size { get; set; }
    }
}

3. In client, here is the code for call service

   $.ajax({
        url: "http://webUrl/_layouts/15/handler/Test.ashx?

featuredProduct=0",
        type: "get",
        dataType:"json",
        success: function (data) {

            var html = "";
            $.each(data, function (index, key) {
                html += "<div>" + key.ProductCategory + "</div>";
                html += "<div>" + key.Size + "</div>";
            });
            $("#myDiv").append(html) ;

        }
    });

Note: "featuredProduct=0" is Variable
