My husband and I hosted our son’s first birthday at Meta last Saturday without ever trying the restaurant. I can’t begin to express how much we loved everything about them!! Roberto, the owner, was a pleasure to work with from day 1. He was extremely accommodating and reassuring that everything would be perfect.

Food was good. We had a few appetizers to start with at our table with friends. Eggplant Meatballs were good. We had the Baby Clams.. sauce was very thick compared to other clam dishes of white wine , butter, olive oil. “DONUTS” shrimp balls was good. Veal Chop was okay, thick brown sauce.. maybe a cheese base with Mash Potatoes which tasted more like mashed from a box. Rockfish was good. Service was excellent. We had Pistachio Tartufo and warm dark chocolate brownies with Vanilla / Chocolate Gelato.

The burrata appetizer was good but needed more eggplant and maybe a balsamic reduction for sweetness. The crispy prosciutto is so crispy but it looses some of the delicious flavor of prosciutto. The burrata itself was tasty. Came here specifically for the chicken parm raviolis. They were indeed delicious and very rich. I would probably get them again but maybe as an appetizer to share (however this would likely be way over my budget for a regular dinner out). As an entree they just didn’t have enough protein in them to actually fill me up for more than a half hour after eating. The linguini with clam sauce and shrimp was said to be very good. Service was excellent, your water will not even be close to empty at any time! Would maybe come back for a special occasion as prices are a bit high.

We ate here the Saturday before mother’s day. Made a reservation at 5 for 7 people(two were children under 5yrs). Highly reccomend a reservation because by the time we left it was packed! Ordered the calamari, bruschetta, pot of mussels and crab cappuccino (that was just my dads) to start. Everyone shared and it was just right. The veal chop sole was awesome and filling. The shrimp limoncello and peroni battered shrimp got good reviews from the table. The duck was very sweet and the chicken parm was hearty and delicious. Everything was paired with the Santa Maria Pinot Grigio. My mom was raving for the affagado espresso float but substituted the coffee with Kalua. Overall everyone enjoyed themselves and were happy. Our waitress was awesome as well. Susan I think.

One of the best “hidden gems” in Oceanside. Great Italian dishes. Everything is delicious. Fantastic service and a good local restaurant to eat or have cocktails at the bar.

This has always been one of my favorite places to eat. Surprisingly and sadly my visit on March 19 fell far short of my expectations
