Meta Osteria

We stopped by Meta Osteria for lunch and I completely forgot to take pictures of the food because we dove right in. Everything was that good. We started with the watermelon salad, which was fresh and flavorful. The shrimp parmesan with spaghetti was excellent, and the baked clams were a great addition to the meal. We paired it all with a glass of Douglas Hill California Merlot and Pellegrino sparkling water. Our waiter, Willie, was a great host and made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. The atmosphere feels like a true neighborhood spot, warm and inviting, like a local family restaurant. Definitely a place worth visiting if you’re in the area. 🍷🍝

Never tried Meta before, I always order the most basic thing off the menu from an Italian restaurant because chicken parm is the easiest but this was more like Salisbury steak with sauce and cheese instead, I don’t know anyone who wants a chicken cutlet this this, it was flavorful and the linguini pomodoro was good, but I just couldn’t eat the chicken that thick, you win some, you lose some, I def lost with this try, so if anyone wants to get chicken parm just know it’s going to be a thick breaded chicken breast with sauce and cheese

Let me start by saying the service was top notch and the fresh made bread with pesto and ricotta is great. So were this place fell short was on the Duck I had, Like most places it was over cocked making it a bit dried out. The rest of the meals were very good and all are at a reasonably price. Parking is a bit a problem but worth it for having a meal with friends and family or even that special date.

I had not been there in years. It was really very nice. The specials looked delicious. The food was excellent. Will go back!

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. The food was outstanding and the services was great! I don't recall the names of the gentlemen that worked the party, but they were very attentive to myself and all the guests. Everything went without a glitch. I cannot wait to go back!
