Which is better — Meta Robot tags or robots.txt?

robots.txt is better. Because it restricts Google bots to crawl any page.

Robots. txt files are best for disallowing a whole section of a site, such as a category whereas a meta tag is more efficient at disallowing single files and pages.

Robots.txt is better compared to meta robot tag.

Robots. txt files are best for disallowing a whole section of a site, such as a category whereas a meta tag is more efficient at disallowing single files and pages. You could choose to use both a meta robots tag and a robots.

Robots.txt files aren't exchangeable so, you need to use robots.txt and Meta robots tags are provide the exact direction for web crawlers to index your website or pages.
Add the page into the Robots.txt file but the search engine still shows the site in SERP therefore, you should have to use Meta robots tags to remove it from the SERP.
