Website Meta Description not showing in Google search

SOLVE

"Google's generation of page titles and descriptions (or "snippets") is completely automated and takes into account both the content of a page as well as references to it that appear on the web." ...

Heads up: Search engines won't always use your meta description
"In some cases, search engines may overrule the meta description a webmaster has specified in the HTML of a page. Precisely when this will happen is unpredictable, but it often occurs when Google doesn't think the existing meta description adequately answers a user's query and identifies a snippet from the target page that better matches a searcher's query."

SOLVE

When Google is not showing the meta description of your website in SERP so that means that your description is badly written and inappropriate according to google. So Google will replace your meta description with your content written on that particular page. If you are using quotation marks in your content then Google will cut off the description in SERP at the quotation marks.
