We propose a metasurface-based shadow tomography protocol to measure the properties of quantum states efficiently. We design Si nano-disks based metagratings that act as efficient polarizing beam splitters and can distinguish orthogonal polarizations. This allows for the measurement of all necessary quantum state observables in parallel, reducing the time needed to characterize quantum states of photonic qubits and minimizes the impact of decoherence. We validate our protocol by performing numerical simulations of a two-qubit system with metasurface as quantum detectors. We show that the protocol can accurately estimate properties of quantum states with few measurements and without reconfiguring optical setups.
