Taylor Swift is enjoying her downtime with her close friends and family. The 14-time Grammy winner stepped out for dinner with actress Dakota Johnson at Via Carota in the West Village on Thursday, May 29.

Swift, 35, wore a black dress with thin straps covered in shimmering flowers paired with strappy heels. She completed the look by pulling her hair back into a ponytail and wearing red lipstick. Johnson, 35, wore a black dress topped with a leather jacket and her hair up.

The two were joined by their brothers, Austin Swift, 33, and Jesse Johnson, 42. Swift entered and exited the restaurant solo, per fan videos shared online. This isn't her first time at the Italian restaurant. She was spotted there in 2023 with frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff and his now-wife Margaret Qualley.

The "Cruel Summer" singer also has frequented the restaurant for girls' nights out.

The New York hotspot outing comes a week after the singer was in Florida "to support and spend time" with Travis Kelce as he trains for the upcoming NFL season, a Kelce source told PEOPLE.

Swift and Kelce, 35, were spotted out on a dinner date in Harry's Bar & Restaurant in West Palm Beach, Fla. on Friday, May 23. "Travis was working on Friday before his dinner date with Taylor," the source told PEOPLE. "He left early to go meet her."

"Travis still seems very happy with Taylor," the source added. Earlier this month, Swift and Kelce joined their families in Philadelphia for Mother's Day Brunch at Talula's Garden.

A source told PEOPLE in April that Swift and Kelce were taking advantage of their time off between making music and the NFL season.

"They have been traveling nonstop and very much enjoy it," the source told PEOPLE at the time. "They are making the most of their time off together. They are hanging out with friends, too. It's a special time for them."

The source added that the couple, who began dating in 2023, were "very serious and in sync." "They value the same things. Right now, the focus is very much on private time out of the spotlight."

Swift wrapped up her whirlwind Eras Tour in December 2024. Kelce, meanwhile, had an eventful NFL season with the Kansas City Chiefs as they advanced to the Super Bowl in February. They lost to the Philadelphia Eagles and failed to clinch a three-peat of championships.
