Swift wore the fall-inspired outfit with her hair in a ponytail, red lipstick, a layered necklace and small gold earrings.

The West Village eatery states on its website that it is known for “gorgeous cuts of prime rib, fresh seafood, and strong drinks.” Inside, guests will find “crystal chandeliers, plush leather seating, and paintings lining dark wood walls.”

1989 (Taylor’s Version) marks Swift’s fourth re-release in her extensive discography. It comes nine years after Swift first dropped the original crossover pop album and includes five previously unheard tracks from the vault.

The “Out of the Woods” singer announced that she would be dropping the new project on the final night of the first leg of her Eras tour in the U.S.

“The last time that I was so pleasantly surprised by some stuff that you guys did was when I announced that I was going to be re-recording. That was something that I expected to be just a me thing, just a personal thing,” she said during the onstage announcement.

“Since I was a teenager, I wanted to own my music. The way to do it was to re-record my albums, and the way that you have embraced … that you have celebrated, that you really decided that it was your fight too, and that you were 100 percent behind me … I will never stop thanking you for that,” she added.

 

In a follow-up post on Instagram, she shared that the project was one of her favorites thus far due to the inclusion of its bonus tracks. “I can’t believe they were ever left behind,” she added. “But not for long!” Swift also reflected on things like dating and sexuality in the new album’s liner notes.

“I had become the target of slut shaming — the intensity and relentless of which would be criticized and called out if it happened today. The jokes about my amount of boyfriends. The trivialization of my songwriting as if it were a predatory act of a boy crazy psychopath … I had to make it stop because it was really starting to hurt,” she wrote as she looked back at the time when she was 24 years old.

These days, Swift has been in a budding new romance with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. A source tells PEOPLE that things are “quickly turning more serious” between Swift and the NFL star, 34.

“They share a strong work ethic and have a huge appreciation for life and their careers, strong family bond and values,” says the source.

Fans who are looking to celebrate the new album can catch a screening of Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour Concert Film, which broke records during its opening weekend. Swift also gave fans the ability to take a page out of her lookbook by releasing a limited edition cardigan in honor of the new music.
