Ever wonder where the celebs go to unwind and enjoy a good meal? Well, we've got a spot for you! We recently ventured into the heart of the West Village to check out Via Carota, a restaurant whispered to be a favorite of none other than Taylor Swift! And let me tell you, it definitely lives up to the hype.
From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in a warm, cozy, and intimate atmosphere. Imagine exposed brick walls, vintage-style furniture, and soft lighting—it’s like stepping into a charming Italian hideaway. They even have a cute outdoor area with string lights, perfect for those balmy nights.
Now, let's talk about the real star of the show: the food! Via Carota is known for its delicious Italian eats, and everything we tried was absolutely divine. If you go, you HAVE to try their famous Cacio e Pepe—it's a simple yet incredibly satisfying pasta dish. Plus, it even comes with a side of bread.
Looking for something to share? Their Grilled Artichokes are amazing, although a bit pricey at $40, the video reviewer noted that "it was worth it!" You also won’t want to miss the recommended Green Salad appetizer; it’s fresh and delicious, and a great way to start your meal. And to end things on a sweet note, the Tiramisu is a must-try – seriously, the espresso is oozing out!
While the prices aren't budget-friendly (our meal came out to about $100 for two, drinks excluded), the experience was worth every penny. But hey, sometimes you gotta treat yourself, right? Especially when you're dining like a star!
And don’t just take my word for it. On a scale of 1 to 10, the video creators gave Via Carota a whopping 9.1! It's safe to say we were completely charmed.
So, if you're looking for a special spot in NYC with great food, a cozy atmosphere, and a bit of celebrity buzz, then add Via Carota to your list. It’s perfect for a date night, a get-together with friends, or just a special treat for yourself. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!
Happy dining, everyone! And let us know what you thought when you go!
