"A Greenwich Village icon since 1937, Minetta Tavern carries literary history and an old-world barroom vibe; when Swift visited in 2023 with Phoebe Bridgers she “really enjoyed” the food, raving over baked oysters, a foie gras amuse-bouche, and scallops (reportedly exclaiming “My god!” after her first oyster), and the restaurant remains best known for the Black Label Burger, often hailed as the gold standard." - Derin Yilmaz
