Dakota Johnson turns 37 with Jennifer Lawrence at Via Carota

The actress celebrated with her A-list friend and friend's husband at the NYC hotspot, per Page Six photos.

Reported by Page Six. Dakota Johnson marked her 37th birthday Sunday evening at Via Carota in the West Village, fresh off her "Saturday Night Live" hosting gig. Page Six obtained exclusive photos of the actress arriving at the Italian restaurant.

Johnson wore a black dress with sheer lace panels down the front, paired with heels and a leather jacket with fur trim. She kept her hair pulled back and accessorized with layered necklaces, a bedazzled bag and a red mani-pedi. Her bodyguard was later spotted carrying a bouquet of pink and purple flowers and a Valentino shopping bag.

The party included Jennifer Lawrence and the "Hunger Games" star's husband, Cooke Maroney. Lawrence, 36, stunned in a white tee, a patterned skirt, animal-print slides and a sheer black cardigan. Maroney, 42, wore an unbuttoned dress shirt and slacks.

Taylor Swift didn't join them at the restaurant, but she did crash Johnson's "SNL" monologue the night before. Johnson called Swift "my literal therapist" onstage, and Swift joked back: "I'm not your therapist, actually. You just show up at my house once a week with an empty bottle of wine and ask me if I want some." After the show, Swift was photographed presenting Johnson with a blue birthday cake.

Johnson and Swift have been friends for a decade. Last month, Johnson co-starred with Colin Farrell in Swift's "Patient Zero" music video, calling it "the most fun thing on the planet" in a red carpet interview.
