Forget partying the night away in a club.

The actress celebrated over a quiet dinner at Vinegar Hill House with Matthew Rhys and her two children, Willa, three, and River, seven, in New York City.

For the occasion at the quaint eatery, the birthday girl slipped into a soft cream sweater that draped loosely over her slender frame.

She offset the relaxed top with dark jeans, slouchy ankle boots, and added a splash of colour with a light pink rose tucked against her ear.  

The Felicity star looked every bit the doting parent as she held her daughter's hand, who was dressed in a playful white ballerina dress, leggings, and grey sweater.

Her The Americans co-star Matthew, who she has been dating for a year, arrived at the restaurant in the company of Keri's son, River.

Willa and River are Keri's children from her six year marriage to carpenter Shane Deary.

A few months after the former couple announced the split in 2013, it emerged Keri and Matthew began dating.

On screen, the actors play masters of disguise Philip and Elizabeth Jennings in the hit FX series The Americans, now into its third season.

The pair are undercover operatives working as part of the shadowy Russian spy circle, Directorate S, yet living as Americans in plain sight.

The show, set in the 1980s at the height of the cold war between the US and the USSR, has steadily grown a solid fan base with Rolling Stone asking last month: 'Is The Americans TV's best drama?'

Despite its critical acclaim, The Americans is yet to win any awards during its two year run.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter last month, Matthew joked about the perceived snubs.

'We haven’t been sleeping with the right people,'

Before adding: 'We’re very happy with the critical acclaim it’s received, and it's justification and celebration enough.'
