Jennifer Aniston was caught on a romantic Malibu date with her new love interest Jim Curtis on Monday evening.
The two were spied as they left the Japanese restaurant Nobu, where the Kardashians often dine.
Aniston, 56, looked sheepish as she was seen following her salt-n-pepper fox beau Curtis, 50, who works as a life coach and hypnotist, out of the pricey eatery.
But they were not alone.
Along with them was Aniston’s Friends costar Courteney Cox, 61, who was in the company off her longtime on-and-off fiancé Johnny McDaid, 49, a musician that is best known for his work in the band Snow Patrol.
Aniston and Curtis left Nobu and later Cox was seen with McDaid as the four tried to keep a low profile after dining on premium grade-A sushi by the sea.

The ex-wife of Brad Pitt had on a cozy pale gray sweater and worn-in light blue jeans with brown sandals and her highlighted hair down.
Her date was dressed casually in a blue jacket over a gray top with olive gray slacks and white sneakers as he continued to use his cane for an unknown reason; in the past he has said he has lesions on his spinal cord.
Cox, who used to be wed to David Arquette, had on an acid-washed blue denim jacket wore open over a black top and slacks with black heels. Her raven locks were worn back with curtain bangs and hoop earrings.
And her rocker boyfriend was in all black as he put his hand on Cox’s back.
Daily Mail reported earlier this month that Aniston and Curtis bonded over their love for dogs.
Curtis has a rescue senior pooch named Odie which he has called ‘the world’s cutest dog.’ Aniston’s beloved canines are Clyde and Lord Chesterfield.
Turns out that Curtis having a rescue dog was very appealing for canine-lover Aniston. ‘Jennifer really bonded with Jim over his love for rescue dogs, she appreciates that,’ said an insider.

‘Instead of dating around he rescued Odie which gave him so much love he didn’t have to run around with random women, he had been single for a while, so when he met Jennifer, he had a clean slate,’ a source tells the Daily Mail.
‘Odie really kept him from settling and allowed him to wait for his dream girl, Jennifer. He believes Odie healed a part of him and prepared him for true love,’ noted the source.
And it helps that their dogs get along. ‘Odie loves Clyde and Lord Chesterfield,’ added the source. ‘Together Jennifer and Jim are happy fur parents with their cute dogs.’
They also both spend time trying to help canines: ‘They are active in dog charities and helping get aid and supplies for dogs. It really makes them feel good to help out less privileged pooches.’
The Cake actress and the hypnotist have been together for several months already and made their debut as a couple in July.
Curtis is known as a life coach and love ‘guru,’ and he describes himself as a ‘transformational coach and hypnotherapist.’

Aniston appears to be intimately familiar with his work, as she has been following him on social media for nearly two years.
Jennifer — who was previously married to Brad Pitt from 2000 until 2005, and then Theroux from 2011 until 2017 — sparked romance rumors after she was spotted with the bearded hunk on vacation in Mallorca, Spain, during Fourth of July weekend.
‘She’s dating Jim and is very happy, but she’s still taking things slowly,’ a source previously told the Daily Mail.
The insider added that Jen ‘feels very connected to Jim, as they have the same level of emotional intelligence, unlike some of her previous suitors.’
Following the couple’s recent Mallorca getaway, Curtis gushed about how much it meant to him with his fans.
‘I am back from vacation and what an experience!’ he wrote in his newsletter, according to Page Six.
‘When I was sick, sad, stuck and in pain I never thought I would have the abundance, joy and love I now experience on a daily basis.
‘I just took one step, made one decision and the next followed — now I look back and realize, oh! That course, that life change, that pain, resulted in this magic.’
Jim added: ‘The same life that brings struggle also brings opportunity. The possibility of something better — more aligned, more free, more meaningful — is always here.’
Curtis has had his own share of life-changing challenges.

Beginning in the summer of 1995, right after his freshman year at the University of New Hampshire, when he was hit with severe nerve pain that would stay with him for years.
An MRI later revealed lesions on his spinal cord, a diagnosis that pushed Curtis to pivot from his ‘frat guy athlete’ persona and explore a different path focused on healing and personal transformation.
He credits a university professor for setting that new course into motion. ‘He taught me to meditate and introduced me to the idea of mindfulness: focusing on just being present,’ Curtis shared in a 2017 interview.
Curtis was previously married to Rachel Napolitano, though their relationship reportedly ended not long after she gave birth to their son, Aidan, who is now a teenager.
This comes after Aniston and Cox were seen in a new selfie last week shared on Instagram. The pair leaned in close to the camera with matching soft, demure closed-lip smiles.
‘We look so cute next to each other… so do they,’ the pair captioned the joint post, which quickly drew thousands of likes.
The actresses have been inseparable since Friends catapulted them to global stardom in the 1990s. Over the years, they’ve supported each other through marriages, milestones and Hollywood’s ups and downs.
