Jennifer Aniston enjoyed a romantic candle-lit dinner with a mystery man on Saturday night.

The former "Friends" star - who has been single since she split from Vince Vaughn last October - shared an intimate meal with a sandy-haired hunk at Santa Monica's One Pico restaurant in the Shutters Hotel.

A source told PEOPLE magazine: "They arrived at 8 p.m. and the guy caressed Jennifer's back as they waited for a table.

"They took three hours to eat dinner, drinking San Pellegrino, talking constantly and holding hands over the table. Jennifer only had eyes for him."

A representative for the star - whose ex-husband is Brad Pitt - declined to comment on her new man.

The next day Jennifer attended a beach party alone, where she met up with her former "Friends" co-star Courteney Cox, her husband David Arquette and their daughter Coco. The 38-year-old actress then went back to Courteney and David's home accompanied by her dog Dolly to join a dozen other guests for a small gathering.

Close friend Kathy Najimy said: "Jennifer is doing so well. She's fantastic, couldn't be better."
