Gwyneth Paltrow steps out for dinner at iconic Italian restaurant

Gwyneth Paltrow was seen leaving Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica on Friday evening following a dinner outing at the celebrity-favored Italian restaurant known for its discreet location and star-studded clientele.

The 53-year-old Shakespeare in Love star arrived in a laid-back, stylish ensemble that included a tan leather bomber jacket paired with classic jeans, blending casual comfort with understated Hollywood chic.

Earlier in the day, Paltrow had been present at the AFI Awards Luncheon, a high-profile entertainment industry event, where she was photographed interacting with prominent actors including Leonardo DiCaprio and Jacob Elordi. 

According to Daily Mail, the lunch marked a return to public appearances for Paltrow after sharing anecdotes about her past with DiCaprio from decades earlier.

Giorgio Baldi, a Tuscan-style Italian restaurant tucked away in the Pacific Palisades, has long been a go-to destination for celebrities seeking an intimate dining experience. 

Over the years, the eatery has attracted A-list names ranging from Beyoncé and Rihanna to Tom Hanks and Taylor Swift, bolstering its reputation as one of Los Angeles’s most exclusive yet low-key culinary spots.
