Chris Martin and Jennifer Lawrence may have split October last year, but it seems there is still something there. 

The on-and-off couple, who started dating August, were seen emerging from L.A. resto Madeo after a simple, low-key dinner.

The couple arrived together, entering through the restaurant's back entrance so as not to attract everyone's attention. The 24-year-old Hunger Games actress and the 37-year-old Coldplay lead vocal were seated at a candlelit table, where they enjoyed bonding with each other for two hours while taking on several dishes and a dessert.

One onlooker told People that the couple seemed really happy as they "just focused on each other."

"They were smiling, talking and very friendly," the source said.  

While it's obvious that there remains something between the two, they have kept mum about the real status of their relationship.

The couple may have been busy with their own lives but one source describes their relationship as something "solid".

"They see each other when they can," the source added.  

One thing praiseworthy about Jennifer is the fact that she understands Chris has his kids and that his "children come first," another insider said.

"His relationship with Gwyneth is based around the family and it will always be a part of his life," the insider continued.
