Jack Wilshere was spotted in Mayfair alongside girlfriend Adriana Michael as he steps up his recovery from the broken leg which has kept him sidelined this season.
The Arsenal midfielder took Adriana, who he has been dating since earlier this year, to dinner at the popular Roka restaurant.
Wilshere, 23, underwent surgery in September on a hairline fracture of his left fibula.
He won't be back in action until at least December and may not play competitively again until the new year.
In August Arsene Wenger admitted he played Wilshere "too often" when he was younger.
“I always bring him back when he says he is ready and when the fitness coaches say he has the quantity of work behind," Wenger said.
“Maybe when he was younger we overplayed him because he was such a good player but now we are cautious with him.”
Wilshere is one of six players currently on Arsenal's treatment table, with Tomas Rosicky and Danny Welbeck also nursing long-term injuries.
Mathieu Flamini, Mikel Arteta and Laurent Koscielny are all also currently sidelined with minor injuries.
