Nothing like dinner with dad!

Last night, Kristen Stewart stopped by Beauty & Essex restaurant in NYC for a Thursday-night dinner date with her father, John Stewart, and another woman. The 23-year-old actress and her small group came in around 9 p.m. In typical fashion, Stewart was dressed casually in a T-shirt, jeans and glasses.

According to a source, "They engaged in casual, relaxed conversations the whole night and enjoyed Beauty & Essex favorites such as the Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup Dumplings. K.Stew was very laid back and was especially nice and polite to their server."
