The actor drove himself and his rumoured love away from the restaurant and neither seemed fazed by the waiting photographers, showing they aren’t worried about going public with their reunion.
Sara and Twilight star Taylor first dated in high school before the 20-year-old actor found fame in the vampire film franchise.
Friends previously told US Weekly that the on/off couple 'have been hanging out a lot in LA, seeing a few shows and going to dinner' and it appears as if they have decided to give their romance another shot.
Nice guy Taylor is in the habit of keeping in touch with his exes, with former love and Abductio co-star Lily Collins praising him in a recent interview.
Lily – who was dumped by the actor in September - told Seventeen magazine: ‘He’s a talented actor and a gentleman. Taylor is very humble. He has so many fans and he never forgets that.
'He really appreciates the support that he’s gotten through the years, and he gives it right back — to me, that makes a good leading man.’
Similarly, Taylor has nothing but praise for Lily, saying: 'You can feel some sort of chemistry or a connection when you are reading a script with someone for the first time. And that was totally the case with Lily.'
Despite starring in one of the biggest teen franchises of all time, Taylor’s career seems to have taken a hit recently so it is understandable that he would return to someone who knew him before he found fame.
