Katie Holmes appears to be moving on after her split last year from Jamie Foxx. She’s reportedly dating New York City chef Emilio Vitolo, 33, and they’ve been spotted on a few public date nights in the city. The pair was first captured by TMZ grabbing dinner at the Mediterranean restaurant Antique Garage in Manhattan. That was followed by a makeout session in the outdoor dining area of Peasant Restaurant, as reported by the Daily Mail.
Ahead, here’s what we know about Vitolo, including his celebrity hotspot restaurant and close bond with Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner.
He’s a chef at a celebrity favorite Italian spot.
Vitolo and Holmes’ dinner dates were no doubt delicious, considering his post as chef at Emilio’s Ballato in Soho. According to an InStyle profile, his father, Emilio Vitolo Sr., opened the Italian restaurant in the early ’90s. The business is a family affair for the Vitolos, as both his parents and two brothers work alongside him.
“It’s a seven-day-a-week commitment,” he told the outlet. “If you’re going to do a restaurant the right way, you always have to be there.” The one exception: Sundays, when Vitolo says his father takes the day off and his Peruvian mother cooks.

The restaurant is quite the celebrity hotspot and has hosted high-profile guests like Whoopi Goldberg, Rihanna, Justin Bieber, Bradley Cooper, Lenny Kravitz, and even former President Barack Obama. According to its Facebook, Emilio’s Ballato doesn’t take reservations, but does have an outdoor dining area in compliance with NYC’s COVID-19 safety restrictions.

He’s an actor.
When he’s not serving A-listers pasta, Vitolo also has an acting career. He’s appeared in several movies and TV shows, including a six-episode arc of Royal Pains, a guest spot on Inside Amy Schumer, and a role in the 2019 indie film Tapestry.

He has a lot of celebrity friends.
During his downtime, Vitolo hangs out with several high-profile friends. Everyone from Danny DeVito to Omar Epps to Cuba Gooding Jr. has graced his Instagram feed. Most notably, Vitolo has close ties to Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner. In 2018, they spent New Year’s Eve together and he was on hand to celebrate Jonas’s 30th birthday last August. Vitolo has also made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon alongside Jonas and referred to him as “my brotha from Anotha motha” on IG.

He and Holmes follow each other on Instagram.
Although they haven’t posted about each other on social media yet, Holmes and Vitolo do follow each other on Instagram. Back in July, he commented two dancing women emojis on a photo Holmes posted on set for her movie The Secret. Prior to their new relationship, Holmes quietly dated Jamie Foxx on-and-off for years before their August 2019 split. A source told People at the time that their six-year romance “ran its course.” The insider added, “This industry is very tough on relationships. Jamie thinks Katie is an incredible human being. They had a very, very deep connection. They brought each other a lot of joy and laughter.”

His dog has an Instagram.
Until this couple goes Instagram official, you can enjoy the online presence of Vitolo’s Rottweiler, Lil Franky. He’s got his own Instagram account, with a bio that describes him as “Nolita’s Finest Rottie 🇮🇹.” The dog frequently sports a blue bandana and poses with Vitolo on the page.
