Ben Affleck spent time with two of his three kids on Saturday night in Los Angeles.
The 54-year-old actor was joined by Violet, 20, and Fin, 17, as they dined at the Santa Monica restaurant Fia, where his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 54, recently enjoyed a date night with John Miller.
Absent from the scene was Affleck and Garner’s youngest child, 14-year-old son Samuel.
The Boston native was on dad duty in a light blue button-up shirt, black pants, and loafers.
Violet, meanwhile, wore a light-colored cardigan, knee-length red skirt, and sneakers. She added a white KN95 mask, which she often wears as the result of a post-viral condition she suffered in 2019.
Fin, born Seraphina, was clad in a striped sweater, dark overalls, and sneakers for the family outing.

Earlier this month, exes Affleck and Garner reunited to celebrate the Oscar-winning star’s birthday with their brood.
It came weeks after his mom Chris Affleck’s death, who passed away on June 2 at age 83 following a battle with pancreatic cancer.
Affleck and Garner were married from 2005 until their separation in 2015, and their divorce was finalized in 2018.
The friendly exes have been known to spend holidays together post-divorce.
And in July, the 13 Going On 30 actress made rare comments praising her ex-husband, calling him an ‘incredible’ co-parent.
Asked by Entertainment Weekly about ‘the minutiae of raising a family and working,’ she said she ‘absolutely’ ‘got caught up’ in motherhood, but described her ex as a ‘great partner.’
‘But my kids are a little bigger [now]. Their dad has become this incredible co-parent,’ she gushed.
The Alias alum added elsewhere in the interview: ‘When [my kids] were younger, I wouldn’t have done a couple of weeks away without taking them with me. Now they’re in high school. You can’t really do that anymore. But they can stay with their dad. He’s wonderful. He takes care of them. He’s a great partner in that way. And that’s very freeing.’

For his part, Affleck dated Deep Water co-star Ana de Armas for about one year, and was later married to Jennifer Lopez from 2022 to 2024.
Earlier this year, Netflix acquired his AI start-up company InterPositive.
In a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing in July, the streamer stated that it paid $587 million in cash for the company, per The Hollywood Reporter.
According to the outlet, the information was provided in the company’s form 10-Q, stating that ‘in March 2026, the Company completed an acquisition which was accounted for as a business combination for a total purchase price of approximately $587 million, consisting of cash consideration.’
In a statement, Affleck said he ‘couldn’t be happier’ with the deal after quietly founding the LA-based company in 2022 with a 16-person team of engineers, researchers and creatives.
