The Jenny from the Block star marked the milestone on Wednesday - days after she threw a massive Bridgerton-themed fancy dress party last weekend - and the actor-pop star went out that night for a meal at Nick + Toni's in East Hampton with her mum Guadalupe Rodríguez, her manager Benny Medina and several friends.
"(Jennifer dined) with five people ... She was polite and nice with the staff ... The owners seemed to know J.Lo was coming, and they slipped her in the back door to avoid the paparazzi out front," a source told New York Post column PageSix.
"Several guests made warm toasts to the birthday girl ... She looked happy. But she wasn't dancing on the table; they were not raucous."
The source said Lopez's husband Ben Affleck did not attend the dinner.
He was also absent from her Bridgerton party.
Other guests dining in the restaurant are said to have included Alec Baldwin and his wife Hilaria and Michael J Fox and his wife Tracy Pollan.
Earlier in the day, Lopez shared an emotional message with fans thanking them for their well wishes on her special day.
In a post on Instagram, she wrote: "I really do have the best, most amazing fans in the world. I could never express how moved I am or how incredibly blessed I feel to have all of you be a part of my life. Thank you sooooo very much."
