Denzel Washington dines with BET founder

Denzel Washington had a vegetarian dinner out in Hollywood, but the Oscar winner didn’t have to spend any green for it.

He and seven friends were spotted at Cleo at the Redbury Hotel Thursday night, chowing down on cauliflower, quinoa salad and Brussels sprouts. The group lingered long after the meal.

The bill, including wine, was near $1,000, but we’re told dinner guest and BET founder Robert Johnson picked up the tab.

Washington is set to star with Chloë Grace Moretz and Melissa Leo in the terror thriller “The Equalizer.”
