"Throughout the entire meal, Cameron and Benji couldn't keep their hands off each other," an eyewitness said according to RadarOnline.com. "They were whispering to each other and laughing, just having the best time together."
The "The Other Woman" star was first linked to the former Good Charlotte singer three weeks ago when they were spotted leaving a Los Angeles gym together. It is unclear how long the couple have been dating, however, insiders claim the pair are very fond of one another.
"Everyone else at the table was talking and catching up, but Benji and Cameron were completely removed from the conversation. They were totally consumed with each other," the source said.
"Benji kept his arm around her, and she'd just rest her head on his shoulder and stare at him, grinning. It was obvious that she's crazy about him," the source went on, adding, "I wouldn't be surprised if they are together for a very, very long time."
Diaz has been spotted bonding with socialite Nicole Richie, who is married to Madden's twin brother Joel, in recent months. Sources claim Richie helped set the couple up.
"Cameron is pretty into him... she likes the bad boys! But the thing is, Benji's actually a really nice guy," a source told X17Online.
"They've been having fun together, making sure it doesn't get too serious too fast," the insider said.
Prior to Madden, Diaz was linked to New York Yankees player Alex Rodriguez and singer Justin Timberlake. Madden, who stars as a Mentor on the Australian version of "The Voice," was once linked to socialite Paris Hilton and Australian radio host Sophie Monk.
