A California woman has become the latest victim of alleged dine-and-dash-dater, who is accused of repeatedly skipping out on dates before the bill arrives.

The woman, who does not want to be named, said she unwittingly joined LA's most exclusive - and miserable - club on Sunday, when Paul Gonzales fled after eating a small feast at BJ's in Pasadena.

The woman met the handsome Gonzales on the dating app Bumble, and said he sent flattering texts before inviting her to dinner.

All bills no thrills: Gonzales took his date to BJ's in Pasadena (pictured) and ordered $50 of steak, wine, shrimp, salad and a baked potato before disappearing to 'take a phone call'

Perhaps she should have been wary when he ordered around $50 of food for himself alone: 'A glass of Pinot, a Caesar salad with a side of shrimp, a steak, and a baked potato.'

That's $50 of food - not including tax and tip.

With just half a potato left to go, Gonzales excused himself to take a call on his cell phone - and never returned.

'The waiter came back and said, "He's not out there, is this a first date?" she told CBS Los Angeles.

'And I said, "Yes, this is a first blind date," and he said, "He's gone."'

High steaks action: Diane Guilmette is a previous victim of the alleged dine-and-dash bandit. she said she ended up paying $163 for their meal at a Morton's Steakhouse last year

BJ's paid for his meal, she said, only asking her to pay for his wine.

But that doesn't make up for becoming the latest in a string of victims.

In August last year another woman who did not wish to be named told CBS that Gonzales fled during their first date at a restaurant in Long Beach.

'This guy is obnoxious,' she thought, as he ordered $100 of food just for himself.

'First of all, who orders two entrees? But he excused it by saying he was a bodybuilder.'

He then went to the bathroom and, apparently flushed with success, left.

His first known alleged victim to approach the media, Diane Guilmette, had a similar experience at a Morton's Steakhouse in Burbank in August last year.

Criminal profile? Diane agreed to meet up with Gonzales after he sent some very complementary messages to her on the Plenty of Fish app (pictured)

'He ordered a lot of food,' she told CBS 2. 'He had an appetizer. He ordered a steak. This restaurant is all al la carte.

'He even ordered a couple sides, a glass of wine. So he was looked like he was really enjoying himself,' Guilmette said.

Then he went for a phone call and left her with a $163 bill.

She tried to message him on Plenty of Fish, the dating app they met on, but he blocked her.

When she took to social media to share her story, along with pictures of her date, Guilmette said several other women came forward to say that he had done the same thing to him.

Each time he had chosen a high-end restaurant and sneaked out, leaving them with the bill.

One woman, who did not want to be named, was left with a bill for more than $100 after he 'went to the bathroom' and never came back.

Police also say that Gonzales cut and run from a hairdresser's salon in February last year after getting his hair trimmed and colored. He was still wearing the hairdresser's smock when he ran out, they said.

He has two bench warrants out for his arrest for not showing up to court to answer for charges of petty theft and driving without a valid license, the LA County district attorney's office said.

He has already been to jail several times for misdemeanor arrests.
