Neil Sedaka was photographed out for dinner just two nights before he passed away.

The legendary singer-songwriter was seen heading into Craig’s restaurant on Wednesday (February 25) in Los Angeles.

Neil was a frequent diner at the restaurant and there are many paparazzi sightings of him there from over the years. Photographers note that he was “in good spirits” during his final sighting.

After being rushed to the hospital on Friday morning, Neil sadly died at the age of 86.

“Our family is devastated by the sudden passing of our beloved husband, father and grandfather, Neil Sedaka,” the family said in a statement. “A true rock and roll legend, an inspiration to millions, but most importantly, at least to those of us who were lucky enough to know him, an incredible human being who will be deeply missed.”

RIP. We have sadly lost many stars already in 2026.
