There is no harm if sometimes you are compelled to eat with them, but you should not make it a habit as it is makrooh.
وفي الھندیۃ: ولم یذکر محمد رحمہ اللہ تعالی الأکل مع المجوسي ومع غیرہ من أھل الشرف أنہ ھل یحل أم لا؟ وحکی من الحاکم الإمام عبد الرحمن الکاتب أنہ إن ابتلي بہ المسلم مرۃ أو مرتین فلا باس بہ وأما الدوام علیہ فیکرہ، کذا في المحیط (5:347)
Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
