Music

Recitals
The Dysart Petersham

Around our antique rosewood Bechstein grand piano

Our recital programme over several years quickly established a loyal following. 

We host a small number of private recitals over the year, where the personality and interpretation of acclaimed performers who have performed in some of the most notable venues around the World, including Wigmore and Carnegie, can be enjoyed in a salon environment. 

The presence of an audience grouped around the performer and only feet away is a rare pleasure for the performer, often playing music first composed and performed in intimate surroundings just like ours, where the directness of communication between performer and audience adds immeasurably to the music. 

Each recital now takes place on two consecutive evenings. 

On Sunday evenings there is a concert, 3 course dinner, with paired wines, with canapés and wine/beer/non alcoholic drinks served in the interval.

On the following Monday evenings, the recital is given again, with a glass of wine, beer, or soft drink served in the interval, included in the ticket price.

Audiences are limited to around 25 guests for each event.

Sunday evenings:
Doors: 5:30pm – Recital: 6:00pm – Dinner: 8:00pm approx.
Monday evenings:
Doors: 7:00pm – Recital: 7:30pm

The Dysart continues to be one of my absolutely favourite restaurants in London. Ingredients are impeccable, the kitchen technique is top notch and things are made the old-fashioned way, with stocks and sauces laboriously reduced rather than being poured out of a bought-in bottle from a company, as seems to be increasingly the case even in multi-starred London venues. The Dysart is the real deal.
Andy Hayler's Restaurant Guide
Andy Hayler's Restaurant Guide
A gorgeous Arts and Crafts building houses this warm, homely restaurant on the edge of Richmond Park. There's a natural ethos running throughout the highly seasonal cooking, which is best appreciated with the full tasting menu. Impeccably sourced ingredients and strong classical technique underpin assured, satisfying dishes where the boldly flavoured sauces are a highlight – be it honey and verjus with John Dory or a glossy sake sauce with Creedy Carver Duck. The warm, passionate service leaves no detail overlooked, and there are quarterly classical music recitals too.
MICHELIN GUIDE
MICHELIN Guide
The sense of restraint signals an alternative to the louder rhythms of London’s dining scene. Here, the narrative is not crafted from dramatic tableside flourishes, but from the confidence of a kitchen content to let its work be quietly persuasive. There is a thoughtfulness that permeates each element, from the harmonious construction of the courses to the unforced pacing of the meal as a whole. For those with a particular appreciation for nuance, The Dysart Petersham offers a dining experience where every plate is an articulation of both philosophy and craft.
