Chef Jeff Dysart

Chef At Home in San Diego

In 2017 I created 2c Chicago, an underground supper club where guests would come to my home for a formal chefs tasting menu. Now I want to bring that same experience to you. Thus creating 2 Seas Dining. With the goal of changing the way we view dining.

I want to bring Michelin-quality tasting menus to people's homes. When it comes to ingredients I source as much as possible locally while still representing the exotic ingredients you can expect to see on this level of dining.

Every guest is different and thus, every menu is different. Let's talk and I'll tailor an experience that is right for you.

Please note that proposals will be mostly vague because all requests are different and I want to hear from you about how we can tailor a menu specifically for you!

Requests more than 3 months in advance require communication prior to booking to be guaranteed.

I truly look forward to cooking for you.

A cooking secret...

I hired Chef Jeff Dysart as a gift for my parents, and he was incredible! Throughout the planing process, he was easy to work with and super responsive. For the event, he showed up ahead of time and was super prepared. My parents have nothing but positive things to say about them. They absolutely loved his food, especially the espresso martinis and ginger lemon grass shot! And the carbonara and wagyu! Everything was fabulous. They said he was very personable and loved chatting with him. Overall, super impressed with Chef Jeff and 10/10 recommend him. Will plan to use him in the future. Thank you, Chef Jeff! You were incredible.

This was my first time ever booking a private chef experience for my 1-year anniversary with my wife, and Chef Jeff was absolutely the best choice I could’ve made. He was punctual, friendly, and even went above and beyond by surprising my wife with flowers I had requested. The food was astonishing, and the entire experience was nothing short of amazing. Jeff doesn’t just provide incredible dishes — he creates a truly memorable experience. Thank you, Chef Jeff!

Chef Jeff is amazing! He was so organized and creative. In terms of food, we felt like we were at a Michelin starred restaurant only without having to leave our own home! The food was fresh and the flavors were complex yet clean. We are low carb - and he created a menu that was both low carb and shockingly delicious. I recommend the keto cheesecake! He has also somehow mastered seeming like a natural part of the house while he's there. We definitely plan to have him over again!

He was so amazing. He made the experience so personal and intimate to the occasion. The food was top tier and was equivalent to fine dinning. I will most definitely will be booking with this amazing chef again.

Chef Jeff was absolutely incredible!!! He made our anniversary so special. He was personable, sweet, funny, and made us feel like we were instant friends. His plating was stunning, but the taste of his food was OUT OF THIS WORLD! We loved the explanation of each dish and he was kind enough to tell us about his background and love of food. Chef Jeff exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t have dreamt of a better way to celebrate. We have already sung his praises to friends and family. We will be recommending him to everyone and hope to book him again soon!! Thank you Chef Jeff for such an incredible experience. My husband says you are a rare combination of gracious and hilarious.

Chef Jeff provided an amazing experience, and we look forward to booking another event.

We had the pleasure of enjoying an intimate, romantic dinner for two crafted by Chef Jeff, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first bite, it was clear we were in the hands of a true culinary artist. Each course was exquisitely composed—thoughtful, inventive, and tailored perfectly to our personal tastes and preferences. Beyond the exceptional food, what made the evening truly unforgettable was the warmth and presence of Chef Jeff himself. His gracious storytelling and passion for his craft added a rich layer of connection to the meal, turning dinner into an experience of art, culture, and human connection. Our expectations were not only met, but profoundly surpassed. We are already looking forward to planning our next evening with him—it’s a rare gift to find someone who can so effortlessly blend Michelin-level technique with heartfelt hospitality.

We had Chef Jeff come to our house to do a private dinner for my wife and me on a combined birthday/anniversary celebration and he was awesome about crafting a menu that was unique and exciting, but also worked for our budget. He arrived on time, with all of the equipment he needed and even brought his own cutlery and plates for serving us. The food was all delicious, the preparation was extremely professional and the whole experience felt like a high end restaurant dining experience, but with the comfort of being in our home. You can tell he is passionate about his craft and has exceptional experience. We plan to hire him again in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a private chef experience for a date night or a group dining experience.

Jeff was amazing. Absolute pleasure having him cook for my wife and I. Food was spectacular - we would give 10 stars if we could. We will be recommending him to friends. If you’re looking for a chef, do yourself a favor and book him

Chef Jeff was incredible, great to collaborate with, plan, and execute an amazing meal. Highly recommend

Very friendly and professional. Loved the experience and can't wait to do it again!

10 out of 10 - chef Jeff Dysart was amazing. He prepared us a 10 course meal that was out of this world. Flavors were awesome, plating was beautiful, and the knowledge behind what we were eating was great! I am recommending him to any and all. He will not disappoint.

Chef Jeff put together a super creative tasting menu for our group and kept the evening fun and full of delicious food. Would definitely recommend ❤️
