The Royal Dragon Restaurant (Thai: มังกรหลวง|link=no) of Bangkok, Thailand was recorded in the Guinness World Records as the world's largest restaurant in 1992. The 8.35acres restaurant had seating for 5,000 diners.[1] It was exceeded in capacity by the current record holder, the Bawabet Dimashq (Damascus Gate) Restaurant, which opened in 2002 in Damascus, Syria, with just over 6,000 seats. The restaurant closed in ~2022 and is now a HomePro, however some buildings still stand, like the employee residence.
Although the Royal Dragon billed itself as a seafood restaurant, it served more than 1,000 Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and Western-style dishes.
