Venue visit #4: Dynasty Dragon SS2 Mall (closed)

Let's move on to venue number 4 - Dynasty Dragon Seafood Restaurant located in SS2 Mall. They have other outlets located in IOI Puchong, Berjaya Times Square, Summit USJ, Klang Parade etc. In our opinion, the outlet in SS2 Mall has the biggest advantage for us, in terms of food reviews and location. 

We arrived and parked, but had difficulty finding the restaurant, which is located on the top floor of the building. The mall itself looks new but empty. Our biggest concern was, the restaurant may close-down in a couple of months due to lack of patronage in the mall.

The restaurant in use is nicely decorated, clean and bright. The flooring was tiled all the way (the reflection of the ceiling lights were pretty intense for me), including the banquet rooms. They have a small rooftop pool outside of the restaurant, that can be used for cocktail hour on a non-rainy day. Three small banquet rooms can be opened up into one big room, which is appropriate for our intimate reception. One big banquet room can accommodate up to 25 tables, whereas the common area (outside of the banquet rooms) can accommodate up to 45 tables. This suggested that if we decide to have our celebration in the banquet rooms, we might be able to listen to another wedding celebration/commotion going-on in the common area (which is why I'm opposed to sharing banquet halls with other married couples or walk-in guests).

Price wise is acceptable, considering the good food reviews we found from the internet.

Verdict: I believe this venue can be considered if we were having a big celebration. Although they do have a smaller banquet hall outside, the stench of cockroaches is unbearable, and my hubby saw a rat running in the area (eeks!) In addition, we can't accept the layout of the smaller banquet hall although it's more private compared to the banquet rooms in the common area.

    1. Hi, no complaints so far. People I know had their function in the big hall outside. In my opinion, u may hear muffled sound from inside, imagine a board wall separates u and a band playing outside. U shud go there and have a look, they do have other smaller rooms on its own as well. Hope this helps! :)
