How it's used
Often used to describe restaurants or venues that are completely booked out. It carries a sense of business success or high popularity for a specific event or establishment. While it functions as a noun, it is frequently used in a predicative way, similar to an adjective, to describe the state of a venue.
Examples
The restaurant is full tonight, how about we go eat somewhere else?

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 爆滿, which is more commonly used for general crowds or capacity in a broader sense, whereas 滿座 specifically refers to seating capacity.
