Several stone holes in the restaurant in Leshan, the province of Sichuan, contained traces of two saropods, a type of dinosaur who lived during the early period of Cretak, said Lida Xing, a paleontologist and associate professor at China's University of Geocence.
The Xing team confirmed the discovery Saturday using a 3D scanner.
The Saturnods, known for their long neck and tail, were the largest animals ever to walk on Earth. They could grow in the length of three school buses and were so heavy that the ground should have been tossed as they walked.
Two saropods that left their tracks were probably about 8m in body length, Xing said.
