According to a gallery opened up by MMO Culture, the restaurant is called Demacia, named after the city-state from the game. The servers in the place are dressed up as characters in the game, like Caitlyn, Ezreal, and Twisted Fate. The menu includes deep fried scorpions, braised snake meat, and crab meat themed after League of Legends characters, as well as cocktails named after in-game potions and items.

About $160,000 was invested in the business according to a Chongquing local newspaper article. A representative for Riot Games told GameSpot: "This restaurant is absolutely not officially licensed by us and is purely fan activity."
