Why did they ever close?!

I don't know that restaurant, but your post got me thinking that fondue restaurants in general aren't so common in the US any more. (Only the Melting Pot chain comes to mind off hand.)

Switching topics, does anyone remember the Magic Pan crepe chain? (I was a fan, though maybe I was too young to have developed refined taste buds.)
