Jacksonville Restaurant - or other - suggestions?

Hi ladies,
FI's dad and stepmom live in Georgia, close to the border. The nearest big city is Jacksonville. FI and I are looking for ideas for a gift for them. We're thinking a giftcard to a nice restaurant in Jacksonville, but that's our only idea. FI's dad and stepmom don't really enjoy dressing up and going out, but this is all we've got. Does anyone have any suggestions on casual but good restaurants or other things to do that we could get them a giftcard for?

Thanks.

    what about a place in Savannah rather than Jacksonville?  Maybe Paula's Deen's restaurant?  I can't think of a good restaurant in North Jacksonville which means they'd have to travel further into Jax.. which might be the same amount of driving time to Savannah anyway.  (and Savannah is SO amazingly beautiful!)

    I agree that Savannah would be a good choice :) There's so many cute restaurants there to chose from!

    If you want to get them a gc for a place in Jacksonville, you could do La Cena, if they like really good Italian...this is a nice restaurant, (but men can wear khakis and a button down if they want to) You could also do Capital Grille (towncenter) or Giovanni's(jax Beach)
    Or you could do something in St Augustine and they could make a weekend out of it there are some great restaurants down there ranging from 95 Cordova (fancy) to the Colombia which are both in the old city.
