SJ/Santa Clara area nesties, I need your help!
We had planned to get mil a gift card to a nice dinner out. It has to be a chain restaurant, unfortunately, so we can buy the gift card down here and mail it. We were thinking of Fleming's, but that's in Palo Alto, which I think is a bit far from them. (They're about a mile away from the SJ airport.)
Any other suggestions? Cheesecake Factory is kind cheesy (heh, pun) isn't it? I'm off to Google what's nearby them...
My favorite place on earth: The Amargosa Valley.

Glad you got it figured out. I just wanted to add that a lot of restaurants, even the non-chain ones, will often let you buy a gift card/certificate with a credit card over the phone. Then they can mail it directly to the recipient or to you so you can then mail it with a card (provided you do it early enough).
I do this all the time for my parents with a restaurant near Seattle because they love that place and have told us they'd rather get a gift certificate there on birthdays/anniversary/etc. than a gift. It's a nice place and not one they'd normally treat themselves to but they go if they have the gift card.
California Pizza Kitchen?
If I remember correctly, your in-laws live basically where I do...Mio Vicino is within walking distance...I'm sure if you called them they could mail a GC out.
Good call.
There is also Fish Market that is in Santa Clara (near us) and in San Jose near Oakridge Mall.
That's a restaurant?
I second this. If there's no traffic it's a really easy drive.
I'm recently obsessed with the Counter, but that's just a fun burger joint.
I've also been to Left Bank at Santana Row. We thought it was pretty good.
