GREAT restaurants near Port Charlotte or Punta Gorda, FL?

I'm willing to go as far south as Ft. Myers and as far north as Sarasota, but would really love to find something in Port Charlotte or Punta Gorda.
I am going to be visiting some family and want to take them out to a wonderful dinner. Price isn't a huge issue, so long as it isn't too crazy (I'd say $40/plate would be my maximum so this shouldn't pose any issue in the area). I would like it to be a little nicer than the local pizzeria or diner.
If anyone has some recommendations, I would be really grateful. My husband's Aunt & Uncle have been a huge help recently and we really just want to thank them with a nice meal.
