What to cook for people who have very little exposure to good food

So a friend is coming over for dinner Sunday evening. She claims she isn't picky but I know that she hasn't tried a lot of things. I want to make something she hasn't tried but I don't want to get too crazy and make something that might be unapproachable.
I was thinking maybe Osso Bucco or something of the sort. Any other suggestions?

If it's truly a friend, experiment and get after it. No big deal. Pick something you would like and hopefully they will too.
If this is a date, I'd be a lot more reserved.

Just trying to play devils advocate a little (bc I have a friend like this who wont eat anything) are you sure she will even try what you make? I find that my friend like this wont even taste anything that isnt in his comfort zone, anytime he comes in town, I end up just cooking steaks bc I know he wont bitch and actually eat that.

Whatever you make, keep a frozen pizza handy just in case. I'm being serious, I cooked for this girl in college and didn't realize she was super picky. Ended up throwing a pizza in the oven and watched a movie. Never called her again, I can't be with a picky eater.

A lot of this is really contingent on whether you're trying to end the night inside of this person
