I think we're looking for something beyond, say, Cranium or Apples to Apples types of games, but something still accessible. She really enjoyed "Ticket To Ride" when we played it at a friend's house.

Any recommendations?

My wife sounds very similar, though she loves the party games like Apples to Apples.

Games I've had great success with for her and her friends: Ticket to Ride, Pandemic, Guillotine and Carcassone (though I don't like that one as much). And for a good gateway two player game she loves Lost Cities.
