Seafood, one of Florida's favorite cuisines, is a reason why many travel to the Sunshine State and love living here. Last month, a popular travel website released a list of the best 15 seafood restaurants our state has to offer, and a restaurant here in Flagler County made the roster.

Trips To Discover, a website created for readers to find vacation destinations and ideas, included the Flagler Fish Company.

Flagler Fish Company has been serving fresh seafood to Volusia-Flagler county locals and visitors alike since 2005. registered with the "Fresh from Florida" program, the restaurant aims to serve fish, shellfish and produce from the Sunshine State. Guests can dine in and have "food that knocks your flops off" or take home fresh cuts of fish filets, shellfish, and sides to cook yourself with the restaurant's house seasonings.

Flagler Fish Company also serves cuts of prime beef and desserts made in-house.
