The story
L'Eau Vive is a modern French restaurant in Namur, Belgium, at route de Floreffe 37, Arbre, 5170. The Michelin Guide awarded it two stars in 2026 for excellent cooking.
Anne and Pierre Résimont have run the restaurant for more than 30 years. Gault&Millau gave it 17.5 points in 2026, citing culinary precision and a timeless approach. The restaurant describes its gourmet table as a meal built on emotion and taste, kept deliberately simple.
The dining room is housed in a 17th-century mill, with the river running alongside. A romantic terrace puts diners close to the water, and the sound of the current is part of the atmosphere. Guests can also stay nearby, since the same team runs guest rooms at Medissey and The Cube.
