    One of the best meals I've had! We had our anniversary dinner here and just loved it. We did the 4 course menu and the food was exquisite and the wine pairings were very thoughtfully curated. They also had a vegetarian option for the tasting menu. They even included a complimentary aperitif at the end of our meal as a celebration. Definitely recommend!

    A great dining experience! I had the 5 course with 1/2 glass wine pairings that brought out additional flavors, seasonal dishes, creative use of herbs. Service was excellent, due to the # of courses and full restaurant expect a well paced 2.5-3h meal. In and outdoor dining areas, rest areas accessible. Thank you Chef!

    Our dining experience at Réliva was absolutely exceptional. My husband and I were extremely fortunate to stumble across it during our time visiting Bruges on an evening where they had (unfortunately for them) a lot of cancellations for reservations and they were able to accommodate us. Normally they are fully booked so be sure to make a reservation! We did not plan well for eating here and were certainly not dressed well enough for such a lovely restaurant but they welcomed us kindly anyway. It is a completely local, family run establishment. Truly this is one of the best meals we have ever had. Every dish was detailed and impeccably delicious. The wine pairing was perfect as well. The service was wonderful. We will be talking about this meal for a long time to come.

    Food and service was great. Really impressive setup run by a husband and wife duo who manage to serve quite a number of people a really good fine dining experience.

    A really lovely evening with a delicious multi-course tasting menu. You can tell that the owners (who staff both the kitchen and front of house) put a lot of effort into the food and complementary wine pairings. Strongly recommend for a high quality, yet unpretentious, dinner experience.

    One of the best meals we have ever eaten! The mushroom dish may be my favorite dish of all time. Very kind service, relaxing setting. They accommodated my allergies well (gluten and dairy), I just had to tell them in advance when I made the reservation. They also ensured food was prepared well enough for my pregnant wife (the chef is also pregnant). They had a great non alcoholic drink. It was a long dining experience (3 hours), but we didn’t mind as the food was so good, and it was a lovely setting.

    I had dinner at Réliva a few days ago, with 3 friends. I loved everything about it. I can only warmly recommend you check out the restaurant for yourselves. The menu is diverse & well adapted to the time of the year. Service was fluent. We very much appreciated the different wine pairings offered by Eddy. We'll be back next month. I already look forward to it. It'll be interesting to see the career of this young chef.

    This was my first time eating a 5-course meal. We enjoyed the entire experience! The food was delicious and the wine pairings they choose were a fun treat. The lone waiter catered to the entire restaurant and provided excellent service throughout. Very impressive.

    Phenomenal range of dishes in the 7 course menu. The hare stood out. Service was attentive and helpful with the wine. Definitely one to recommend.

  • 5/5 ALFONSO MERINO M. 2 months ago on Google • 23 reviews New
    Very highly recommended site. Be careful, it is not a cheap place, you have to know what you are getting into. The price is at the same level as the quality, treatment and atmosphere, it is worth paying without a doubt. We were delighted, we knew what it was going to cost us and since it is their menu, it has pleasantly surprised us.

    Magnificent experience. Superb location, excellent cuisine and warm welcome, perfect evening!

  • 5/5 Rachel V. 4 months ago on Google • 21 reviews
    Wonderful meal at this family-owned restaurant. Lovely atmosphere that feels both cozy and contemporary. The seafood-focused tasting menu was delicious, creative and fresh. There’s also an option for a vegetarian meal. Extensive wine options that are all natural. Impressive operation - the only people working were the owner who was serving all tables and his wife in the kitchen, with no additional staff. Highly recommend a dinner here if you’re looking for a nice prix-fix meal

    We booked without realising just how special this was going to be. We had the 4 course set menu and everything was without exception utterly delicious and so so beautiful. It was a gorgeous evening to be out in the calm courtyard garden and we loved the playlist (great music choices!) We were stunned to learn at the end of our meal that the place is run by the just the 2 owners, with one being the chef and one doing front of house. They clearly put a lot of love and passion into everything they do.

    This was the best place we ate at while in Belgium :) The food was amazing and innovative. The atmosphere is lovely and the owner who also attended our table was very accommodating, friendly and a great host. We got the chance to say a short hello to the chef and just enjoyed the entire experience. Absolutely recommend !!!!

    Very successful experience. Chef Lien introduced me to new flavors and Cedric introduced me to delicious natural wines. To be repeated!

  • 5/5 James E. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely surroundings, simple and cozy, tucked away in a quiet street. The food was beautifully presented and full of wonderful flavours and variety. Cedric talked us knowledgeably through each dish and made perfect wine selections for each course. Not to be missed if you're looking for something a bit special.

    Having spent considerable time finding a place to have a special meal with my wife on our recent trip to Bruges, I feel vindicated to have chosen Rèliva. Dining at this restaurant was a beautiful experience; the location and setting are stunning, the service was informative and patient, and the food was spectacular in look and taste. Among many things to note, we appreciate the staff accommodating our menu combination requests and the delicious mocktail recommended by our waiter. An obvious 5 stars and highly recommend - hopefully we’ll be lucky enough to return. Check out the photos 🤤

    Second time here, and still very happy with the quality and taste of the food. Veggie menu is really really good. We highly recommend!!

  • 5/5 Jamal El Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Highly recommend this gem! The food was amazing with spectacular rich flavors and great wines to pair with each course. The friendly service and hospitality was also on point! A must if you are in Bruges!

  • 3/5 Corinna D. 3 years ago on Google
    Good organic food, good wine, beautifull location. The backyard garden ist very nice. The service war okay, could be better. From my point of view, unfortunately the dinner was not that creative then expected. Too little spice and sophistication. The wine was very good. The only sad thing was, that the evening was much too fast. There was no question if we would like to drink another glass of wine etc. We had the feeling, that you want to sell the table twice, and we should leave after the dinner was over. ;-( we were a bit disappointed as we expected some kind of slowfood.

    Surprising harmony of different delicious tastes not only for your taste buds but also for the eye! Great evening with delicious food and matching wines!

    We had a very pleasant lunch at Réliva. We got the 3 courses menu, and were able to mix an match following our our respective diets. Vegetarian friendly restaurant with a complimentary special soup before starter. The cheese platter specifically recommended.

  • 5/5 Mohamed Osama (. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is really awesome! The staff is super friendly, the terrace was closed but they put us in a nice table next to the window with a lot of sun. The food might be on the expensive side but it is worth every penny. Great flavors and fresh ingredients. This restaurant is a must visit!

  • 5/5 Lennart Van H. 4 years ago on Google
    Fantastic restaurant in the heart of Bruges! Also serves veggie and vegan options. Professional service and heavenly flavours!

  • 5/5 Guillaume Luong Trong V. 4 years ago on Google
    Calm, cosy and romantic place. The service is perfect and the food was delicious and refined. We had dinner in the backyard, it was beautiful and quiet. The house apero was a great surprise to start. We pursued our tasty journey with delightful fishes and ended with two amazing desserts to remember. 10/10 would come again.

👍👍 It was an amazing experience! First time I tried not a sweet waffle and I loved it! The waffles were just how you would expect them to be: crispy outside and soft and delicious inside. The one with strawberries was an insane blast of taste. I will come back here again. Recommended!
