"I have to admit that the place is like lost in time but in a good way very cozy and comfortable nice to have a good time with friends or family. The food is just exquisitely delicious the onion soup it’s one way trip, the rabbit was tender and tasty it’s a really good option if you are around make sure you have a reservation cuz I don’t think you can get a table there without a reservation the staff is just lovely and kind highly recommended place in Lujan"

Los mejores lugares para conocer en Luján
Si no nos molesta estar comiendo y que, mientras tanto, se pongan a cantar el Ave María de Lourdes, no podemos dejar de ir a L´Eau Vive de Argentina. Hay sucursales en cada continente, y es únicamente atendido por las Trabajadoras Misioneras de la Inmaculada Familia Misionera Donum Dei, que al igual que las primeras vírgenes cristianas, consagran su vida a Jesucristo. El estilo de cocina es “Cordon bleu”, platos franceses abundantes de gran calidad.
