When two things "go well" together, this means that they match with each other, look good together, or they enhance the quality, appearance, or function of something when used together. Ex: Your shoes go well with your outfit. Ex: Milk goes well with cookies. This is also what the word "complement" means as described in this video. Ex: That tie complements your suit well.
