Food: What “piqued” my interest in La Bucca was its rather incongruous claim to serve “the best wings in Ireland.” Hubristic overstatement or objective account of reality? Methinks it’s the latter. Delicately fried, then slathered in a piquante piri-piri sauce, these wings will lodge themselves into your memory… and maybe even your heart.
Drinks: Wide selection of beverages and tipples, including cocktails and “bubbles.” The staff are also unafraid to “keep them coming,” if you know what I mean.
Service: Did you ever meet someone who was so nice that you actually got jealous? Like you resented them for being so well-balanced? That’s every staff member here.
Decor: Sleek but understated. Notes of Wall Street, with muted greys and black leather. They also have one of those big windows into the kitchen so you can watch the chefs cook.
Soundtrack: Pleasingly eclectic selection that pushes the boundaries without becoming incongruous. We heard Linkin Park twice during our séjourne, and at one point I nearly choked on some pork belly because “Since You’ve Been Gone” by Kelly Clarkson came on.
Facilities: No idea.
Overall: if you’re looking for an exemplary dining experience in Ashbourne, you should “bucca” table here!
