About Slice Table
Slice Table is a after-work chicken & wings spot in Washington, DC, with a bright feel and counter-service seating with reclaimed wood tables. The kitchen leans into chicken & wings done well, milling their own flour in-house each morning.
The signature item to try first is the Chicken & Waffles, which has earned a loyal following. The rest of the menu rounds it out with options like Nashville Hot Sandwich, Buffalo Wings, Chicken Tenders, plus rotating specials that change with the season. Portions are generous for the price point ($$), and the kitchen is consistent — orders come out fast even when the place is full.
On a typical day you'll find neighborhood regulars who know the staff by name, especially around the lunch and dinner rushes. The bar pours old-school fountain drinks, hand-spun shakes, and bottled root beer. There is a thoughtful vegan section that goes well beyond just a salad. The dining room is clean, the music is at a reasonable volume, and the wifi works.
For ordering, you can text ahead to skip the line during the lunch rush. Expect a short wait at peak hours, but the line moves quickly. Whether you're new to Washington or a longtime resident hunting for a reliable chicken & wings fix, Slice Table earns a spot in the regular rotation.

Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The Korean BBQ Wings was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
I work nearby and stop in at least twice a week. The Nashville Hot Sandwich hits every time. Service is quick, the space is clean, and they take dietary requests seriously which I appreciate. Easy five stars from me.
Hidden gem. We were in the neighborhood for an appointment and stopped here based on a friend's recommendation. So glad we did. The Chicken & Waffles was unreal — clearly made with care. We're already planning our next visit.
Mixed feelings. The Buffalo Wings was excellent and the cashier was friendly, but my side came out cold and they were out of two of the things I wanted to order. Probably worth another try, but not the experience I was hoping for.
